Very nice hotel in the heart of Thamel. Great food. Lovely staff, one of whom carried my case up to my room as there is no elevator.

Very good
Posted on Jan 3, 2025
The location is very convenient, directly in the downtown area, with many bars and nightclubs (friendly for nightlifers) and the environment is comfortable and clean. This room type includes breakfast. In addition to the variety of choices, the breakfast can also be customized. The service staff also thoughtfully remembers the content of the food ordered every day, and will ask the next day if they want to be the same as yesterday. I caught a cold during this trip. After telling the counter, someone will immediately bring you cold medicine. Everyone who meets you the next day will also care about whether you feel better. A very friendly hotel, worth exploring👍

This hotel is beautiful, the service is great, the hardware facilities are also good, and the design is very local. There is no elevator, but the staff will help you take your luggage up. The best thing is the food and service. I had breakfast. , it is not a buffet, you can order according to your own taste. This breakfast will make me look forward to coming here again next time. In short, it is highly recommended.

​My partner and I recently concluded a wonderful stay at the Dalai-La Boutique Hotel, and we can confidently say this is the best boutique hotel in Thamel, and quite possibly, all of Kathmandu. ​The hotel is a stunning blend of authentic Newari architecture and modern, luxury amenities. Our room, beautifully styled with traditional Nepalese and Buddhist art, was an absolute haven of peace, providing ample natural light and a truly comfortable, relaxing atmosphere. ​The staff's hospitality is truly the jewel of this property. The addition of the Art Space Gallery elevates the entire experience, making it feel more like a cultural destination than just a place to sleep. ​For couples seeking a perfect blend of luxury, culture, and peace while exploring Kathmandu, look no further. The Dalai-La is an exceptional hotel that sets the standard for boutique accommodation in the city.

For years, visiting Kathmandu for my mountaineering expeditions, I have exclusively stayed at the Dalai-la Boutique Hotel. It is the perfect blend of convenience and serenity. The hotel's aesthetics are a harmonious blend of traditional Nepali craftsmanship and modern luxury, creating a wonderfully great ambience. It is an oasis of calm that I look forward to after time on the mountain. Its proximity to the Thamel main market is unbeatable for last-minute needs, yet the hotel remains peacefully secluded. The true highlight is the exceptional hospitality from the caring staff members. They make every stay feel like a family return. I must give a special shout-out to Mr Purshotham; his proactive assistance and professionalism embody the hotel's high standards.
Response from Property: Namaste Kshitij ji, Thank you so much for sharing such a heartfelt reflection on your stays with us at Dalai-la Boutique Hotel. We are delighted that our blend of traditional Nepali aesthetics and modern comfort continues to make you feel at home, and that our peaceful corner in Thamel serves as a welcome retreat after your mountaineering expeditions. Knowing that our location remains both convenient and calming for you is wonderful feedback. Your kind words about our team, especially Mr. Purshotham, warm our hearts. He—and all of us—take great pride in offering attentive and genuine hospitality, and we are thrilled that our efforts make each visit feel like a return to family. Thank you once again for your continued trust and loyalty. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next adventure.

The chefs clearly put a lot of care into the presentation and taste of each dish. The drinks were also fantastic, with creative cocktails and a great selection of wines. I highly recommend dining here.

I had a great time at Dalia-La. They have a lovely courtyard & restaurant. The rooms are very spacious, clean, and with nice amenities. Great value for the price. Tanka was extremely helpful to me, as I accidentally dinged another car while getting out of a taxi. He quickly came out to make sure I was OK, and help me navigate the situation. I also had a great experience at the restaurant, and was given great service by Tanka, Puru, and Rossan. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting Kathmandu!

Was here few times before with friends and had a great dinning along with music. This time went solo and had the best Veg Momo and the hot Coffee. Really love the peaceful ambience of the hotel and the delicious foods that makes me feel like visiting over again.
