To be honest I think maybe I'm being a little harsh on shangri-la because I was so disappointed with Kathmandu - to start with before u decide to stay in Kathmandu know that it's going through some demolition drive and everything seems to be under construction , broken , dust everywhere . So when I enter the hotel we are... More

I arrived in Kathmandu in late May this year with US$2 at the airport. I sat down and told a few people around me how I got here, Straight away the guys took me under there arm and managed to say yes to all my requests, even when they got silly. They had a comfortable bed, shower, restaurant, a few... More

We had booked in advance a deluxe room in Shangri-la Guest House that is situated in a very calm side road of Thamel. We arrived late in the evening after two exhausting travel days. We got a very friendly welcome by the staff, but what a deception when we saw the room! It was only dimly lit and very sparsely... More

Had a couple of great days in this hotel. Staff is really friendly, location is good and there's a real relaxt atmosphere. The owner organised our whole trip in Nepal (which included sightseeing in Kathmandu, rafting, a 9days-trekking in the Annapurna and a couple of days in Chitwan National park) and was our guide during the trekking. I would definetly... More

Had a great stay here! I travelled with two friends (all girls) and we stayed in Shangri-la the first 3 days of our trip. Before we went to Nepal I already had contact with Sabin (the owner) by mail, he arranged the most wonderfull trekking for us! In total we spent 18 days in Nepal and he also was our... More

I have been in Nepal for about a month, and stayed at the Shangri-la guest house for a little over a week. They were great in helping me to organize some Himalayan trekking and the staff is also very friendly. The rooms are quite basic so it's great if you are traveling on a budget. It is also in a...

I really enjoyed my time in the Shangri-La Guest House. The owners are really friendly and open minded. They told me a lot about their life and how life in Nepal is. I learned a lot about the culture and the religion. The hostel is a perfect place for backpackers between 18 and 35 and is definitely worth the money.... More

It was always very nice to come back to this place. The owners are really friendly, helped a lot to find my way through Nepal and... More

Thamel is generally the place to stay in Kathmandu and I can't argue with that - it has everything a traveller wants and needs, but it can be a bot noisy, Luckily, on returning to Kathmandu after a trek in Pokhara we found this guest house located close enough to the amenities and buzz of Thamel but at enough of...

I stayed in Shangri la on two different occasions when in Kathmandu. I really loved the time I spent there. The areas really quite which is such a relief in hectic Thamel! Rooms are spacious and clean. The best thing here is the staff. Amit, Sabin and their crew do their very best fire you and create a lovely homely... More
