Hotel Green Horizon arvostelua

I recently stayed here -- on and off -- in between treks. I can recommend it highly because, though it is located in the heart of Thamel (Khatmandu's tourist ghetto), it is actually quite peaceful. It's back a little alley (50 meters), which means it's away from all the honking horns, chaotic/weaving traffic, touts, etc. But it's not a dark, little alley -- it actually opens up to a spacious area in which the small hotel sits comfortably. The abundance of plants, decks and public areas also creates a decent atmosphere. (There's also a restaurant/cafe, but seems to be mostly only used by residents, perhaps because no one else knows it's there; light breakfast included with room price, or you can order a la carte if you prefer something else). The room was also spacious and the hot water worked. Some rooms have little, private decks, but anyone can access a couple of larger public decks or the indoor/outdoor common area at the bottom. The only disadvantage of the location was some vocal noise from a nearby school at certain exercise times. For me, a key advantage of the place was that they stored my stuff in a locked room, while I went away on some long treks (one lasted over a month). They are accustomed to dealing with trekkers, but it doesn't have the feel (or facilities) of a backpacker "dive." It's a relaxing place to hang out in between site-seeing and shopping in Khatmandu.
