Wonderful hotel with outstanding staff care.
Pros:

The location is great for a young tourist who is looking forward for cultural heritage at daytime and bars by the evening. The district is safe and has its own atmosphere. The hotel is charming, clean and staff is extremely helpful and polite. I met the highest level of hospitality and exceptional service. I also liked the inner garden where you can sit at the evening with a drink or a dinner. I can highly recommend this place.

Great staff; great bar/restaurant; great location. Alas, six floors and no elevator.
Pros:

The staff - exceptionally helpful always trying to meet customer requirements. I needed an extension board and someone promptly went to the market and bought one for us to use. Some other examples too.

Cons:

No elevators even to the 6th floor.

The balcony of junior suite looks on a sorry dismal lane.

Pros:

The morning breakfast was superb both quality and quantity. The hotel's location in Thamel can be a bit noisy at night but very convenient to find all kinds of shops, restaurants, and cafes.

Cons:

The only thing that made our stay a little bit miserable was that the A/C in our room stopped working and couldn't turn on for the entire night so we had to open windows to let the air (and noise) come in. The staffs were trying to help but there was not much he could do. The best answer we got was that the electrician would come in the morning!

A peacull island in the heart of Kathmandu
Pros:

Very nice boutique hotel, in the heart of Thamel. The hotel itself has an isolated courtyard. Staff is very helpful and friendly. These is like an "island of quiet and peace" in the middle of Kathmandu. They can arrange car with a driver and a tur guide - which we used - was great.

Cons:

The hotel has no elevator - so make sure your room is on a reasonable floor. Other than that, our room did not have a desk - which would have been nice to have.

Gehobenes Hotel mit tollem Innenhof in Thamel
Pros:

Super sauber modern
Konstant Warmes Wasser
Unheimlich bequemes Bett
Viel Platz
Bemühtes Personal
Die Möglichkeit täglich morgens und abends an Yoga Stunden teilzunehmen

Cons:

Mir hat ein bisschen das Informationsmaterial zu den angebotenen Leistungen (Spa, Frühstück, Yoga, Fitnessraum) gefehlt. Es ließ sich aber jederzeit sogar per WhatsApp an der Rezeption nachfragen.

Pros:

Ligging was top, alles op loopafstand.
Kamer was ruim, goed bed en een nette badkamer.

Cons:

Als ouder stel is het best jammer dat er geen lift aanwezig is.
Verbleven op de 4e verdieping en zonder lift is dat redelijk ongemakkelijk.

타멜거리에서 괜찮은 가성비 숙소
Pros:

층마다, 계단마다 있던 예술품들로 눈이 즐거웠음. 방도 넓은 편이어서 두루두루 편했음. 시스템에어컨도 신기했고. 체크인때뿐만 아니라 체크아웃하는 시간 맞춰서 직원이 캐리어 들어다주는 것도 너무 상냥했음. 위치도 타멜거리를 즐기기에 너무 좋았음. 호텔 1층 레스토랑도 추천함! 조식도 좋았고 저녁에 간단한 요리와 술한잔 하기에도 편하고 좋았음.

Cons:

엘베가 없고 계단이 높은편이라 높은 층을 배정받으면 힘들것같음. 그리고 내가 묵었던 객실만 그렇겠지만, 테라스가 아닌 창문쪽에서 톡톡 소리가나서 보니까 비둘기.. 근데 사람무서워하는지 커튼 확 걷었다고 밖에 비둘기가 떼로 모여있다가 날아갔다가 옆건물에 붙어있다 다시오고 날아가고 그랬음.. 그쪽 커튼을 하루동안 일부 걷어두니 다음날부턴 거의 안오긴함. 그래도 비둘기 싫어하시면 좀...
