Fabulous boutique hotel!!”

Style, staff and fabulous accomodation

none

Dwarika's is the best hotel in Nepal, no question. Consequently, it is extremely expensive by Nepalese standards. Agoda price were a third less than the rate quoted on the website and it was roughly. It was well worth the splurge. The hotel itself is beautiful, the evening bbq perfect, it's close to the centre but a peaceful haven and the only down side was that the pool was under repair and could not be used. Otherwise, i couldn't have higher praise for this hotel.

Complete treat”

Calm atmosphere, fantastic bedrooms

we stayed in dwarika on our last night of our trip and having travelled around nepal we wondered whether we were mad to have paid so much for a room as it is i'm sure without doubt the most expensive room available in nepal but within seconds of crossing the threshold, the calm relaxing setting and our fabulous room with exceptionally comfy bed meant we were in no doubt that it was a great decision. we ate in the nepalese restaurant and the friday bbq night (as they had no issue with us using the facilities after we checked out until we left for our flight at 9pm). thamel is a great area to find our feet when you arrive but dwarika (which is about 5/10 mins drive away from durbur square) is definitely worth the extra money as a treat and a nice retreat from the madness of kathmandu. only negatives were that i had a facial which i wouldn't have thought was worth the euro (again v expensive for nepal and nearly same as home)

An oasis of comfort and calm”

Amazing architecture and unique style, friendly staff, fantastic restaurant

Kathmandu is an amazing city but it can lead to sensory overload. Set on a busy street a little outside the centre of town the Dwarika doesn't look like much from the street but as soon as you walk through the doors you're transported into the most fabulously calm environment, perfect to recover from a day of haggling and sightseeing around the busy city streets. It's not cheap, but if you have a decent budget and value the opportunity to relax between adventures - this is the place for you.

I had a really nice stay at Dwarika. The staff is very attentive and friendly. The bar was a great place to hang out after a long day of sightseeing. The massages at the spa were wonderful.

A very large dissapointment ”

It looks very pretty, but not worth staying at

By all means visit for dinner and look around the lovely building but DO NOT stay at this hotel. This is a very expensive hotel that is very noisy with very tired rooms, expensive and very very slow wifi and expensive breakfast. The taxi drivers are in a racket with the hotel so that the cost of a taxi ride is 5 times more than an identical taxi ten feet from the hotel. The staff are beyond rude and from around 6am ever morning are making so much noise there is no point trying to sleep. I was here at Christmas and we could not stay warm in any part of the hotel.

Every single detail about the hotel.

There are two things that I did'nt like at all: 1- Breakfast should be absolutely INCLUDED and FREE with the room fees 2- Wi-Fi should be absolutely FREE for the hotel residents!

The hotel is like a living museum of wood carving whilst being very clean and comfortable. The staff were extremely attentive and friendly. The facilities were excellent. The restaurants had a good variety and the food excellent.

The wifi is not complimentary.

Haven”

Beautiful layout,and very relaxing. Katmandu is a very busy place,but once inside the Hotel,you would never know it. There is a pool several restaurants,and lots of social space

Would like to have been able to cool the room using A/C, but it was for heat only due to the winter season. But the weather was fabulous and our room soaked up the sun,so the room was quite warm.

All Show and no substance”

Authentic and traditional style Hotel with fabulous tranquil gardens amidst the huddle and busses of Katmandu.

The hotel seems to have no competition and think they can charge what they like. Not up to international 5 star standards. The hotel food was very unimaginative and tasteless and I love Nepali food with a price tag that verging on exploitation.

Overpriced and under performing!”

The hotel was beautifully decorated and the spa was fantastic.

We were encouraged to upgrade our room to a suite on arrival as our room wasn't ready and if we took a suite it would be available immediately. We took the upgrade which also enabled wifi and breakfast. We still waited another 30mins before gaining access to the room. The food was extremely expensive relative to the rest of Kathmandu and was nowhere near as good as I had eaten in various much cheaper restaurants around Kathmandu. I saw a rat run across the courtyard after dinner one evening which actually made me quite uncomfortable for the rest of my stay. We were woken up by a 6am call to our room which had been placed by the front desk in error and there was a mix up with the booking of our cars to go to the airport on the day of our departure. The breakfast buffet was equally average and I waited over 10 mins for eggs to be cooked at the grill! Generally disappointed with the whole experience and wished I had remained in the Holy Himalya which although not as beautiful was certainly far better value at a fraction of the price.
