When we arrived from Tibet at Elbrus Home we got a warm and friendly welcome, free tee or coffee as much as we wanted and lots of information about Nepal and what to do & what to see.

We stayed at Elbrus Home twice (before and after our trek), and highly recommend it to fellow travelers in Kathmandu. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming.
