    really good staff service
    outdated room lock

    The staff, especially Raj, provided really good assistance and personalized recommendations, making my stay lovely.

    The lock on the room door felt a bit outdated and could use an upgrade for better security.

    very nice service
    great breakfast
    dated appearance
    inconsistent wi-fi
    poor bathrooms

    The staff provided really good service, always ensuring requests were met with a warm smile. Conveniently located near local fruit vendors and restaurants, the breakfast offered a good mix of fresh yogurt, fruit, and pancakes. The overall appearance of the hotel felt dated, and certain areas, like the bathrooms, could use significant updates. Wi-Fi was inconsistent.

    outdated bathroom

    The location is fantastic, with easy access to the Kathmandu Durbar Square and local attractions. The staff are accommodating, always ready to provide helpful local tips and assistance. I enjoyed a spacious Super Beautiful Room with a balcony, giving me fine views of the city.

    The bathroom facilities could use some updating for a fresher appearance.

    The sun terrace was a great spot to relax and enjoy the view, while the bar area was fun. Just a heads up, the hotel could use some updates here and there, but it didn't take away from my overall experience 😊

    comfortable room
    excellent breakfast
    unreliable wi-fi
    outdated facilities
    insecure lock

    Choosing a Superior Single Room provided a comfortable stay with cleanliness and hot shower facilities. The breakfast was particularly excellent, with regional bread and a variety of options to start the day. The Wi-Fi connection was sometimes unreliable, and the hotel could benefit from a few updates in certain areas. The lock on the room door felt outdated and might need an upgrade for better security.

    A Cute Stay with Great Service

    Reminded me of family during our two-night stay, with staff always ready to cater to our requests. Breakfast was customized for us at odd hours. Remember to ask for a dental kit and enjoy the shared balcony views.
