Came as a solo traveler and rooms were really clean. The hostel has a very calm vibe and the roof top cafe is top notch. The staff helped me a lot to navigate the city. Especially Saroj and ganesh had enough knowledge of the activities in the city which helped me for a better stay.

Best hostel I have stayed in Kathmandu after trying several during my 3 weeks stay here. The bathroom is modern and clean, and plenty of shower and bathroom on the top floor as well. They also operate a restaurant in the garden, guest can just hang out there, the vibe is amazing. Staff are friendly and easy going. It is located in a courtyard so it is very quiet, I sleep very well every night. One thing I need to mention is the stair to get to the upper bunk, most hostel has the most awkward stair but the stair design here makes getting to the bed a breeze. The room has big window that you can open, so the room is never stuffy and smelly.

I have to say everything is perfect. It's away from bustling area, but no more than 20mins to get to the center. Everyone is lovely and helpful, including all the staffs and guests. Can't imagine a more cozy hostel than this.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location and great vibe. I met a lot of interesting people at Hostel Swastik that went on to become good friends. The staff are helpful and Bishwo the owner is a really great guy with interesting projects ongoing. I will never stay anywhere else except here whenever I'm in Bhaktapur.

    Super cozy and friendly hostel in a great location. Bishwo, the owner is very helpful and knows a lot about the area. He helped me with my indian visa and recommended the best local restaurants and places to go in Bhaktapur as well as outside the city. The hot showers work very well and the beds are comfortable. Furthermore you can use the rooftop terrace of the guesthouse just across the streets for some amazing sunset.

    I loved the atmosphere at Swastik hostel. It's a small hostel, but it has a range of different rooms and a guesthouse with private rooms nearby. The people are very chill, spontaneous and hospitable. I felt taken care of, safe and never lonely. We discovered new parts of Bhaktapur every evening for the Dashain festival and really got the local experience thanks to the host, Bishwo. And I still feel like there is loads to discover. I will be back! 😀

    The Hostel is a good place if you search for something cheaper in Bhaktapur. The owner and people there are very nice, helpful, kind and know a lot about the place and environment! They also take you to trips like a waterfall!
