Hotel Sherwi Hyul

The breakfast was very good and offered some variety over my 2+-week stay. Additionally, all of the staff were extremely pleasant and the management went out of their way to accommodate my needs, including arranging transportation and accommodation in Pokhara. This is an older hotel with some quirks: some rooms have private baths immediately adjacent to the room itself. However, these are at the front of the hotel and feature stunning views of Boudhanath Stupa (if on 4th floor), sunny exposure and small balconies. There is also a rooftop terrace with superb views. The room itself was huge (with a seating area) and provided everything to make tea/coffee. Potable (sanitized) water provided on each floor. The stupa, restaurants, and various shops are within 3 min walk, yet upon entering the front gate one feels removed from the bustle of the streets. Highly recommended

Verw helpful employees, spacious room with great view. Nice breakfast.

The bathroom was in fact outside of the hotelroom, but connected via a curtain. Certainly less comfortable than usually, but still perfectly acceptable.

The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. The location was excellent and the breakfast was excellent too!

Not all rooms are the same. But the staff were flexible to switch rooms.

The breakfast was perfect (for me). Healthy and balanced, and delicious! They cook it fresh on the spot when you sit at the table. The hotel location is also ideal, just steps from Boudha Stupa and some of the monasteries I went there specifically to visit. It's located at the end of the road, behind a gate, so it's quite tranquil and calm, away from the busy road. They have reasonably priced laundry service. They also have a common kitchen on the ground floor, for people needing kitchen and fridge access, and a rooftop patio with spectacular view. And the staff — so friendly and helpful. Incredibly convenient and pleasant in every way! I would stay here again and recommend to all my friends/family in a heartbeat.

I didn't know that it was going to be so humid in KTM August!! It was like 80%+ humidity every day — nonstop sweating! I wasn't prepared for that, and assumed (wrongly) that all of the hotel rooms at Sherwi Hyul have AC. The first night I stayed in a room with no AC, it had just a fan, and it was too uncomfortable for me. Maybe for someone from a tropical country used to that kind of humidity it would have been fine, but I'm from Canada, so I'm not used to it. The next morning I requested to be moved to a room with AC, and the manager promptly arranged for the upgrade. The rooms with AC are very spacious and bright and clean and dry, with a direct sightline to the Stupa, and blissful cooling! Unless you're used to hot damp climates, I'd recommend a room with AC (which are, of course, more expensive than the non-AC rooms). Probably in the winter months when it's cold and dry, the non-AC rooms are just fine.

They serve an excellent breakfast- eggs, toast, fruit, vegetables, tea/coffee; the location is within walking distance to everything including our favourite restaurants: The Orchid & GardenKitchen; if you are Buddhist, it is close to the Boudha Stupa , shops and monasteries. The staff were accommodating, friendly and helpful. I felt very safe.

Need to specifically ask for air-conditioning as not all rooms are air conditioned. If you have mobility issues you need to request a room on lower floors as there is no elevator.
