With a garden, the 3-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen and room service for guests.

The cottage appeal is very unique for being in the center of southern Kathmandu. Once you step inside the gate, you feel like you are outside Kathmandu with the charm of the hills. Breakfast and dinners were great.

Situated in Budhanilkantha, 10 km from Kathmandu, Shivapuri Heights Cottage boasts views of the garden and Kathmandu valley. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar.

Shivapuri Heights Cottage features free WiFi throughout the property.

Shivapuri is a very special unique place, catering to all types of travellers. This is the second time that I am staying at Shivapuri and it feels like home. The owners and staff are beyond accommodating and helpful and kind. Every time I have stayed here I choose the tent option because they are the most cosy, luxury and spacious tents I have ever stayed in and the views of the surrounding hills and Kathmandhu are incredible ! I chose this place because it offers a place to rest away from the intensity of the city but not so far away that you can't get into town easily. It really is set in the most perfect location, you can choose if you want to spend the day in nature or visit the temples in Kathmandu centre. The food is exceptional, all home grown and home made and catered to your every need. I cannot recommend this place more, I will definitely come back here when I return to Nepal, it is perfect for travelling alone or with your loved ones. Thank you Shivapuri for making my stay so happy and welcoming and I look forward to visiting again soon !

Guests at the villa can make the most of yoga classes offered in-house. Sightseeing tours are available around the property. The White House Villa 8 bedroom with Swimming Pool has an outdoor fireplace and a children's playground.

The house is nice, kitchen is big. It’s a good distance from the city Center for a weekend getaway. The view from the rooftop is quite nice and we were able to sleep 11 people very comfortably. The rating would have been much higher if not for the ridiculously intrusive on site staff. If management corrects this it will be a big improvement.

    I loved my stay at Swarga that I returned again! I love when a home has been fully restored back to its heritage glory. The rooms are comfortable and the location is peaceful yet close to Thamel and the liveliness it offers. The staff are super helpful and the food delicious. Would highly recommend to book your Nepal experience at Swarga.

    Swarga Heritage Hotel was the best hotel I stayed at during my entire time in Nepal. It was perfectly located and had excellent room rates, superb staff who were always willing to help, plus an amazing breakfast served daily! The design of the hotel was so charming as well, fitted with thoughtful touches like traditional furniture and handcrafted design elements. I loved my stay here so much and wished I could have stayed a lot longer. Would wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone looking for a lovely and unique place to stay in Thamel.

    Excellent heritage property, really unusual. Loved the eco values and was great to have no TV. Was very peaceful and tranquil. Staff utterly charming and very helpful. Guided early morning tour from Bhaskar was excellent- a true gent and knowledgeable. Will definitely return on our next trip.

    Arushi offers an amazing stay in so many ways! The rooms are stylish, large, clean, modern and cozy, and the breakfast is superb with a large variety of dishes to choose from. The restaurant area as well as the rooftop bar are wonderful places to sit, enjoy food, relax and enjoy the view. There is also a gym, sauna and plunge pool! Down a quiet side street in the centre of Thamel you have an easy escape form city noise, and close to everything at the same time. I enjoyed it so much I booked a second stay at the end of my trek :)

    I stayed at Gurung's for 5 nights. My room was very clean and cozy. The staff was great and we're always willing to help in any way. The patio/restaurant area was very cosy with a filling breakfast served daily. I'd definitely come back. Thank you!

    Thamel villa heritage hotel has excellent location, it’s a budget friendly heritage stay, Prem at the reception was extremely nice and helpful, the rooms are tastefully done and cozy. one suggestion, take a package without breakfast, as the hotel doesn’t offer breakfast in their premises, you have to go to a different venue. having said that, there are amazing places that open up really early in Thamel and one can easily have their choice of breakfast there.
