Find 3-Star Hotels in Kathmandu

The owner of the guesthouse was incredibly hospitable, which was lovely. The breakfast was also delicious. The location was great too; it was quiet despite being in the heart of the Thamel area, and there are plenty of shops nearby. The room was very clean and tidy. The only minor issue I noticed was that while the sink had hot water, the shower was only lukewarm. It gets cold at night in winter, so I would have preferred hotter water for the shower. Despite that, I was totally satisfied overall and would love to stay here again.

I recently stayed at Temple Suites Kathmandu during my Eid vacation in Nepal, and it was one of the highlights of my trip. The hotel offers excellent value for money, with clean and comfortable rooms in a convenient location. What impressed me the most was the complimentary breakfast, which was fresh, delicious, and a great way to start each day of exploring Kathmandu. A special thanks to Mr. Ruz Nath, the hotel manager, whose hospitality and kindness made our stay even more memorable. He was always friendly, helpful, and genuinely cared about the comfort of his guests. As a Bangladeshi traveler, I felt especially welcomed and appreciated his warm and sincere support throughout my stay. If you are looking for an affordable, comfortable, and guest-focused hotel in Kathmandu, I highly recommend Temple Suites Kathmandu. The combination of excellent service, great hospitality, and good value makes it a wonderful choice for travelers visiting Nepal. Thank you to the entire Temple Suites Kathmandu team for making our trip so enjoyable. I look forward to staying here again on my next visit to Nepal. 🇳🇵❤️

Baudha Apart Hotel The Air is much cleaner at these heights. A lovely view to be seen from the roof top upon the city down below. There is a room up there, for yoga, for exercise, or meditation. An elevator takes you there, but you can climb the stairs, if you wish, especially to prepare for a mountain trek – there is an ample storage room in that regard. Boudha Apart is owned by a Sherpa family, originally from Lukla, so there are many good contacts with the high mountain community. The hotel is fairly new, and that means nothing is broken. That is to say also, that it is well maintained, that the guests are not a rowdy sort, and they are mindful of each other's tranquility. The rooms are well thought out, and many have a sun facing balcony. Both sink and shower have abundant hot water, adjustable as you like. On the ground floor is a large restaurant, with a diverse menu of local cuisine, and western comfort foods. The basement is a parking garage for cars and bikes. The staff is of good cheer, and supportive of your adventures and plans. They, most conveniently, pick up and deliver to the airport. There is also a car and driver for various tours, as you will. And finally to say, the price to value is most fair, as one compares to other hotels in the region.

After four stays at Madhuban Hotel, it’s safe to say this is my go to spot in Kathmandu. Whether I'm here for leisure or an extended business trip, it never fails to provide exactly what I need. By now, the staff feels like family, and the consistency is impressive. Having a reliable elevator, a great breakfast spread, and the convenience of a 10-minute walk to Thamel makes life so much easier when you’re based here for a while. If you’re tired of the uncertainty of finding good hotels, just book this one. It’s the perfect blend of comfort, location, and genuine hospitality. Looking forward to my next visit!

Hotel Yala Peak – A Cozy Gem in the Heart of Thamel I recently stayed at Hotel Yala Peak during my visit to Kathmandu, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Tucked away in a quiet alley in the bustling Thamel area, this hotel is the perfect balance between peace and convenience. Rooms: The rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Mine had a great view of the inner courtyard, and the bed was surprisingly soft. Hot water and good Wi-Fi were consistently available, which is a big plus! Service: The staff here are truly outstanding. Friendly, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. Whether it was arranging airport pickups, tours, or just recommending places to eat, they went above and beyond. Location: Ideal for tourists. You're minutes away from shops, restaurants, and trekking gear stores, but the hotel is just far enough from the main street to feel calm and relaxed. Price: Great value for money. The rates are budget-friendly without compromising on comfort or cleanliness. Extras: They also offer luggage storage for trekkers, which is super convenient, and the rooftop is a nice place to unwind. Overall: Highly recommended for solo travelers, couples, and trekkers. If you're looking for a safe, clean, and affordable place in Kathmandu with genuine hospitality, Hotel Yala Peak is a fantastic choice.

Had a terrible experience at this hotel - booked it as a first stop in Kathmandu on arrival in Nepal, place to put my luggage while trekking and a last night before flying out of the country. There is no provision for bag check - no tag given or the like. Asked if could leave / check my bag was told yes and to leave infront of front desk. Two weeks later when I returned to the hotel bag was still in the lobby infront of front desk. Things were missing of course - none of great enough value to argue, but the fact they couldn’t even be bothered to move the bag a few feet to a closet / holding space or the like is indicative of the way this place rolls. Tried to book a shuttle for early morning to airport through hotel, listed as included service. Despite confirming and reconfirming, they arranged nothing. Instead at 5:15 AM it became a game of let’s make a deal and see how much we can charge while providing no evidence there was even a driver. In the end I gave up and carted my luggage to the street to get a taxi. Nepal is a wonderful country - this hotel was a consistent bad experience. Rooms themselves are meh - didn’t try the free breakfast, on site restaurant was pretty good, atmosphere/ food. This isn’t a cheap hotel by local standards - for the price point there are much / many options in the area.

The room made a decent first impression and did the bare minimum. But, it quickly became clear that it’s best suited for a very short stay. The bed was comfortable enough. Overall, the room is fine if you’re just passing through, but anything longer starts to feel like stretching it. Staff presence around the hotel was limited. They clearly run on a lean operation, which can go either way. The guard in front of the elevator stood out in the best possible way and added a genuinely warm, human touch, which helped balance things out. At check-in, I was given two complimentary cocktail coupons for the upstairs bar, which immediately lifted my spirits. This was a place I had enjoyed many times before and often recommended to friends and family. I had good memories of the atmosphere, the food, and the general vibe, so I went in with high hopes. In the past I had written raving 5-star reviews of their restaurant food and amazing service! Unfortunately, the experience that followed didn’t live up to those expectations. What should have been a simple, enjoyable night out unraveled into confusion and unwelcoming interactions. Small moments piled up, the mood shifted, and it became clear that the experience had gone off the rails. Rather than force it, my group and I decided to take our time and money elsewhere. Sometimes you read the room and move on. I returned to the hotel later that night and stayed over. Took a hot shower in the morning, loved the smell of their body wash, btw! Another brief interaction during checkout reinforced the same theme: rigid, abrupt, and lacking the kind of hospitality that makes guests feel welcome. All in all, it’s disappointing to see a place I once enjoyed and freely recommended lose its consistency and warmth. I’m no longer comfortable recommending it, and I’m not sure I would choose to return. As for the unused cocktail coupon, I still have it. Any takers?

I stayed for a little over a week at BnB Mhepi in Kathmandu, and I can confidently say that if you are looking for a five-star experience, this is the right place. The hotel is located just outside Thamel (far enough to avoid the large tourist crowds and overpriced restaurants), yet close enough to remain convenient. This location allows guests to enjoy a more authentic local Nepali experience. The property itself is excellent: well maintained, very clean, and thoughtfully managed. The staff and management are truly outstanding. Mani and his team provided exceptional service throughout my stay, assisting with transport bookings, offering valuable local recommendations, organizing tours at prices significantly lower than many local agents or online platforms, and taking care of room service, wake-up calls, and much more. What stood out most was how genuinely attentive and approachable the staff were. They consistently checked in about my day and my plans in Kathmandu, clearly demonstrating their commitment to ensuring guests have the best possible experience while exploring their beautiful country. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Kathmandu. If I ever return, I will not consider staying anywhere else.

I stayed for 2 nights, it didn't feel safe for me as a solo woman traveller. One the first night around 11pm there were 3-4 men shouting and laughing and knocked my door. I was scared and called the reception. The phone wire was not connected to the phone, i have to hold it tight to the phone while i was speaking. It was a terrifying experience. When in emergency even the phone wasn't working! the receptionist took 30 min to for the men to calm down. The next day morning the receptionist told me they men moved out. But i saw them in the evening in the hotel. Didn't feel safe. Again, the men, shouting and aloud. Still i couldn't sleep there, awake whole two nights i stayed there, didn't feel safe. The place was clean. Location was good.

Because I didn't catch the plane, I found a small hotel temporarily in the early morning. facility: Although the hotel is small, the hardware facilities are relatively good in Nepal, which is good. There is air conditioning, hot water and card swipe door locks, which are advanced. But there is no hair dryer either… health: I still saw the hair... environment: Room comfortable Serve: The breakfast provided is relatively simple (Picture 6 is the breakfast menu) The service attitude of the staff at night is good, but the service attitude during the day is average. In the evening, my friend in Kathmandu sent me to the hotel to pick up my luggage and take me to the airport. The hotel staff was even more hospitable.
