    Everything was perfect

    I had a lovely time staying at this homestay. Sugat and Roshani are amazing hosts and made me feel very comfortable, and they are great to chat to in the mornings over breakfast. They also kindly kept my luggage safe while I went trekking. It’s a beautiful house in a nice relaxed neighbourhood. It’s also very close to the airport so a perfect place to stay after or before a flight.

    Homstay owners are super nice. The owner gave me a lot of useful information about the area, currency exchange, bus to Pokhara. It is possible to pick up from the airport ($ 15) and there was no problem with early check in. The room was very cozy with warm water. And tasty breakfast The neighborhood is quiet and safe.

    At this hotel, you’ll feel not just at home but like part of a close-knit family during your stay. The friendly couple who run the place go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, offering care and support with anything you might need. The rooms are spacious, spotless, and well-equipped, with comfortable furnishings and a modern bathroom featuring a hot shower. Electricity is reliable, and the internet connection is fast and stable. Breakfast is excellent, and there’s always free drinking water available for guests. The hotel is located in a quiet area, tucked away from the noise of the main streets. It’s about a 30-minute walk to Thamel and just a 10-15 minute taxi ride from the airport, which typically costs 500-700 rupees. This is a wonderful place to stay, and I can confidently recommend it. You’ll leave with only positive impressions!

They are so personable with you and always ready to help, be it by making a fresh breakfast each morning or give you tips on Kathmandu or anything else you may need. This really is the perfect relaxed and welcoming place to stay in Kathmandu.

    Wonderful family homestay in the heart of Kathmandu. The owners are so kind and helpful, we loved our chats in the morning. The homestay is located in a lovely calm non touristy area. Take the small streets to walk to durbar square or Tamel and you will be able to see the local life - we loved it!

    Absolutely nothing negative

    This was really a very beautiful stay in a very quiet corner in Kathmandu. Sugat and his wife are so neat and heartful, they really have won a place in my heart. They help you in any kind of wishes and make a stay in their house so wonderful. The rooms are so beautiful and very clean, they offer a nice sitting space and the Wifi is strong.. Their home has a fixed place in my mind, and when I come back to Kathmandu its the place I wanna be. Thanks from my heart for this experience. Johannes from Germany

    The location of the homestay is very good as it's central but in a residential area where it's calm. Staying at a homestay is a great way to get an idea of how locals live. Swagat means welcome in Nepali and having stayed at this homestay twice during my trip to Nepal I must say that the name is very fitting. The owners - Sugat and Roshani - went out of their way to ensure that I had a great time in Kathmandu.

    Absolutely nothing! Great stay!

    First and foremost we couldn’t recommend a stay with Sugat (the owner) any more! Very welcoming family, with it being our first time in the area and not knowing much we required some help, with Sugat it felt like we had our own local guide with the amount of information and guidance he gave us! We felt he went the extra mile by booking our bus/taxi journey out of town for us, also accompanying our taxi drivers over the phone to locate his place for us! (As it is a remote area). We would also like to mention mention the food at his second hotel, notably the buff mo mo dish was incredible! Highly recommend heading there! Would most definitely return!

    Swagat and Roshani made me feel at home. Cozy, welcoming and caring family. I arrived super late at night from a log bus trip that was delayed and they where expecting me and keeping track of my journey. Really appreciated. The room is big and super comfy, amazing hot shower and friendly breakfast with small talk every day :) Even though I just stayed for 3 days I would rather spend more days. Well located to explore the est of Kathmandu, and close to Thamel (30 min walking). The neighborhood is calmed and beautiful to discover the city off the center.

    nothing.

    I highly recommend Swagat Homestay for long term trips. The breakfast is really good and the family is so lovely and helpful! I actually stayed here for two months, and I found the entire experience very convenient. There's lots of local restaurants around and a local vegetable market about 5 minute walk from the homestay. There's also a kitchen which I used every evening to cook dinner. Sugat and Roshani are wonderful people and gave me loads of advice on what to do during my stay and how to get places. I had both a friend and my father come and stay with me at different points during the two months I was in Nepal, and they also loved their stays:) I'm really going to miss it here!
