Hotels near Thamel Chowk, Kathmandu

"I booked this hotel because it offered airport pickup, and it turned out to be a really great find! The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, a nice blend of Nepali and Western options, which I personally enjoyed. You could also order à la carte, and their momos are absolutely, incredibly delicious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The staff's service attitude was excellent, and their overall demeanor was very polite. They'd greet you with a polite smile and help with your luggage. The owner speaks Chinese, which made communication very easy. I contacted the owner via WeChat through Ctrip to arrange the airport pickup, and everything went smoothly! The room was very clean, and there's a garden restaurant downstairs. It's located about 340 meters from Thamel, so it's close to the bustling area yet very quiet. Downstairs, there's a convenience store that accepts Alipay, a currency exchange, and a Kailas outdoor gear store, making shopping incredibly convenient. If I ever come back to Nepal, I'll definitely choose this place again! Not a shill, haha!"

"Excellent hotel, we really enjoyed our stay. The room was clean and bright. We asked for extra towels and they were brought to us without any issues. The breakfasts were delicious, and they even make individual coffees for each guest. The breakfast area is very cozy as well."

NepalI are so helpful, I love this country 🫶 Never Ending Peace and Love ✌️"

"My wife and I stayed for one night on March 31st. All the staff are friendly and made our stay enjoyable. We ordered several dishes at the attached restaurant and were completely satisfied with every dish. It took a few minutes for the shower hot water to come out, but the staff explained the details in advance so we could enjoy the hot water without worrying. We recommend this hotel."

"I love this hotel. Sparkling clean room & toilet. Spacious family room suits my family of 4. Warm hospitality & prompt service from the hotel staff Plus point, walking distance to Thamel tourist spot , shopping areas & new Hard Rock Cafe. And the hotel can arrange the airport transfer with one complimentary pick up. I did go to Mountain Flight to see Mt Everest, booked directly with the hotel - the greatest experience ever.

I couldn't ask for more. Receptionist Nita is sweet, they allowed my to keep my luggage for longer time after checked out. All is fine. Thank you. If I happen to be back to Thamel, definitely will stay here!"

"After several trips to Nepal, I finally decided to treat myself with a stay at the famous Kathmandu Guest House. So glad I did. So much peace, grace, charm and beauty .. and of course, the history!"

"Pros: 24-hour front desk service, early check-in available. It's a 10-15 minute walk to the center of Thamel. The hotel's exterior and interior decor are quite good. Cons: The hotel is located in an inconspicuous alley, so you need to pay close attention to the map to find its exact location. A security guard from the front desk met us and helped us with our luggage. The breakfast was excellent and delicious 😋. Summary: Overall, the hotel is decent, and the owner speaks Chinese.
