Lovely heritage building stay. An oasis near Kathmandu Durbar Square.
Pros:

Top tier location! It's literally adjacent to the popular Kathmandu Durbar Square, and yet just removed enough to remain peaceful throughout the day. You can walk to Thamel in about 15 minutes. Nights were quiet up until sunrise when the area springs to life, so bring earplugs if you need to sleep in. The building is old yet beautiful. The rooms were large and felt clean. We really enjoyed the dining areas, both the courtyard and the eatery in the front building. Their food is good, and their cappuccinos are on point!

The staff members, especially the younger ones who we interacted with most, were very friendly and considerate. We were helped with supplies, printing documents, and reserving early morning taxis.

(There were some mixed reviews here about the showers, so I'd like to comment about that. We went in with the expectation that this is indeed a heritage building with old plumbing. That being said, it was fine! The shower sometimes took a long time to heat up, like on the scale of minutes, but it worked.)

Cons:

I probably missed this in the description, but guests should plan to pay in cash. Stock up on rupees at the airport, since credit card payments will incur a higher charge.

Wonderful stay in the heart of Durbar square
Pros:

Wonderful location, with an entrance directly out to Durbar square. The building had an original design and rooms were well equipped and spacious. The staff were so friendly and attentive and welcoming. The food in the restaurant and breakfast was great. We would stay here next visit to Kathmandu.

Cons:

Hot water for showers a little tempermental depending on solar panels.

Pros:

L'accueil par un personnel complètement à l'écoute, disponible, souriant.
L'emplacement idéal tout près de Durbar Square.
L'hôtel, lui-même, tout simplement magnifique, des fleurs, des plantes, de belles salles, une cour intérieure où l'on peut lire, se relaxer, consommer. Très propre.
Deux immenses chambres, décorées avec goût, propres.
Le restaurant sur place est un plus, après une journée intense. C'est excellent et bien servi.
Petite cérémonie à notre départ.
Un séjour parfait.

Nice stay
Pros:

Beautiful building and room, great location, the courtyard and view from the terrace was amazing looking over Durbar square. The restaurant food was really good. Staff were friendly and arranged me a taxi at 6am.

Cons:

I think the place is too expensive for what it is. As a westerner the price is below what I would pay in Europe for somewhere like this. But after going to other places in Nepal the price is just too high even for a nice room. I think if you are planning on spending more time in the property it is more worth it instead of just using it as a base.

Geniale Lage, dieses Mal aber doch mit Mängeln
Pros:

War jetzt das 2. Mal dort und habe mich grundsätzlich wohl gefühlt, sonst wäre ich nicht wieder für 1 Woche dort abgestiegen. Die Lage ist genial! Nur wenige Meter vom Durbar Square entfernt. Das Angebot mit der Halbpension fand ich gut, das Essen war auch meist in Ordnung. Tagsüber ist es sehr laut, aber ab ca 22 Uhr dann bis früh morgens sehr ruhig, die Straße ist dann wie ausgestorben.

Cons:

3 Sachen waren dieses Mal nicht akzeptabel weshalb ich überlege ob ich beim nächsten Mal wieder dort absteige:
1. Der Preis war beim Buchen in Dollar angegeben und wird dann vor Ort in Rupien umgerechnet. So weit so gut. Inakzeptabel fand ich aber das der Manager dieses Mal bar bezahlt werden wollte und als ich dies nicht wollte hat er ca. 4 % Aufschlag für die Zahlung mit der Kreditkarte verlangt.
2. Das Internet ist, außer im hinteren Bereich des Restaurants dieses Mal unterirdisch schlecht gewesen. Im Zimmer hatte ich über Stunden manchmal überhaupt keine Verbindung bekommen.
3. In der letzten Nacht bin ich von irgendwelchen "knappernden" Geräuschen mehrere Male aufgewacht. Ich habe eine Weile gebraucht bis ich bemerkt hatte was da los war: Ich hatte in meinem "offenen" Koffer eine kleine Schachtel Pralinen (original verpackt und verschweißt) über die sich eine Ratte hergemacht hatte. Die muss wohl über einen Spalt bei den Fenstern ins Zimmer gekommen sein. Die Schachtel war dann leer und die Nachtruhe hinüber. Das Zimmer lag im 2. Stock, aber Ratten können ja gut klettern und haben wohl offensichtlich einen auerordentlich guten Geruchssinn.
