Reviews of Birds Nest Hostel

The location and social area

Bathrooms could be cleaned more

Very kind and helpful staff. They make you feel welcome and always there for you.

Everything was really good.

The staff are super friendly and go above and beyond to help you + they are always smiling. Super clean rooms with great amenities. The food is really good and the garden is a nice break from the busy city

This is my second time staying at this hostel. As usual, the reception staff was super helpful. I love the peaceful atmosphere in the public areas, unlike the hostel next door that plays music all day long. There are multiple public spaces and a rooftop to relax in. The manager and staff are very friendly. I’ll definitely come back to stay here if I visit Nepal again. Thanks!

The curtain of bed was half transparent and not fully cover, it's nice if can improve this.

Great staff and guests

Great people, great place

Combining all here is the best hostel in Thamel!

Very friendly, helpful staff.

Friendly welcoming staff & boss, quite environment(that's why make their dorm always full!!). Clean toilet that clean up everyday by two staff every morning. 4-5 common area to sit(include rooftop).

Wifi is not stable, especially single room at the most behind, it can't be connect at all.

Great location close to Thamel but not in the middle of the craziness. Staff is excellent and sells food and drinks - just pick something out of the fridge and make eye contact with the staff and they bill it directly to your room which is very convenient. The layout of the place is very nice with lots of outdoor common areas with seating. Overall quality of facilities was good, but will differ from Western standards. I would strongly recommend, especially if you're younger or solo travelling as it is very easy to meet and converse with other guests and the staff.

I stayed here for 10 days and after trekking and before my flight home. It's a lovely friendly hostel, hot showers, lots of different areas to sit and enjoy peace and quiet, whilst being convenient for Thamel. Sunny and Nitesh and all the staff were always helpful. I would definitely recommend and if I ever come back to Nepal I would stay here.

The staff is super friendly, helpful with everything from booking taxi to trek etc. Always wishing me good morning and available for any type of information. The food menu is extensive and tasty. The garden provides a comfortable space in the busy city. It is easy to meet other travellers in the common space.I came back three times and felt at home there :)

Dorms and bathrooms are pretty basic

I recently stayed at Birds Nest in Nepal, and it was truly a wonderful experience. Birds Nest felt like a serene escape from the chaos of daily life. The room was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make me feel at home.

Good place to stay and relax, close to Thamel. Stayed here for a week and would recommend it for a longer stay.

Really calm and relaxing place but also with good community vibes. The private room was nicer than expected. I stayed at a different hostel initially in KMD (which was ok) and was very happy to have changed to Birds Nest.

Good location, away from the main Thamel. Affordable hostel with a friendly environment and very helpful staff.

- weird bathroom in the double private room (outside)

Very good location and friendly atmosphere. Restaurant, stuff, service, facilities made me happy.

Nothing to complain.

Exceptional attention from all the staff Lots of plants, green and lush nature in the center of Thamel, gets you in a good place Lots of common and sitting areas. Super clean property

Everything was perfect and suited our needs! 👍🏻
