The location is great, food excellent and the spa was fantastic. Whilst it may have lost a little of its original mountaineer charm from my last visit in the 1990’s ( big tour groups generally dominate the clientele now with fewer solo travellers) it still retains the peaceful oasis feel in the heart of Thamel.

KGH is like coming home… the garden is a beautiful and safe little paradise in the mid of Tamel. Also it is so convenient to have all kind of services, taxis and shops, atm’s and even a museum just there on the compound or around the corner and the personnel is just fantastic. This time I was really helped so much with some problems with my creditcard and they solved it. But everybody in this garden and hotel is just absolutely kind and cheerful. The atmosphere breaths travelling and hospitality.

The guesthouse totally outwent my expectations. The stuff is friendly and works good and fast (Restaurant). The Restaurant has healthy good and pricy food. There is a SPA, hairdresser, Yogaclasses and an art museum on the other side of the building. The rooms were so clean and very quite - even by being in the middle of Kathmandu! Also there is a lovely inner courtyard!

the location is very convenient in the middle of Thamel, yet it is quiet and peaceful. We have stayed in the hotel many times, I personally find the old rooms more spacious and comfortable than the new rooms. The new rooms are smaller and narrower, there is no space to put your suitcase, there are no hooks in the bathroom to hang the towels, the balcony is tiny. The garden however is an oasis in the middle of the chaos of Thamel. A place to come to rest . I would recommend the hotel, the service is good and the staff friendly.

I loved the location of the place. The room was pretty cute for friends to stay and the food was great. However I feel that it could be made a little better as some part of the food was a little blank for my Indian taste bud. Keeping that aside, i loved the food and the variety that was put on our table. The staff was really cooperative, be it the ladies at the reception or even the bell boy. I loved the ambience and everything here.

The Garden facing rooms at KGH are, in my opinion, the best rooms with a lovely view of the garden. The KGH breakfast is exceptional - such an amazing buffet of English/Continental/Nepalese/Chinese food - as much you can eat - and good coffee as well. The staff are all very friendly eg they helped me fit all my last minute purchases in my luggage prior to my flight back to UK. There are comfortable chairs in reception to spend time waiting for friends to arrive. The staff let me use the KGH phone for local calls FOC and the hotel stores left luggage FOC. There is a safe in each bedroom. The hotel feels safe with security on the both entrances to the property. The room had a heater; also a hostess tray with a selection of beverages.

Loved everything about The Kathmandu Guest House, it's no wonder it's so famous. A respite from the hectic Street life, yet in the centre of everything. Beautiful room with balcony ( I was upgraded) lovely lobby to relax in, beautiful gardens, outdoor and indoor restaurant. So many little places to relax in. The service is amazing, everyone makes you feel at home. Exceptional staff. Although it's quiet you are still only 15 mins walk from Durbar Square. Plenty of taxis right outside the gates to take you to Boudhanath etc. Travel desk in the hotel for longer trips. Beautiful gallery on site, rooftop bar, gift shops.

The courtyard is the best part of the property. A nice oasis from hectic Thamal. The staff works hard and do the best they can with such a quirky property.

I liked the environment of where the hotel was located. The lobby for the hotel was very nice and respectful. The room was nice enough, with a warm shower and everything I needed.
