We celebrated New Year’s Eve here. Stay at his hotel made our time more comfortable in Kathmandu. Staff was very nice and accommodating. Food was also good. They accommodated our request to transfer some parts of our stay to their resort in Dhulikhel which was also very nice. Dhulikhel resort although could not accommodate our request for late check out on last day as our flight was late in the evening and that is the only daily flight. That was the only bummer. We were unwell during our stay and could have done with extra rest on the last day before taking the long flight back home.

This hotel is everything! I would live here if I could. First, the hotel itself is stunning. The founder set it up as a restoration project to save traditional Nepali wood carvings. Theyve used those items to build a gorgeous set of buildings around a courtyard. It's so peaceful compared to the area of Kathmandu right outside the doors, it's like stepping into another world. Second, the service is incredible. They upgraded us, gave a short tour of the hotel, and one staff member, Sumit, even taught us how to play the Nepali national board game. I mentioned that I wanted to buy coffee to take home and they sourced a bag for me so I wouldn't have to leave the hotel. The day I checked out I had several hours to kill - they arranged a room for me to freshen up in before I left for the airport. The experience was worth every penny, and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Kathmandu.

Exceptional service. Staff are helpful and even brought a complimentary cake to celebrate my friend’s birthday. The Taran restaurant is excellent for breakfast, so many options and selections for foods! However, the dinner items were underwhelming. Also, the door to the kitchen is noisy and distracting when dining. Overall, it was a wonderful stay in well maintained living museum to conveniently get around.

An Oasis of Calm
Dwarika’s is the perfect oasis of quiet, good taste, and a wonderful swimming pool (which unfortunately closes at 5pm). We enjoyed strolling on the street outside to some shops and simple, cheap restaurants for some Kathmandu experiences.

Oasis of calm amidst chaotic Kathmandu
Great time and amazing staff. Crazy out on the street but a courtyard oasis once inside the hotel. Not in Thamel where so many hotels which for us was a big plus. Cheap and easy to get around in taxis. Kathmandu's most outstanding hotel by far.

Dawarika’s Hotel in Kathmandu is my favorite hotel in the world. It’s not just a hotel, it is a special Nepalese experience and is an oasis amidst the chaos of Kathmandu. Built in the Architectural style of the Newari people, the hotel is a historical and cultural destination in itself. To you that off, the staff go above and beyond to make your stay spectacular and to make you feel at home. The rooms, courtyard, smells and sounds all combine to make this a very special place. The food is great too, especially the 6 course Newari meal at their Krishnapan restaurant.

We loved this hotel -- its beauty is legendary, a precious piece of the old Nepal that (in Kathmandu) sadly seems to have disappeared. But it is the staff -- especially those who welcome guests at the door -- that makes this place even more special. Their thoughtfulness, kindness, and resourcefulness are quite extraordinary. We stayed only one night en route to Bhutan. On the way back from Bhutan we had a lengthy layover. And so we returned for lunch and relaxation in the courtyard. We had used all of our cash in Bhutan and the ATM at the airport wasn't working. So we hopped in a cab without a Nepalese penny -- the Dwarika's concierge paid the cab at the door and let us add that to our lunch bill which we could charge on our credit card. Whew! Love those guys.

A super special place!
Dwarika's Hotel is a must visit! If you can stay there even better but you must go if you are in KTM. Brunch in the continental restaurant was fantastic and the specialty Nepali Restaurant was so interesting and worth a visit. This hotel and it's mission of preservation is worth the trip. The service was wonderful and the room upgrade to a Junior Suite made our last day in Nepal super special. We had a room in the main building facing the inner courtyard and it couldn't have been better, I wish we had known about this hotel on our first visit to Nepal. We will be back!

Best Hotel in Kathmandu-get a room if you can
Best hotel in Kathmandu! Perfect luxury landing from a trek to Everest Base Camp. I felt cared for and the staff anticipated but never intruded! Beautiful big rooms -I had the most basic which wasn’t basic in any way. An oasis in a very dusty city. Food is excellent, especially the Nepali restaurant. I had the smallest meal (6 courses but can go up to 20) and it was graceful, elegant and simply the best food I had my month in Nepal. Was well treated as a single woman (it was my 60th birthday present)
