The location and hotel staff are good. Need to change the towels and bed sheets.

The location is perfect. There are no problems finding food such as restaurants, bars, and cafes.
However, this time, even though I made a reservation a while ago, when I showed the form and asked to check in, I was told that the room was full. I was taken to another hotel and managed to stay there, but the staff told me that I would have to change rooms every day, which was very troublesome, but the owner of the hotel gave me the same room. I was looking forward to breakfast included, but of course there was no such thing lol. There was no explanation. But is this the overseas standard? I guess that's how it is, so I changed my mind and had a fun trip. The local people were really kind, and I made friends and exchanged SNS. I would like to go back to the hotel that let me stay.
I wasn't able to stay at the hotel I booked, so there are no photos.

The staff is friendly and the location is good as it is on Thamel Street, but it is noisy at night due to the many people walking around, so those who are sensitive may have a hard time.

I'm grateful that they gave me a better room than I requested. The only bad thing was that the room was dark and the Wi-Fi was slow.

This website said that breakfast was included, but in reality, that was not the case. It is located in the downtown area of Thamel, so it is very convenient for shopping and eating out. Also, it is less than 10 minutes walk to the long-distance bus stop to Chitwan or Pokhara, so it is recommended for those who plan to go there. However, even though you will probably stop by the room, it is very lively and noisy during the night. It may be difficult for those who prefer quietness. The room is clean and the staff is very friendly.

Great place to stay in the heart of Thamel. Good food in the restaurant on the rooftop. All the staff are very helpful and knowledgeable. The rooms are clean and fresh and family-friendly. Krishna will sort any issues, and will even arrange transport from the airport.

I stayed in Bag Packer's Lodge 3 times when I travelled to Kathmandu many years ago. I really liked the location of it, so convenient. The room was clean, and the price was very affordable. And the hostel manager Krish was very friendly and helpful.

I travel extremely often, and I am fortunate enough to stay at numerous very high end locations. As a result, I’ve become a tough grader. For my trip to Kathmandu, however, I needed a much more modest location, and Bag Packers came highly recommended by trusted globetrotting friends. I must say that Bag Packers exceded my expectations in every way … First, they are very centrally located in a walkable, engaging area with so many great options for food and shopping. But much more importantly, this accommodation is super clean and staffed with hard working, warm, very helpful staff. The rooms, common areas, linens, and roof top cafe are uniformly clean, and the cafe breakfast, especially the spinach omelette, is SO good. I was so happy to have efficient heat and hot water every day, while the front desk staff, including the manager/owner, would unfailingly go out of their way to be helpful and welcoming. I think you get value at Bag Packers FAR beyond what you pay, and I would recommend it without reservation.
