Search hotels in Lalitpur

After being kept awake by barking dogs over 10 sleepless nights in Kathmandu’s Thamel zone, I decided to go upmarket for 5 days in a location away from the noise and pollution. Purna’s photos make it look like a typical Indian pseudo palace hotel, but the hotel is in reality more elegant and refined. The owner’s main business is renovating historic Nepali temples in the traditional style, and the hotel showcases the woodwork the traditional Newari style, including its own small museum of carved artefacts. The carpentry throughout varies from very fine to rather rough and ready, but it feels authentic to the vernacular of ancient Nepal. The hotel is spread across several buildings at different levels surrounding garden enclosures, and includes a swimming pool. The view looks over Kathmandu city from a high vantage point. It’s on the outskirts of the built-up region of Kathmandu and Patan, and mostly free of traffic and barking dogs. The room was nicely appointed. The commodious breakfast plate included both a continental array – juice, coffee, fruit salad, porridge with honey, plus toast, butter & jam & a combined full English breakfast - omelette, sausages, baked beans, fried tomato & salad. The coffee is fine. The lunch/supper options have very reasonable prices. The service was exemplary – kind and courteous! Worth visiting: To escape the hubbub, Godawari Botanical Gardens is definitely worth a visit - feels very natural with families dancing on the lawns to Nepalese folk music and children splashing in the streams. 20min taxi drive – recommend the Pathao app to book cars or bikes at a cheaper rate. Sirupate Trout Farm Restaurant, 15mins drive. The trout is fresh straight from the farm water troughs beside the restaurant – Cost 1800NR per kg ($13 or £10). 1/2kg was big enough for 2. Don't confuse venue with 'Village Trout Farm' situated 200m before Sirupate's location.

Amazing hotel for stay . I found very good hospitality.☺️ All standard facilities and very heplful staff. I loved the hotel very much ☺️. On

Great location, in Thamel but in a quiet side street. The staff is particularly attentive and will go beyond expectations to help. Very new and clean.

We loved everything of our stay! The hotel is in the center of the city,in Thamel,close to all shops and restaurants however is in a beautiful location where we could also rest from the busy Karmandu city. The building is clean and the rooms are lovely,the stuff of the hotel is friendly, well prepared and made us feel at home for all our stay! We also book some excursions with the hotel and everything was planned perfectly. We had an amazing tour. The food is delicious, Rudra and his stuff helped us with all our needs, such as a vegan menu under request. We will truly suggest this place and we hope to come back very soon!

Everything was great. The staff is nice and helpful, the breakfast is so delicious. This was like home away from home. I recommend it !

Everything was great! Beautifully decorated, clean, super comfy huge bed. Location great, 5 min walk from central Thamel but quiet. In the pros, the rooftop terrace with views to the city and Monkey Temple.
