KIRTIPUR COMFORT HOMESTAY with breakfast & dinner

I enjoyed staying with Aashish, Sujata, and Manju for several weeks (March-April '23) as an IVHQ volunteer from New Jersey. I couldn't have been more pleased; every need I had was met. And talk about a room: I was accommodated on the beautiful rooftop terrace with a balcony that gazed over the Himalayan foothills. I would highly encourage couples to reserve this specific space. Location: Kirtipur is not merely a place on a map, but a living canvas for human history. It’s a place where ancient temples coexist harmoniously with modern life, perched high along the hillside overlooking the capital city of Kathmandu. Though Kirtipur Comfort Homestay is outside of central Kathmandu, it is incredibly easy, fast, and affordable to travel there via the app InDrive (similar to Uber, Lyft, etc). Thus, the location should encourage you. In fact, I recommend staying outside of Kathmandu for a full 360-degree experience. Kirtipur Comfort Homestay is an opportunity to experience Kathmandu Valley from the inside out. Comfort: I have experience living in several homestays throughout Central/Southeast Asia as both a volunteer and a backpacker. I feel that my time at Kirtipur Comfort Homestay allowed me to connect the most deeply with my host family and fellow travelers. I also found the facilities clean, comfortable, and genuine. The house itself is quite large, allowing for some privacy, but also brings people together in the spacious living room. Kirtipur Comfort Homestay lives up to its name. Food: Although I ended up eating out often with fellow volunteers, I loved the food provided by the homestay. Breakfasts are simple, but filling: an abundance of fresh fruit, toast, coffee, tea, and sometimes pastries. Dinners are cooked in-house - traditional Nepali cuisine - with offerings such as dal bhat. Vegetarians and vegans can surely be accommodated with these offerings. But we ordered Western-style dishes too, like pizza.
