No much.

Large reception area and the courtyard gave this hotel a spacious feel. Eating in the courtyard in the evening (March) was an enjoyable, relaxed experience. Swimming pool was inviting but we were there in a cool evening and departed the next day. Our room was quiet and comfortable.

Excellent breakfast buffet with a wide variety of choices. The hotel is located 5 minutes away from the Buddha Stupa.

Carpets and furniture in the room are a little tired. Bed mattresses a little soft for my liking. The Gompa (Buddhist monastery) inside the hotel grounds isn’t actually used for prayer services; so you’ll have to go for a walk to other Gompas if you want to see some monk action.

Comfortable place with the usual western facilities, bedding, bathrooms and cleanliness required by upmarket western tourists. Price on Booking.com was fair IMO. Staff were very helpful, nice and friendly. Lady at reception was exceptionally helpful. Very quiet room. Nice air-con. Not far from the sights. Do a very nice Banana Smoothie at the poolside bar. Nice to walk past the Buddhist Gompa all the time. Tucked away from the hustle-bustle. I would be happy to stay there again.

It was very Clean, and the bed completely comfortable. The breakfast was really good and slightly different every morning :) The pool outside is also very clean. We got an upgrade, so the room was very big :) thank you so much 🧡 Everybody was very friendly and we felt welcome. 🤗 And the hotel is close to the Boudha stupa wich was nice for us because we’re Buddhists, but it was very quiet!

Breakfast could be better with more different food and desserts. I come here for many years regularly. And still staff is not very friendly.

Very clean and comfortable. Quiet rooms. Hot shower 24 hours.

This is a real gem. We are so glad we found it and were sad to leave after only one night. This is a lovely, classy hotel situated within the complex of a monastery and is so incredibly peaceful. We did see that the must have been other people staying but there is such a sense of calm and serenity we felt like we were the only guests! Go to the morning yoga from 8-9am, it is such a lovely way to start your day. Then have a delicious breakfast (really tasty veggie options). Pool looks great but isn’t heated so we only dipped our toes in… Rooms are clean, spacious, comfortable and very pretty decor with exposed brickwork and wood carving. Dalai Lama quotes on the walls! I’m not a Buddhist and not a partially spiritual person but honestly I left feeling so serene! The location couldn’t be better for visiting Boudha, it’s right by the stupa (pedestrianised and peaceful streets) yet really quiet and there are some great local restaurants to try.

The place is overall fantastic and great value. But the most special and unique think is the Buddhist Temple in the yard where there are free yoga classes for guests.

It was a true delight to stay at Dolma Ling. The staff were all so genuinely kind and friendly. It was Dec/Jan when I stayed and just walking into the lobby gave much warmth, not only with the smiles but also the warm temperature. The breakfast was healthy with lots to choose from – Nepali, Tibetan, and Western options. At dinners the staff was happy to adjust the cooking to accommodate for allergies. I felt very safe and cared for. The location was an oasis in the bustle of Boudhanath…down a quiet lane, very peaceful and quiet.

As for Nepal, it is not the cheapest hotel, but the price is followed by quality and standard, which is similar to the West. Some of the equipment is old though. In our room, the drain plug in the bathroom broke, but after reporting it, it was quickly fixed. In another room, which we got in the second part of our stay, some of the electrical sockets did not work. Additional services is also quite pricey, but good quality.

Hotel Dolmaling stands out with its premium standard above other hotels in the area. The design of the hotel is very nice and aesthetic, the public spaces are clean and high quality. I liked the Buddhist accents in the decor and even the mantras played from the recording. You can experience local culture here, I happened to see a probably Tibetan wedding. :) I felt very good here and could relax from the hustle and bustle of the city. I really appreciated that the room had heating (air conditioning), hot water for bathing, electricity and WiFi without interruptions, which I know was not always the standard in other facilities in the area. The bedding and towels were relatively clean, and at the same time the cleanest I have experienced in the whole of Nepal, because this is probably a general problem that bedding and towels are not always perfectly clean. The staff was friendly and helped to fulfill many of my needs. The breakfast buffet was okay, but I much prefer the dishes from the a’la carte menu. I tried one of the Bhutanese sets and it was the best dinner dish I've eaten during my stay in Nepal :) I also used the laundry service several times and was very pleased, the clothes came back clean, ironed and folded. Although it was one of the most expensive laundry I've ever done on a trip ;)

Breakfast food option can be improved.

Interesting decor and the room facilities was great with the bathtub. Bed is comfortable and there is lift to the floor. Dinner menu is excellent with tasty food.

Staff is very slow. Don’t ask them to call taxi… you can wait for one hour and more… it’s better to take taxi in the street

Very nice location, food , very clean and beautiful

The hotel is conveniently located for Bounhanath stupa which is around 10 minutes walking distance away but because its location is away from main roads, the hotel is incredibly calm and peaceful. Our room on the first floor was very stylish and decorated with high quality furnishings. Well equipped with fridge, tv, safe, hairdryer and kettle with tea/coffee supplies and complementary bottled water. Very comfortable king bed providing a relaxing nights sleep. Breakfast has a range of food options with eggs cooked to order plus various hot dishes, yoghurt, fruit, toast and cakes. We had a late lunch one day and two dinners in the restaurant and all were excellent. A good base if staying in the area.
