Hotel Blue Horizon

This was a comfortable hotel that met our needs. The garden was a pleasant place to eat or have a beer at the end of the day. All staff were pleasant and helpful. This hotel is only a short walk from shopping and the Dream Garden which is a beautiful place to visit and escape from the busy city.

A good budget hotel. Staff were helpful, rooms were clean and the upper floor had a good sized room. For a Nepal hotel, we were happy with it and I would stay there again.

The garden is a little haven in a very busy city. The service was good, food was very nice and the staff friendly.

The staff are incredible so friendly and go out of their way to help you. The food is wonderful - they made a special effort to cater for my daughter's requests. They arranged good guides and porters for daughter's trek and when she needed help they were on hand to assist immediately ! This hotel and its staff is/are wonderful - I am indebted ! I plan to return to Kathmandu and will definitely be checking in again thank you hotel and staff you are marvellous !!

WOW! What a great little place. Tucked a couple hundred feet off the main road into hustle and bustle of Thamel, you're in an oasis of peace and quiet. After dodging motorcycles and experiencing the cacophony of the city, the Blue Horizon is a perfect counterpoint of tranquility. The courtyard is a perfect place to relax with a beer or tea, read a book or catch up on email (free wifi). Any inconveniences at the Hotel (electricity, etc.) are due to the city itself. BTW, the hotel has a generator that mitigates this power outage problem. The room was clean and comfortable. The cook/wait staff were courteous and the food was excellent. The staff went out of their way to ensure everything was good. Mr Ram arranged a wonderful night out for me and a sunrise trip to see the Himalayas and Bhaktapur.

Stayed there for 4 nights but i really enjoyed it, the staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were very large and well maintained and cleaned every day to a high standard, and had everything you need for a comfortable stay. It is about a 5 minute walk to Thamel. they have a free shuttle car to the airport Had no problem staying here and would stay again and would recommend.

I was check in at around local time 11:40pm, it is my first come to Kathmandu. But the hotel room wasn't nice, at least not clean. The hotel staff not honest, when I told they help me to book flight to pohkara, and my room rate should be including breakfast, but no body ask me about this? The room water is not free for complimentary. No good hotel I won't recommend.

This was a reasonable hotel for the money paid. Some problems were that the hot water is supplied by solar heating. This is all very eco-friendly, but it does mean that there is no hot water in the mornings. The hotel deals quite well with the constant power cuts in Kathmandu. They have a generator that keeps at least one light in each room going when there is no mains power. As the hotel is a little way out from central Thamel, I had hoped that it would be quieter. But there was still music until late, and what sounded like dozens of dogs barking and howling throughout the night. The staff are friendly and helpful.

For a midrange hotel in Kathmandu the hotel is impressive. The hotel rooms are clean and comfortable, the food is of a really good standard, the staff are amazingly helpful. Really surprised at how good the service was and how helpful all the staff members were.

We stayed here several times in November,2011 and loved it. We got different rooms each time, and although varying facilities all had good beds and most things worked OK .. it had a really great courtyard restaurant which served good food fairly fast. They offered a valuable luggage storage service for no charge and all the staff were very friendly. Our biggest gripe was with reception .. they would defer any request we made for as long as possible and they made even small requests infuriatingly difficult ..it would all be "nods" and "yes" and yet 12 hrs later nothing would be done still. That said, the hotel is in a great position, about 5 mins walk from greater Thamel down a side lane, and was an absolute sanctuary from the chaos and noise of Thamel. It was also virtually next door to the "Garden of Dreams" which has to be one of the most delightful spots in Kathmandu. It was great value for money and I would certainly recommend it to anyone visiting Kathmandu.
