Very good

The staff at Hotel Buddah were fantastic, starting from breakfast and assisting with anything else (taxi to airport etc) as needed. It is quite a noisy area, which you can hear through the windows at night. Felt slightly unsafe walking around once dark but lovely and popular tourist spot during the day.

Staff are the best, very very helpful. No hot water is difficult for us Westerners. I found out that the Airport shuttle is no longer available since Covid.
it was ok, some issues with the hot water.
room evidently not occupied for some time, dust accumulated on tissue within box.
invisible lady in the room.
Central location reasonably priced the walls and floors are thin so you will hear outside noises and hall noises
manager was very amenable and try to make people feel comfortable
The staff was extremely helpful and kind. The manager was particularly attentive.
I had emailed ahead of time asking about the airport shuttle and received a quick response mentioning that they were no longer operating that.
I'll also note that they were kind enough to securely store some small luggage for us for ~1 week while we were trekking.
My room was very clean and the bed comfortable.
The Breakfast was good.
The Hotel has a great location.
Around there a little cafes and restaurants.
The Hotel Manager and the hotel stuff were very kind and helpful.
The service provided was Not exactly as described, Breakfast was good but there was No shuttle service from airport when I arrived at 4 pm. Room was clean and tidy, sufficient hot and cold water. TV was Not working overall good.

Staff didn’t have the room key at the counter, I had to wait outside the room until another staff brought key to open the door.
There was no hot water, only one power plug which would not for to international chargers.
Staff at the counter didn’t know if I had already paid during my booking and provided me a bill to pay
This hotel does a great job and making sure you are happy being here. From breakfast to getting the tv cable channels that are available in English. Nothing is too much trouble. I’ll be back while I’m in Nepal.
From the moment I entered the front door I knew I was welcome. I had traveled all night to get to Kathmandu and needed coffee and 5 minutes to gather myself. The kind gentleman bought me coffee and said when I was ready that so was my room. I checked in and the rest of the stay was as great as my check in. Thank you Hotel Buddha.
This was my 2nd stay in Hotel Buddha. I love this hotel with amazing staffs and offcourse I love the breakfasts they serve in the morning.

My partner and I stayed her in January 2020 for a bit over a week. Overall the property wasnt bad but the rooms are tired. I noticed the windows arent sealed so noise and the weather can easily seep through. This wasnt great as there is construction work on both sides of the hotel (but I can hardly blame them for that). The breakfast was exceptional and the staff were brilliant, so I woupd probably go back.
I had a great stay and the staff are very helpful and courteous. The hotel is situated at the upper end of Thamel which is more quiet and has less traffic than the rest of the area.
The hotel is within walking distance of good restaurants, bars, pubs and atm's.
The hotel offers a good breakfast and luggage storage service.
I had a great stay!
