Hotel Vintage Home

The accommodation offers a delightful rooftop terrace breakfast, clean and comfortable rooms, and a central location near Durbar Square. However, some guests found the beds less comfortable than expected.

This is a small hotel run by the head guy, his young assistant, and a woman who cleans the rooms and does laundry. That's it. It's the smallest staffed hotel I stayed at easily my entire time in Nepal. Breakfast was served on the rooftop between 8:00 - 9:00. (The days I was there, everyone more or less showed up at 8:00 am.) Breakfast consisted of egg, white bread toast, tea of coffee, and some slight variation (pancake or grilled veggies). For the price I paid for a room, the breakfast was decent. The hotel arranged a driver to take me to see the early morning sunrise (that all went off without a hitch). The room was pretty basic. I had a balcony, and a simple fan which kept the temperature at a decent coolness in the night. There was noise from neighbors some nights, but things got quiet after 9:00 or 10:00 pm. I had my laundry done twice while I was there at a very reasonable price. Almost every single bathroom I encountered in my Nepali hotels had issues (by American standards). This bathroom was no exception. Of the three days, I couldn't get hot water at all for the shower one time, and on another day, it took forever. The shower controls weren't intuitive to say the least. Sometimes there was someone at the front desk, other times there was no one. (Due to the small staff.) Whether you are happy here or not depends on what sort of things bother you. For the price point, I couldn't really complain.
