Amazing location, staff goes beyond to help organize anything. They organized my whole trek to the Annapurna (12 days) in last minute and it was the most amazing experience of my trip. They can store your stuffs for free, they help you out really with anything. They upgraded my room giving me a family room with a huge bright view, I loved it so much. Will be back there and not anywhere else next time!

Amazing hostel lovely helpful staff ( if you need any assistance) , perfect location you can walk to the square centre, plenty of shops don’t need a transport. There is a nice cafe on the top floor of the hostel with a great view and superb service food is very tasty is well Laundry service available. This place is great funky friendly and feels very safe. Forgot to add rooms and bedding are nice and clean ! Highly recommended .

I did not like the Pashupatinath Temple it's mainly for Hindus and there are restrictions on foreigners and no Photography in certain places. It was NPR 1000 overpriced to see very little, harrassed from the moment I walked through the gate. It took me 75 minutes to walk there and I left after 5 minutes to leave. I wasted my day. Beware friendly locals there is an anterior motive behind every action, especially in the market area.

It's close to many amenities, such as local shops, restaurants, and bars. Monkey Temple is an easy walk from the hostel. Good Location.

Everything was excellent, will be back!

I had a wonderful stay here, and it's the ideal choice for anyone visiting the city. The location couldn't be better—right in the heart of the action, making it incredibly convenient for tourists. Most of the top attractions were within walking distance, and the nearby public transportation options made getting around a breeze. The service at the hostel was exceptional. The staff were genuinely friendly and always ready to assist with a smile. Whether it was offering directions, suggesting must-see sights, or just checking in to make sure I was comfortable, their attentiveness really made a difference. The rooms were clean and cozy, providing a perfect retreat after a long day of exploring. If you're looking for a hostel with a prime location for sightseeing and a staff that truly cares about your experience, this is an excellent choice. I'll definitely be staying here again on my next visit!

I enjoyed everything about my stay!

I recently stayed at Rest Up , and I must say, the recent renovations have completely transformed the property! From the moment I walked into the stylish and modern lobby, I knew I was in for a great experience. The updated décor is fresh, elegant, and makes the whole hotel feel more luxurious. What truly made my stay special, however, was the friendly and attentive service. The staff went out of their way to ensure every aspect of my visit was perfect. The food at the hotel's restaurant was another highlight. The menu features a variety of delicious dishes, and every meal I had was excellent. Overall, this is a fantastic choice if you're looking for a comfortable and stylish stay with top-notch service and dining in an ideal location for tourists . I highly recommend it and look forward to returning soon!

All lovely

I had an awesome experience at this hostel, even better than a star hotel! The room was spacious and clean, with a beautiful view of the lush garden. The hot shower was a nice touch. I especially enjoyed the rooftop restaurant, which offered delicious local beers and food, including a great breakfast. A big thank you to Mr. Prakash, the hostel manager, who organized a fantastic 2-night, 3-day hike to Chisapani and Nagarkot at a great price. It was the best monsoon hike experience I've had. I would 100% recommend this lovely hostel.

It is a lovely hostel in Kathmandu. I had a comfy night with excess to the rooftop evening experience. Mr. Prakash, the manager, is an exceptional person to deal with. He managed my tour to Pokhara, Chitwan, and Lumbini at relatively low fares. I recommend everyone to consider Rest Up Thamel if you are traveling to Kathmandu and searching for an affordable place to stay.

There was no switch for the light in the dorm so the lights were on all night. Also, very loud music can be heard at night, someone was vacuuming from around 6am. Not the hostels fault but someone in the room was talking loudly on the phone, eating and watching shows on their phone throughout the night… There was only one bathroom/shower on my floor.

Central location, close to lots of shops. It’s down a dark side street but they have a security guard on the main road. Staff are friendly
