Located at the heart of the city, we are a family mother and son running a small cafe and had a spare room in our home so we thought we could host some tourist from the world and show them out beautiful city. You are welcome to our home as a guest and leave as a family. You will see amazing view of Bhaktapur Durbar Square and the range of Himalayas from the roof and enjoy the recipes of Newari culture food at my home. There are weekly feast and festivals happening all around the property where you can partake in. If you are in mood for some Nepalese western we run a cafe in the ground floor of the home. We have hot water showers towels and toilet paper for all visitors. You will have a two bathroom Chinese and western by the side of the room.
