The royalty at its best. This place is so beautiful. The architecture the decoration, the designs, the stories that every area told you. Its a storybook setting for travelers. The room was so beautifully designed, patio had so much seating space. Restaurants had such great tasting food. The folk dance dinner event was mindblowing. We had a great time. Staff was so hepful in arranging our spa tratment and outdoor activities including money exchange. Very friendly and helpful. My stay was for 3 days and there was always some fun event going on. The art gallery to shopping at babar mahal is definitely a must. Lots of beautiful photo moments. I definitely would go again.

Perfect place to stay
Everyone was extremely kind and helpful, the room was beautiful and the breakfast included had a ton of variety. The only issue I had was getting someone to pick up my laundry to have it cleaned but it came back promptly the next day smelling great and neatly folded.

I had a very good stay at Baber Mahal Vilas. The hotel is safe and is centrally located in Kathmandu. The staff are very kind and helpful. The facility has very good restaurants. Getting around is straightforward and taxis are relatively cheap. I expect I will stay there again when I plan to visit Kathmandu in the spring of 2025.

Beautiful heritage property with lots of interesting quirks and fab decor. Loved that we had several dining options. Local craft markets within the grounds of the hotel was such a bonus. Staff were attentive though on one occasion one or two at reception could have done better. Overall very enjoyable stay and wish we could have experienced it for more than one night. Definitely recommend.

The hotel had its charm and it was pleasant being there but it wasn’t close to anything and the area isn’t clean, sidewalks are broken up and the traffic was nerve racking. The staff were very helpful and breakfasts were very good.

A charming hotel with charming staff. Lots of dark wood and glass chandeliers, beautifully decorated and very comfortable rooms, all in excellent condition. Part of a complex with restaurants and shops, so plenty of choice. Friendly and helpful staff completes a memorable stay. Convenient location too.

The Baber Mahal Vilas is in a quiet neighborhood away from downtown. There isn’t much in the immediate area, but the restaurants in the attached shopping mall are all pretty good. We had massages, which were very good - just be sure to check that you get the time you paid for. We were shorted about 20 minutes, and the hotel management resolved the issue to our satisfaction.

This was the loveliest hotel! The staff are so kind and attentive. The facilities are in great condition and so convenient. The rooms are beautiful with so much history and personality. The overall building is so beautiful and features really unique architecture. I cannot recommend this hotel enough! Some friends of mine visiting Kathmandu at the same time stayed at other hotels (Soaltee and Aloft) and while both had their merits, our hotel outshined theirs by leaps and bounds. The surrounding shopping area is so cute and convenient and has gorgeous artisan goods like books with nepalese paper, cashmere scarves and pashminas, and more. The nearby restaurants are tasty and affordable, and the hotel breakfast is delicious.

I understand this is one of the best hotels in the city. It is a reasonably comfortable stay and acceptable as long as you understand that the infrastructure and development in the country on the whole is limited. Do not expect the same level of service amenities and comfort vs other top hotels in other cities that are more developed. They are still learning and I was happy to give the hotel restaurant some feedback to help them get better.
