It was strategically located in a tourist hotspot called Thamel. Had loads of stores and eatery places downstairs. You can literally walk your way around. Plus the hotel is about 20-25minutes away from the airport. You will see all sorts of local products just below the hotel, souvenir stores, local and international cuisines, stores with local fashion products, groceries and more!
I was sad the spa wasnt operational... but ofcourse this is a covid safety precaution.

Breakfast starts at 7:15 am but i had to leave at 6:00 am for the work,We asked for the packed breakfast but they said its not available.So just a small suggestion if somebody has early morning checkout they should have that option.However rest everything was very good.
The water seems to be so yellowish so i think they should look after it,and while i went for the check-out it was early moring around 6:40 am, there was nobody in the reception,So i told my fren to settle the bill when there is staff in reception.What if i just walk off .So please make a note so these thing rest everything was perfect.

The staff were welcoming and friendly. The amenities (sure some needs repair) was a good value for money. To add to context I had been using this hotel for year's and I had paid 3x more on previous occasions. It is sad to see how much Covid had affected this hotel.
