The staff are attentive and go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, and the rooftop garden so relaxing. Highly recommended for a relaxing and memorable visit!

    The hotel is in a very central location of Thamel, near many restaurants and shops that sell hiking gear and souvenirs. The staff was always polite and ready to help with any type of inquiry, such as where to exchange money, where to rent trekking gear, how to get a taxi and information about different Nepal treks. The facilities were clean and comfortable and the breakfast quite generous.

    This is a wonderful space. The room has a very comfortable bed and a small sitting area with a sofa. There are enough outlets plus a power strip so you can charge devices relatively easily. The shower has a rain forest head and enough hot water…it’s the simple things! The outdoor dining area (when it is warm) is a lovely place to breakfast. Staff (especially “Sue”) are all kind and helpful. Location is off a relatively calm alley bordered by the “souvenir” street and a more commercial (local) street. Easy to get most of what you need. Don’t forget the museum which is just a few minute walk from the hotel.

    If I’m really nitpicking, I will say that one of the windows in the room didn’t close flush so a little noise came in. Also they don’t leave water or clean your room unless you leave your key at front desk, though you can pick up free water on the first floor at any time. And the breakfast is fine for a day or two, but there isn’t any variety so after a few days you’ll be sick of it and will probably skip it.

    This hotel represented a great value for the money. Rooms were clean and spacious. Beds were comfortable and linens were clean. Everything in the bathroom worked well. Air conditioning was good. Free breakfast was included in the price. Staff spoke good English. The location was great, in the heart of thamel but on a side street so it was quieter with less foot traffic. The list goes on and on.

    Hotel Sekai offered two great stays for my first trip to Nepal! The rooms and garden were very comfortable and authentic (very very good value for money from my point of view!) The stuff speaks English, created a good atmosphere and was flexible and experienced when it comes to recommendations. My individual wishes were always respected and implemented. I was able to store my luggage free of charge and was told that there was always a space available for me. That was a great feeling :)

    Noisy, just like every single city on this continent! ;)

    For this price point, probably one of the best places I've stayed in my travels through Asia. The entire place is modern and clean. I had a sofa and table in my room! Huge comfy bed. They really made this a place you would want to come back to. Within walking distance to...absolutely everything. Great staff. You will not be disappointed here.
