Featuring a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. The homestay provides inner courtyard views, a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. Very quiet location considering you are in busy Kathmandu, wouldn't change to Thamel. Very nice helpful host and his cute family. Very clean facilities, very comfortable matrasses - we slept like babies. Excellent full breakfast. 🍳🥛☕🥭

Set in Kathmandu and only 2 km from Swayambhu, Peace Homestay offers accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. Housed in a building dating from 2022, this homestay is 3 km from Swayambhunath Temple and 4.1 km from Kathmandu Durbar Square. The accommodation features a shared kitchen, private check-in and check-out and currency exchange for guests. This is an incredible place to stay! I have been fortunate to travel to many places over the years and this is one of the most genuine experiences I have had. It is based in a local area, a lot more calm than busy Thamel and gives you more insight into how local people in Kathmandu live. You can walk into Thamel or can get a taxi/bike easily with the inDrive app. The rooms are comfortable, there is very good wifi and there is an incredible view from the rooftop. Nir and his family will really look after you, but at the same time give you as much space as you need to do your own thing. They will make it feel like your home where you can relax and whatever you do, try their meals in their kitchen…..you will not regret it! I thoroughly recommend a stay at peace homestay.

Boasting a garden and views of mountain, Namaste Home Stay is a recently renovated guest house situated in Dhulikhel, 30 km from Bhaktapur Durbar Square. Among the facilities of this property are a restaurant, a 24-hour front desk and luggage storage space, along with free WiFi throughout the property. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a terrace. The best homestay I've ever stayed in.. Prem and his family are the greatest people I've met in Nepal ( and I mean it!!). You will have an opportunity to stay with many locals and share about their culture. A lot of cute kids were always playing around, so the place was really lively. The food was excellent and the room & bathroom were sparkling clean! The village of Namobuddha is very authentic and the scenery stunning. If you're lucky enough, you will also have the opportunity to meet Ian who lives there and runs a charity association to provide water pipelines for remote villages. Trust me, go there ...that's the kind of place you will never forget.

With city views, Laxmi Homestay with main square view is situated in Bhaktapur and has a restaurant and room service. The property has quiet street views and is 200 metres from Bhaktapur Durbar Square and 12 km from Patan Durbar Square. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. The host, Nivan was one of the best hosts I’ve met. He took such pride and care into his guests, he toured us around at his own will and time, providing lovely knowledge and history in the culture of Bhaktapur. He even invited us to join him on his meditation, which was an experience in its own. I stated during the time of Dashain, a festival in Nepal. Nivan hosted a family dinner, which was delicious, and very traditional, as he explained they only eat like that during festivals. 10/10 experience. The location is also perfect, as you are a one minute walk from the square, and can see that along with the beautiful Himalayas, on the rooftop, where Nivan will most likely bring you tea, and explain more of the history and culture behind it. If you are looking for a good cultural experience, a good view, good location, anything, this is the place for you!!

The property has mountain and city views, and is 500 metres from Swayambhu. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared kitchen and free WiFi.

There is nice view of the stupa from the terrace. The room is kept clean by the housekeeping staff. The prices are definitely unmatchable. Great value for money.

Shine Homestay Famille Francophone - Shine Home and Apartment, a property with a shared lounge, is situated in Kathmandu, 2.5 km from Swayambhu, 2.9 km from Kathmandu Durbar Square, as well as 3.6 km from Swayambhunath Temple. The property has city and quiet street views, and is 2.5 km from Hanuman Dhoka. There is a sun terrace and guests can make use of free WiFi and free private parking. We stayed at Shine Homestay as a group of 16 people, and everything was simply wonderful. Rabina and her family made us feel truly at home: their kindness, calm energy, and attention to detail created a peaceful haven in the middle of Kathmandu’s lively chaos. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the rooftop offered a lovely space to relax, and breakfast was fresh and generous. Communication with Rabina was always easy and warm, both before and during our stay. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic hospitality and genuine connection with local life.
