Kathmandu Small Hotels - Reviews and Rates

After 24 hours in transit at Singapore and Delhi airports with flights in between, we finally arrived in Kathmandu and found a guesthouse relatively easily - even managed to persuade the taxi driver to take us straight there instead of to one of his recommendations! Had great fun exploring the narrow streets (you have to watch every step if you ...

Arrival via taxi. Once you get out of the airport, you are acosted by a crowd of taxi drivers, all of whom are keen to source your business. A tactic I have seen and used in other countries e.g. Thailand is that they hit you with rapid fire questions: Where are you going? Where are you staying? You got trekking? Which company? Where you going to...

pour l'instant (03/09/2008), on envisage passer de Lhasa a Kathmandu par la chaine de l'Himalaya. 27/10/2008 Kathmandou, apparemment 2eme ville la plus polluee au monde, est en effet extremement sale et bruyante. Ville la plus pauvre que nous ayons vu jusqu'a present, ses habitants sont cependant les plus accueillants et ouverts!

Nepal is like a strange mountain oasis after the endless heat of the low ground of India. Everything here is just like I had imagined it, but there are so many surprises waiting around every corner! Kathmandu is a huge city that is sectioned off into areas with no addresses, only names responsible for a few square blocks. I am staying in the out...

Kathmandu, only one thing I can say chaos !!! It is like what you would expect to see in a turn of the last century film with an English Gentleman in India. Small narrow dirt streets with rickshaws and masses of people...... We got to Nepal to meet with the rest of our expedition team and to get our equipment. We even had equipment hand made of ...

It is a early start today as we need to be at the airport early for check in. There looks like that quite a few are returning to Kathmandu today including Joe and his team and a german group. the baggage allowance per person is 15kg, but if you are in a large group your bags are weighed together and an average total is made with excess onlyu on ...

Esta tarde, despues de una hora y media de vuelo + media hora para aparcar el avion (...no tenia parking reservado, y hemos tenido que esperar un poquito hasta que otro avion nos ha dejado el sitio!), por fin he llegado a Nepal! Kathmandu, por lo que me han contado es tambien bastante grande, y con mas polucion incluso que Delhi, pero no es la i...

My first full day in Asia...wow. I hadn't been killed or kidnapped or anything bad that loads of people back home said would happen when you go off travelling on your own (this from people whose idea of travelling barely extends beyond their own county, let alone using a passport.) Kathmandu - at the time I thought it was crazily busy but in hin...

Due to poor planning and dodgy management by Peregrine Travel (our tour operator) we had to return to Kathmandu and take a flight to Delhi, India. Instead of travelling by land into India as originally planned. The reasons I will refrain from getting into here to avoid feeling the frustrations again. Back at Kathmandu, we had a free day in which...

Our trip to Nepal started a bit rough, as Reza was stricken with his souvenir amoeba from Hong Kong. The first outing here consisted of going to the travel clinic, which was an adventure in itself. The friendly hotel staff here called a taxi to bring us to the clinic, but the driver was not familiar with the location, so we were dropped off at a...
