Amazing monastery. It is easy to reach from any part of town and often hosts open pudjas and events. They even have small cafes and a bookstore. The teachings are set up in a manner that it is organized with large screens and translators thus it is accessible to all.❤️

have been living here for 2 weeks and have 10 to go. I feel like I am at home. The vegetarian restaurant is run by a hard working family, the mother and her two sons of 23 and 17 yrs of age, and has a stunning ambiance in the garden and the view of the city (when there isnt much smog). A little pricier than a hostel, but it is because they clean your room, have wifi in the reception area, hot water and clean rooms. If you're looking for a spiritual, serene, wholesome place for short or long term, this is the place. Shiva the receptionist is always at your service. Laundry costs per item, but again, it is like that every where (they even fold your clothes :P ). You can even meditate/chant with the monks daily from 6-7am and 4-5pm. They are extremely welcoming so don't be afraid to...

Este es de los peores casos que me sucedieron en Nepal. Voy a detallar mi experiencia. Lo primero es que a traves de una agencia local pactamos un precio de 18$ para una estancia larga y luego nos cobraron 20$. Nos ofrecieron como un apartamento equipado con cocina, agua caliente etc etc. Pero en realidad era como una cueva, la cocina lo unico que tenia eran unos fogones de gas portatiles, pero ni nevera, ni ningun otro electrodomestico, lo que si tenia era hormigas a montones. Por otro lado, al ser enero y no tener ningun tipo de calefaccion hacia muchisimo frio a lo que hay que anadir la humedad acumulada, el caso es que tambien estaba prohibido el uso de calefactores o radiadores, pero no os lo vais a creer, el monje de la recepcion si que tenia uno, el colmo... Por otro lado y como podeis suponer, tampoco habia agua caliente... se excusaban en que funcionaba por placas solares y como estaba nublado pues no funcionaba, muy bien asi me pase 4 dias duchandome en agua fria.... porque ojo, utilizar el gas para hervir agua y ducharte con un caldero tambien estaba prohibido en las normas del hotel, si querias agua hervida tenias que irte a la cocina que estaba como 400 escalones mas abajo... en fin este hotel no es un hotel, es una prision, a la cual no volveria ni aunque fuesen ellos los que me pagasen por estar alli. Creo que este hotel se vende como algo una morada espiritual para llevar una vida austera como un monje y poder rezar con ellos, etc etc. Creo que quizas es este el motivo por el que tambien hay gente que lo valora positivamente, pero si no eres un cliente que busque este tipo de oferta es vivir en la miseria total, por lo menos en enero. Ademas tengo que anadir que me parece un poco mezquino el ofertar este hotel como algo humilde pero luego cobrar como un hotel de gama alta en Kathmandu, a costa de no proporcionar ningun servicio al cliente. 000000% recomendable, huir vosotros que estais a tiempo. Por cierto olvidaros de limpieza en las habitaciones...

First time visiting & staying at this place. Lovely & comfy. Room is above our expectation & has hot water. Great food at their restaurant. Polite & accommodating people here. Location is also in the middle of city center. Prices are very affordable, so no need to bargain, especially at the...
