Description

From The Beatles and Lonely Planet’s Tony Wheeler in the 1970s, legendary mountaineers, authors and explorers in the ‘80s & ‘90s to present-day parliamentarians, presidents and world-famous artists, the Kathmandu Guest House (KGH) has been housing travelers since 1968. From the iconic Heritage Building built in 1902 to the modern-designed rooms in the new annexes, the KGH has always been at the top of restoration and upgrading every year. Being in the heart of Thamel, the KGH is known as a landmark, as it was the KGH that started the tourist hub of Thamel.

Within the compounds of KGH, luscious 15,000 sq. ft. of manicured garden with mango, pomelo, multi colored bougainvillea trees & well curated art, you can enjoy solitude, laughter with friends, or the sun with a cold drink or a hot cup of Himalayan coffee.

With the recent opening of the Museum of Nepali Art (MoNA) and the Kathmandu Art House within its premises, the Kathmandu Guest House (KGH) stands as one of the very few hotels in the world to house a world-class museum. MoNA is dedicated to celebrating the works of living Nepali artists, spanning the spectrum from traditional to contemporary visual arts. Meanwhile, the Kathmandu Art House offers a vibrant open studio experience where guests can meet artists in action, engage with their creative process, and purchase original artworks on the spot.

KGH is an immersive experience, tastefully serving authentic Nepali, Chinese, Indian and Continental cuisine with most probably the best Himalayan coffee. One can also enjoy a Nepali tea ceremony experience with flagship store of Nepal Tea Collective. The rooftop lounge on the 7th floor is a perfect sundowner to view the Swayambhunath Stupa in the Himalayan sunset.

With 115 different priced rooms, the size and views may be a bit different, but our hospitality is the same. Being one of the earliest running hotels of Nepal, we take pride in our values and serve all our guests with warmth.

The grounds of the hotel are beautiful and the service, as well as the food is excellent. The rooms however, are very old and small (we were able to change rooms after bringing this up with reception). The location is in Thamel and getting to nearby attractions is convenient

It's OK. The garden is very nice. The room is average
06.01.2025
I booked 2 standard rooms and it was very disappointing. The room is small, 3.5m x 3.5m wide, corner of bed to toilet is about 1m. Thecroom, bed, mattress are very worn out and old. Looked very different from the beautiful garden and reception area outside.

Another disappointment was, i booked 2 standard room for 3 adults through trip.com,. In my confirmation email, it was stated as room includes 2 breakfast per room. occupancy of the room is Max 2 persons. However, the hotel insisted that I must pay USD15 for the 3rd person because the email they received from trip.com is for 2 standard rooms with 2 adults but this doesn't make sense to me. If the max occupancy is 2 person each room with 2 breakfast then why should there be an extra charge.
It's the worst guesthouse I ever stayed in kathmandu. There are many options in thamel with the amount paid, I definitely will not return to this guesthouse.

The room is a bit small, the bath water is too hot, the garden is beautiful, and the breakfast coffee is very hot
21.10.2024
Very famous hotel, many foreigners, many celebrities stay, but the facilities are a bit old
07.10.2024
I stayed in a standard room, not a deluxe room, which cost 325 RMB per night. I walked past the garden of this hotel and was attracted by the beautiful garden, so I booked a room from Ctrip. I didn't expect that the room was very different from the garden. First of all, the area of ​​the standard room was only about 10 square meters, and the quality of the bedding was similar to that of domestic guesthouses, and certainly not as good as the bedding of Home Inn or Hanting.
