Hotels Near Swoyambhu Mahachaitya in Kathmandu

The location is in the downtown area. After entering the gate, you have to walk a long way inside to get there. It is still quite quiet. The room is not very big. The facilities are also average. The shower water is not bad. The service score is not too high, mainly because we booked so far in advance. As a result, when we arrived, they said they couldn't find our order. It took a long time. Although they looked at my order, they still said they would contact me the next day because they were not sure I paid. The other service staff were all good and greeted politely. We booked a long time in advance. We found that the price dropped as we got closer. The breakfast was good.

The following are real pictures and videos I took when I checked into the hotel that day. The room I checked into that day, 507, was near the elevator entrance. Hotel location: Kathmandu has convenient transportation. You can see the Monkey Temple when you have breakfast on the top floor. There is no fog and you can see the snow-capped mountains on the balcony of the room. Hotel facilities: Look at the pictures yourself, they are quite new and were taken when I checked in that day. Look at the pictures for bedding and linens, the bed is quite comfortable. Hotel decoration: Look at the pictures yourself, it is a modern decoration style in Kathmandu. Bathroom: It is considered to be dry and wet separation, with a shower curtain. Breakfast: On the top floor, 6th floor, accessible by elevator, buffet, look at the pictures yourself, it is quite good. Hotel service staff: I personally feel that they are very service-minded and quite considerate during my stay. I was given room 307 first. When I arrived at the room, I saw a used towel and notified the waiter. The front desk staff immediately came to apologize and changed to room 507. They have a strong sense of hotel service. The pictures of the hotel match the pictures of the actual room I stayed in. Very good hotel, very worth staying in

The mattress and pillows had very bad smell like they had not been replaced for a couple of years. The food in Zing cafe at the lobby was just so so. The plastic table covers generally full of food debris without frequent changing. During the 7-day stay, the service at front desk, restaurant and for our room however was overall up to the standard of a 5-star hotel.

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.

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.

A great stay in the heart of Kathmandu! The hotel is simple but has everything you need—hot and cold running water, air conditioning, and a nice breakfast with aromatic coffee on the rooftop terrace. The central location is perfect for exploring the city, and the staff were incredibly welcoming. Highly recommend!

The room is large and clean, the bathroom is large, and the facilities are new and newly renovated. The hotel is on a busy commercial street, but the room is quiet. When we returned to the hotel from the Monkey Temple, the front desk guy patiently told the taxi the hotel location and driving route, and waited for us at the intersection. The boss helped us to determine the fare for the two attractions with the taxi driver, and personally drove us to the airport at 5:30 in the morning, and provided take-out breakfast. The restaurant on the first floor provides Chinese food. The dishes taste very good. The boss cooks personally, and the waitress has a good attitude.

Honestly, this is the most cost-effective hotel I have ever stayed in. The location is great, the room is comfortable, and most importantly, it is very clean. The shower has strong water pressure, which is very refreshing. The breakfast is delicious. The highlight is that the hotel owner is very helpful, arranging everything for us as first-time visitors to Kathmandu. We have already planned to return to Nepal in December and will stay at this hotel again. ---

The hotel facilities and sanitation are very good. The service is very enthusiastic. The hotel also gave away free breakfast. The hotel's breakfast buffet has many varieties and tastes very good. Love it 😍

I was worried because there were no reviews from Japanese people, but the Google rating was good, so I made a reservation and it was a big hit! The design seemed new, so I asked and found out that it had just opened last month, and it was incredibly clean! (That's why I understand why there were so few reviews) I think this hotel is suitable for Japanese people, so I'll write a review. Good points •It's a new building, so it's new and clean •There are many global design outlets (there is also a USB type at the bedside) •There are two 1-liter PET bottles of water •It has a jacuzzi, sauna, and mist sauna (I didn't use it, but the mist sauna smelled so good that I wanted to use it. It seems like it would be better to bring a swimsuit.) •The breakfast is delicious! They also make masala tea! •The staff is super kind (the manager also understands a little Japanese) •It's located off the main road, so it's quiet at night! •The bed mat was firm and I slept soundly! Notes •I thought I had booked a room with a bathtub, but it wasn't available for my room type! If you need one, it might be better to inquire in advance. •I stayed for multiple nights, but cleaning was not included. I had my luggage spread out so that was better for me, but I wish they had at least changed the towels. I asked at the front desk and they gave me new towels so it was no problem! There was a currency exchange on the way to the hotel and the rate wasn't bad. Anyway, it was clean and cheap, and if I stay in Kathmandu I'll come back!
