At Dalai-La Boutique Hotel you will find a terrace and a bar. Other facilities offered at the property include a shared lounge, a ticket service and a tour desk.

It is a one of its kind hotel. Probably unlike any I have ever stayed in. The ambience of the place just lifts your spirits. It keeps you wondering how did someone come up with this place. And to top it off, the staff is so friendly and helpful, service is exceptional, food is good. They arranged for our daily outings and provided us any detail we asked for. Our stay here really completed our Kathmandu vacation. We are a family of 4 and stayed in their family room with two double beds. The room is called 'Manaslu'.

Shambaling Boutique Hotel is located 8 km away from Kathmandu Airport and a 20-minute drive from Kathmandu Valley. The iconic Boudha Stupa is only 1 km away, while the Pashupatinath Temple is 4 km from the hotel.

We were very impressed by the kindness of the staff. They were always willing to help e.g. carrying the luggage, booking taxis and offering instructions and in room service. The hotel was a calm oasis around the chaotic city. The food was of high quality and the room service offered traditional dishes that were well made and comparably affordable. In general, the hotel has has a character and it is not commercialized.

    The experience I had at the hotel was very good. A combination of a boutique hotel designed with every detail in mind. Attentive and gentle staff for all my needs. Caused me to make it my home hotel and for all my friends who will come to Kathmandu. The room is cozy and clean. A comfortable mattress and a pampering shower. Perfect location in a quiet and modern area and within walking distance to the stupa. There are also pre-ordered meals. A good and indulgent breakfast. .

    1 The knowledgable and good mannered staffs! All of them. They are so amazing that I wonder what kind of on-job training they are taking! I enjoy a lot especially the quietness in low season. 2 The big idea about eco friendly. I have no problem at all about the dimmy interior design as well as the drinking water (no plastic botttle) because I am conscious it’s for the environment. 3 the classy and old school architecture. So surprised to know it’s only 24 years building. 4 the pancake and fresh juice in the buffet breakfast

    Comfortable location, comfortable bed, good sized and well designed rooms, I had one with the balcony and a lovely rooftop restaurant and Bar. But what I liked mostly were the staff, starting from the hotel owner Ram the receptionist Apsara the guards and the great people who works at the rooftop. Feels like a family hotel with the luxury of the west.

    It is a hidden gem when it comes to budget friendly accommodations in Nepal. What sets it apart is the inclusion of a lift service, a rarity in the price range. The rooms are clean, cozy, and provide everything you need for a comfortable stay. The staff is incredibly friendly and goes above and beyond to ensure your experience is enjoyable. If you are looking for affordable accommodation without sacrificing convenience, I highly recommend Capital Boutique Hotel.
