Noisy people in the swimming pool during the night.

Lovely pool. Decorated with taste. Traditional architecture. Close to Thamel.

Nothing

Always happy to come back to the Manaslu, beautiful Newari style hotel, beautiful gardens, great staff, excellent breakfast.

Stayed in May 2025

The windows of our second-story room were covered with traditional-style shutters, limiting light and making it difficult to see outside. There is no elevator.

The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Built in 1972 with traditional Nepalese wooden features, this charming hotel is at the end of a crooked alley. It is within walking distance to Thamel and Durbar Square, but far enough away to be quiet. There is only the one road to get to the hotel; don't trust GPS directions that suggest coming in from the back. We learned this the hard way on foot, and later had to convince a taxi driver not to follow his phone directions.

Lovely Hotel. The staff are exceptional.

We loved the heritage of the hotel, garden and swimming pool area perfect for relaxing, the room was lovely with crisp white sheets. The only small negative was the shower was small and a little tired and no nice toiletries to use but we had our own so didn’t detract from the stay

Lovely room with a balcony which we enjoyed sitting out on.

Like everything

The beautiful property!! We have stayed there many times and we always return. Rooms are usually large and well decorated. Beds are comfortable. Staff is genuinely nice and professional. Beautiful gardens and pool. Clean and safe. Breakfast is excellent. We had dinner in the gardens with our trekking team the last night, the waiter was just class, very sensitive!

Maybe better showers and a few bugs in our room

It is simply beautiful - such a wonderful place. Staff were exceptional

Wifi coverage is a bit hit or miss depending on where you are in the hotel. A few small repairs needed in some of the rooms.

Very friendly staff who try to help with all your asks. Hotel is in a quiet road but close enough to walk to the Thamel area. A number of restaurants and shops nearby. Nice garden area to relax in with swimming pool (although a little cold as in the shade all day...). After trekking for 3 weeks it felt like staying in the Burj al Arab!

room wasn’t cleaned or towels replaced during whole of 5 night stay. had to ask for clean towels and more toilet roll.

lovely location, down a small side street away from the main road. nice and quiet, but still close (15 min walk) to Thamel. lots of nice restaurants within a 5-10 min walk.

The room could have been slightly cleaner and the lighting was not great. WiFi was good when it worked, however dropped in and out all the time

The selection for breakfast was good. Staff were very friendly and helpful and could not do enough for you. Made heaps of suggestions on what to do and see and organised a driver for me

Hotel staff were excellent starting with Rabindra. Since we were leaving early in the morning, he even organised takeaway breakfast for us.

The beds are a bit uncomfortable, would have been nice to have two pillows per bed.

The property grounds are beautiful, having a balcony overlooking the garden and pool was incredibly peaceful for tea in the mornings. The breakfast was good, in a nice space.

Needs some renovation, not so "luxury" as branded

Comfortable room, friendly and attentive staff

There are no lifts on the properly and the stairs are quite steep, which is useful information to know before one books. They sent a dirty random car to pick me up from the airport, for an expensive airport pickup. However, when I raised this issue they apologised and have me a discount and the car they sent for the airport drop was very good. The room itself was okay, since it's a heritage building and they had to preserve the facade, I couldn't open the windows and let any air in. There was no fan so it was AC or nothing. The chain on the door was very weak: I found out because I had asked the staff to bring me a chair and he just shoved the door open not realising it was on, and it broke off. That made me a little nervous from a security perspective.

Breakfast was wonderful! All the staff are really helpful and attentive. The common areas to sit outside are really lovely and comfortable and the WiFi was excellent. The building itself is beautiful, as are the grounds. The bed was comfortable and the onsite pool was lovely!

I didn’t like the rooms at all, mosquitoes in the room

Food was good

Stayed in May 2023

There was some confusion over the booking which after a long travel time was not appreciated, said they had tried to get in contact but this was not the case. All sorted in the end.

Breakfast was plentiful with a range of items including fresh fruit. Staff were friendly though sometimes a little slow. All spoke good English.
