This place is a hidden gem that I have stayed in on two separate trips to Nepal. There are many places in this price range, but I have found few Who is facilities are so well-maintained. The staff is one of the main reasons I will return. A great location to stay if you’re hoping to be right in the middle of it all in Themal

The staff is absolutely amazing. Raj was wonderful helping me with taxis, excursions, and even helped me with my phone when it was having issues. Bicum, Nisan, Noraj and Ram are awesome. They are extremely friendly, helpful and kind. They all really made my stay very nice. The hotel is in a great location, with many shops and restaurants in close walking distance. The breakfast is very good as well. And the cook is very good. I spent three very enjoyable weeks at this hotel. I look forward to returning in the future.

If travelling to Kathmandu I thoroughly recommend this Hotel as your base. In Thamel but quiet enough at night to get a restful sleep. More importantly the manager sets an amazing tone and welcomes you warmly from the get go. Nice to be greeted by forst name basis. All other staff are friendly too. Rooms spacious . No faults here!!! Well done to everyone here, it’s appreciated

This hotel had excellent reviews. The price was good, so I booked it. I was not disappointed. The manager, Raj & his staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. I could feel the warmth & friendship of the hotel as soon as I arrived. Nothing is to much trouble for them. I leave today for Pokhara, but will come back & stay here again next week when I return. Strongly recommend this hotel. You simply can not go wrong staying here. Its excellent.

Hotel Friend's Home had excellent service. There is 24 hr check in which is great for international travel. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It's affordable but they will treat you like you're a 5 star client. Pro-tip if you're sight seeing or need a cab they can hook you up with the best deal!
