Ambassador Garden House is a nice boutique hotel in Thamel. The garden area is very relaxing, the staff are attentive and the bed is very comfortable. The kichen/cafe staff make a very nice coffee and breakfast.

Charming place to stay… this place is quaint, the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. But if your looking for high end or fancy by western standards go elsewhere. There is no elevator which was fine with us. There is no pool or sun deck for lounging which again was fine with us. We were in the heart of Thamel with shops and restaurants galore; loved every minute of our short stay and have already recommended it to like minded travelers. The in house breakfast was excellent and more than we could eat.

Disappointing

Unfortunately the stay was bad. The water in the shower was almost always cold, the hotel was very poorly maintained, the TV didn't work, nor did the air conditioning, everything was very precarious. It's not worth what it costs. The staff are very friendly but cannot solve the problems. I wouldn't go back.

A small but very nice boutique hotel midst in Tham

A very nice hotel in the middle of Thamel. Very nicely decorated with a quiet garden in the courtyard, where the restaurant is also located. Our room (Super Delux) was very spacious and traditionally decorated. The staff is very helpful and friendly. every time we come to kathmandu we stay at this hotel at the beginning and end of our trip and will continue to do so. It almost feels like coming home.

Great place to stay in the heart of Thamel

We had an excellent stay at the Ambassador Garden Home. The location is right in the heart of Thamel and we loved walking about the neighborhood. Great options for cafes, bars, and restaurants all around. The staff at the hotel were super helpful and friendly. Great breakfast served each morning. And they helped us arrange taxis, and whatever else we needed! Rooms were clean, bathrooms were nice, hot shower, wifi! I highly recommend staying here!

It's very central in Thamel, so lots happening here, but our room was very quiet at night, the beds comfortable. Breakfasts (included) we're very good, the excellent Nepali coffee served in Bozeman with hot milk : yums.

Ich habe mich sehr wohlgefühlt in diesem Hotel. Ganz generell wird mir Nepal in sehr positiver Erinnerung bleiben, das liegt natürlich auch an den Menschen im Ambassador. Ich würde jederzeit wieder in diesem Hotel absteigen. Die Lage ist ausgezeichnet. Auch das Essen ist sehr gut. Besonders hervorheben muss ich Krishna - der Mensch ist eine unglaublich gute Seele.

Don’t get fooled by the big discount price.

Not sure how this hotel is worth the regular price quoted and is always on sale at about $55 which represents about 60% of the regular rate. I thought it was a great deal until I arrived. Rooms are dated, security of the rooms are poor using a padlock to lock the door, AC leaked water onto the floor, no sound proofing, poor access having to continually jump a puddle of water to the entrance, just not worth it compared to some of the other places available. Stayed for 5 days and then moved to another hotel for the next 5 days. Will not stay here again and would not recommend this place.

Fabulous fr a solo female traveler.

This place was wonderful. Everyone was welcoming and as a single women traveler, I felt very safe. There were some quirks: the air conditioner didn’t work and I had to move to another room after I unpacked. Some of the lights didn’t work and the fan in the bathroom didn’t work. The place was very clean and the decor was very thoughtful. The food was delicious and the breakfast that came with the stay was delightful. I do have one word of caution, beware of Vicki the manager, he is quite a player. He knows EVERYTHING! So he claims.
