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!!

The Hotel and Restaurant have a long history in the area. We enjoyed getting to know the owners and share stories. The staff is very accommodating. The rooms are clean. The food is fantastic. Good central location for a lot of site seeing destinations.

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.
