Kathmandu Hotels with Balcony

Pros Great location for exploring Themal and provided you are not too high up, you shouldn't hear any road noise as it's set back. I was on the 4th floor and could hear the incessant beeping motorbikes but had moved from the first floor where i heard none (but was directly above the kitchen so could hear banging and chairs scraping from around 6am). 2nd floor is probably a good choice Staff were all excellent Room cleaned daily with 2 large bottles of water provided each day Breakfast was ok - decent variety of fruit, local and western with custom eggs. Coffee was instant though. Air con has heat facility No deposit required on check-in Toiletries provided Cons Some noise depending on your room location - dont stay in 107 or room directly above the kitchen/restaurant No safe for passport, cash etc in room Breakfast area isn't particularly clean i.e. dirty table cloths/mats Poor standard of fixtures/fittings e.g. gaps in windows and doors, curtains dont quite close right, dirty shower curtain, the rooms have seen better days but for the price its still good value. No coffee or milk in room (or 3-in one) No phone charging point near the bed Bathroom mat was old and dirty, no floor towel Tips: take extra passport photo if you intend to get a sim card at the airport, unlimited data one with nepal telecom cost me $10 - signal was mostly ok. Get your currency before you arrive or take enough to convert there, the atm machines are expensive Taxi from airport to Themal should be around 350 rupees working on 50 rupees per km plys 30 rupees start charge. You will be hounded relentlessly by people from the second you leave the plane for tour services etc. It may seem impolite but dont make eye contact, say no thank you and keep walking, otherwise you will spend your entire trip speaking to them. Right now its cold at night, pack accordingly. Be prepared to pay for everything, every temple, every place of historical interest - foreigners are charged around 1000-2000 rupees each time. E.g. all the Durbar squares, main stupas and temples. Don't assume that because Nepal is a developing country it is cheap. It isn't. In fact i found it comparable to some developed countries and not cheaper than say Thailand. A meal would cost me around 1000 rupees. In a smaller more local place you may pay 500. Don't take your new trainers, it's a very dirty, dusty city but exactly what you would expect if you've ever seen it on TV - it's all part of the experience. For exploring all of the main parts of Kathmandu, id say 5 days is a good amount of time. I recommend the everest helicopter tour but on that note i will say that tours are very expensive here, more expensive than even Hong Kong, Thailand, etc!! I ended up walking to the main temples, Chandragiri, Bakhtapur for the more local experience.

We knew the service would be good as soon as we booked, and within hours we received a welcome email, listing the ways we could contact them if we needed to. On the pick up at the airport, they were speedy and efficient and the taxi ride only took us 20 minutes with traffic. As we walked through the door we were blown away by the interior decoration, only then to find that hotel had been a former palace! Historic artifacts and pictures were strewn through the hallways and the outside only matched the royal feel with perfection. We stayed in the royal suite, with a big bed and balcony. The staff were great, the breakfast was standard for off peak times and although the location isn't in the depth of Thamel, the area most will go out for eating and drinking, it was within 30 minutes drive of most landmarks and as it was the ambassedy/ office worker area, there was a nice vibe. There were some things that can't be controlled. The hotel did a good job of providing heat as the weather in February is still chilly. The pollution was real. Especially as you walk nearer the streets, something to think about if you are sensitive to this. Apart from that, It was all really wonderful. Niraj Yadav the receptionist and the team, we thank you dearly.

The skyline restaurant is the best at sunset in this hotel. They have a transparent glass floor to watch everything under your feet. Many locals also get dressed up and come here to enjoy the million-dollar-worthy sight. You can also enjoy the buffet breakfast at the same restaurant if staying here. I used the swimming pool and sauna on 9 floor. The staff there are very attentive and friendly. Feel like a queen being there! The room is super clean and smell nice! I am amazed by the A.C. System. Believe me that’s very rare to find in Kathmandu! All is very good from the beginning of check-in and till the end. They have free drop-off transportation to airport. So I would highly recommend to book the last nights in Nepal and enjoy a relaxing evening of here!

I traveled to Nepal alone and randomly saw this hotel on Ctrip. I booked it based on my intuition. It felt very quiet and comfortable. It turns out that women's intuition is super accurate. After landing in Nepal, I liked this hotel very much. Everything went smoothly. The boss and employees were super enthusiastic and sincere. They would do their best to help me solve the problem. I love it!! When I shared my cookies with them while having breakfast on the rooftop, I felt that this feeling was really good. Everyone didn't feel unfamiliar at all. I will recommend Himalaya Hotel to all my friends who are going to Nepal~

I booked a double room, but ended up getting a twin bed. The two beds were put together, and the gap in the middle was obvious. I was a little speechless. The location is OK, close to Durbar Square, and easy to get a taxi. The courtyard is not big, and the environment is OK. There is a small open-air balcony in the room on the first floor~

Excellent service: The staff is warm and considerate, and you can feel the caring service from check-in to check-out. During the period, I asked the hotel manager for help to take a taxi many times, and I got very active help, which greatly saved the fare. • Comfortable room: The room is spacious, modern and clean, the bedding is soft and comfortable, the bathroom facilities are complete, and the water pressure is sufficient. The water quality is also very good, and there is no online rumor that the water quality is bad and cannot be used to rinse the mouth. • Rich breakfast: The breakfast is rich in variety, including Nepalese specialties, Asian and Western breakfasts, and Chinese handmade cakes. In particular, the local vermicelli cooked by a special person is particularly delicious. • Complete facilities: The hotel has a variety of leisure facilities such as an outdoor swimming pool, steam room, fitness center, spa center, etc. The rooftop swimming pool overlooks the entire city and the Himalayas in the distance, as well as the gym and spa center.

Very good and comfortable hotel staff is. Very courteous They can improve the break fast menu. Indian breakfast items are not upto the mark, Further if they keep or offer the biscuit or cookies In room along with tea /. Coffee maker that will be very nice.

The location is on the edge of the pedestrian street in Thamel District, close to the pedestrian street, and very quiet. However, the entrance is a bit shabby. There are many European and American guests staying. The breakfast is a combination of Indian and Western styles. There is an outdoor dining area where you can smoke. The front desk is a bit small and not atmospheric. The hotel is listed as a four-star hotel. The hotel's service staff have very good attitudes and have no problem communicating in English at the front desk.

Very welcoming and helpful staff in a lovely bright clean hotel with everything you could need for a comfortable sleep .  A tasty early local food breakfast was prepared for me ( I requested ) before I was given a free ride to the airport which is only 5 mins away .  Highly recommend for early flight departure .

A very interesting hotel. The old building I stayed in was a bit old, but the hotel has a very beautiful and comfortable garden, providing a quiet place to rest in the heart of the city. The hotel has a rich history, next to the National Art Museum, and there is an art house in the hotel, which has many interesting works and the artists themselves are present. The hotel restaurant looks good (I didn't try it myself), and there is also a Himalayan Java coffee. Not your ordinary hotel, a hotel with a soul!
