The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Culinary Delights

During my stay, I had the pleasure of dining at both the rooftop restaurant and the main dining area. The freshly made naan and the tandoori chicken were simply stunning. Every meal I enjoyed was a testament to the hotel's commitment to quality and flavor. The breakfast, particularly the made-to-order puris, was a real highlight and came as a good surprise after my long flights. Overall, the dining experience was nothing short of extraordinary!

Tranquil Spa Experience

I thoroughly enjoyed my time in the spa, which offered rejuvenating massages that were much needed after my travels. The service was really good; they made sure I experienced soothing moments that helped me unwind completely. The sauna was also a fantastic addition, and I appreciated that there were no extra fees for these services. It made my stay feel luxurious and pampered.

Great Leisure Facilities

Although the pool and gym were on the smaller side, they were well-maintained and added a layer of comfort to my stay. I appreciated the availability of a sauna, which I utilized frequently. The fitness setup was perfect for a quick workout before heading out to explore Kathmandu, ensuring I could maintain my routine while enjoying some leisure time.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and nicely appointed, making it a comfortable retreat. The location was super convenient, especially being close to various sites and the airport. However, the dining experience could use some improvement as the service was a bit confusing at times. The facilities, though nice, didn't stand out as much as I had hoped for. Value for money is decent, but there are some areas that could be better.
