Pros:

Pěkný hotel s výbornou polohou. Milý a ochotný personál. Snídaně jednodušší ale dobrá. Ze střešní terasy je v případě dobré viditelnosti možné vidět i Himálaj. Byli jsme velmi spokojeni a po naší cestě Nepálem jsme se vrátili zpět před odletem. Pokoj byl velký, čistý a tichý.

Cons:

Všechno bylo v pořádku.

Hotel bien situé mais prestations passable
Pros:

Hotel bien situé dans le centre de Thamel et dans une impasse ce qui evite le bruit dr la rue
Plein de boutiques et de restaurants a proximité.
La place Durbar square a 15 mns a pieds en se faufilant dans la circulation
Climatusation reversible

Cons:

Le petit dejeuner n'est pas satisfaisant, la nourriture n'est pas bonne
La chambre est basique, et est petite
Les oreillers sont sales
Pas persinnel pour nettoyager et faire les lits tous les jours

Przystanek podczas zwiedzania stolicy
Pros:

Bardzo dobry hotel w stolicy. Miła Pani z obsługi - mogliśmy zostawić nasze bagaże na recepcji i iść zwiedzać miasto. Śniadanie, z którego idzie wybrać coś dla siebie. Czyste pokoje (nie trzeba się prosić o ręczniki). Warto się tam zatrzymać.
