Oasis Kathmandu Hotel

Oasis Kathmandu Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is clean, close to many restaurants, shops and central to all things tourist life but tucked away in a quiet neighborhood area so very quiet at night. The restaurant has good food too. If you want authentic Nepalese cuisine ask for it as normally they tone down the chili for the tourists. Breakfast was good. AC works great too as well as fast WiFi. Staff and Service were exceptional as they kept our bags for a few days when we were trekking tigers. We would stay here again."

"Very close to the airport and the hotel has a shuttle. Very clean and friendly staff. Only two things I wish had been different- they called at 8:15 to say the breakfast buffet is ready. They serve til 10:00 and I was sleeping. The shower never got warm. The tv is bigger than other hotels and has internet. There are many restaurants nearby. I will return."
