Basic but functional”

An older hotel that needs some work but a good value for the money. For backpackers or budget conscious traveling, this is a nice place. Good breakfast and friendly hosts were the norm. The rooms were reminiscent of worn out college dorms, but functional.

Excellent”

Pros: Great staff, they went out of their way to help me with travel details, and had good local recommendations; good location just far enough from Thamel's craziness (though you can hear a nearby rock cover bar at night. Music ends at 11, and it's quiet after that); nice to have a hearty breakfast included; quite clean, especially the bathrooms Cons: not sure they always change the sheets between customers

The professionalism of the staff make this a great place to stay”

Basic room in a pretty good area. Room is nothing special but it's cheap and clean. What makes this hotel great is the staff. Very professional, attentive and welcoming. That level of staff isn't found in all hotels and it makes your stay in Kathmandu easy and comfortable

The Nice Environment & Warm Cleans & Friendly & Affordable Hotel”

The Nice Environment & Warm Cleans & Friendly & Affordable Hotel Agoda.com must be update the Address. Due with the incorrect street address ( Jyatha Marg) , the taxi hardly to find. Actually just a same Main Street in Thamel. - Thamel Marg. The Google Maps information is correct: Thamel Marg, Kathmandu 44600, Nepal. Morning breakfast Good. 3 beds Family room is big, more than i imagine. Lobby frontdesk service good and friendly. Opposite the Hotel main entrance, there has 2 taxi standby anytime. There're kindness & friendly. Transporting fee are affordable too. Highly recommended! 2016-8-3 yyee

Awesome cheapie”

I don't even know how this place is so cheap but not complaining. If you're on a budget this is where to stay in ktm, no question. I was in the dorm, it was spacious, no bunks, ikea style beds. The staff answered all of my million questions very patiently. Will return.

Nice place, no frills”

First the bad: breakfast was pretty basic and the rooms could have been cleaner, especially the bathroom. On the plus side, the price cannot be beat, staff were super friendly and the location is just off the main drag. Overall, great place.

great location, ok room, great people!”

I was happy with reliable pick up from KTM airport, nice guys met me had OK English and was nice secure arrival. The hotel had adequate not excellent room quality but I hasten to add that the attitude and effort of the staff made the place from standard quality into excellent quality. They made a VW feel like a Porsche! The breakfast included every morning was both generous and well cooked with nice hot drink, setting me up for a good few hours walking into the day, so no need food really until evening, which meant I could focus on touring not food. This is a 'hidden' gem of a place and cannot recommend highly enough - I had friends in other places who paid much more, for much less benefit. Choose this hotel and you will not regret is my suggestion.

Cheap and nice hotel”

The hotel is nice. Very cheap and still offers good conditions. The problems are the hot water (absent almost all the time) and electric sockets (that don't hold the plug), but these two things seem to be the same for all Nepali hotels I have visited, and can be understood as a general problem for the country. The location is convenient, it's in Thamel but the hotel is located on the small backstreet, so you can breath freely.

Is this the best value hotel in Kathmandu?”

I stayed in 3 hotels in my time in Kathmandu(the other 2 were luxury ones)and I enjoyed staying here the most by far. As a budget hotel it does not have the facilities of other hotels but it more than makes up for it with atmosphere and service. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful with sightseeing organised for you. The breakfast is well cooked and sets you up for the day.The sights and sounds of Thamel are right on the doorstep but it is in a quiet location except for the excellent live music from a nearby bar which can be heard in the evening in some rooms until 11pm. I enjoyed excellent nights sleep throughout my stay. Computers are available for guests to use. I can highly recommend this hotel and look forward to staying again in the future.

Good place, cheap, friendly and very helpful”

Had a great time at this hotel and will be coming back. I'm currently doing the Everest base camp trek, after which I'll be doing the Annapurna base camp trek followed by the Chitwan National Park, including accomodation, transport, guides and 3 meals per day. He even calls the guide over here to check everything's ok. Whatever I didn't need to bring on this trek I stored at the hotel. Everyone's really friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a great location in Thamel, at the end of an alley. The only draw back is a nearby venue where they have a live rock covers band every night, which is quite loud. Not much bother for me, however, as I sleep pretty much through anything. There's hot water 24/7, the room was basic but comfortable and the price, well, I cannot argue with that!

nice staff, good big room and central, but quiet”

We booked this hotel in advance and the hotel picked us up from the airport(for free). We had some nice days at the hotel and travelled further trough nepal. After a few weeks we had to go back to kathmandu so booked this hotel again. Because i got sick, it wasnt possible to be on time in kathmandu, so we came there a few days later. It was no problem at all, however they were full. It was possible to stay in the hotel next to silver home. Because we allready booked, we didnt had to pay. Unfortuanetly, the room in the other hotel was not that good as the room in silver home, but we liked the service.

Ok for the price paid”

The room for two persons is big, but the cleanliness standard of the bathroom/toilet can be improved. Pillow case covers are also stained. As my room was on Level 2, the wifi reception is still good. Hotel has own water source and even had hot water for shower.

Good value hotel”

We stayed in this hotel for 3 nights, hotel lication is super good, located in the center of thamel, Happening place in the city. Hotel reception and staffs are really helpful too, the will try to help you to arrange your itinerary, it is absolutely fine if you want to do it your own. They just want to serve you better. Will definitely stay there again next time !!

Good, cheap hotel”

I stayed 24-28 Dec 2012 and found HSH to be pretty nice. It required some flexibility- of course the room was different (details below) and I had to work out my travel package. A lot of services they claim (tv, room service) aren’t there, but when you’re paying approx $8 USD a night, it’s a great deal. And the showers were HOT. I dealt with the front desk person, the owner, & tour coordinator Mr. Ram. I booked a standard room a few days in advance online. The front desk guy took me to 201 which had a nice large bed and attached bathroom, both of which were clean. He told me I would have to change rooms the next day and this was an upgrade. On my second day, when he wanted to move me, I spoke to the owner and said I wasn’t complaining about the lack of balcony, tv, hairdryer, etc. but I wanted to stay put (other reviews have mentioned mold &I didn’t want to risk it), and the owner said that was fine. My bed has a thick comforter and the bathroom, while small, is perfectly fine. The water smells a little, but showers have been steaming hot at 6pm and lukewarm at 10pm. There are rolling blackouts (seems to be mostly during the day?) and the internet is reliable on the 2nd floor, but not good enough for skype. I heard the dorm on the top floor doesn’t get wifi. I’ve had eggs, toast (I had to show them a printout that said breakfast incl) and sweet and sour vegetable soup, all fine. My phone didn’t work despite letting them know several times, so I wouldn’t call it room service. I booked a ride to Christmas services at a Catholic church & sightseeing around to 4 major Kathmandu spots (extra costs for entering temples around Kathmandu paid by me, about $5 each). We also planned 2 one-day hikes, Naragon and Srivinpura National Park (unimpressive). Total damage $110 USD including driver, hike guide, lunch on the hike days. Transportation on the hike days turned out to be walking a mile to a crowded tourist bus, but it’s not like I could have easily found it on my o

Lovely large rooms in hotel with bathrooms in room”

This is a great hotel but it is quite hard to find so use the free pick-up service from the airport. The rooms are very large compared to other hotels in Kathmandu however the bathrooms are wet-rooms and could do with a make-over!! Everything was functional and it was quiet at night. The staff were very friendly and very helpful so I think this is a great hotel for your stay in Kathmandu. I would highly recommend a trip to Pokhara as you can organise bus tickets at the hotel and the bust stop is a 15minute walk from the hotel.

Budget, Small Hotel with Warm Staff”

i had a comfortable stay. the hotel is small but the rooms are big. the hotel and the room were not very clean, but manageable. the breakfast, inclusive in the tariff, was good. there is free wifi but sometimes does not reaches to the rooms beyond the ground floor. the lobby is small but can seat around 6 or 7 people.

This hotel is very convenient. The best choice in Thamel!”

Staff is very friendly. Good location in the middle of Thamel. Nice rooms at a cheap price. Silver Home is the best choice.

Beste and Cheapest in Kathmandu!”

Very friendly staff. Nice rooms. Good location. Everything is good!

2nd night stay”

they upgraded my stay to a bigger room first 2N

Very good”

This is ok if you are on a serious budget and only need a couple of nights accommodation. The staff are very friendly. The room was very cold and damp and there was a crack in the window and a gap under the door allowing a draft. (It was warmer outside). The room was not unclean, however the bed did not have a full sheet on it and the blankets were very tired. The shower had mildly warm water after waiting for it to warm up for a long time.
