Ottima scelta per visitare Bhaktapur
Pros:

Ottima struttura in una posizione perfetta, a due passi da Durbar Square e dalle principali attrazioni di Bhaktapur.
Lo staff è stato sempre gentile e disponibile. La camera era accogliente, ben arredata e confortevole. Ho apprezzato anche la buona colazione servita sul rooftop, un piacevole modo per iniziare la giornata.
Consigliato a chi cerca una sistemazione comoda per visitare la città.

Staff à première vue familial, très gentil, très aidant et souriant, un plaisir d'échanger avec eux, l'hotel se situe immédiatement dans le durbar square de Bhaktapur au cœur même des monuments à visiter.
Délicieux petit déjeuné pris en rooftop, très très agréable!

Rien!

A perfect spot in the heart of Baktapur. You’ll be sad you’re not staying longer
Pros:

The location couldn’t better - you are literally staying in a museum. The family and staff are wonderful. Friendly atmosphere, comfy rooms, breakfast on the rooftop.

Bhaktapur, en quelques minutes
Pros:

L’établissement est très bien situé ! Cependant certaines chambres donnant sur la rue peuvent être bruyantes.
La terrasse pour prendre le petit-déjeuner est magnifique.
Nous avons apprécié de pouvoir changer de chambre .

Cons:

Nous avons trouvé le personnel assez nonchalant, pas très avenant.
Le petit-déjeuner n’était pas à la hauteur des commentaires précédents.
L’hôtel était plein et c’était vraiment très bruyant.

Pros:

A nice and comfortable hotel, very close to the historic sights of Bhaktapur. Staff were friendly, helpful in arranging taxi pick-ups and drop-offs and arranging tours. They also provided boxes of breakfast, even though we left well before breakfast started. Highly recommended!
