Good hotel with nice service. Really liked the breakfast of this hotel. Rooms are average. casino is good. Minimum amount that you need to spend is INR 1000 (1600 Nepali Rupees). Free drinks and food. Not the best hotel but you won't be disappointed.

There is a nice mixture of old and new at the Yak & Yeti! There are a number of spots that are in easy walking distance as well. The rooms are nice and the services are excellent for Kathmandu. The fitness center is okay, but the hot tub is weak!

It is comfortable hotel and it has what you would expect of any hotel. The rooms are clean but it looks a bit tired though we felt homely with the nepalese design. The hotel surroundings are well maintained but the birds seemed to come to the ledges outside the windows at night. Another thing is that i cannot get used... More

initially, we thought the Yak and Yeti was fine, but our view changed following management's reaction to a major security lapse.

This place has not at all improved from the last time that I stayed here. Still needs an update and a cleaning, but at least it is an oasis from the rest of Kathmandu. If they could just get the AC working properly then it would get one more star.
