Charming place to stay… this place is quaint, the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. But if your looking for high end or fancy by western standards go elsewhere. There is no elevator which was fine with us. There is no pool or sun deck for lounging which again was fine with us. We were in the heart of Thamel with shops and restaurants galore; loved every minute of our short stay and have already recommended it to like minded travelers. The in house breakfast was excellent and more than we could eat.
I loved it all ! This unique and quaint property is a delightful addition to your Kathmandu vacation ! In the heart of Thamel handy for durbur square city centre all walkable
The rooms are awesome in size and fully equipped to accommodate you and awake refreshed to an awesome brekkie and frankly great coffee .
Get to know your locals the rickshaw guys the taxi drivers the street sellers !
I stayed 14 nights and frankly I wanted to stay a thousand !
Give it a try you won’t be disappointed !
Side note there building a new hotel and it’s going to be spectacular!
Ambassador Garden House is a nice boutique hotel in Thamel. The garden area is very relaxing, the staff are attentive and the bed is very comfortable. The kichen/cafe staff make a very nice coffee and breakfast.
Unfortunately the stay was bad. The water in the shower was almost always cold, the hotel was very poorly maintained, the TV didn't work, nor did the air conditioning, everything was very precarious. It's not worth what it costs. The staff are very friendly but cannot solve the problems. I wouldn't go back.
A small but very nice boutique hotel midst in Tham
A very nice hotel in the middle of Thamel. Very nicely decorated with a quiet garden in the courtyard, where the restaurant is also located. Our room (Super Delux) was very spacious and traditionally decorated. The staff is very helpful and friendly. every time we come to kathmandu we stay at this hotel at the beginning and end of our trip and will continue to do so. It almost feels like coming home.
We had an excellent stay at the Ambassador Garden Home. The location is right in the heart of Thamel and we loved walking about the neighborhood. Great options for cafes, bars, and restaurants all around. The staff at the hotel were super helpful and friendly. Great breakfast served each morning. And they helped us arrange taxis, and whatever else we needed! Rooms were clean, bathrooms were nice, hot shower, wifi! I highly recommend staying here!
Location is good, but price could be down if we consider its facilitates are old and just ok. But people are nice.

I check out very early in the morning. I could not pay my bill for the dinner, cause I have change it to my room.Luck, The person that pick me up it’s from Nepal. He had to go back later to pay my bill.
We had an amazing stay. Owner scheduled a car so we could travel out of city to great lookout that gave us fantastic view of the magnificent mountain range and Mt. Everest.
Great breakfast each day and pizza was delicious, especially with a nice cold Nepal Ice.
We just loved the ambiance of this hotel. It wasn't pretentious, just has a very cosy,homey vibe. It's very central in Thamel, so lots happening here, but our room was very quiet at night, the beds comfortable. Breakfasts (included) we're very good, the excellent Nepali coffee served in Bozeman with hot milk : yums.
Ich habe mich sehr wohlgefühlt in diesem Hotel. Ganz generell wird mir Nepal in sehr positiver Erinnerung bleiben, das liegt natürlich auch an den Menschen im Ambassador. Ich würde jederzeit wieder in diesem Hotel absteigen. Die Lage ist ausgezeichnet. Auch das Essen ist sehr gut. Besonders hervorheben muss ich Krishna - der Mensch ist eine unglaublich gute Seele.
Not sure how this has such a high rating. It states duluxe but far from it. Very dirty, beds loose, noisy and wobbly. Shower was disgusting, with panels on the wall falling off. Much better and cheaper accommodation in that area.
Not sure how this hotel is worth the regular price quoted and is always on sale at about $55 which represents about 60% of the regular rate. I thought it was a great deal until I arrived. Rooms are dated, security of the rooms are poor using a padlock to lock the door, AC leaked water onto the floor, no sound proofing, poor access having to continually jump a puddle of water to the entrance, just not worth it compared to some of the other places available. Stayed for 5 days and then moved to another hotel for the next 5 days. Will not stay here again and would not recommend this place.
This place was wonderful. Everyone was welcoming and as a single women traveler, I felt very safe. There were some quirks: the air conditioner didn’t work and I had to move to another room after I unpacked. Some of the lights didn’t work and the fan in the bathroom didn’t work. The place was very clean and the decor was very thoughtful. The food was delicious and the breakfast that came with the stay was delightful. I do have one word of caution, beware of Vicki the manager, he is quite a player. He knows EVERYTHING! So he claims.
Situé en plein quartier de Thamel, il est néamoins très calme. La nourriture est excellente, le personnel très ouvert est aux petits soins. la qualité du service est top. Ils peuvent aussi organiser des excursions sur mesure pour découvrir les environs.

Ci avevano dato una camera nn corrispondente alla prenotazione, ma dopo esserci lamentati ce l’hanno gentilmente cambiata. Staff super cortese e disponibile! Andrebbero lavate le tende, il resto molto pulito. Nota dolente è troppo vicina ai locali che mettono musica per tutta la sera..

The price quoted on Expedia website is way higher than the actual price.
I booked this hotel as a treat for my nephew at the end of our trip and was pleasantly surprised at the care and attention of the staff. The place is beautiful, the food is very good and it is also right in the heart of Thamel
