I really enjoyed Utse. The staff were all lovely and the rooms were great. Whenever we were in Kathmandu we chose to stay at Utse.

We were a group of 18 and they were easily able to accommodate us for a good price.

They have hot water (it may take a while to run) which is unlike many other places we stayed at in Nepal (which only have lukewarm water). Utse is also located in Thamel and is close to lots of attractions including the garden of dreams and durbar square. The rooms in Utse were nice, each one was slightly different in a different way. Some had bigger bathrooms, some the water didn't drain properly after the shower, some had a light which turned on every time the generator did (which happens a lot in Kathmandu as there are many power cuts). The only probelm we had was the noise. There is no inslution so every sound can be heard, people talking quietly in the room next door or motorbikes on the street below, but everywhere is like that so it was alg. Overall they were some of the best we stayed it.

The rooftop garden is a great place to sit and watch the sunset over much of Kathmandu. It's very peaceful and also a nice way to people watch on the street below.

The restaurant downstairs is also amazing and needs to be tried on any trip to Nepal. Utse is located in the heart of the tourist district and about a 30min drive to the airport. I think it has a lot of value for money and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay. It has a lot of character and makes you feel homey in a place far from it.

We recently spent several nights at the Utse hotel both at the start and end of a months stay in Nepal. Due to Covid and the 'off season' the hotel was very quiet but still run to the same high standards that we have become used to over twenty five years. The rooms are spotless and the delux one we stayed in (which was excellent value for money) had received a very high standard of refurbishment during the lockdowns. The bathroom (whilst previously fine for us) is now of an excellent standard with hot water, a little dependent on solar at times but fine for our needs. There is heating and TV if required and extra duvets which are needed in December. The rooftop garden is still a delightful place to sit and relax in the winter sun. Deepak and the team were so helpful during our last few days in assisting us with pre departure paperwork and pcrs. We were also a little unwell on our last day (From another restaurant) but we were able to order exactly what we wanted from the kitchen (potato, boiled egg, pancakes) whilst we were recovering. Everyone at the Utse is so kind and helpfu, it will always be our home in kathmandu.

I have stayed at the Utse many times over the last 40 years or so and cannot recommend it highly enough. The rooms are very clean, the food is excellent and Deki, Ugen, Deepak and all the staff are so kind and helpful - nothing is ever too much trouble. It may not have all the facilities of a higher grade hotel, but who needs fancy shampoo and a trouser press before going trekking or exploring the Kathmandu Valley. It is my home from home when in Kathmandu and I love relaxing on the roof top terrace!!

Room Tip: Thamel is a noisy area, so ear plugs are sometimes a wise idea.

the rooms all have a view on a wall of a building adjacent to the hotel less than two meters away, others on an internal courtyard and one on the main road where it is impossible to rest due to noise throughout the night.
the level of cleanliness is very low.
The showers do not have curtains and therefore the bathroom remains slippery and dangerous to use.
only one little soap, no shampoo.
only one big towel, for all use. no any other for furthermore use or size.
No refrigerator in the room.
No air conditioning.
Stained sheets.
high price for such low standards.

A great place to stay in the heart of Thamel. The hotel is full of history and the owner is a delightful person to speak to to hear her story and the hoistory of this iconic place. The staff were very accomodating and very helpful in making our stay ( a group of 14) vey comfortable. The staff were able to point us in the right direction for sights, T-Shirt printing and restaurants although the food was excellent here also. This is a must for any traveller in Kathmandu who appreciates the real family touch. Thank you for your hospitality. Hope to return soon

Hotel Utse was the starting point of our multi-week trip through Nepal. We were able to store our luggage for our different treks here without any problems. The rooms were clean and the food was very tasty. If we travel to Nepal again, we would check in here again.

Good point - good location and good price.
Bad point - we booked flights using the front desk staff and found out that they were trying to con us out of $100 by saying there was only business seats on the plane available which we later found out not to be true once we got the tickets. Once we discovered this we spoke to the hotel manager who was very helpful and shocked at this and arranged for the person in question to refund the money. We were very disappointed with the member of staff as they had appeared to be very helpful throughout our stay but in turn took advantage of our trust.

We stayed here at the start and end of a trekking trip. The hotel is very friendly and the owner and staff were very concerned and caring for my wife who was unwell there for a few days . We were made very welcome on our return from our trekking trip as if we were long lost friends. No doubt they do this all the time but it is done very genuinely.the food is also very authentic Tibetan and delicious. I would happily go there again !
