I had a wonderful time during my stay with Nit and Chamelee.Stepping into the third month in Nepal, I was looking for something less crowded than the tourist area, yet still easy to get around and not too far from the city center. Peace Homestay checked all the boxes.As I am also working, Nir offered to provide a table and chair for me to be able to work from inside my room.I also enjoyed the breakfast and dinner experience; it felt like home.I definitely recommend everyone to stay there while in Kathmandu.

Clean and good size room, the staffs are all so helpful and kind, very pleasant personality. Good hot shower even on rainy day. As I kept the window open at night so it's slightly noisy but I use the earplugs and slept like a baby.

I recently stayed at Zen Nest during my trip to Nepal, and it was an incredible experience. The location is perfect—right near Thamel and Basantapur, making it easy to explore the city's vibrant nightlife. The staff were exceptionally friendly, and the room was clean and incredibly comfortable. I had an amazing time and will definitely be returning to Zen Nest on my next visit!

I had an excellent experience at Homestay Book Now! From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed by the staff, who were incredibly helpful and friendly. The location is perfect – peaceful yet conveniently close to key attractions and public transport. The room was cozy and spotlessly clean, with all the amenities I needed to feel at home. I especially appreciated the attention to detail in the decor and the comfortable bed – I had one of the best night’s sleep in a long time! The free Wi-Fi and breakfast were also great perks, offering a good start to the day. The hosts were very responsive and went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed during my stay. Whether it was local recommendations or helping with transportation, they made the whole experience seamless. I would highly recommend this homestay to anyone looking for a charming, comfortable, and affordable place to stay. I will definitely return next time I'm in the area!

    The homestay is located in a very nice residential area, fully served. The room was big and the view over the mountains was stunning! The place also has a lovely rooftop where we had a beer with view 🙂 The very plus of the stay is absolutely the kindness of the host family ♥️, smiling, kind and always helpful with local advices about where to go and where to eat. They also managed to give us special trekking advices. We are definitely going to come back, as soon as we will be in Kathmandu again to catch up our flight.
