Friendly staff, clean hotel, great location.
Pros:

Really lovely staff working there, very friendly and helpful. A great location, being near to Boudhanath Stupa. Clean room with all the amenities we needed. And at a reasonable price too.

Cons:

It would have been nice to have a bit of a broader breakfast selection. There was a lovely lady making eggs for people, but, not eating eggs, I found myself wanting some cereal or something a little more substantial. Either way, still a positive experience.

Pros:

Huge clean room. Good location. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

Cons:

The woman serving breakfast didn’t speak English. Breakfast was the same fixed option each day, which could feel a bit repetitive for longer stays

Fantastic Hotel & Location
Pros:

The Little Buddha Inn is a fantastic little hotel, perfectly located close to the famous stupa in Boudhanath. You won't be disappointed if you're looking for somewhere to stay in this lovely, and slightly more peaceful area of Kathmandu. It's set just away from the major hustle and bustle of some other more congested parts of the city, on a reasonably quiet road leading down to the the pedestrianised stupa area. The hotel itself was just perfect for us. All the staff are extremely friendly and super helpful. It's kept spotlessly clean and tidy from top to bottom by the lovely and hardworking Rojina, who brightened our day with her beautiful smile when she greeted us each morning, as she prepared and served breakfast on the top floor everyday. Easily one of favourite hotels after five months travelling, and we hope return again one day!

Excellent choice!
Pros:

I can definitely recommend this hotel! The rooms are super clean, and very well lit! Sudip, the owner (and also a guide for trekking and other Nepal adventures), was super helpful and friendly during my two day stay. I arrived very late due to several problems at the airport, but he accommodated and help coordinate from the moment I stepped off the plane late at night. I chose the top floor room with the mountain view. But being that I have trouble sleeping and that the restaurant shares that floor, I decided to move to the second floor. They were very understanding with this. There's an excellent free breakfast included. The price is great. All of the staff are very warm and friendly. The location is perfect - 600m away from the big stupa, and therefore set apart from all of the hubbub, intensity, and overly-touristic feel around that beautiful ancient praying ground.

Cons:

No dislikes!

Pros:

Very comfortable large apartment with everything that you need and close to. The stupa. Staff were always friendly and very helpful. It is close to the airport too.

Cons:

One can hear the planes early in the morning. And yet it's great to be close to the airport. Ear plugs work.

Cons:

Девушка, которая готовит завтрак без стука ворвалась в номер сказать что завтрак готов, потом мы воспользовались парой ложек на кухне и к нам трижды пришли и сказали что мы не такой стороной положили вымытые нами после использования ложки, после та же девушка ходила очень недовольная.

Позднее мы попросили продлить наш номер на несколько дней больше из-за того, что сильно заболели - но в один из дней персонал сказал, что номер забронировали (они не учли мою просьбу о бронировании на более долгий срок и отказались отменять бронирование другого человека из-за их ошибки)

Однако когда я забронировала другой номер на букинге, персонал сказал, что этот номер занят и отменил бронирование.

Так же я однажды за все дни просила убрать в номере - но никто не пришел и не убрал.

Вот такое отношение в этом отеле вы встретите в гостеприимном Непале

Pros:

The room was clean, comfortable big, bright and airy. The view from the roof terrace was lovely looking over Boudha and a million prayer flags! The staff were kind, friendly and helpful. It was near shops and restaurants and a short walk to the Boudhanath Stupa.

Cons:

The hotel is close to the airport, as is all of Boudha, and is right under the flight path so it is really noisy from early morning with planes taking off.
