    The breakfast was great. I particularly liked the delicious curd. The building is beautiful and full of character. Right on the square, the location is very good. This is the most quiet of the main squares so it wasn’t too noisy. Lovely to sit...

    I stayed in the deluxe suite which takes some stairs to get to, but is the only (I think) front facing room that looks onto the square. There is also a view of the interior courtyard, but seeing the square both at night and in the morning was...

    A marvellous old traditional house on a very nice, and relatively quiet, square with temples. An enchanting experience, with very friendly and helpful hosts, welcome coffee, and good restaurant. Highly recommended. If available, get the suite in...

    This is not the first visit to Nepal, but for the first time we stopped in Bhaktapur - it’s definitely worth doing! A wonderful, charming hotel in an ancient building on the oldest square in the city. We asked for a specific room and it was kindly...

    This was my second visit to the Peacock and it was just as charming as I’d remembered. It’s a very old house with a warren of rooms and walkways leading to them all. Each guest can squirrel themselves away from the hubbub outside (it was Nepali...

    Our second visit after a seven year gap. It is certainly the most atmospheric, historic small hotel (really a historic building) in Bhaktapur and overlooks the square that is the centre of festival and celebration life of the city (and the least...

Company information

We are a family-run business with a guesthouse, restaurant and wood carving workshop and showroom. Our owner is easily mistaken as staff as he is pretty hands-on and involved in the day-to-day operations of the establishment.

Property information

The property is a Math (residence for priests and pilgrims) in olden times and this building is over 700 years old. It has a typical Newari building layout of that time with a well in the inner compound. It also has 2 temples right inside.

Neighbourhood information

Dattreya Square is the oldest square in Bhaktapur with the famous Peacock window and is the less touristic area. It is lovely just to sit outside in the square in the evening listening to the temple bells ringing at 7pm over a cup of steaming hot milk tea.
