Truly a gem - remarkable staff, wonderful food, and perfect amenities. I was in a suite - it was perfect for my stay. I could not be happier - after hiking in Bhutan (also wonderful in a different way) for days, this was such a relaxing delight!

Tranquility with Amazing hospitality

From the moment we got in to the moment we left, you could not fault anything. The service was amazing, the room was phenomenal and a great choice of restaurants. I really loved the turned down service, knowing when your back from dinner everything is ready for you for bed. Recommend anyone going to Kathmandu to stay here.

An Oasis of Calm

Dwarika’s is the perfect oasis of quiet, good taste, and a wonderful swimming pool (which unfortunately closes at 5pm). We enjoyed strolling on the street outside to some shops and simple, cheap restaurants for some Kathmandu experiences.

Exceptional service. Staff are helpful and even brought a complimentary cake to celebrate my friend’s birthday. The Taran restaurant is excellent for breakfast, so many options and selections for foods! However, the dinner items were underwhelming. Also, the door to the kitchen is noisy and distracting when dining. Overall, it was a wonderful stay in well maintained living museum to conveniently get around.

Don’t stay here if you want a good nights rest . There was a dog barking all night and drilling and hammering during the day. What a nusaince and mistake to stay here and over priced. I spent over $1200 for three nights and got a better sleep at a $50 Hotel in Thamel.

It’s hard to describe perfect. I’d have to really think hard to make up a fault. I’ve traveled a bit. I’ve never had a positive emotional response like my stay at Dwarika’s Hotel. If you’re a fan of history, architecture, culinary arts, music, dance, sports, customer service, etc. this is for you .

We celebrated New Year’s Eve here. Stay at his hotel made our time more comfortable in Kathmandu. Staff was very nice and accommodating. Food was also good. They accommodated our request to transfer some parts of our stay to their resort in Dhulikhel which was also very nice. Dhulikhel resort although could not accommodate our request for late check out on last day as our flight was late in the evening and that is the only daily flight. That was the only bummer. We were unwell during our stay and could have done with extra rest on the last day before taking the long flight back home.

This place is an oasis at the center of buzzing Kathmandu. Close proximity to the airport is a bonus. You can of course stay at the western chains but if you wish to immerse yourself in Nepalese culture while having the perks of a 4/5 star hotel, this is the place to be. Don’t forget to dine at the excellent Nepalese restaurant.
