Ghazal Delight

The Mughal restaurant inside the hotel premises is a must-try! Having dinner while listening to melodious ghazals created a wonderful atmosphere. I thoroughly enjoyed my meals there, and the combination of good food and beautiful music made my dining experience truly nice.

I had a wonderful experience at this hotel, where the staff genuinely cares about your needs. The location is great for exploring Kathmandu, and the views from the windows are breathtaking. I loved the breakfast and the live music in the evenings. However, the rooms could use a bit of updating, which is the only downside to an otherwise fantastic stay.

The hotel is a decent place for budget travelers, providing basic but comfortable accommodations. The staff is genuinely helpful and friendly, and the rooftop restaurant offers delightful live music in the evening. However, the cleanliness of the linens left something to be desired, and the location is not ideally close to tourist attractions.
