Budget hotel so no more expectations

Good service and very central location

Room without hot water Be carefull, the hotel gate closes at 11pm. There is no door bell, so if you can't call the front desk, you could end up sleeping on the street!!

Friendly and helpful staff

Great service, very friendly and personal feel

hotel backpackers is handily located a stone's throw away from jp marg and all the shops and restaurants of central thamel, and the service is second to none. even though i didn't notify him of my arrival flight, hotel backpacker's owner was waiting for me at the airport and showed me to a legitimate taxi, which meant that i avoided being whisked away to another hotel not of my choosing by the airport's very persuasive-sounding taxi cartel. and once i arrived, the thoughtful service kept on coming. hotel backpackers has business cards with a map of central thamel on the back, and the very friendly manager promised that if i got lost, i could call and they would come and find me! this was very reassuring given how confusing it was out in the hustle and bustle of the streets, but thankfully i didn't need to take them up on it. i did however take the manager up on his offer to organise my bus to pokhara and to escort me in a taxi to the bus stop the following morning, and i really cannot express how impressed i was with this kind and thoughtful service.

The hotel was a real deception... old building, old furnitures, rust on the doors... clean, but not enough.. yellow bed sheets. Staff kind but not really professional, we waited hours to get water in our bathroom cause the guy forgot to switch on the pump and the day after probably the same, but we were leaving luckily...No generator and this is a problem for the several power cuts in Kathmandu
