It was my first ever trip to Nepal and I am in love with nepal forever. Now Nepal is my 2nd go to destination anytime if I want to, the best stay Hotel yala peak Everything is best either you talk about food Yala cafe or the hotel or the Staff (courteous) staff Thnks for making my vacation the best ever

+ Rahim (alias James Franco) is a wonderful host. he comes to the train station at 4:30h in the morning to pick me up and also he help me with some issues. he is funny and he makes you feel at home. I contracted a desert safari with him (wonderful too) and the next day he let me take a shower and rest in his hotel. he always has a chai to offer you :)

We were originally meant to stay at Yala peak for 2 nights, but found ourselves returning multiple times throughout our time in Nepal and spent the best part of a week here. It was by far our favourite accommodation during our journey through India and Nepal. Above all, the staff at Yala were delightful: incredibly helpful, kind and welcoming (thank you!!!). We stayed in three different rooms, all of which were very spacious and comfortable, with access to a balcony where we enjoyed room service dinner one evening. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all delicious and unrivalled by anywhere else we ate in Kathmandu. We left our luggage here whilst we went trekking and then again for a few nights in Bhaktapur, which was a lifesaver. The location is brilliant, in the heart of Thamel with a supermarket two doors down and a short walk to Durbar Square. Amazing value, 10/10. Thank you so much to everyone at Yala for making our stay such a highlight, we were very sad to leave!

I felt very safe in the solid traditional building. I was in Kathmandu during the earthquake in 2015, staying in a nearby hotel, so still felt a little apprehension. My room on the fourth floor was perfect for my week's stay. I had a couple of room requests which were very quickly satisfied. The location is well-known to taxi drivers and people working in the industry, and it is very convenient. The staff go above and beyond to help guests. Thank you to all...🙏

I was happy with everything!

Clean room, comfy bed, super staff (young, welcoming, very helpful and always smiling). Surprisingly quiet. A bit of noise in the early morning but not related to the hotel staff. More the locals going to work. Excellent restaurant. Will adapt food to you likings and taste. Could not ask for better. For the price this is by far the best place I have found.

Noise in the morning but this is not related to the hotel staff. Smokers in the designated spots but can still bother the sensitive non smoker.

I had a wonderful stay at Yala Peak during my first week in Nepal. It was the perfect place to base myself as it was in such a great location. The room was very spacious and clean. Bathroom was okay but very small and in need of some refurbishment but can't complain for the price. The people there were so lovely and accommodating to any needs I had. Always welcomed me with a warm smile. Their restaurant was also wonderful, excellent choice of food and great prices. I lost count of how many times I ate there!

Incredible value in a great Thamel location. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Staff was so friendly and helpful! I stayed in three different places in Kathmandu during my travels and this was definitely the best for the affordable price! The attached restaurant serves great food and is an excellent spot to hang out.

Evening shower was not entirely hot, but morning and afternoon there was plenty of hot water.

We love yala peak! We stay every time we have come to Kathmandu, and they even remember our names! The staff are so lovely and helpful. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The location is good in Thamel, but also nicely tucked away so the roof terrace is away from the main roads. Yes the surroundings are noisy but it's probably as quiet as you could get in the middle of Kathmandu. The food in the restaurant is delicious and it's also a lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend it to be your base in Kathmandu.

Hotel was in cul-de-sac location, which was decently quiet and only 100 m away from busy street. Also, very convenient to have cafe in the hotel with beautiful garden settings. Absolutely fantastic combination.

Wi-Fi was not good. After talking to receptionist I've got different wi-fi connection, which was fine. Towel could have been updated with newer version - was clean just looked quite old.

Staff were seriously good. The location was good. It is good to have an on-site restaurant covering all the meals of the day and long opening hours, even for a coffee.

Walk upstairs to room 5th floor. But we are in Nepal! The internet was pretty sketchy. Might be ok for simple phone tasks but not for laptops. Staff were really good about it asking all the time, but at the end of the day they are let down by it.
