The hotel is right in the heart of Thamel. My room was very spacious and clean. I love the rooftop garden. It has a clear view of Swayambunath temple. II wish I had more days to spend my evenings on the rooftop garden, sipping my drinks and eating yummy foods. The staffs were attentive and clean. I had a heart warming conversation with the owner and two other guys. They have been running a school in Mustang which they built twenty some years ago. They also planted over a thousand apple trees in Mustang. All the proceeds from the apple sales helps to pay some of the school expenses. That conversation made my stay more satisfying. Thank You🙏🙏🙏

Clean, Convenient and helpful!

The best thing about this hotel was the location. Located right in the middle of Thamel. You can find restaurants, shops, bars and other facilities in every direction from the hotel. They had a basic option for breakfast (set menu) which was ok. Staffs at the reception and the manager were quite helpful. Rooms were ok. not very spacious but enough for what you'll need.

If you are not a party person and going to bed early, you may find the sounds from the bars around a little bit problematic. But we were tired most of the days after the entire day's activities, so the sounds were tolerable as it didn't make much of a problem.

I prolonged my stay for another night and was able to keep my great room! It was clean and furnished in a modern style. Hotel is located centrally in Thamel, yet it’s a quiet location so no construction site noises or loud people on the street could be heard. The personnel was amazingly nice, interested and very supportive in any (special) requests. Great breakfast on the rooftop restaurant with a great view over Kathmandu.

The location was perfect. Easy to roam around and getting transport to various destinations was no trouble. Both Jigme & Tashi were exceptional hosts. Breakfast was simple, tasty and everyday there was a change in the menu. The scrambled eggs with cheese was my favorite. ( eggs were on order) All the food on the menu was very tasty and flavorful. The chicken salad. pizzas and momos were the highlights. The terrace garden and restaurant were tastefully done and had a view. They were very helpful in arranging the tours to various tourist spots. Bhaktapur, Bodha, Chandragiri hills.

Excellent location. Our room was very clean, modern with a spacious bathroom and shower. The extremely polite housekeeping staff did an excellent job....our toiletries, coffee, tea, sugar and 2 bottles of free water were replaced daily. Very good value for money. The highlight was our delicious breakfast in the the rooftop bar which had amazing views of the mountains. The host couple were extremely helpful, engaged us in many long conversations about their Nepalese/Tibetan culture and helped us in organizing our day trips. Our total experience was amazing, wouldn't stay anywhere else. Highly recommend Hotel Excelsior to my fellow travelers.

Nothing negative

Wonderful, well laid out and sumptuous breakfast. Excellent dining facility and lovely food preparation in all meals. Very homely atmosphere, and the best combination of a boutique hotel and homestay experience.

The noise levels in the surrounding neighborhood need to be lowered or even eliminated say after 11.00 PM or even midnight. This could be managed by a community agreement for mutual benefit of all residents in the localality.

Very good breakfast to suit all palates. Very friendly and accomodating staff. Homely. Excellent party area.

Lighting in rooms.

Felt at home.

The Bathrooms. Could be more comfortable
