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.

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!

Unexpected gem in Kathmandu.

We had an amazing stay. Owner scheduled a car so we could travel out of city to great lookout that gave us fantastic view of the magnificent mountain range and Mt. Everest. Great breakfast each day and pizza was delicious, especially with a nice cold Nepal Ice.

We just loved the ambiance of this hotel. It wasn't pretentious, just has a very cosy,homey vibe. 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.

Not sure how this has such a high rating. It states duluxe but far from it. Very dirty, beds loose, noisy and wobbly. Shower was disgusting, with panels on the wall falling off. Much better and cheaper accommodation in that area.

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.

Good location and staff

This review has to be taken in the context of it being in Nepal, it was our first trip there and expectations have to be a bit lower! If this hotel was in Canada I would probably be giving it a lower score. The good: Location is smack in the middle of Thamel, a major tourist area, on a street that doesn't allow vehicle traffic and right opposite a decent grocery store for all those things you forgot. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms have a/c and decent windows so it was pretty quiet, although we were at the back of the hotel which I'm sure helped, I also think we had one of the biggest rooms, so we had plenty of space, others looked a bit more cramped . Included breakfast was good, WiFi was decent, and the little courtyard in the back was an oasis of calm after the hustle and bustle of Kathmandu. Beds were comfortable and decent amount of hot water. The rest: Overall the place seems a little tired, ongoing maintenance appears to be a lower priority in Nepal. Cleanliness was OK, but I don't think they actually use any cleaning supplies, just a sweep up and a wipe down with a damp cloth, which meant the bathroom often had a strange smell. Overall I would stay there again, but you have to keep your expectations realistic!
