This place is super special. A little oasis with great walkability to the sites in Thamel. The grounds and building are absolutely stunning. We loved the free rooftop yoga every morning and the free heritage walk around Thamel. Every detail of the building is absolutely beautiful--truly like staying in a sacred temple. If you are looking for a unique and authentic Nepali experience in the heart of Thamel, this is the place.
Centrally located quiet hotel. Very pleasant staff

The building is incredible, showcasing the temple design. The room is large and spacious.
The staff were 10/10 - had great food each night. And the option to do yoga and a heritage walk really made the stay special.

Very friendly and accommodating staff. Hotel is very clean and located along a more quite street. The airport transportation isn't included. You need to pay the taxi. No exercise room, but the do have rooftop yoga every day. Make sure you select the breakfast option, otherwise breakfast is extra.
Overall, i would gladly stay here again.
The staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating. They went over and above to assist me in finding a taxi and ensuring all went well. My highest recommendations!
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely establishment. The staff was very attentive and kind. The restaurant was very good and we appreciate the fact that they source organically and locally. The premises and accommodations themselves were what attracted us in the first place, as you feel you are in a different era, being constructed in a beautiful historical style. Very special vibe! We highly recommend the Kantipur Temple House as a rarity amidst all the hotels in the Thamel area.
The Kantipur Temple in Kathmandu, Nepal, stands as an architectural testament to the rich cultural and religious heritage of the region. Renowned for its intricate design and historical significance, the temple attracts visitors seeking to explore the intricacies of Nepalese craftsmanship and spirituality. Its well-preserved structure and serene ambiance contribute to a meaningful cultural experience for those interested in the religious tapestry of Kathmandu.
I had a really great stay here. First, the building is amazing. Staying in a beautiful setting like this really added to my experience in Kathmandu. Second, the staff is great. From thoroughly cleaning my room each day (more than is typical at a hotel) to making sure my bed was heated at night, they were attentive to all my needs. Third, the breakfast buffet was great. They also augmented it with some Nepali cuisine cooked to order. The only negative is that I seemed to have an allergic reaction to something in the room that caused me to sneeze quite a bit.
Kantipur Temple House is a hidden gem in the Thames district of Kathmandu. Painstakingly reproduced Nepalese architecture from a bygone era. Hugely spacious and comfortable rooms. Many small alcoves to enjoy delicious Chai Masala. The food is organic and exquisite. Yoga on the rooftop. The staff goes above and beyond every expectation that I had. Unexpectedly, I met the owner one day at the front door - and we shared stories for nearly an hour. Forget the higher priced places. Kantipur Temple House is far better at half the price. When I return to Kathmandu, the only place I will consider staying is Kantipur Temple House. A big thank you from me to everyone at Kantiour the made my stay so enjoyable
Friendly and helpful staff team, hotel design blended in the traditional Nepali style. Morning yoga class in rooftop has brightened my trip up. Just to note this hotel does not have air con, nor elevator. Yet their staff can help to take your luggage to and from your room.
Hotel war gut, aber das Preis Leistungsverhältnis stimmte leider nicht. 120 Euro für Zwei Personen Pro Nacht ist für Nepal viel zu viel. Dafür muss ein außergewöhnliches Hotel geboten werden. Das war es trotz aller Bemühungen des Personals leider nicht.
