Hotel Utse

Kathmandu

the rooms all have a view on a wall of a building adjacent to the hotel less than two meters away, others on an internal courtyard and one on the main road where it is impossible to rest due to noise throughout the night.
the level of cleanliness is very low.
The showers do not have curtains and therefore the bathroom remains slippery and dangerous to use.
only one little soap, no shampoo.
only one big towel, for all use. no any other for furthermore use or size.
No refrigerator in the room.
No air conditioning.
Stained sheets.
high price for such low standards.

Take aware !

Vest choice in Kathmandu, right in Tamel area. Beautiful Tibetan style. You will feel like at home with ama Dicki. Food is gourgeous also. Don’t miss to spend sometime in the terrace at the top floor!

Best hotel!

Located in the heart of Thamel, the Utse Hotel is much more than a hotel, it is a family place where you feel good as soon as you walk through the door. The owners and staff are adorable and caring. Kindness, smiles, service, everything is done to make you feel at home and that's what happened to us. We stayed at the Utse Hotel for three stays during our trip to Nepal and every time we passed, we felt like we were getting back to the family coconut dough.

More than a hotel: a family cocoon!

Family hotel established in 1971 in the heart of Thamel. Tibetan tradition maintained by the founding couple always happy to welcome you to their establishment now run by their children. Warm, friendly home in a traditional setting with impeccable outfit. Restaurant associated with a very good quality/price ratio with Tibetan or newarie cuisine. A simple and warm stay in a family atmosphere. An address where you come back because you're at home.

Hotel Utse: we come and go as friends!

We recently spent several nights at the Utse hotel both at the start and end of a months stay in Nepal. Due to Covid and the 'off season' the hotel was very quiet but still run to the same high standards that we have become used to over twenty five years. The rooms are spotless and the delux one we stayed in (which was excellent value for money) had received a very high standard of refurbishment during the lockdowns. The bathroom (whilst previously fine for us) is now of an excellent standard with hot water, a little dependent on solar at times but fine for our needs. There is heating and TV if required and extra duvets which are needed in December. The rooftop garden is still a delightful place to sit and relax in the winter sun. Deepak and the team were so helpful during our last few days in assisting us with pre departure paperwork and pcrs. We were also a little unwell on our last day (From another restaurant) but we were able to order exactly what we wanted from the kitchen (potato, boiled egg, pancakes) whilst we were recovering. Everyone at the Utse is so kind and helpfu, it will always be our home in kathmandu.

Return to our 'home' in Kathmandu

I really enjoyed Utse. The staff were all lovely and the rooms were great. Whenever we were in Kathmandu we chose to stay at Utse. 

We were a group of 18 and they were easily able to accommodate us for a good price. 

They have hot water (it may take a while to run) which is unlike many other places we stayed at in Nepal (which only have lukewarm water). Utse is also located in Thamel and is close to lots of attractions including the garden of dreams and durbar square. The rooms in Utse were nice, each one was slightly different in a different way. Some had bigger bathrooms, some the water didn't drain properly after the shower, some had a light which turned on every time the generator did (which happens a lot in Kathmandu as there are many power cuts). The only probelm we had was the noise. There is no inslution so every sound can be heard, people talking quietly in the room next door or motorbikes on the street below, but everywhere is like that so it was alg. Overall they were some of the best we stayed it. 

The rooftop garden is a great place to sit and watch the sunset over much of Kathmandu. It's very peaceful and also a nice way to people watch on the street below. 

The restaurant downstairs is also amazing and needs to be tried on any trip to Nepal. Utse is located in the heart of the tourist district and about a 30min drive to the airport. I think it has a lot of value for money and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay. It has a lot of character and makes you feel homey in a place far from it.

Amazing hotel located right in the heart of thamel

I have been frequently visiting Nepal and staying at the Utse since 2006.  A wonderfully charming and calming hotel after the chaos of the Thamel streets.  It has a sensational restaurant serving Nepalese and Tibetan Food.  All the rooms feature beautiful Tibetan decor and the Hotel is owned and run by Ugen and Diki.  They are a mine of information regarding Kathmandu and surrounding areas.  I couldn't recommend this hotel more highly.  Michael Bright.

Frequent visitor since 2006

We used this hotel to start and end our Nepal trekking holiday and we really enjoyed both one night stays.
It’s a short drive from the airport 20-30 mins and located in the heart of tourist Kathmandu.
Utse is one of the original hotels and it’s history shows in its ability to provide what you need and to offer its guests real Nepal character. 
The service was excellent throughout our stay
Rooms are basic and a little tired but completely functional and most importantly clean
Great breakfast and dinner in the hotel restaurant 
An easy walk to most of the sights, shops, bars and restaurants 

If you want a sensible priced hotel I would highly recommend this place it has real character

Authentic and friendly Kathmandu hotel

Arrived in Nepal mid July and this hotel was a fantastic first impression of the place. Staff were super lovely, the room was very comfortable and the food in the restaurant was incredible! Nice location too. Only downsides was noise from the street at night and the bathroom was cramped & the shower didn’t drain very well. Overall a very pleasant experience and would happily return :) 

Lovely first impression of Nepal 

I took a UK student group and they made us really welcome. The food was consistently good and the rooms were clean and comfortable. But the helpfulness of the staff is what really makes this hotel stand out. Situated on the Thamel shopping area and within walking distance of the central sites it makes for a good location to visit Kathmandu.
