Everything was absolutely excellent! The guys at the reception helped me with everything: booking flight ticket, getting a sim card, laundry, and the owner helped me with the trekking details to ABC. The atmosphere there with other travellers is incredible!
唯一不足是上厕所要爬到五楼,半夜起床上厕所不方便
立地、シャワー、Wi-Fi、部屋などで特に困ったことはなく普通に良かった。

Tuve una muy buena experiencia en este hostel. El personal fue muy amable, atento y siempre dispuesto a ayudar. Todo estuvo muy bien durante la estancia, las instalaciones cumplieron perfectamente con lo esperado y el ambiente fue agradable. Además, la ubicación es excelente, muy bien comunicada y cerca de muchos lugares de interés. En general, una experiencia muy positiva y un lugar que recomendaría sin duda.
Excellent staff and services is perfect

スタッフの愛想がとてもよかった
路地の奥にあるのでわかりずらい時もある
Clean and comfortable room. Friendly staff, restaurant also available downstairs. Location is great. Pramod is very helpful with booking further treks and transport etc.
No accessibility for suitcases, had to carry my suitcase up and down three flights of stairs.
Great location. Clean.
Lack of vegan alternatives for breakfast menu. No soya milk or vegan wholewheat bread available. No TV in room. A nearby hotel, similar room price came with a pool. * No attached bath/shower room in female dormitory. Have to share toilets/shower with male guests.
A great place to stay at the heart of Thamel but yet quite and relaxed! Rooms are spacious and bright, beds are comfortable, common showers and toilets are regularly cleaned, hot water, nice food at the restaurant throughout the whole day and super nice and helpful staff. Don't have anything negative to say about this hostel even if I tried.
Amazing experience
地點不錯,房間蠻乾淨的
廁所在最樓頂上
Great stay. Staff are so friendly and helpful and good food everything perfect.
A good basic stay in Kathmandu! It was a great location near some fun shopping in Thamel and a short walk to Durbar square. Beds and facilities were comfortable and basic.
The hostel operates with a high end service level. Very impressive for a hostel
有空调,硬件设施不错
一起住的有会晚上聊天的,规则不佳,还有穿鞋进入
I had a delightful three-night stay at this place. I highly recommend it. The cleanliness was impeccable, and each bed had its own privacy, which is perfect for introverts like me who prefer solitude.
It feels like home. A lot more than just a hostel.
A great place to socialize and make new friends.
Everything about this hostel is fantastic. Highly recommend for backpackers and trekkers. 10/10 for this segment for business
Could not have had a nicer stay here
convenient
The hostel is clean and quiet! the downstairs garden and dining room are suit for chatting,working,drinking and meditating in day and night! They provide delicious foods all day long,including breakfast in early morning ,as well as laundry service. You may find assistance from the reception as you required! Definitely recommend to accommodate again. The location is wonderful like a paradise garden among bustling Thamel
Perfect hostel situation in a great spot in the Thamel area. Really good vibe here, the staff are so friendly and attentive, the garden area is beautiful and the food is great. The price is so so good for this place and the beds are really comfy, I’d highly recommend!
The showers weren’t always hot
Location was great, place was clean, staff were helpful and courteous.
Amazing experience in this hostel - i had a great stay. Everything is awesome: location, food, service and staff. Will stay here again for sure! Recommended.
The stay was very very beautiful. It's right in the city area, well connected and the cafe has great choices. A very well rounded and comfortable stay.
My trip was too short 😞
I love how the staffs are very accomodating with all my request. Thanks to Pramod for always helping me with anything especially when am getting lost and can't find the location :) Also, food are freshly prepared in the restaurant.
Awesome hostel to stay in the heart of thamel. If you need a good hostel in Kathmandu don't think twice, this is a perfect hostel with very friendly staff and always full with fellow travellers. the price/quality its insanely good.
Very Bad service. Tried calling them so many times to seek help reaching there. I'm a woman solo traveler. Unfortunately I didn't get any response.
Very Bad service

The staff were friendly and very helpful The dorm rooms were spacious with the wooden sraircase making access even to the top bunk easy and gave each bedspace extra privacy This is an amazing spoy to start and end your trekking trip with the hostel also providing free storgae for your belongings that you will not be requiring
Nice people, booked the Manaslu trek through this hostel (thanks Pramod), it was one of the best experiences ever, and have been back to this hostel every time I've been back in Kathmandu so far.

The best! Safe, and close to everything. They can also book a jeep slot for you to the next trekking location.
The staff is good and it feels like people from all over the world have gathered here, like a local community. You get to explore and find People's from all over the places.
Its good, nothing bad
Tucked in a garden full of tables and seats to relax, away from the crazy city noise, best restaurant food I ate in Katmandu. Very courteous and knowledgeable staff.
All the above written
The hostel itelf is amazing and the staff is super friendly. Nice area and nice vibe too.
There were bed bugs in my room 202.
Amazing hostel but unfortunately bed bugs in my room 202.
Personnel très aimable et gentil, cuisine excellente, ambiance sociale
Ventilateurs bruyants
Really good location and super friendly staff. The rooftop and balconies were really lovely and the bathrooms/showers were always clean. Beds have curtains and lockers. Storage room to put bags in after checkout.
Rooms aren’t huge but they are good value for money.
乾淨友善,離市區近
J’ai voyagé pendant 3 mois en Asie, et c’est de loin le meilleur hostel dans lequel je suis allée. Le personnel est adorable, c’est super propre et confortable, il y a un restaurant en terrasse où on peut se poser tranquillement (non négligeable dans une ville aussi vivante que Katmandou 😁). Super rapport qualité-prix, que ce soit en dortoir ou en chambre, vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés. Si vous prévoyez de faire un trek ils peuvent garder les affaires dont vous n’avez pas besoin.
Rien.
ruhiger Innenhof (nebst der Baustelle), tolles Ambiente, man trifft viele andere Backpacker und kann sich austauschen
Baustelle nebenan war ziemlich laut tagsüber
Kwabahal is in a prime location in the Thamel area, really central and walkable to lots of shops and restaurants. The social area is also great for meeting other travellers and just relaxing for a break from Kathmandu chaos.
The showers weren’t always warm and there were some plumbing issues. All good aside from this
The staff was very friendly and helpful, making me feel super welcome. My room is clean and spacious enough for throwing stuff around while planning for the trek. Location is amazing as well. Everything is within 5-10 minutes walk from the hotel.
Très bien situé et au calme. Le personnel est super. La cour intérieure est très agréable et le restaurant est bon.
Le prix est quand même élevé pour un dortoir. Location d'essui payante.
La chambre est super (dortoir de 4), elle est calme et donne sur une jolie cour. Les lits sont confortables, c'est super agréable pour un dortoir ! L'endroit en lui même avec la terrasse est top ! Le restaurant est très bon.
Éventuellement le fait que les salles de bain soient mixtes
上下舖的房間格局很酷,基本上睡哪個位子都可以有對外窗!位置就在thamel區逛街很方便(只要小心不要被沒標價的店盤)木製的床睡起來也很舒服,樓下就有餐廳咖啡廳,可以在那裡吃早餐或是下午茶,價格合理也好吃,櫃檯基本上都有人可以協助訂票或是行程相關的問題
床單有起毛球,所以摸起來沒有那麼舒適,沒有吹風機和沒有洗髮精(肥皂可以另外跟他要)不算是有大廳,因為在樓下坐著就要看店家的眼色,最好還是要點個飲料才能坐,不然就要到頂樓的座位區(只是去的時候很冷所以沒有人)
Great hostel. The rooms are comfortable, the bathrooms are clean, and the restaurant has such a vibe. The rooms have smallish lockers for each bed (bring a lock). The staff were so friendly and the French toast was actually to die for.
地點方便,床鋪也很乾淨舒適。
廁所和衛浴設備在遙遠的頂樓,此外浴室沒有任何可以暫時放置洗澡用品的地方。掛鉤也在會弄濕的蓮蓬頭旁邊,整個洗澡很麻煩。
Thanks for a wonderful stay. Everything was great and the staff was so helpful. 🙏🤗👏
Perfectly situated for a stay in Kathmandu’s center
Everything, from stay to vibe everything felt like home.
Everything was on point, there’s nothing to complain.
