Gurung's Home

The motive for staying here can only be that it is outside of the busier Thamel area, though I still wouldn't choose it. The price is the same or more than the much better hostels such as Yog, Big Tree, Rest-up etc. The dorm room was windowless, and so tiny that the door could only open 40% before hitting the lockers. The ladder to the bed is broken, so it swings like a sailors mast, and there was thick dust on the metal bed frame. When I arrived there was no toilet paper in the bathroom (though it was added later) nor was there hot water, though thereafter there was. They lock the gates at around 20:30 so you have to shout to get back in, and once again, if you wake up at 06:00am you have to shout and wake them up to get out again. On my departure day I had a bus to Chitwan and wanted to leave at 06:00, but of course there was a huge fuss as the night guy wanted to check if I paid to let me go! I had paid, though it still took 10 minutes which probably woke others up too. During my short stay they make the beds daily for everyone, so your belongings get strewn around the room even if they were neatly on your bed. I had printed an entire itinerary too for an embassy visit which I left on my bed and found crumpled on my return. They did offer a welcome drink on arrival which was a tasty Masala tea, and the manager seemed enthusiastic, though from extensive experience through 12 years of solid travel, I really can't believe this place deserves a true 9/10? I just don't see this as legitimate. Given my experience and that it is equally priced but further away from the centre with lesser facilities, I would be generous with 3/5.

ネパールには15年通っていますが、ずっとお世話になっているのが、グルンズホームのオーナーのモウサムさんです。シンバルツアーという旅行会社も経営していて、ここでもお世話になっています。日本語が堪能で、とても誠実で、どこよりもサービスが行き届いています。トレッキングは、、今回３回目でしたがが、毎回ガイドさんも素晴らしく非の打ち所がありません。ホテルの料理も、ネパール一おいしいんじゃないかと思います。ホテルも、シンバルツアーも、絶対おすすめ。他と比べれば分かると思います！

Stayed here for 6 nights. Staff were amazing, very 'family feel' environment and incredibly helpful with setting up flights and other excursions. Good location close to Thamel main district. Clean rooms with good temperature control.

Gurung's Home in Kathmandu surpassed our expectations. The staff was sweet and incredibly helpful, always going the extra mile to ensure our comfort. Our room was spacious and comfortable but also offered excellent value for the price. The welcoming and homely atmosphere added to the overall charm of the accommodations. Situated on a quiet street, it provided a peaceful escape from the bustling Thamel area. The food here was also amazing and very cheap, and the included breakfast was super convenient. Our stay at Gurung's Home was a fantastic experience that combined great value with exceptional hospitality.

After 3 months in a Nepalese Village I had to get some supplies in Kathmandu. I was so happy to fibd Gurung's Home, a nice retreat in the busy city. The staff are very friendly and helpful The location is fantastic, I am in walking distance to Thamel , Ason Bazar and the major bus routes I especially enjoy the breakfast; sitting under the Kimbu and Bogate Trees.

Just a brilliant place with good food, spacial atmosphere, nice and chill. I like this area, very quietly. And then, owners are just beautifull people! Veeery cozy, I thught I will be here for one time, but stay more
