The staff from the doorman to the front desk and wait staff are attentive and kind. The location is super on a quiet lane just outside the heart of Thamel. easy to get around to all the sites and places in the city. really a first class experience for the money. you'll be happy you stayed!

Best Hotel I stayed at in Napel. ”
I stayed twice at Hotel Thamel while in Kathmandu. It was the best hotel I stayed at while in Napel. I stayed at about six other hotels, Thamel was the best. So close to everything right in Thamel. They have great staff. The owner of the hotel works onsite at the hotel, I was told by some one who knows him he is a very good person.

Attentive staff with good clean and large rooms”
The rooms at Hotel Thamel are basic and clean, but the winning points for this accommodation sit with the helpful and attentive staff, for whom no request was unmet with helpful and positive attitude. The plentiful breakfasts served in the restaurant are sustaining and Nepali chiya (tea) here is a speciality, plentiful and just spicy enough. As with all Thamel accommodation, the higher up in the building you go, the less noisy it is both late at night and early in the morning; this hotel accommodates large tourist and business groups so be sure to call well ahead to make any special requests for particular requirements with the rooms.

Fantastic location”
we have stayed in hotel thamel before, and to this day their standards have not dropped at all. the hotel is situation very close to the main tourist area of thamel; however, despite this, you do not experience the noise from that area. the hotel is very peaceful. the rooms are very bright and clean. the food is probably the best you will find in thamel. if you need any help at all, the hotel staff are very friendly and willing. i would strongly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.

Great Hotel in Great Location”
We were treated like Kings at Hotel Thamel. We stayed at the hotel at the beginning and end of our hotel. Great, varied breakfasts. Great menu at dinner. Front desk was most helpful and friendly at all times. I made an error with my second booking - so we needed an upgrade and we were upgraded to the suite. Hotel Thamel is perfectly located in the Thamel area ... shopping and eateries - but being on a side street - it's quiet. We will definitely be back. Thank you Mr Gurung and Team for making our stay at your establishment so special.

Brilliant”
The manager Samil and Prem went way beyond their duties to ensure that my stay at the hotel was a stay that I would remember for years to come. From organising trips to information of the local area, their knowledge was exceptional. The staff at the hotel were also very, very polite and helpful in all matters and were also friendly. I was made to feel part of the Thamel Hotel family and this touched me deeply and is part of my memory of the first trip ever to Nepal, but not the last. When I do return on my next trip I will be staying at the hotel Thamel. It will be like going home to my friends.

Nice Hotel, well located.”
Located up a narrow lane nearly opposite "Thamel House" Restaurant at edge of "Thamel" area, main Tourist drag. Off main road, so nice and quiet at night time.When you leave Hotel and turn right on main street, taxis and cyclos wait at this junction, a further 100 metres down the street an ATM is located on left hand side. A further 250 metres, at second right hand turn, brings you to "Pumpernickle" Bakery/Cafe and opposite this is "Mandala Street" where "The Last Resort" Office is located.You can book here for Bungy jumps/Canyon swings at the Resort which is located about 12K before the Tibet Border, about a 4 hour bus ride from Kathmandu.Overnight accommodation available and is recommended, particularly after the bus ride.!

Friendly and helpful staff, great location”
We enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Thamel. The entire staff was very helpful and friendly. Free airport pickup was included. I would highly recommend it for people looking to explore Thamel while note diving right in the middle of it all... the hotel is a little north of the central shopping areas and off a small side alley. That being said, it was a short walk to go wherever you wanted, and walking and looking at everything are what we enjoyed about Thamel.

Solid Value”
Hotel Thamel provided me and my friends a great place of respite in the busy Thamel district. The Hotel's entrance and lobby area adorned with art and exquisitely carved columns... one notices the quality of custom laid marble floors and fine art throughout the hotel. Comfy beds and reliable TV and WiFi are a bonus!

Clean and Friendly Island In A Busy, Noisy City”
Despite some noisy (and temporary) renovations, we had a very pleasant stay at the Hotel Thamel. Staff all great, especially the Manager who works long, hard days and tries to satisfy all the needs of his guests. Food good as well, if you don't feel like venturing out. Location excellent, and very efficient pickup at airport if you need that.

Comfortable and Good Enough -- Great Location”
Khatmandu is a place where you need to have lower expectations for hotels. In fact it rarely freezes in Khatmandu. So while normal hotel heat is limited, you won't need to sleep in your ski parka. Hotels generally generate their own electricity during the first quarter of the year because the limited hydro-electric plants do not have enough water for 24-hour a day electricity. This hotel has electricity and hot water in the mornings and evenings like most others. I suppose you can pay more for more hours of electricity in more expensive hotels. But the clients at Hotel Thamel are interesting and friendly and there is good fellowship around breakfast in the mornings. The location of the hotel is in a clean, safe, hotel zone with lots of services nearby. Everything for trekking, tour services, wonderful local art (my favorite in Asia), foods, and more are just outside the front door. I thought the upgrade to a deluxe room was worth it as i had more space and better everything.

Exceptional”
Me and my wife really liked this hotel. We booked this hotel for the second as our first stay was very good. Breakfast was good and the rooms were renovated . The most important thing was that there was hot water every time and not to forget the wonderful staff. This time the hotel organized our tour and we were very happy with what they have organized for us and the price was also reasonable. Would definitely recommend.
