Hotel Yak & Yeti

Excellent hotel and service . Amazing staff. Receptionist Shisham and Jasma and server John are very polite and helpful. We had issues from Lukla and were early yet they went out of way to get us a room .

Our stay at this property was most pleasent . The overall anenities and rooms are most tastelfully done . It is like a beautifully curated museum all over , art and craft displayed seamlessly in its functioning . A tour of the Lal Durbar conventiom center which is built around the Heritage lal Durbar palace , was most wonderfull. A walk through history , artifacts and royal lifestyle was made interesting by Guest relation ececutive Muskan . She warm and well informed as she took me on the tour . Thank you.

You can feel the luxury as soon as you arrive but this is not a pretentious hotel just very comfortable. Excellent staff. Lovely pool and two great bars.

I stayed at the Hotel Yak & Yeti for a business trip. They helped me organise all the airport transfers and taxis in general throughout our stay. They had the most warm, welcoming and helpful staff. Barsha & Muskaan stood out for me, they had such a great energy and made my time in Nepal that next level of happiness. They were kind, considerate and professional. The food here is gorgeous, the catering team and staff are so responsive and Japad really made my stay a happy one. I would recommend this to anyone heading to Nepal. Great location too!

I have stayed at the Yak and Yeti twice now, and I have to say the moment you step into the Yak & Yeti Hotel, you feel it—an immediate sense of grounded elegance paired with genuine human warmth. As someone who has spent a career thinking about well-being, resilience, and the environments that foster both, I can say this place gets it right on every level. There’s a kind of quiet coherence here. The architecture honors history without feeling dated, the gardens offer a calming, almost restorative presence, and the staff consistently demonstrate a level of attentiveness that feels both professional and deeply authentic. That balance—between excellence and humanity—is rare. What stands out most—truly—is how extraordinary the staff are. Their presence isn’t just helpful; it’s uplifting. Every interaction reflects a kind of mindful engagement that goes beyond hospitality into something more meaningful. They listen, they notice, they respond—not mechanically, but with a sincerity and emotional intelligence that is deeply reassuring. In psychological terms, they create an environment of trust and ease almost instantly, which has a measurable impact on how welcomed and settled you feel. What impressed me further is how effortlessly the hotel supports both productivity and relaxation. Whether you’re preparing for a demanding day of work or simply seeking a space to recalibrate, the environment adapts to you. The rooms are thoughtfully designed, providing comfort without excess, and the overall atmosphere encourages clarity of mind. And again, it’s the people who elevate everything. The team seems to anticipate needs before they’re even articulated, and they do so with grace and consistency. That kind of intuitive service is not easily taught—it reflects a culture of care that is clearly embedded in the organization. I love the 4th floor Executive Level’s High Tea, Happy Hour and endless snacks – 24 hours a day. They even made a cake for our expedition team welcoming us back with traditional shawl scarves and unmatched, authentic hospitality. I want to publicly thank Shradha Upreti, Front Office Executive, and her Club Shangri-La Team members Amar and Suman - they are rockstars of service and kindness! My favorite room (530), a 2 room suite, looks out over the beautiful, private grounds in the back with white ducks, gardens, ponds and pool. Just as beautiful to look out on as it is to be in. And the breakfast is great, which at home I would skip, but not here! In a city as vibrant and dynamic as Kathmandu, the Yak & Yeti stands out as a place of both refuge and connection. It doesn’t just meet expectations—it elevates them, quietly and confidently. If you’re looking for a stay that supports both your external goals (like a bucket list climb to Everest Base Camp) and your internal well-being, this is a place I recommend without hesitation.

Rabi was excellent! The food is fresh and delicious. We ate here multiple times and we are staying at a nearby hotel. Highly recommend this restaurant. We enjoyed the fish and sliders, soup, and potatoes. Very nice experience.

I stayed at Hotel Yak & Yeti for 2 nights and had a great experience. The hotel has a very peaceful and relaxing atmosphere, perfect for unwinding. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, but I feel the variety could be improved. Overall, I’m very satisfied and would definitely stay again.

Comfortable and big room, friendly and helpfull staff, variety of food, great location.
