“This hotel strikes a balance, placing you squarely in Thamel's vibrant heart while providing quiet, clean rooms to retreat to; I particularly appreciate the garden, a tranquil spot for breakfast. I think it's the attentive staff, from reception to room service, that truly elevates the experience. A solid choice, in my opinion, for exploring Kathmandu.”
