Great location and lovely setting - quiet plaza in the middle of the property with good dining, coffee and bars. Heritage property and room layout slightly odd. Huge rooms and comfy bed. WiFi not great in the rooms and TV didn’t work. Being an older property plug points not where you would need them to be. Great property for its history.

I stayed here for 2 nights before and 1 night after a trekking expedition. It’s my first time in Kathmandu, so nothing to compare it to, but nice and convenient in the middle of Thamel. Hotel is pretty clean, the staff are really helpful. I was able to leave a bag at the hotel whilst away trekking and the staff booked a taxi to the airport for me.

The property has a wonderful garden where all can share, it is centrally located in Thamel, and the hotel is gated at both ends giving a sense of great security. I am at the room which can be improved to give it a modern facility. Overall it has a much better condition than many hotels in Thamel

The Kathmandu Guesthouse is the first Guesthouse in Kathmandu. Its rich history only adds to the atmosphere of the place. The service is always excellent. The Staff is always professional and ready to assist you with any questions or problems you may have. The rooms are always clean and very comfortable. The food is outstanding. The service is five star. I have stayed here many times during my seven visits to Nepal. The Kathmandu Guesthouse is an experience of exceptional hospitality and excellence!

A guest house full of history, character & charm.

It would be nice to have had a hair dryer in the room or bathroom. Also, 1 outer, small top window would not completely close so some of the warmth was lost & the sounds of the streets entered the room.

The original KGH is now a distant memory

Good old KGH remains my favourite place in Kathmandu. It went through an overdue renovation recently and unfortunately it lost a bit of its soul in the process. What remains though is a great hotel, fantastic location, nice rooms and the garden remains a great meeting and dining place.
