Hotel Thamel House - 6 km from Boudhanath Stupa, Kathmandu

The location was fantastic. Right in the middle of Thamel, all the fun and buzz of restaurants, bars and shops and easy 10 minute walk to explore the old town area markets and temples. Thamel House is a great building and an oasis from the busy streets. My room was beautiful and spacious (room 18)! The windows faced the street so great to feel a part of the atmosphere. I arrived on a Friday night so the sound of music and people having fun went into the night but didn’t bother me

The only negative thing about my room was that there were some issues with the toilet not flushing but the staff were very attentive to the problem

Location for end of our stay in Nepal was great for shopping in Thamel for gifts. The hotel was clean and comfy with helpful and pleasant staff. Dinner in the adjacent restaurant had traditional dancing performances each night. Rooms were well presented and spacious with some welcome fruit and snacks. Decor is traditional Newari feel with lots of wood which we loved.

Placemats in the restaurant could do with a good wash.

Wonderful experience staying here before and after our Everest Base Camp trek. In the heart of the tourist area close to many shops and facilities. Terrific hotel with outstanding staff friendly and willing to take care of every need. Peaceful clean and comfortable stay. Highly recommended!

Being in the heart of a tourist area depending upon what you like evenings were sometimes a little loud.

Overall, the hotel met our needs. Our room was spacious, the bed was comfortable, and the common area was clean and welcoming, albeit basic. The breakfast is also basic, supplying just enough variety to provide for a good-enough meal.

Our bathroom could use an overhaul (very old, stained toilet, and cruddy shower area) and the hotel should invest in new towels, which were gray and very worn out. Also, our balcony room was situated over the hotel's courtyard where meals are served, so although it didn't stay loud very late into the night, expect to hear a good amount of noise from below during the evening.
