Awesome place to stay”

Upon arriving to Kathmandu for the first time, especially after earthquake and the Indian blockades, we didn't know what to expect, however, Duddhi and his family made us feel like we were home from day one. Whether it was sitting by a fire outside, at the dinner table for a meal, or watching his young daughter performing one of here dances for us we always felt part of the family. There are things that you won't get in a big hotel; hot water when ever you need, running electricity 24hrs a day, room service. However, this home stay really does make you feel at home. And none of the things mentioned above ever felt lacking during our stay. The Blue Mountain is only a 5 minute walk from Thamel street shops and restaurants, so it's really easy to shop, find tourist activities, or go out for a great meal, whether local or international. We returned from a trip to Pokhara and didn't think twice about staying here for the remainder of our trip. Buddhi, his family, and staff constantly made us feel at home for the fist time in a long time on our 1 1/2 year journey away from home. Highly recommend stay hear to anyone who is considering staying in Kathmandu but wants a little distance from all the ruckus of the touristy lodging district of Thamel. Or anyone staying in Kathmandu, regardless of the circumstances. We will stay there again when back to Nepal, which we hope will be sooner rather than later. Thank you for inviting us into your home.

A friendly place to stay.”

There are 2 Blue Mountain Home Stays quite close to each other and owned by the same person and we stayed in both whilst visiting Kathmandu. Their location is good and only a short walk from the Thamel tourist area - a shopping paradise with many restaurants. Our rooms were clean and the friendly staff were always there to help or make a cuppa any time of the day. They can also organize taxis/buses etc if you wish. We can certainly recommend this place for the budget conscious or anyone else.

Homeb away from home”

"Home Stay"....That tittle says it all! From the moment you enter the gate, till the moment you leave, your made to feel at home and one of the family. From the beautiful garden to the great meals, from the great staff to the owner, what ever your needs they are there to fulfill them. Nepal is a country totally unlike any other country. There is no better way to explore it, then having Blue Mountain Home Stay as your base! Everything is at your fingertips. From tours, trekking, etc., to transportation, bookings etc., all handled inhouse tailored to fit your needs, budget, etc., There is so much beauty and wonder to explore and enjoy in Nepal. I will be coming back many more times, and I will be staying at Blue Mountain Home Stay!!! Thank You Mr. Buddhi, For such a beautiful stay!

A quiet oasis”

My experience at Blue Mountain was fantastic. Traditional Nepali dinner was served on the first night with the family. An unexpected delight. The hospitality of all the staff was truly exceptional. The room was very comfortable and the adjacent bathroom was clean and functional. It is much quieter than being in the centre of Thamel, yet it's only a five minute walk. Located nearby is the Everest Momo centre and just around the corner was a samosa stand with great food. I can not fault.my stay and have booked to return after my trekking is complete. No request was too much for the staff. They made.my time.in Kathmandu much more enjoyable. Have no hesitation in booking a room here. Thank you to all the staff. 5 Star.

We love this place! ”

We absolutely loved our stay at Blue Mountain. We were only going to stay 3 nights initially but we ended up staying 12 nights as we just loved it. The room was very comfortable and we slept perfectly in the bed. The bathroom was very clean and always had hot water. Breakfast, which was cooked by Kumar, was delicious - eggs with toast and a very tasty fruit salad. Location is very good, only takes five mins to hit the busy streets of Thamel. But by the far the best thing about this place is the staff. The owner and his wife are really welcoming people and we enjoyed a lovely dinner with them. But the main stars of this place are the boys that cook and help run the place. Kumar in particular was fantastic and we were sad to say goodbye to him. Happy and Robbie are also lovely boys and together the three of them work very hard. The cleaner is also lovely. We want to return here again and left with very fond memories.

The perfect place”

I have only good things to say about my time at Blue Mountain Homestay. I have never had such a wonderful experience at a hotel, hostel, or homestay. We have been traveling for four months now, and our stay with mr Buddhi and his family was hands down the best experience we've had. I would come back to kathmandu just to stay in the homestay again. The beds are large, the rooms are clean, the showers are hot, and the breakfast is great. Mr Buddhi and his family are unbelievably kind and accommodating - you will truly feel like you're part of the family. Kinder people do not exist - stay here!

Home away from home ”

This was infact my 2nd stay hete at tje blue mountain homestay. It's a little gem of an oasis. The owners are friemdly and invite you for a meal with the family, which is a nice touch. There is filtered water, tea and coffee available. The breakfasts are nice a nd filling, you get 2 eggs (how ever you like them) 2 pieces of toast, jam/butter, fruits and tea or coffee. The beds are comfy and big. The property itself is well maintained, clean and well spaced out. Location wise it's a 5minute walk from Thamel, which is a blessing as it can get very manic so it's nice being able to escape it but still have it on hand. The owners and the lads who help out can never do enough for you from making hot drinks to booking taxi's. I would definitely stay again and value for money you won't find any better. Stay you'll love it.

Perfect place just outside Thamel”

Loved my first stay at Blue Mountain Home stay, so I made sure to return when I came back to Kathmandu! Everyone there is extremely friendly. The home is very clean, beds are comfortable, and breakfast is a nice addition. Highly recommended!

Perfect value, perfect location”

My wife and I stayed for a few nights in March 2015, and have already booked to come back when we're in Kathmandu again later this month. After staying for a few nights in an old, dirty, small guest house in Thamel, we found this gem a few minutes away and changed the same day. It's new, clean, nicely furnished and decorated. Thamel is crazy, loud, busy...yuck. This place is only five minutes away (walking), but you feel like you're in a different city altogether. It's peaceful, the neighbors are friendly, the prices are lower for food and such (less tourists in the area, so we paid more "local" prices). THEN, they provide breakfast, free tea and coffee all day and one free "going away" dinner. It's a great value all around and we loved it. Oh, and if you're freaked out by the "homestay" part of it, don't be. It feels very much like a bed and breakfast place and the house is HUGE and spread out over 4 floors, so there's plenty of space to yourself. We highly recommend it!

Great return stay at blue mountain”

We returned to blue mountain after staying there previously whist in Kathmandu. The second stay was just as good as the first. The staff were equally as helpful and accommodating. The room and bathroom was very clean and again amazing value for money. We would stay at blue mountain on any trip to Kathmandu.

Nice place for a stopover”

We stayed overnight on way out of Kathmandu. There are two Blue Mountain homewtays and we stayed in a standard room with shared bathroom in the bigger house. Both home stays are away from the busy street so affords some peace and quiet. It is a short walking distance to Thamel and tourist bus stop, The atmosphere is warm and friendly and the rooms are generous sized and clean. There was no hot water for the shower, but we didn't raise his as an issue since we were only staying the night. Breakfast included fruit which was a welcoming change!

Friendly plae to stay”

We enjoyed our 2 nights at the Blue Mountains Home Stay. We were picked up at the airport by a friendly young man who pointed out places of interest on the way. The staff are helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The rooms are small but cosy and clean with warm duvets. The breakfast is plentiful and served when you want it on the lovely outdoor verandas. The cups of tea whenever you arrived back and the fruit bowl in the room were a lovely touch. The travel agent attached to the Homestay was wonderful and organised our ongoing travel and a driver for a day out of Kathmandu, highly recommend him. We were disappointed that we did not get the deluxe rooftop room we booked for the first night which meant we had to share a bathroom which isn't ideal. A friendly homestay in a convenient location.

A welcoming, relaxed homestay.”

We were looked after very well by everyone at the Blue Mountain, from the airport pick up (who waited patiently for us to get through the visa process) to booking our bus tickets to leave. The homestay is in a quieter residential area but within a few minutes walk of bustling Thamel. A lovely breakfast is served on the balcony every morning and tea and coffee whenever you want it. The staff are really helpful and friendly and our room was comfortable. We had a very relaxed few days staying here and I'm sure we'll be back.

Excellent place to stay!!!”

From the out-start I was made extremely welcome at this family run hotel. Buddhi, his wife, and their team run a wonderful place, very clean, with a good roof-top restaurant, only 5-10 minutes walk from the centre of Thamel. I'm back in India only 12 hours and I'm missing the atmosphere of Blue Mountain Homestay already. I'm already contemplating my next visit there. Thank you so much, Buddhi and Co. Jim

Beautiful homey stay”

The first time we booked with Blue Mountain we stayed at their first hotel and it was wonderful and so was the second hotel we stayed at the next time, however if possible try and get the first hotel. Both have wonderful rooms with hot showers, breakfast , filtered water access, good wifi and beautiful garden terraces. However at the second hotel we were woken up early every morning to the sound of spitting ( not sure if it was the staff or neighbours), kids crying , people yelling and blowing whistles and the shower took a while to heat up. The fruit served for breakfast also tastes like onions and we couldn't figure out why... I would still recommend staying here.

Excellent stay!”

Very good. We booked for 5 nights and ended up staying for a total of 17 nights. The breakfast is simple but excellent, the staff is great, friendly and helpful. The location is really 5min from Thamel, quite quiet at night, the rooms are very comfortable with excellent beds. Hot shower throughout all day. Plus you get warm drinks for free, which is great after arriving home at night and before going to bed. Will come back if I'm ever back to Kathmandu.

a wonderful stay. a great find”

I was so happy to find this place on my first try. The Blue Mountain was quiet and safe even though it is located in east walking distance of so many places in Katmandu. The staff was sweet and so helpful on many levels. I really felt like I was in a home away from home. Highly recommended particularly for singles and couples

Very clean more comfortable and quiet”

If you looking for budget clean comfotable hotel, Blue Mountain Homestay is one of the best choice just 10 mins walk from center of Thamel. All the rooms are clean., all staff are friendly and good take care.

Great Deal and more”

The Homestay is located 3mins to Thamel Main Street, in a very quiet block, ideal for who want stay close restaurant and shop without noise. The room is very big, ideal for couple but very affordable for solo too, no problem with sharing bathroom with the other room. I found this accomodation as great deal and I extended for my back in Kathmandu. The staff and family is very kind, I enjoyed the dinner and my staying. Also they helped me to sew my trek bag and provided for a breakfast at 6am before trekking, just the best! ❤️

Highly recommended!!”

I spent 1 week in Kathmandu after 8 months in Pokhara. Mr. Buddhi is very welcoming and hospitable. His staff is on point and are there to help you with anything you need. Spotless facilities and comfortable bed. Amazing view from the rooftop in this quieter area. Only a 5 minute stroll to the heart of Thamel. Nice sitting areas to relax. Good basic breakfast was included. Very relaxing stay before a long flight back to North America. This will be my new “go to” accommodation whenever visiting Kathmandu. Loved it!
