If you want to stay in the heart of Kathmandu and not in the tourist-area of Thamel, this is the place to go. We love it. Our home away from home in Kathmandu, just 100 m from Durbar Square. A beautiful house and the staff is wonderful. 1000 thanks for the farewell-ceremony on the day we left. You are all wonderful, we love you. Thanks for all. We definitely will come back. Greatings from the dephts of our hearts, Sabine and Michael

Heating in winter is a bit difficult if traveling with a child, but that applies to nearly everywhere in Khatmandu

Food and Service was great

Stayed in January 2025

Warm water was hard to get but there is a kettle in the room so it's easy to make warm bucket bath. Wifi was not always working.

It was a pleasure to stay in a wonderful old house. The owner and the staff are kind and always ready to help. The rooms are big and very nicely furnished, mine was really quiet. I travelled in winter time and I did not expect the heating (which was the case), it was not a problem for me but it is something to consider. Bathroom is simple. In other words, this hotel is for those who appreciate atmosphere over comfort of modern hotels. My room had no view but there is plenty of it from other sitting areas in the hotel - I really enjoyed seeing the temples and being immersed in the local atmosphere. The location is great, right round the corner from Durbar square and close to good dining options and shops. ONe can also eat righ in the hotel restaurant, I enjoyed the food.

The mattress on the bed was a little more springy than I prefer. Otherwise, perfect!

The Newari-styled room was very spacious with all the necessary amenities.

First and foremost, the location is excellent, making it convenient to explore the area and the hotel was impeccably clean, which made my stay even more enjoyable.

It is a really beautiful place with so much attention to detail, all decorated in traditional style with nice big open spaces, you can enjoy tea or a meal in different areas like the restaurant, cafe, courtyard or garden. The staff are all very nice and friendly, location couldn’t be better just off Durbar Square and food was really tasty as well. It feels special to be in such a place, so peaceful and authentic yet in the very heart of the city.

In my humble opinion, the staff could pay a bit more attention to the overall state of things, be it a broken lamp or a dusty cupboard. But these are just minor things that you don’t really pay attention to.

The location is right next to Durbar Square and if you want to be in the middle of Kathmandu with all that hustle and bustle, that’s the right choice.

No lift / elevator but luckily it was only a 3 storey walk-up

The traditional Nepali ambience/feel and hospitality

Stayed in April 2024

We weren’t able to get hot water for a shower when we were there but that may have been an issue of the timing and availability of hot water. The road to the hotel is narrow and very busy so allow for this in your timings.

WHH has a fantastic location next to Durbar Square, although some travelers may prefer to be in Thamel. The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly and the breakfasts are good. The room was large and comfortable and we slept well.

Room was really big and I got one facing the internal courtyard,hence I had a very silent night.Which is very rare in Kathmandu-which is genuinly the city that never sleeps.

Great location, lovely atmosphere

Nothing really.

This is an amazing place, especially if you like history: next to the Durbar, with a connecting door just behind the octagonal Krishna temple. An old Newari style house with courtyard and traditional locks on room doors. Hot water took a little while but everything worked fine, including wifi; drinking water was provided. Staff were very friendly and helpful -- thanks for a wonderful stay!
