I must say, after traveling 10years to Nepal regularly, staying in different places, this hotel was an amazing positive surprise to me. Build in authentic Nevari style, with so nice and professional stuff, made it my new favorite hotel in Kathmandu! Its central, though build in such a way its very quiet with the rooms turned towards the courtyard. Complimentary yoga and walk was just a cherry on the top. It was best value for money in last few years that I encountered ❤️‍🔥 ✨Love their eco butique approach with no TV!

If staying longer than 4 days the breakfast can become little repetitive, however I didnt mind. Nothing to complain about!

If you want to stay in an authentic Nepalese hotel with genuine hospitality, then the Kantipur Temple Hotel is definitely for you. The hotel is built with traditional red bricks and is decorated throughout with intricate wooden carvings and niches. It instantly gives you a sense of place and cultural authenticity. The rooms are clean and spacious. There's a pleasant terrace and lawned area outside. The hotel is very close to the hustle bustle of the shops, restaurants, cafes and bars of Thamil but inside it feels incredibly peaceful and secluded. It took us about 15 minutes to walk to Durbar Square from the hotel and the Monkey Temple is another 30 minute walk from the square. We used taxis to reach other tourist attractions, which are readily available around the hotel and very reasonably priced. It is an eco-hotel so there's no air-conditioning but the traditional design of the building with the bedroom windows facing into a deep atmospheric inner courtyard keeps the rooms shaded and cool. There is no central heating but there is an electric blanket on the bed and the staff provided us with a heater when we were a bit chilly. Similarly, when we asked for a kettle and a hairdryer, they brought us one within minutes and we were allowed to keep them for the remainder of our stay. The shower is hot and water is plentiful though guests are asked to be mindful of water wastage. The hotel makes an effort to reduce plastic waste by providing a copper pitcher of fresh drinking water in the rooms which can be replenished at reception. There is free Wi-fi. The breakfast is varied and plentiful and the service attentive. Overall, I would give top marks to this hotel for its welcoming atmosphere, its incredible serenity and its uncompromising commitment to conservation and sustainability.

After trekking in the Himalayas for 3 weeks staying at Kantipur Temple House felt like pure luxury. For us it was the perfect mix of tradition and modernity. Our room on the third floor was spacious, clean and quiet. We had endless hot water, electricity and super comfortable beds. The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. We loved the continental breakfast as well as a delicious dinner in the atmospheric hotel restaurant - can highly recommend that! The location on a quiet backstreet between Durbar Square and Thamel was ideal. We appreciated the hotel´s plastic free policy and enjoyed participating in the two activities offered by the hotel for free: a city walk and yoga class.

This hotel was special because of the outstanding helpfulness of the staff who seemed genuinly interested in the welfare of me and my travel companion. Nothing was too much trouble. Documents were printed for me, laundry arrangements made and I was even provided with a hair drier to dry out my hiking boots! After i had checked out on my final day and returned to pick up my baggage and wait for a taxi, I was offered a bed to get some rest before my long journey home. How good is that? Other good things about the hotel are 1) fabulous architectural design 2) located in a central location buzzing ith life 3) unlimited drinking water supplied automatically in a jug at your bedside and 4) they have a pretty good chef who can produce some interesting tasty meals.

They dont have an esspresso coffee machine or a swimming pool or a sauna.

The hotel itself is a classic Nepal building that is memorably designed. The location is great, just enough out of the hustle bustle of the Tamil, but very close walking distance to everything you would want to be close to. The rooms are lovely and the staff are just wonderful.

The price was a bit on the high end compared to other properties, yet there is something quite special about this place and the whole experience. Note that the wood floors are real wood, and the exposed brick walls are real brick. The incredibly professional and lovely Hotel staff and the special design of the place, which was quite unique.

Outstanding all staff members are nice, welcoming and helpful, you really feel your among friends. Whether you want to ask for directions/places to go or have a deep meaningful conversation about religion/culture philosophy/ they are there for you (shout out to all of ye!) The place is mesmerising. very authentic. Special thank for the staff always looking out for me checking on my pick up appointment and keeping my luggage during my trekking trip. Superb breakfast and great Nepali coffee. comfortable beds and very quiet at night. Being eco-friendly does not mean compromised comfort at all. if you think not having AC is a problem every room has a fan and was sufficient at least in mid Sep.

We had a fantastic stay at Kantipur Temple House. The building is gorgeous — built to modern standards but with designed thoughtfully with traditional architecture in mind. The staff were impeccably attentive and friendly. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. You can tell a lot of thought has been put into the overall design and service. Also, minutes walking distance from Thamel yet peaceful and removed from the loud noise of the city. We also met the owner who sat and spoke with us for a while, telling us about the history of the building. It was overall a really pleasant stay.

Everything was great, except it's difficult to tell what exact room you're getting when you book the reservation. We got a courtyard-facing room during our first stay, which was nice. We returned a few weeks later and received an even nicer room, facing the courtyard. Both room pictures were under the same booking so perhaps there's a way to reach out directly to confirm the room type you're getting.

Very traditional architecture design with decorations full of cultural meanings. The room is very clean and spacious. Staffs are very friendly and helpful. They helped us arranged airport pick up and send-off. The location is right in the middle of the busy marketplace with many restaurants and shops around. 15 mins walk to the Dunbar. The hotel offers a free guided walking tour to visit nearby temples and experience the local life. Breakfast is pretty good with many varieties. The staffs are super friendly and they made special pancakes for our children. The restaurant offer traditional nepalese foods as well as western food.

This is a very traditional hotel without many modern equipments. We love its genuine traditional style but if you are looking for modern convenience, it may not offer that.

After having last visited Kathmandu 27 years ago, which has not surprisingly changed considerably since then, it was so gratifying stay at the Kantipur Temple house which prides itself on maintaining Nepalese culture and traditions. The building architecture is amazing and well preserved. There's also a beautiful courtyard and lawn area to relax. Located on the outskirts of Thamel, it's walking distance to the restaurant precinct, yet far enough to escape the hussle and bussel. The highlight would have to be the staff who go above and beyond to make your stay a memorable one. We hope to be back soon..."Danyabad" 🙏

Very warm and cosy. You get to experience authentic Nepali traditional living devoid of the distractions of modern day technology. It offers a tranquil oasis with warm cosy beds and turndown service. Best sleep i have had in Thamel. The restaurant also serves the most delicious red thai curry.
