If its your first time in Nepal, then this rewiew is for you. Everyone who is comming to Kathmandu has a lots of things to worry, is my hotel has hot water, or A/C, breakfast and most importantly location. Plus trip from the airport, thats something in itself. If you are want to stay in 5 star hotel, then this rewiew is not for you, just remember you will be pumper but you will not see true Kathmandu. For those who came to Nepal on very low budget this hotel will be excellent choice. I was staying first few days in Thamel of Kathmandu. After few days I have to cancelled my reservation and move to another hotel, Thamel is very clastrophobic and you can walk 5 feet without being bother by someone who wants to sell you drugs and even escort, taxi, and anything you can imagine. If you travel with kids, then stay away from that place. I made new reservation from Travelocity and move to templ inn. After staying in Thamel I was little scare to go unknow hotel. Templ inn is located cross Pashupatinath templ. Very few tourists are here( what a blessing), you can see true Kathmandu, can walk without fear, you can feel friendlines. Templ inn I was pleasantly suprised, food is just deliciouse. Frendliness of the hotel staff is overwhelming I feel like I am in 5 star hotel. Power is always on so is the A/C, hot water is always available, sometimes even to hot. When I pay my bill after stay, I was pleasantly supraise that was no hoden charges. I definitly recommend this hotel.
