We stayed on 3 occasions during our recent trip to Nepal. Great budget place to stay when in Kathmandu with friendly helpful staff, clean rooms, 24 hr WIFI and always a hot shower. Our luggage was stored free of charge when we were off. Location is great. Lower rooms on the street side can be a little noisy, but you're... More

This hotel does the job of a comfortable place to sleep. The staff are very helpful and pleasant people. All rooms have Indian Cable TV, the power is reliable when the government power load sharing limits are not in effect, but, this does not effect the free wi-fi which seems to run 24/7. The hot showers are intermittent but this... More

The first time I visited Karma Travellers Home was in March 2013 and now I'm back here for the 3rd time. It is a very nice hotel with a perfect location in Thamel and the staff are the most friendly I have met in Nepal. The beds might not be as soft as you will find in the fancy hotels... More

We stayed at Karma 13 years ago when we first visited Nepal. Some things haven't changed - the hotel is well placed in Thamel, the staff are friendly, each floor has a terrace and the room rate is low. However, the hotel seems a little shabby nowadays. Our bedclothes were not particularly clean and the bathroom had a stained bath,... More

We spent a night at this hotel and its got friendly staff and a helpful manager. It is well situated in Thamel, however the rooms are terribly old with poor condition of furniture. The bed sheets weren't clean and there was a lot of leaking and malfunction in the bathroom. Although the room rate was quite low, but with spending... More

We husband and wife stayed for couples of days in this hotel. Everything is fine since we didn't have high expectation. It was good to enjoy sun in the morning at roof-top. Simple but good. Breakfast was salty at first, needed to ask for less salt from next time. During breakfast enjoyed rooftop sunny time. Some of the rooms are... More

I love this place. I got value and sun for my money. During the day, I soaked in sun on their terrace. It's located in the center of Thamel. Easy access to eatery, drinks, hang out, shopping and come back and relax.
