Very nice but a bit out of the way...

The stay was great aside from a bit out of the way and few taxi's or people where it was.The family that owns it are tremendously service oriented and will bend over backwards to help. The b-fast is decent too!

Friendly and welcoming.

Shakya House is in walking distance......10 minutes at most from Durbar Square. The walk itself is very interesting as it is the very old area of Patan and every moment there are amazing sights to see. It is also only 10/15 minute from a large supermarket that has everything you my need. It is well worth the stay as the owner and the staff are very welcoming and will do anything to help. As the sign says... come as a guest and leave as a friend.

Very clean, pretty and welcoming hotel

I spent a lovely two nights at Shakya House. All of the staff were very friendly, especially the owner. I stayed in the Green Tara room (twin) - the mattresses were very comfortable, the room was very clean and had some lovely furnishings. The bathroom is clean and has a very hot shower. There is a pleasant self-service breakfast room with fruit, breads, eggs,cereals, tea and coffee. At the front, there is a lovely, peaceful garden. The location is 10 minutes' walk to Durbar Square which means it is nice and quiet at night too. I would most definitely return to Shakya House!

Finally, a CLEAN place to stay!

The hotel felt the most clean of all of the places that we had stayed over the prior month in India and Nepal - this includes the "3 and 4 star" hotels, which often times just look clean on the surface. The owner was one of the most friendly people who we have encountered in Nepal, and helped to make sure that our taxi driver got us there safely, as well as when we left. 5 or 6 block walk from Durbar sqare. Breakfast was great. Internet and power worked. The only downside was that we couldn't get hot water in the bathroom (but it wasn't freezing either, and this is the case in most places that we have stayed in Nepal).

ホテルそのものは快適。 ただネパールではよくある事だが、此のホテルもドライヤーとかコップなどの常備はなく、欲しいものはリクエストが必要。それが面倒くさいし、何回も何回もお願いがし辛い😓 パタンの中心地は朝早くから人が動き出すので、中心地からも近からず遠からずだったがうるさくなくて良かった。

Super petit hôtel

L'accueil lors du Check on est vraiment très friendly. Tous les personnel est vraiment attentionné. La chambre est une grande chambre avec eau chaude et linges de bains. C’est très propre. Le petit-déjeuner en self service est simple mais très bon. Le rapport prix/qualité est excellent pour ce petit hôtel. Je reviendrai si je passe par Kathmandu.
