The breakfast was terrible , need to learn to do scramble eggs, the hot water took 5 minutes to come hot, so I wasted water before hot water can come, there is no lift

It was in a busy area so it was good for shopping

Stayed in February 2025

The room was okay, but a bit dated. It was comfortable enough for us, though there was no cold water in the shower. We organised a transfer from the airport, but the transfer did not show (even though we waited and looked for someone holding a sign).

Breakfast was nice and not too expensive. We enjoyed the local vibe of the hotel and how well it was located. It made it very easy for our driver and our guide to find us and we didn't feel out of place

Lot of construction in next house which made a lot of noise. Rooms weren’t that soundproof so a lot of noise came from corridors.

Location was in a quiet street in Thamel. Staff were friendly. Breakfast was okay and they made also eggs/omelette when you asked. AC was good and didn’t make a lot of noise.

The room size is very small, you don't get a cupboard, pillows are very heavy and low class, very uncomfortable.

Staff and Breakfast choices and location

Stayed in March 2024

Hotel room smelt like cigarettes Windows were left open when I checked in, I imagine to try let out the smell. Breakfast was tasty but same breakfast choices every morning. Wifi only works in your room. Every room has their own wifi to connect to.

Arrived early and staff were able to check me in to the room when I arrived. Bathroom was nice, provided new toothbrushes, pressure was good in shower.

The price on booking.com showed a discount when I was looking, but then we ended up paying about $75 aus more than expected. I made a query at reception, but the manager was curt and suggested we could cancel if we weren't happy. He wasn't friendly and was quite dismissive. I didn't like the smell of cigarette smoke wafting up from the bar downstairs- (we were on the first floor). This happened every time we opened our windows for 'fresh air'. This was disappointing.

Great breakfast

Cleanliness could have been better especially the room smell. It was not dirty per se but was smelling of old clothes/dust. Some room freshner would have helped. Bathroom shower pod had no barrier and water was flowing all over the floor. This could have been managed with a barrier and different drainage system.

Breakfast was not so attractive but I would say okay. Had choice of Indian and continental. The contents were just paratha, chatni and curd with tea/cofee, corn flakes and juice.

quiet place in the midst of hectic life in Thamel

The breakfast was sometimes slow to arrive and occasionally orders were mixed up. Milk or cups for coffee would run out and we had to find a waiter to tell him. Staff were all friendly, but service in this regard has room for improvement.

The breakfasts were filling and tasty, although sometimes a little slow to arrive. Masala tea was a bonus every morning! Staff were friendly and helpful.

Too far from our friends in Balkot, Bhaktapur and we had to get too many taxis so decided to go and stay with our friends - this is the only reason we left the hotel early.

The staff were super friendly and helpful. The receptionist was really lovely. The location was perfect for me and my 5 year old son…. in the heart of Thamal but hidden away in a little dude street so we had peace and quiet at night time. The super king size bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. We loved the quaint rooftop too. with stunning plants. I was so impressed and shocked when the hotel said we only had to pay for what we stayed - this never happens with booking.com. and it was only because of the distance to our friends location that we cut our stay short. So any hotel that offers this service will definitely get a high rating from me and I will be booking this hotel again.

A part of it was under construction, and there were construction sounds throughout the day. It’s manageable though. Also, the property didn’t have an elevator for some weird reason. After trekking for 15 days, I had to go to my room after climbing 4 floors, it caused some minor discomfort.

Good location, good room with a view, cleanliness of the property, and a good breakfast in the morning. The staff was super friendly and cooperative too.

Room and bathroom was very small and suffocating. Also they don’t have elevator. The stairs were very high and difficult to climb.

Neighborhood and breakfast

Stayed in February 2025

No elevator in the hotel. Free drinking water only at the ground floor (Hard for guest living at 5th floor).

Stayed in March 2025

the room was quite old, construction noises hammering half of the day, annoying electrical noise originating in the kitchen ventilation, poor breakfast.... for the price you get much better options in the area. Much better

I had a huge expectation with Durban hotel but was disappointed big time. The staffs are horrible, please fire them already, if you are in hospitality business and you don’t know the term “Service” then I suggest to change your business. Staffs are very lazy and feels like they don’t care about the guests at all. The rooms were not properly cleaned, and any request we made was either ignored or took forever to be addressed. This is not the kind of experience anyone would expect, especially from a supposedly reputable hotel. If they don’t improve their service and staff attitude, they’ll end up losing customers. Worst staff ever encountered, fire them already
