Pros:

El hotel tiene una excelente ubicación y un fantástico personal, atento y preocupado. Si viajas sola o solo mujeres este es un excelente lugar. Además, siempre están dispuestas a ayudar y tratan de darte una solución a lo que necesitas.
Las camas son muy cómodas y en general todo está muy limpio. Las habitaciones de buen tamaño y con instalaciones nuevas.

Cons:

La humedad de la habitación. No había calefactor, y llegaba poco sol. Sentimos mucho frío. Fuimos al final del invierno.

Perfect location but far too cold in January for comfort.
Pros:

Location was perfect. Bed was comfortable.

Cons:

The room was very cold as there is no heating at all. With some more attention (and a heater) this hotel could be great.

Cozy and comfortable.
Pros:

The accessibility and the spaciousness.

Con il nostro gruppo di amici, 22 persone, abbiamo passato una notte al Karuna Hotel. Ayush e tutto il suo staff sono molto gentili e disponibili. Le camere sono nuove e molte curate in tutti i dettagli. Colazione ottima! Consigliatissimo.

Efficient, clean and comfortable stay
Pros:

It's of great value. In my opinion you get more than you pay. The hotel is centrally located and tugged away in a small alleyway, so it's not as noisy as most hotels in the old town center of Patan. Not many options for breakfast but if you are not staying for long, it's efficient and healthy. The hot water and wifi are both stable - can't say the same for most hotels in Nepal!

Cons:

While most staff were friendly, respectful and helpful, the night shift staff was unfriendly to us. He was very rigid, slow in service and invaded our personal boundaries, such as trying to read our emails while we worked in the lobby.

The larger double room offering "landmark view" doesn't really have any view.

Convenient, but misleading experience
Pros:

The location is convenient, being close to the famous Durbar Square, though it’s frustrating that you have to pay to walk by it, especially when you’re staying nearby (perhaps it can be improved by negotiating with the authorities). This forces you to either sneak past the guards or take a longer route.
The room is clean but somewhat small for the price. However, it comes well-equipped with essentials like toiletries, a hair dryer, and towels.
Breakfast is simple but ok; however, I found it misleading when they mentioned at check-out that coffee was complimentary. If I were expected to pay for it, this should have been clearly communicated beforehand rather than presenting it as a "discount" on what I thought was included with the breakfast price. On a positive note, the staff is friendly.

Cons:

I was surprised to learn that my booking was canceled after check-out, citing an issue with my card, even though I stayed at the hotel and paid in full by card. Fortunately, I can still provide a review of my stay.
Be aware that there is no elevator, and the stairs are quite steep and narrow, so keep this in mind when deciding whether to book here.
