"Amazing views from amazing property. However, wasn't a big fan of their breakfast buffet (I thought they would have a bigger selection). Orders from the menu was alright, could've been better.
I got the deep tissue massage and it was really good. They didn't have any relaxing music like the spa/massage places in NYC so I played some from my phone (they're having construction on the site, so the noise was a bit bothersome)."
"An oasis of peace in a busy city! Good communication before arrival to organise a taxi pickup from the airport at 1am, and staff were helpful with anything I needed during my stay.
Room was very clean, bathroom a bit dated but good shower.
Breakfast in the garden was delicious and what a lovely atmosphere!
Would definitely book again."
"Beautiful property, really lovely staff who will help you with anything and remarkably quiet for Kathmandu. Great spot as well, 3 min walk from Boudhanath Stupa. "
"Great location, short walk to the Boudhanath stupa. Ease of vehicle access as hotel is near main road. Well designed, luxurious, quiet and comfortable room. Staff were always attentive and friendly. Thank you for the hospitality."
The best area to stay in Helambu is in the villages along the Helambu Circuit Trek, with Tarkeghyang and Sermathang being two of the most developed and convenient options.
Tarkeghyang is a central village along the popular Helambu Circuit Trek, known for its large Buddhist monastery, which is a significant cultural landmark. It offers several guesthouses and teahouses, providing comfortable accommodation options for trekkers. The village is located amidst terraced fields, offering expansive views of the surrounding hills and valleys.
This area is particularly well-suited for trekkers and those interested in cultural exploration. Trekkers appreciate the availability of facilities after a day's hike, while those seeking a deeper understanding of Sherpa culture will find the monastery and local interactions enriching.
When is the best time to go to Helumbu?
The best times to visit Helumbu are during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) seasons.
During these months, the weather is generally clear and stable, offering pleasant temperatures for trekking and excellent visibility for mountain views. Spring brings blooming rhododendrons and other wildflowers, adding colour to the landscapes.
