No con, just a heads up: As the hotel is situated on the Durbar Square you need a ticket to enter that part of the city. You can get multiple day entrance if you bring a copy if your passport to the desk.

The hotel was situated on the middle of Durbar Square, being able to see the sunset over the temples from the roof was amazing. The staff was super helpful and responsive to our questions prior to our arrival.

Great hotel in an excellent location. The hotel is right in the historical area. Its worth spending a relaxing couple of days here and exploring the square at your leisure. Staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. I highly recommend Hotel Traditional. (Unrelated to the hotel itself, be sure to carry your ticket to the square with you. If you wander anywhere near the entries/exits you will be pounced on like they've spotted Ronnie Biggs. At any rate at more than $20 AUD it's not a fee you want to pay more than once.).

The room lighting was a bit dim. You’ll need to walk out of the square to get a taxi🤣 but not a big deal .

Fantastic location, right next to Durbar Square. Everything is within walking distance. The window in the room was very beautiful and classic. The rooftop is amazing—you can enjoy your breakfast with a view of the square. ❤️ The staff were also very helpful. I had a really late flight on the day I checked out, and they kindly allowed me to have a late check-out for my convenience. I really appreciated that.

With the hotel being in Bhaktapur Durbar Square expect to have to pay entry (1800 ruppee for foreigners) to the site. Something i was not aware of before I booked and was a bit of a shock at first.

Great hotel. Room was nice and spacious and staff were really kind and helpful.

The rooms are not noise proof so you could experience some noise from the streets in the mornings.

Great location and staff are very welcoming and helpful. The room was clean and everything was functional. Good shower with hot water. The terrace has a great view. Good and plenty breakfast.

First up hotel location is excellent, with a rooftop overlooking Durbar Square. Everyone we met who worked there was delightful – unfailingly helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was delicious. The room was very comfortable and well thought out (good, hot shower; and tea & coffee facilities in the room).

The hotel needs a little TLC

Nice hotel perfectly located in Durbar Square. The staff are very kind accommodating. Good breakfast.

The hotel feels a little neglected -- there are buckets and rags in the hallways, staff in the lobby on their cell phones. The hotel advertises a rooftop cafe or at least a "restaurant," but there isn't one. Be sure to inquire about whether the AC/heat works. Mine didn't.

Very kind and helpful staff, exceptional location, large room. The breakfast was very nice, good coffee.

Rajesh and the entire staff were amazing! They are helpful and do their best to ensure guests are comfortable. Our room was clean, comfortable, and we had hot water for our showers. The location is incredible! We walked everywhere. The views of Durbar Square from the rooftop are spectacular. We would definitely stay here again.

I wish they would open the bar on the roof (right now you need to order from the reception, 4 stories below). The interior garden is not welcoming.

Very nice manager. The location is incredible, very nice view from the roof. The room was clean and comfortable

Amazing location right on the square. With a rooftop terrace where you can overlook the whole square. The staff were genuinely lovely. They went out of their way to ensure our comfort and cater for our vegan diet. Thank you for all your help and making our stay in Bhaktapur so enjoyable.

The location was amazing. Opening our windows onto Durbar Square was a highlight. It is so so central and the staff are super friendly and helpful.

The hotel is located next to the square and since it was festival season, it was very loud.

The hotel is beautiful! The room was very clean and tidy, with a super comfortable bed. The staff was so kind and the breakfast was also delicious.

Beautiful old building right next to Durban square

The room was a bit dark and cleanliness can be improved. It can be noisy at night due to the many dogs in town but good ear plugs can solve the issue.

Charming hotel right next to Durbar Square with amazing terrace overlooking the main square. The room was nice and comfortable, nice breakfast but what really made the difference was the lovely and helpful staff. Rajesh especially has been extremely kind and assisted us when we felt sick! He is a plus and deserves 5 stars!
