The staff was excellent, the food was incredible, and the rooms are a nice safe-haven when you are so far from home. I am so appreciative. Thank you, Hotel Encounter, for taking such great care of me! ##### Amanda Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Federico May 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities is ok ##### Federico Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MOHAMED NAHUVEE Jul 19, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was a lovely stay. I booked a standard room for one night. Upon check-in at the hotel, the administration upgraded it to a Deluxe room free of additional charges. The in-house restaurent was wonderful. Food was great. Room service was fast and excellent. I will definetly stay here next time I visit Kathmandu. Overall a wonderful experience. Highly recommended. ##### MOHAMED NAHUVEE Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Saisiri Apr 12, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The General Manager Mr. Mukunda Pokharel will quickly find you a good transport to airport or wherever you want to go in Nepal. The rooms are big by American and Thai standards. Bathrooms are big and clean. Beds are excellent big and firm exactly as we like our beds to be. Staff are super safe, friendly, funny, considerate, cheerful, discreet, helpful, and can get you any service or tour or info you can possibly need. Two big quiet gardens away from exciting busy hustle and bustle of Thamel neighborhood. Rooms are very clean. Staircase is excellent, wide, beautiful, clean all marble stone for easy fast carrying luggage and running to your free breakfast in the garden. The city of Kathmandu is currently doing a lot of road work, construction, city plumbing, so most hotels in the area temporarily (less than 1 minute) have a short blast of black or grey concrete coming from sink tap, toilet, just a few seconds, so don’t panic, it’s just the city water main lines being worked on. Some hotels also have water towers or cisterns atop their roofs to ensure you have lots of water 24/7, so dusty water for a moment might be normal. Clean water eventually comes out, you’ll be OK. Drink bottled water and use that for brushing your teeth and washing your face, you will be OK. Looking forward to our next vacation in Nepal. The cities are glorious fun chaos and dusty good fun: adventure pure and simple. Do try to escape the city for the mountains! Aloha :) Namaste! ##### Saisiri Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Catherine, Portland OR Mar 1, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff met me at the airport for US$15\. They provided bus to get to my next stop and Chitwan National Park. Room was clean and relatively quiet. Very close to the bus station to Pokhara or Chitwan. ##### Catherine Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lamakhadga, 37500 Chinon Nov 1, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities C’est excellent.

Nice area not that noisy. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Oct 9, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The location is pretty good - close to Thamel without being right in it. The room was fairly basic and could maybe do with a good renovation, but was comfortable and more than adequate for my needs. Overall, an enjoyable stay and very good value. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 3, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities They are very flexible and allow me to stay more time in the property once my flight was in the afternoon.

I had arranged for their shuttle and the driver stayed even though my flight was delayed. The courtyard is beautiful and relaxing. The view from the room was great and the service from the staff was wonderful. I had had my baggage delayed and reception helped me sort it out. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin Apr 3, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Highly recommendable Lovely hotel away from main Thamel area. Very friendly staff will do anything for you. Room size is great and fairly comfortable. Restaurant also great food and coffee. ##### Kevin Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Ulrike Mar 7, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Central and quiet Even if the hotel is situated at the north end of Thamel it is very quiet during the night. The manager and the staff are very very friendly and helpful. I recommend to take a room with gardenview. It's spacious and sunny in the morning. The bed was very comfortable and the shower worked very well. For breakfast you can choose a big variety from the menu and I was happy to find the Porridge there. ##### Ulrike Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The St. Regis Rome](https://www.expedia.ca/Rome-Hotels-The-St-Regis-Rome.h23489.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Pacific Rim National Park Reserve](https://www.expedia.ca/Pacific-Rim-National-Park-Reserve-Hotels.0-l6089611-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Canalta Hanna](https://www.expedia.ca/Drumheller-Hotels-Canalta-Hanna.h574479.Hotel-Information) > > [Crooked Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Hotels-Crooked-Lake-Resort.h31422390.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Vancouver Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Hilton-Vancouver-Downtown.h127122.Hotel-Information) > > [Lake Hotels in Kamloops](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamloops-Hotels-Lake-Hotels.0-0-d3979-tLakeHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Royalton Bavaro, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Royalton-Bavaro-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h19561825.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Patiala](https://www.expedia.ca/Patiala-Hotels.d9038.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Best Western Plus Sawridge Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-McMurray-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Sawridge-Suites.h10558325.Hotel-Information) > > [Red Jacket Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/South-Yarmouth-Hotels-Red-Jacket-Beach-Resort.h54939.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Pembroke](https://www.expedia.ca/Pembroke-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d6127342-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels.d178314.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Zuri Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Iloilo-Hotels-Zuri-Hotel.h42527852.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Seattle](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels.d178307.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Saskatoon (YXE) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxe/yeg/saskatoon-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Punjab (ISB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/isb/calgary-to-islamabad) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/lax/montreal-to-los-angeles) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Las Vegas (LAS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/las/ottawa-to-las-vegas) > > [Fiji Airways](https://www.expedia.ca/Fiji-Airways-Flights.cFJ.Travel-Guide-Airlines) ### Packages > [Las Vegas Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas.d178276.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Times Square](https://www.expedia.ca/Times-Square-Manhattan.d502080.Vacation-Attraction) ### General > [Visit Sochi](https://www.expedia.ca/Sochi.dx6084686) > > [Visit Port Renfrew](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Renfrew.dx601137)
