The location is amazing, you are at the door of Bhaktapur's heart. I found superb that the owner and staff share with us the cultural events, they showed us around, told us about the traditional food and best places to eat and also enjoyed with us! We felt like a family there, everybody was very kind and helpful with anything we needed. Also the facilities are comfortable and clean, the place is super cool, warm space ideal to meet other travelers. But you can also find your space at the terrace and enjoy nice views of the city and mountains. We will definitely come back! Pd: We tried the best Dahl Bhat in Nepal here ;)

The staff are fantastic, you can tell they are hospitality people. The hiking and other activities they help you arrange are fair priced and well organised. I had a fantastic time overall.

First of all, the staff is always super polite and helpful and it makes your stay already perfect. Dorm was extremely clean (showers as well) and all day two ladies are running for cleaning. But what I really loved was location: you are close to all attractions but also you can feel calm atmosphere in the hostel. Thanks to previous comments owners, I could make perfect choice.

The stay was very pleasant. The owner Sunny ji made sure everything was alright and contacted me even prior to my arrival. The room and bathroom were clean and peaceful and the breakfast was tasty. After getting stuck in the floods, Sunny ji let me cancel the stay free of charge, for which I am also very grateful. I recommend this place to everyone!

This is the best hostel I’ve stayed in recent times. Everything is so perfect. Got a wonderful working space. Thank you so much for setting up this wonderful place for people who love to travel and work. Even the staff gave me coffee when I needed the most while I was working late at night. Will be back soon!

All hostels in Bhaktapur

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Great location and great vibe. I met a lot of interesting people at Hostel Swastik that went on to become good friends. The staff are helpful and Bishwo the owner is a really great guy with interesting projects ongoing. I will never stay anywhere else except here whenever I'm in Bhaktapur.

Super cozy and friendly hostel in a great location. Bishwo, the owner is very helpful and knows a lot about the area. He helped me with my indian visa and recommended the best local restaurants and places to go in Bhaktapur as well as outside the city. The hot showers work very well and the beds are comfortable. Furthermore you can use the rooftop terrace of the guesthouse just across the streets for some amazing sunset.
