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.

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.

Nice, clean, Easily approachable & decent place in the heart of the Thamel market, Kathmandu. Mr. Krishna Dawadi, the owner of this lodge is a very kind & helpful person. I was impressed with his hospitality. Since the place is located in the market area, there is a lot of noise from the street. keeping it aside. If I travel to Kathmandu again, I would like to stay at Backpackers Lodge again!

I spent here several nights and it was perfect. The rooms are clean and spacious. The ones that arent on the main street are calmer but I did not mind at all. The staff is very nice and help you in any way possible. I had to post a postcard, but the office was closed so they kindly did it for me ! Breakfast is good and the rooftop is very pleasant. And the location is perfect ! You are in the center and close to cool restaurants cafés ,… i would definitely recommend !! Great value for money !

I have stayed at Bag Packer's Lodge many times in the past several years. It is a great location, close to many different restaurants and shops. The owner, Krishna and his wife are great hosts. Krishna has assisted in arranging transportation to and from the airport as well as trips to other locations in Nepal. The roof top restaurant at Bag Packer's Lodge is great. The rooms are quite clean and comfortable. I will be spending several days at Bag Packer's again this September.

We stayed at the Bagpacker Hostel last Feb. For 5 days. The rooms were clean and sanitary as well as the bathroom with plenty of hot water. The Bagpacker Hostel is located in the Thermul district with plenty of shops. Very safe place to stay for females. KRISHNA the owner treated us like we were his sisters. He is very friendly and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend theBagpacker Hostel to anyone staying in Katmandu.
