We really enjoyed our stay Stupa View Inn ,particularly regarding its location and staff. Stupa View Inn offers a comfortable and welcoming stay, for travelers seeking a quieter alternative to the bustling Thamel district. Its proximity to the Swayambhunath Stupa (Monkey Temple) is a major draw, allowing for easy access to this significant cultural site. We love frequently highlight the exceptional helpfulness of the staff, who contribute significantly to a pleasant experience. The inn's rooftop terrace is a standout feature, providing stunning views of the surrounding Kathmandu Valley. Additionally, the availability of reliable Wi-Fi great for WiFi junket and hot showers is consistently praised. The location, while peaceful, remains conveniently accessible to other areas of interest. emphasize the good value for money, free drinking refill center ,travel desk for ask question and free cup of hot tea .bed is comfy and beautiful Colour and beautiful local art and mountain photo in room.

Location is in a quiet area, it was “just like home” with Roshani and Sugat. Nice to return to the quiet at night, away from the business of other Kathmandu areas. Roshani and Sugat are both very accommodating and kind. Was easy to communicate via whats app before and during stay. An short walk to main road and from there, walk, (or taxi) to many of the points of interest in and around Kathmandu. Roshani and Sugat were very helpful with directions, banking, SIM card, use of taxi app, places to eat and see etc etc. Lovely hosts!

Mums Homestay is the best accommodation I have in my first trip to Nepal!!! The location is away from the busy center, but very near to the Monkey Temple, walking distance:) . Also, you can easily move around with Pathao app, no big trouble. The beautiful house is located in a quiet residential area, which just few steps to many eateries and groceries around. The room I got was spotlessly cleaned, supper comfy mattress and a cute balcony. Hot water was excellent tooo!! What i love most tho is the hosts, Mira, her husband and her fur baby are all so warm and lovely. She made me breakfast and dinner, which were all very yummm. They also recommended me some good local restaurants and they were all spot on. I enjoyed conversations with them alot and you learn abit more about amazing Nepal. Thank you so much for the wonderful accommodation and hospitality!

We had a wonderful stay at Rokpa Guest House! Our room was spacious and comfortable, and very clean. Staff were attentive, kind, and helpful and arranged an excellent driver for us on short notice. The breakfast was bountiful and delicious and the restaurant staff were all excellent. We also very much enjoyed the rooftop cafe with a view of the stupa! An excellent place to stay in Bouddha!

I recently stayed at Zen Nest during my trip to Nepal, and it was an incredible experience. The location is perfect—right near Thamel and Basantapur, making it easy to explore the city's vibrant nightlife. The staff were exceptionally friendly, and the room was clean and incredibly comfortable. I had an amazing time and will definitely be returning to Zen Nest on my next visit!

    The homestay is located in a very nice residential area, fully served. The room was big and the view over the mountains was stunning! The place also has a lovely rooftop where we had a beer with view 🙂 The very plus of the stay is absolutely the kindness of the host family ♥️, smiling, kind and always helpful with local advices about where to go and where to eat. They also managed to give us special trekking advices. We are definitely going to come back, as soon as we will be in Kathmandu again to catch up our flight.
