This hotel is in the perfect location to really get the feel of life round Boudhanath Stupa. We were really pleased that we had booked a room with a stupa view and even more delighted to have found Hotel Padma.||This hotel is incredibly clean, well furnished (it was renovated two years ago) and always has the smell of the fresh flowers in the hall outside Reception.

The staff there is kind and helpful and the food is good. You can easily spend hours sitting on the rooftop watching the 'action' around the stupa. It is my favorite place in...
Read moreWe went there after a long day of touring Kathamandu, the location of the restaurant and the views are amazing, quality of food is good. Toward the end I tripped down the stairs broke my ankle and hand wrist as the stairs were not maintained at all, luckily I Fell on my back and not face, they fixed the stairs only, no compensation for the terrible stairs and not even discount on the food, prices are very expensive we paid 12300 rupee and they did not come and appologized, no consideration for what could happened and what damages this could of caused me, I have a 3 days of hiking and trekking and I dunno know if I will be able to manage it, normally I do not complain but this encounter should not go unmentioned for all visitors to come!!! I dont think I will ever cone again for the very poor constumer service...
