Guest Reviews
- BennyJets (9/5): - A few minutes walk north of Thamel within a residential neighbourhood if you want to stay out of the crazy tourist area but still want to be close to it. Plenty of mini-shops and food options nearby. I liked the 3rd floor and 4th floor terraces (real terraces not balconies) with deck chairs. And a lovely (I swear I'm not being architecturally pedantic, just google it lol) Widow's walk at the very top! Perfect for watching birds, people, surrounding hills; as a lookout for enemy combatants, counducting surveillance, what-have-you, etc etc. The owner and staff are so nice, always asking if everything is alright. It's like staying with your relatives... that you like. Well, it IS in a residential neighbourhood, so it comes with the usual hustle and bustle of life. 🙂

- Miguel (10/5): - We had an amazing stay at this guest house! We stayed for a week, and everything about our experience was perfect. One evening we were even treated to a complimentary dinner, which was absolutely delicious. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout our stay, making us feel right at home. Our room was spotless, and the entire guest house is beautifully maintained. We especially loved the charming balcony and rooftop areas - perfect for relaxing. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable stay!

- Артём (9/5): - Очень благоприятное отношение со стороны владельца и персонала отеля, они всегда готовы оказать помощь с вызовом такси или обменом валюты. Отель удобно расположен в тихом место с 10 минутах пешком от Тамеля. В зимнее время в номерах довольно холодно, нужно брать с собой теплую одежду для сна, или искать обогреватель
- Tatsiana (8/5): - Вежливый и дружелюбный персонал: всегда готовы помочь с любым вопросом. Хорошее расположение (около Тамеля), красивый вид на крыше и балконе. В одноместном номере большая кровать. Зимой довольно холодно, нужно брать теплую одежду с собой или искать обогреватель.
- Roni (3/5): - הצוות נחמד ומנסה לעזור. חדר מרווח ומיטה גדולה. זה לא בתאמל בכלל, צריך ללכת כ10 דקות כדי להגיע לתאמל. מעבר לכך המים היו קרים במקלחת .
- Juliette (10/5): -
- elidon voda (8/5): - Thamel Backpackers Home offers solid value in a prime location just a short walk from the heart of Thamel. Guests consistently highlight the friendly and helpful staff, and comfortable, clean rooms with all the basics covered—including 24-hour hot water and free WiFi.

Everything about the hotel was exceptional. It was clean, stylish, roomy with excellent service in where we had dinner.

I hope to be back for a longer visit in the future.

- Keomani (10/5): Exceptional - The room was spacious enough. The location was very good, walking distance to Thamel. The staff was nice and welcoming.

- Singh (10/5): Excellent - Good location and supporting staff Nothing to be not liked
- Joe (9/5): Superb - the staff were really friendly and helpful someone in the building next door would ring a bell really loudly every day at 6 in the morning but this is out of the hotel staff’s control
- Roy (8/5): Averagely good experience - Staff Dusty sorroundings
- Johnny30601 (10/5): Great Value for your money. - My second stay after three years. Hotel is well located. Thamel is only a 10 minutes walk away where you can buy all things needed for your trek and many other things as well. Hotel owner and staff are very friendly and helpful, if wished. They never let you alone. For example the minibus to Ramech hap airport starts at 2 o'clock in morning. A staff member drove me by his bike to catch the bus in time. The hotel owner also took care for my save return to KTH by calling the driver to look out for me to get the right minibus.
- Prabeg (10/5): Exceptional -
- Pawan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gonch79 (8/5): Very good -
- Verified traveler (8/5): - My room wasn’t like the photos, but it was large, clean, secure and comfortable. When I explored above my floor I found the very top of their rooftop patio where I had a 360 view of the city as the sun came up. It was a wonderful view to take in. Breakfast was delicious. The staff was great. Thanks.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - その都度気を遣っていただいたが、1階の薄暗い部屋、かつスタッフのおしゃべり鼻歌でうるさく、快適でなかった。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Good place, near Thamel, quite at night, friendly staff
- Timothy (8/5): Good value Hotel on the edge of Thamel - This is a good value family hotel situated just outside the main Thamel area of Kathmandu. The staff are friendly and helpful, the rooms are a good size with en-suite bathroom and the beds are comfortable. There is good WiFi and they have luggage storage if you need to leave luggage behind whilst going trekking. I would say the only slightly negative part is it’s location as it is just outside of the main Thamel area down a fairly busy road. Saying that it will only take you about 10 minute walk to get into the heart of Thamel and is good value compared to prices of Hotels in Thamel itself. Overall this is a good option for people on a budget who don’t mind a short walk to Thamel.
- liwang (10/5): - The bed room is really comfortable, staff are friendly and they have lovely garden with city view. Nothing dislike here feel like home
