    The rooftop garden was a perfect retreat after a busy day, and the attentive staff, especially Hari, made navigating Kathmandu easy and enjoyable.

    Central location (Thamel) and it was quiet. Breakfast isn't outstnding but ok.

    Room was not ready on the proposed chekin-in time. When we could enter the room it wasn't cleaned. Cleaning took 4 minutes... They then gave us another, bigger room instead. We paid 40$ which is far too much for Thamel. You get same rooms for 10-15$ in Thamel.

    rooftop views
    water pressure
    traffic noise

    From skeptic to superfan

    Breakfast options were varied, with freshly made omelettes and local dishes. Enjoying the beautiful rooftop with fine city views was a highlight!

    I faced some inconveniences with the bathroom water pressure. Could've been better! Occasional noise from nearby traffic slightly disrupted my peaceful moments.

    The garden in the back was a surprisingly fantastic spot, perfect for afternoons with family, playing cards, and enjoying a few drinks near the gas heaters they light up each evening. The quality of the bedding and the cleanliness of the rooms definitely stood out.

    Outside noise from traffic and barking dogs was quite present, and the limited hot water availability was not ideal-waiting for 15 minutes wasn't the kind of luxury I expected. While there were some redeeming qualities, my experience was marred by those issues.

    sleep disruption

    I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Moonlight, especially the lovely tranquil garden area for a peaceful escape and the attentive staff, particularly Manager Hari, who assisted with our trekking plans and local inquiries.

    Lift noise disturbed sleep.

    Modern and clean accommodations with attentive staff. Breakfast offered a good selection, including cereals and freshly made omelettes, a highlight worth mentioning. While the area wasn't the most ideal, the convenience factor did help.

    minor downside

    A Relaxing Haven in Kathmandu

    The breakfast buffet had a great variety, including good local dishes, and the charming garden provided a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy a drink. The rooftop views were amazing, with a beautiful perspective of the city. One minor downside was the slippery floors, so be cautious while walking around, especially if you have kids.

    Highly Recommend for Families!

    The rooftop terrace was just very nice! We spent every evening up there, soaking in the magnificent views. Plus, the breakfast was a good mix of traditional dishes and fresh omelettes made just for us upon request, unbeatable!

    It wasn't exactly budget-friendly, but totally worth it!
