The staff are very helpful and nice. The place is peaceful and quiet, despite being in the middle of Thamel. The hotel is brand new, so everything is in perfect condition.

Everything was perfect! I stayed just for one night, but I loved everything. They can arrange you a taxi from the airport and if you need they offer a lot of tours and treks. Absolutely reccomended!

Came as a solo traveler and rooms were really clean. The hostel has a very calm vibe and the roof top cafe is top notch. The staff helped me a lot to navigate the city. Especially Saroj and ganesh had enough knowledge of the activities in the city which helped me for a better stay.

I spent a whole day looking for a suitable hostel in Kathmandu. After comparing 6 hostels, I finally chose Birds Nest. It turned out to be the best choice I made. I was attracted by the beautiful courtyard of the hostel at first, as if I was in the nature. Of course, the staff here are also super nice, we greeted and chatted every day. There are also very delicious food here, with local characteristics and reasonable prices.

Best Hostel truly lives up to its name! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the staff goes above and beyond to help, and the rooms are spotless and comfortable. The location is also great—close to everything but still peaceful at night. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Kathmandu! The host even offers free luggage storage when I'm hiking for 2 weeks!

The personal attention of Didi! I’m the morning we hit the streets and markers of Kathmandu and watched the preparations of the Indra Jatra - in relatively calmness - later that day it was ‘on!’ So happy to experienced that! I do come back, if it’s only to pick up my stores luggage. Thank you so much! ✨

Alobar1000 Hostel

Alobar1000 hostel has been a go-to spot for visitors to Kathmandu for over 15 years, and you'll be sad to leave. The staff are dedicated, genuinely kind, and so attentive that they start to feel like family. The premises have been recently renovated, with very clean, high-quality facilities that are constantly improving—all at competitive rates. Located on the edge of Thamel, it’s close to everything but offers a peaceful escape from Kathmandu's chaos. The hostel has everything you need: a nice bar, high-quality yet reasonably priced restaurant and café, and a travel agency, “Dal Bhat Power,” offering professional service and skilled guides. People say you come to Nepal for the mountains but return for the people, and this couldn’t be truer for Alobar1000. You’ll have to experience it yourself. I only wish more people in the world were as wonderful as Tashi, the owner of this hostel.

All hostels in Bhaktapur

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Great location and great vibe. I met a lot of interesting people at Hostel Swastik that went on to become good friends. The staff are helpful and Bishwo the owner is a really great guy with interesting projects ongoing. I will never stay anywhere else except here whenever I'm in Bhaktapur.

Super cozy and friendly hostel in a great location. Bishwo, the owner is very helpful and knows a lot about the area. He helped me with my indian visa and recommended the best local restaurants and places to go in Bhaktapur as well as outside the city. The hot showers work very well and the beds are comfortable. Furthermore you can use the rooftop terrace of the guesthouse just across the streets for some amazing sunset.

I loved the atmosphere at Swastik hostel. It's a small hostel, but it has a range of different rooms and a guesthouse with private rooms nearby. The people are very chill, spontaneous and hospitable. I felt taken care of, safe and never lonely. We discovered new parts of Bhaktapur every evening for the Dashain festival and really got the local experience thanks to the host, Bishwo. And I still feel like there is loads to discover. I will be back! 😀
