    Everything was perfect

    I have stayed at hundreds of hotels and resorts around the world and believe it or not, Dwarika’s is my favorite, one of the best! I love the combination of authentic Himalayan style and decor, lush plant life, and modern touches. I feel like royalty staying at this peaceful oasis in the city. It is truly a magical sanctuary, you don’t feel like you are in the middle of the city. The food is outstanding, truly excellent, and the service is top-notch. I love that the rooms come stocked with fruit, snacks, and gourmet tea. Staying here is a must have experience!

    There wasn't much to dislike. We couldn't figure out how the curtains/ blackout worked.

    Premium hotel that maintains Nepalese historical architecture. Excellent food in the 3 restaurants. The staff was very kind. The spa is fantastic. The place is very quiet and the suite where we stayed was beautiful and comfortable.

    Shampoo bottles need to be fixed because now they need to be opened fully to use the shampoo (little thing).

    I really liked the general calm atmosphere in the middle of a hectic city. Toiletries were very nice as well, massage was excellent.

    Honestly, there wasn’t anything we didn’t like. If anything, we just wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy more of what the hotel had to offer.

    We celebrated our 15-year anniversary at The Dwarika's Hotel in Nepal, and the experience was truly unforgettable. The hospitality and service exceeded our expectations in every way. A special thank you to Adyut Neupane in the restaurant, whose service was above and beyond—attentive, thoughtful, and always had a touch of welcome and warm. We also want to recognize Ram Gajurel, one of the managers, who personally ensured we were well looked after. The entire staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. One of the highlights was the daily yoga sessions offered at the hotel. Practicing yoga in such a serene and sacred setting felt like reconnecting to our roots—truly grounding and revitalizing. We are deeply grateful for the experience and would definitely return. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a luxurious, soulful, and culturally rich stay in Kathmandu. The hotel made our 15-year anniversary truly unforgettable with exceptional service, attention to detail, and a peaceful, luxurious atmosphere.

    We’re not used to smoking these days whilst dining - but staff were very helpful getting us outside tables away from a group of smokers. No smoking is allowed dining inside. The courtyard dining is a lovely area!

    Wonderful room, relaxing and great nights’ sleep after high altitude hiking. Staff delightful, we were very well looked after and felt at home. Glorious courtyards gardens are an oasis in a busy city, flowering trees, pots of seasonal blooms, scented climbers, birds. Arranged a guide to take us to Patan - excellent. Also arranged hotel transport from and to the airport.

    The staff is friendly and helpful. My luggage was delayed in Dubai and the staff followed up to ensure it was transferred on the next flight and delivered to the hotel prior to my departure the following day. It was my 5th stay at the hotel and the only place I stay when in Kathmandu.

    A very warm welcome to an oasis of calm and peace in the bustling city. Walking distance to the centre to Durban Square (though taxis available), and very near the sacred site by the river. Staff always helpful - room absolutely wonderful! Gardens glorious and we enjoyed sitting outside for drinks and meals.

    Nothing comes to mind. Everything was perfect.

    Hotel property was a gem----Classic old style, elegant, luxurious, beautiful, charming, and immaculately kept. A spacious and tranquil sanctuary in the Kathmandu city center. Entire hotel staff were attentive to our every need---made us feel like VIPs or honored guests throughout our 4 day stay. Our room was very large and comfortable. Multiple fine restaurants on property offered a wide variety of menu choices. Buffet breakfast was lavish in both variety and quality. Swimming pool was clean and beautiful, although we did not use it due to cool weather in February. Central Location was close to the Kathmandu airport and other attractions. Spa was most pleasant with courteous and helpful staff. Without being asked, the hotel staff presented a lovely surprise celebration and beautiful cake (baked by hotel kitchen) for my wife's birthday at our last dinner there. All in all, a wonderful experience for our time in Kathmandu. Highly recommend this hotel for any visit to Nepal.
