+ Rahim (alias James Franco) is a wonderful host. he comes to the train station at 4:30h in the morning to pick me up and also he help me with some issues. he is funny and he makes you feel at home. I contracted a desert safari with him (wonderful too) and the next day he let me take a shower and rest in his hotel. he always has a chai to offer you :)

Nice hotel

All the bathrooms have only one window that opens to inside the room. I was travelling alone but couples or friends might have issues with the smell. A room heater would help a lot as the city gets very cold during nights.

The rooms were of good size and clean. The restaurant in the ground floor has very good service and tasty food. Hotel staff are very approachable and helpful.

Fabulous friendly welcome from exceptional staff at reception and in the restaurant. Excellent location in the heart of Thamel but on a very quiet side street. Extremely comfortable room with very hot water and fast Wifi.

Maybe drainage system problem, there was some weird smell in the toilet. I used a pail to cover the hole and the smell got off.

Tried momo in soup in Yala Cafe. It was delicious. The best momo I had so far. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Nothing to complain about at all.

Central location, wonderful staff, great restaurant, comfortable bed, very clean room. I loved being in the top floor and being able to go out of my room and have coffee in the morning. Great value for money. Would definitely go back and I recommend it highly.

Perhaps the blind could be thicker although it wasn't that bright.

The location was great， near many shops and some tourist sites， yet down a short, quiet alley. The room was spacious， the hot water working well. They have a restaurant that was really cozy，an international selection， prepared to Western standards and at reasonable prices. Many western guests stayed in the hotel and ate and relaxed at the restaurant. The staff at the front desk and the restaurant consistently go beyond their job to help， including sights to see，ordering taxis. It seems this is the culture of this hotel. A small hotel but provided all I needed. And unsurpassed value！

Location: Extremely accessible yet away from the noise of the busy road. Restaurant: This was the most fun part of the experience watching the waitstaff interacting with the guest. The excitement in their eyes to serve the guests while still being hospitable and showcasing Nepalese hospitality. The food was on point and portion size was proportionate to the price. Front desk: One of the most friendly front desk teams I have ever met. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Housekeeping: BIG ROOMS. Rooms were very comparable to those of higher budgets. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable.

Staff were so friendly and the hotel is tucked away in a side street so not too noisy. Room was great - I went for one with a kitchen and it was well-equipped

Yala Peak is a cosy hotel located in the centre of Thamel. The position is in a safe area and excellent to start exploring every site of Kathmandu. There’s also a restaurant in the courtyard which offers traditional delicious meals. Internet works really well. However extra points go to the people who work there. They are extremely friendly, kind and helpful. They actually make the difference. Moreover, it is possible to store the luggages in the storage room while you’re on a trekking!

Difficult to have a hot shower in the evening and a few mosquitoes in the room.

Beautiful establishment located in the center of Thamel in a quiet alley. Comfortable bed, lovely staff and a restaurant serving the best breakfasts around.

Genuinely nice staffs. Simple and basic room at affordable price. It’s also very nice to have a restaurant right there. Highly recommend this place!

Let me begin by saying this was my fourth trip to Nepal over the years and this was by far the best, without a doubt! Absolutely brilliant and wonderful place to stay. Right in the middle of the bustling Thamel, yet nestled away from the noise (I reckon it's not noise, it's part of the experience, beautiful chaos, as they say 😊) Great rooms, suited to each one's budget and clean. The cleaning staff keep the place top notch right through the day. Right from check-in, everything is smooth and the staff go out of their way to make you so, so, so comfortable. There's a saying in Nepali: Atithi Devo Bhava which translates to 'Guest is God.' And this is true of Hotel Yala Peak. Every member of the staff was so helpful during my stay, but a very special mention goes out to baini (little sister) Isha (Baini, hope you got the little gift I left for you at the reception as I had an early morning flight and couldn't see you and say good bye). She is such a sweet person and has so much of positive energy that it feels like all is well with the world! 😊. Dhanyabad, baini (little sister). And, last but not the least, of course the owner Mr. Durga, such a down to earth person. Thank you, dai (big brother). Will surely be back to my second

I really enjoyed my stay at Yala Peak. The staff was very warm and friendly and helped me a lot with my heavy luggage. The rooms are nice, beds comfy and you dont hear the noise of Thamel, as it is in a backyard. The breakfast is so good I came here again and again.
