Quiet Hotels in Kathmandu
By:Ellen Dean

Kathmandu, Nepal is situated in a fertile valley at an altitude of 4,000 to 5,000 feet. It is a small space with an area of only 220 square miles. Boasting 12 UNESCO World Heritage sites, it is a resting spot for many tourists who enjoy hiking up mountainous trails from the town. Kathmandu offers accommodation options for all budgets, from hostels to luxury suites. Though the city can often be a bustling haven of activity, there are many quiet hotels to be found.

Hotel Thamel
Thamel is the bustling city center of Kathmandu, filled with restaurants, shopping, bookstores and small shops to wander through. Hotel Thamel is in the middle of this colorful scene, which is a convenient location if you are interested in renting trekking equipment, bicycles or making arrangements for a host of other activities such as rafting, wildlife tours or sightseeing tours.

The hotel is located down a quiet, lazy lane and offers moderate prices. Inside of each of the 20 deluxe guest rooms and 47 standard guest rooms are modern amenities such as air conditioning, televisions and telephones. They also offer same-day laundry service, transportation rentals and 24-hour room service. If you feel like avoiding the loud sounds of a frantic city, have a meal in the quiet hotel restaurant
