Kathmandu Hostels

"The best budget hotel in Thamel!"

"Sara's Backpackers Hotel is really OK. The location is practical, you can get to important places QUICKLY like the Pashupatinath Temple or the Garden of Dreams. The rooms are clean, but a bit simply furnished. WIFI IS free, but sometimes a bit slow. THE staff is super friendly and helps with everything, whether it's excursions or questions about the area. Breakfast is OK too, but not super special - just typical of the country. The rooftop terrace is a real highlight, a nice view to relax. There are also bikes to rent, which is cool. A few things could be better, e.g. the beds are a bit hard and the showers could be more modern. Overall, though, it's good value for money. Would come back if I'm in the area! ⭐⭐⭐⭐"

"We read comments from other guests and we started to book 2 nights at Hostel de Ajeet. It was a good decision, no doubt, because we stayed 6 nights finally. The building is clean and built a couple of years ago. The giant bed and has a hot water shower. Being there is also sharing with your family, because they reigned the local in a very close way. It is 200 metres from the Monkey Temple and the National Museum."

"Had a great 2-night stay at Holiday Hostel. The staff are genuinely friendly and helpful — quick to sort out transport and full of good local tips. The place has a nice, relaxed environment and the rooftop bar is a real highlight, perfect for winding down in the evening. Location couldn't be more convenient, right in the heart of Thamel with everything within walking distance. Great value for the price — would definitely stay again."

"Owner is very nice and helpful. Nice views. Breakfast was two toasts egg butter jam and coffee which was nice. Staff is all very good. Bed was clean and comfortable"

"The price of the shared room seems reasonable considering the quality and location—close to the heart of Thamel. However, the room is a bit small, and during hot seasons, dealing with the heat without AC can be a challenge. I’d like to highlight the excellent reception service, especially from Mónica, who was very attentive and always willing to chat or help with anything. I’m truly grateful for the staff’s hospitality."

"Great hostel, would and going to stay again Cheep beer and food as well in the bar Strongly recommend"

"It's a little bit of a walk from the Thamel area and in a secluded location, but it wasn't inconvenient for sightseeing. I stayed in a 6-person dormitory on the top floor, and the shower toilet was clean and acceptable. There was also toilet paper provided, so I think this hostel is within the acceptable range for Japanese people. There is no elevator, so it is a bit difficult to go up and down, but other than that it was a comfortable hostel. The owner was able to communicate in English via Whatsapp and was quick to respond to various questions and tour requests. I organized a half-day hiking tour of Nagarkot, which included a guide and car for about 17,000 Nepalese rupees."

"This was the most comfortable accommodation I stayed at in Kathmandu. The service was excellent, and the hotel was very clean. I would definitely stay here again next time I'm in Kathmandu. I highly recommend it!"
