    It is very busy around the hotel and can be noisy depending where your room is.

    Beautiful renovated Newari house on Durbar Square. Super nice manager. Big room and good value for money.

    We weren’t able to get hot water for a shower when we were there but that may have been an issue of the timing and availability of hot water. The road to the hotel is narrow and very busy so allow for this in your timings.

    WHH has a fantastic location next to Durbar Square, although some travelers may prefer to be in Thamel. The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly and the breakfasts are good. The room was large and comfortable and we slept well.

    The check-in experience initially wasn't pleasant. Although the room was good, the facilities were not maintained. There was no shampoo in the bathroom. The kettle wasn't working and I couldn't drink warm water in the morning. The seat on the comet was broken.

    The location is good and the room is good. The guard was very helpful while checking out.

    World Heritage Hotel has old world charm and new world service in the heart of old Kathmandu!
    • Business trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 7 nights

    The deluxe room is attached to another room in the hotel through an interior french-style door. I had to secure the interior door on my own so people could not enter my room from the connecting room.

    My week-long stay at the World Heritage Hotel and Apartments (Dwarika Chhen) was terrific. The property is very rustic with modern amenities. The staff is highly attentive. The breakfast was excellent. Sitting in the lobby at a large plate glass window looking out onto the busy street was a perfect way to watch the city go by from a quiet, comfortable spot. The hotel is very conveniently located off the corner of Kathmandu's Durbar Square and the wonderful early morning Asan fruit and vegetable market. There are loads of local tea and food spots to enjoy just out the door to the left. The more touristy Thamel area is an easy 10 minute walk. My deluxe double room (the one in the hotel's pictures online) was very spacious. The room has no AC or heat, but my trip in November had excellent weather (52 to 75 F) and I was extremely comfortable. The shower in the room was very hot and cleansing after a day of work and adventuring - just give it 5 minutes to bring the hot water to the tap. Go all the way upstairs and enjoy an incredible view over the Durbar Square area! The staff arranged for taxi's as needed and were able to make some recommendations for different items I was looking for. Be prepared for a classically built property with loads of character and charm - it was just what I wanted.

    It is a really beautiful place with so much attention to detail, all decorated in traditional style with nice big open spaces, you can enjoy tea or a meal in different areas like the restaurant, cafe, courtyard or garden. The staff are all very nice and friendly, location couldn’t be better just off Durbar Square and food was really tasty as well. It feels special to be in such a place, so peaceful and authentic yet in the very heart of the city.

    Well, with this accommodation I had a problem, that although the hotel is beautiful, comfortable, and the staff is very friendly, I had dinner the second day there at the hotel, I ordered a hamburger, I ate the whole thing and with such bad luck for me it was bad and I spent the whole night in the bathroom, very sick, unable to sleep because of the pain in my stomach. The next day I told the girl and she asked me if I had eaten anything out and I told her no because I had not eaten anything out, which had been the hamburger and she replied that she was sorry and that she was going to tell the kitchen and when I went to pay she charged me for the hamburger and I thought it was terrible and I told her I paid for everything but I didn't have to have paid for the hamburger so I wouldn't go back to this place again. Hotel.

    In my humble opinion, the staff could pay a bit more attention to the overall state of things, be it a broken lamp or a dusty cupboard. But these are just minor things that you don’t really pay attention to.

    The location is right next to Durbar Square and if you want to be in the middle of Kathmandu with all that hustle and bustle, that’s the right choice.

    The room was too small and it smelled wet because there was no ventilation in the toilet and the shower didn’t work and no hot water. No amenities except for 1 toilet paper and 2 tiny soaps. We booked double room and there was only 1 towel. The room wasn’t tidied and furnished very minimally. Just very disappointed overall especially considering the price we paid. Very disappointed.

    The nepali breakfast was good and the location of the hotel was very convenient.

    They charged money before check in. If we saw the room before paying money we would not stay there. Staff is not friendly except one girl.

    Can get some experience about Nepali architecture. 5 mins walk to Kathmandu Durbar square
