"The staff at Hotel Vajra are lovely....helpful, friendly and full of advice. The food is fine, with a good buffet style breakfast and eggs cooked to order. The garden setting gives some tranquillity amid the very busy Kathmandu streets, and the craftsmanship and historic feel to the hotel are highlights. Second time I have visited this hotel -and I would recommend it to others."

Oasis Kathmandu Hotel

Oasis Kathmandu Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay was wonderful. Mr Tulsi, the Manager and the rest of the staff are kind, respectful, accommodating and hospitable with their guests. The hotel is clean. tidy, orderly and fresh. Breakfast is included. Food at the restaurant is delicious. If we ever go back to Kahmandu, we will stay at this hotel again. By the way, the hotel location is a stroll away from the market which is so much fun to browse and buy souvenirs. Thank you Mr. Tulsi and to your staff. Namaste"
