Reviews and Ratings
I loved the hotel's location, right in the heart of the lively Bahktapur old town with lots to explore around, although being on the Dattretraya square meant it was a bit noisy at times. The rooms were spacious and boasted an excellent coffee machine, but not having an individual boiler was a drawback. The service was top-notch with a range of convenient amenities offered. The dining experience with seasonal products was exceptional. Although the facilities were great, there were minor inconveniences like the need to pay for airport shuttle service.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, nestled on a charming ancient square a bit away from the central square. The rooms were cozy and clean, equipped with an excellent coffee machine, but it would have been even better with a larger bathroom. The service was impeccable, offering convenient amenities like car hire and tours/ticket assistance. However, the dining experience lacked variety in menu options. The facilities were well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
