The host is really genuine and welcoming. The food is amazing and for a good price. This hotel is located in a quiet neighborhood, not so touristic. Everything is clean. Plus, he gave us great advice about trekking in Annapurna.

This place is just the best. If you’re seeking a true, down to earth Nepali experience, look no further. Such a WONDERFUL, caring family surrounded by exceptional nature, freshly preparing every meal with ingredients all grown right in their garden. The room is simple yet totally sufficient, if you’re wanting swanky hotel room comfort then you don’t suit this place anyway. It’s just bliss, honestly. Such a beautiful escape from the world and such lovely company. If you’re lucky with the weather you’ll catch a sunrise over the Himalayas right from your bedroom, but that’s certainly not the main attraction. Stop searching and book this place now, (and add an extra night or two to what you were originally planning)

Very helpful hosts that provided me with a lot of recommendations! They weren’t pushy either even though I opted not to do a trek with them. Awesome homestay experience!

I assure you that you can please yourself at this wonderful hostel!! I'd love to come back this place in my future, and I recommend my friends who would visit Kathmandu! - Mira & Sudarshan's warm hospitality and thoughtful personalities were commendable. They welcomed me as a real family, and I felt like staying in the real home. I could enjoy chatting with them and other guest over tea or dinner. Following my request, they offered cooking lessons so that I could learn how to cook some traditional Nepali meals (Dal Soup, Curry etc.). I was more than happy, and I'm sure that I would cook after I go back! - Entire building were always well cleaned. Rooms were spacious enough and very clean. - Air-conditioning and hot water were available in the room although it is not so common in Kathmandu. - Small kitchen equipped with plates, cutlery, pan etc. in the room were helpful for me to cook by myself although mostly you can order amazing food :) - Home-made meals were very tasty. They cooked following my preference all the time. ex.) allergy, spicy level, preference of veg etc. - The power went out several times, but there were back up ight in the room, and also wi-fi was available even during the blackout thanks to the backup power. It was soo helpful for me and there was no stress! (blackout happens anywhere in Kathmandu, then you cany blame this place at all :)) - When I had some problems, they were always supporting me very kindly. - There was a cozy rooftop, where you can enjoy great view and fresh air. - This hostel is located in a bit suburb (takes about one hour walk from the central Thamel), but you can find many small shops around. Personally I found several cute cafes around and enjoyed my time there with coffee or tea! I loved them!

This is a perfectly situated, comfortable homestay run by lovely people. It had the bonus of a kitchen, which I think would have been a great social space usually though we were there a little out of the busy season.

I had a great stay at Traditional Newari Homestay. I can recommend everyone to stay here. Dinesh and his wife do everything to offer you a pleasant stay. They are always ready to help. They also offered to store my luggage when I went trekking. I returned to Traditional Newari Homestay several times during my stay in Nepal. The homestay is characteristic and has spacious rooms. The homestay makes you feel like you are at home. They provide a delicious varied breakfast and cook tasty evening meals. Thank you Dinesh and his wife!

The homestay owners are one of the kindest people I've ever met in the world. I'd go back to Nepal just to stay with them again. I highly recommend this place, and experience the warmness and excellent hospitality of this home. It's a home away from home. You become family.

I booked this place before and had to come back. The owners are the most loving, caring people I have met during my travels. I call them my Nepali Family. I always felt home, secure and happy. The house is beautiful, clean and the Nepali food, freshly cooked by Mira herself, delicious! We had regular BBQ sessions on the rooftop, with a view over Kathmandu, which was a highlight. I can definitely recommend this homestay to all individual or group travelers looking to stay in Kathmandu.
