We stayed one night here, taking a taxi from Kathmandu. The quality of the 'road' to the cottages is only suitable for 4 wheel drive not taxis, so we had to walk the half hour plus up to the cottages with some of our luggage, the taxi driver carrying our packs. Steve's driver met us on the way up, coming... More

Having completed a hectic overland journey from Delhi to Kathmandu, I was looking for somewhere to spend a few days to unwind. I stayed at Shivapuri Heights for 4 nights, and cannot recommend it highly enough. The location is just fantastic, with stunning views across the Kathmandu Valley from the terrace (mist permitting!). Rooms are delightful, and even the regular... More

It is close enough to the city to do all the sights easily but far enough away to wake up to the sounds of the countryside and a fabulous view of the valley. The owners are very friendly and helpful and... More

The rooms were spotlessly clean, decorated beautifully according to Nepali decoration. The... More
