The staff was exceptionally Friendly, considerate, And went out of their way to be helpful. The breakfast buffet was well provisioned and offered a good variety and selection of food. The location is great for being in the center of the Thamel shopping district. However, be prepared for a lot of noise pretty much all night long. As for the Mountain View, I only wish it looked like the advertised picture.

It was a neat a tidy hotel. The room was in good order however we had an issue with a clogged shower drain as well as we were told we get a free coffee with breakfast but were charged for it anyways upon checkout. The bathroom at the restaurant also was in a somewhat questionable condition in the evening. Overall it was a pleasant property with nothing to be concerned about.

Beautiful and welcoming

The hotel is great. Happy helpful staff and location is very convenient. They’re storing my bag while I go trekking and when my flight to the mountains was cancelled yesterday they found me another room. I’ve been in three rooms . They have been comfortable and clean. My first room had a small cleaning problem which was sorted .. and that’s a lot to say as I am a clean freak. The breakfasts are lovely with a very wide choice .

Nice hotel, except for ONE untruthful staff member

The hotel was lovely, as was the room, & there was a nice restaurant w/excellent pizza across the courtyard. I did have one issue w/the hotel that still has me fuming. We booked 2 rooms (for 4 nights ea) several months prior to arrival. Friends traveling with us also booked 4-nights, but only a month or so before arrival. When we reached the hotel, they were checked into a room; when it came our turn, we were asked to take a seat. A hotel employee (assist manager??) came over & began to chat us up. Next thing we know, he's saying there's a slight problem with the electricity & A/C; he said we could have a room next door in their sister hotel for 1 night, he promised it would all be fixed by the AM, then we could move back to the main hotel. We followed him next door; both the hotel & the rooms were a few grades lower in quality. I questioned why our friends got checked in, even though we had booked months before them. I also questioned why the lights & A/C in the lobby were working fine. He had no answer so I asked to speak to the manager. When we returned to the hotel, I was quite irritated to see other guests being checked in (what happened to the electricity & A/C probs?). He spoke w/the manager & lo and behold we had our rooms -- what happened to the probs? Clearly, they had overbooked & were trying to palm us off into a cheaper room. If he had said that upfront I might have understood, but the fact that he was BLATANTLY lying to us left a very bad taste in our mouths!!!

A great place to stay!

Fabulous place to stay in Thamel! Would recommend to anyone- great price, great location, and big clean rooms. We stayed in a family room for 4 which was amazing with hand painted wooden beams. A short walk for Thamel Marketplace. Downstairs very cheap beer and good foods! Highly recommended, Thanks for the stay!

Hotel in strategic place

Hotel had free pick-up. Since our flight was delayed (mind you, majority of flights arrive late in Kathmandu), the driver held the name card and trying to find another car/van to drop us to hotel, because he had other guests to receive. We had to wait for 20 mins on road with our luggage and kid in the chilling weather till he found a driver to drop us. That was not well organized at all. Well the hotel was good with comfortable beds and clean rooms. The breakfast spread was minimal and good with choice of western spread and 1 Asian dish. The waiters were very courteous and attentive. We enjoyed the stay there.

タメルで日常レベルに近い生活ができます!

5泊しました。 タメル地区の北の端に近い立地で、メインストリートからはやや奥まった場所に建っています。周りにはスーパーや土産物屋、両替屋さんにレストランが多数あり、便利です。 朝食はコンチネンタルスタイルで、おかず系日替わりメニューが数種類に、卵料理をリクエストに応じてシェフがその場で作ってくれたり、パンも種類が豊富で毎日朝ごはんが楽しみな程良かったです。 部屋は広めです。重厚感あるブラウンとフローリング、クローゼットにベッド、壁は真っ白で、カーテンとベッドカバーの温かみのあるオレンジがいいアクセントになっています。ほとんどの部屋は北側に窓がアクセントるよう設計されているようで、天気のいい冬の朝は朝日に照らされた神々しいヒマラヤをほんの少し見ることが出来ました。 大きなクローゼットにはピンチのついたハンガーが4本、シュークリーナー、セキュリティボックスなどが用意されていて、大きさも十分です。壁にはソニーの薄型テレビが掛けられていて、写りもいいです。ミニバー風な一角には電気ポット、カップアンドソーサー、グラス、インスタントコーヒー等お茶セットがひと通り揃っていて、毎日2リットルの飲料水が必ず用意されます。お部屋でゆっくりする時に凄く使えました。更にエアコンが設置されているのには驚きました。ちゃんと動きます。 水回りはトイレと洗面台の奥にガラスで仕切られたシャワー室がある感じで、ひとりでシャワーを浴びるなら全く問題ない広さでした。水圧は弱めで、お湯が出るまで5分程度待たなければいけません。蛇口から出るお水は質が悪いようで、常に薄茶色でした。ドライヤーは部屋にないので、フロントで借ります。タオルは毎日交換してくれますが、しょっぱい色で、最初使うのに勇気が要ります。慣れればこんなものかという感じなんですが。 ベッド、枕は柔らかめです。 防音はあまり良くなく、廊下の声や足音はよく聞こえました。 スタッフは教育ご行き届いているようで、皆さん挨拶は当たり前で、気さくに話しかけてくれました。 入口ドアにはガードマンがいて、安心です。 他のタメル地区のホテルにもいくつか泊まりましたが、同じようなお値段でも、ここはダントツで設備がよく、自分の家のように快適に過ごせました。

New Hotel, Great Location, Good Value

My stay at Apsara was a good value for the money. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Continental breakfast was average although not much variety day-to-day. The room was nice overall - bed was comfortable, bathroom clean, and the water always hot. Wi-fi coverage was poor, the room didn't have a fireplace as stated in the booking information, nor was there a bathtub. When I asked these were not available. A room on the upper floors is nice to minimize the noise of busy Kathmandu.
