Makoto F. Solo travelers Japan, May 02, 2013
it was great start of the entire trip

centrally located, convenient, yet it can be quiet and relaxing, well established hotel
8.3
it was only one night stop in Kathmandu but I am glad I chose this place. I highly recommend this place: - can be very sociable with other travellers - centrally located - yet it can still be very quiet and calm once you step in to the court yard, which I loved - you can walk to anywhere
Mei C. Solo travelers Malaysia, April 26, 2013

Nerve-center of Thamel, Kathmandu

Location, service, setting

After traveling around Nepal, arriving at the KGH was a pleasure - quiet, attractive setting with rooms ranging in price from $2 (original dorm) to $160 (new luxury wing). Staff is friendly and attentive, fellow guests are diverse and interesting to watch, breakfast in outdoor garden setting is good (Illy coffee is extra! but a nice alternative to the Nescafe available in much of Nepal and with the complementary breakfast). This place really is the nerve-center of Thamel, the tourist center of KTM. Everything is within walking distance, yet the hotel itself is secluded and quiet. Front-desk staff are friendly and helpful. Several small shops on the premises sell souvenirs, maps, and even fine jewelry. The rooms vary according to price, but are all clean and comfortable; a $50 room with bath was more than adequate and looked out onto the central garden.
