2-Star Hotels in Bagmati, Nepal

"The first image shows the entrance. It was a bit hard to find at first, but you open it by turning the handle. The doorknob is right where the person is standing. The room was relatively clean, but as you can see in the fifth photo, there's a gap under the door, so bugs were quite common. I'm not sure if they were mosquitoes or bed bugs, but I got bitten in three places in the room on the first night. I didn't get bitten after the second day, so maybe they weren't bed bugs...? There was a power outage from late on the first night (the lights worked, but plug-in items like phone chargers and fans stopped working). Since there was no air conditioning, the fan stopped, and it was hot and humid due to the rain. There were no power outages on the second day onwards. For breakfast, you could choose from about four different side dishes. The menu varied slightly each day. Milk tea and coffee were available, as well as bread, yogurt, and fruit. While the bugs and power outages were a bit of a bummer at times, we got fresh water every day, and most importantly, there were super friendly cats, which alone made it a fantastic stay. They were seriously adorable and often meowed near the room."

"Sara's Backpackers Hotel is really OK. The location is practical, you can get to important places QUICKLY like the Pashupatinath Temple or the Garden of Dreams. The rooms are clean, but a bit simply furnished. WIFI IS free, but sometimes a bit slow. THE staff is super friendly and helps with everything, whether it's excursions or questions about the area. Breakfast is OK too, but not super special - just typical of the country. The rooftop terrace is a real highlight, a nice view to relax. There are also bikes to rent, which is cool. A few things could be better, e.g. the beds are a bit hard and the showers could be more modern. Overall, though, it's good value for money. Would come back if I'm in the area! ⭐⭐⭐⭐"

"Great hotel location! The narrow streets are charming and authentic. You can relax and dine on the rooftop!"

"Warm Hospitality, Great Location, and Incredible Value I recently stayed at Hotel Pamelo House during my visit to Kathmandu as a tourist, and I must say it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The hotel has five floor of the building and does not have a lift, which might concern some guests at first. However, the staff completely erased any worry I had about this. The team here is very, very polite and respectful, and even if you are staying on the upper floor, they will personally ensure your luggage is carried up and down by themselves. Not once did I feel burdened or inconvenienced, because they genuinely took care of everything with a smile. The test staff members are extremely courteous and always ready to help. Whatever you need, they will simply provide it without hesitation or complaint. Their warmth and willingness to serve truly made my stay memorable and comfortable. It felt less like a hotel and more like staying with people who genuinely care about your wellbeing. Another fantastic feature of this hotel is that they have the facility to arrange trips for guests. Whether you want to explore the city, go trekking, or plan a day tour, the staff can organize it all for you. The location of Hotel Pamelo House is essentially perfect. There are lots of shops near the area for food and shopping, and you will find almost everything you need right nearby. The Thamel Market is just a walking distance of about 750 meters away, and Kathmandu Durbar Square is also only around 800 meters on foot. This made exploring the city incredibly easy and convenient for me. Overall, Hotel Pamelo House is a great place to stay. The combination of polite staff, convenient location, trip arrangement services, and nearby amenities makes it an excellent choice for any tourist visiting Kathmandu."

"The hotel is 1 km from the bus stop. After booking, I received two emails. One of them provided some important information. I had a phone number, so I called the hotel to pick me up after I got off the bus. Within three minutes, they arrived on a motorcycle. The room was okay—not too picky at this price point in rural Nepal. The hot water was good, and shampoo, towels, soap, and toothbrushes were all provided. You had to ask the owner for a hairdryer and hot water. The service was friendly and welcoming. Overall, it was good. However, the hotel is 1 km from the main street, which can be inconvenient for dining out. Be aware of this when booking. Also, the cheaper rooms don't have air conditioning, but they charged me an extra 40 RMB to get one with air conditioning."

"This hotel offers excellent value for money. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Breakfast is included, which is a great bonus. The service is outstanding, especially considering the affordable price. I had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and budget-friendly place to stay."

"A very nice quiet place with very kind and welcoming staff"

"The service is really nice, with this kind of price I think it’s truly worth it, especially, I enjoy the food a lot! But for a family, the space is slightly small, also, not a bother for me but I just a reminder ,not much but you can still smell the cigarette in the room"

"Although it was supposed to be the rainy season, we were fortunate enough to see both the sunrise and sunset. From the rooftop, other hotels fade into the background, offering an almost 360-degree panoramic view. The staff offered to take us to the viewing platform for 2000 rupees, but we found the rooftop to be sufficient, so we didn't take them up on it. The breakfast buffet style seems to vary depending on the number of guests. On days with many guests, it's self-service, while on quieter days, the staff serve you. (On our first day, there were many guests, so it was self-service. On the second day, there were fewer, so the staff brought our food. If you want more, just ask the staff.) We were immediately served warm chai upon check-in. It takes a while for the food to arrive, but I suppose it's understandable if they're making everything from scratch. (We ordered at 2 PM, and the food came at 3 PM.) There are other more expensive hotels in this area, but I believe Peaceful Cottage is the best."
