    From the moment we arrived, we were treated like family. Sara and Sudan were incredibly helpful and always went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Our private room was amazing, with lots of natural light throughout the day. the location in Gongabu was perfect for us, with supermarkets, ATMs, and fresh produce just around the corner. It was also a convenient 40-minute walk to the bustling Thamel area, including Kathmandu Durbar Square. We would definitely choose Sara's again when we return to Kathmandu.

    Nothing, all excellent! 💯

    We had a blast exploring the hiking and cycling trails around the area. The views were so sick! The host was super chill and even upgraded our room. We were able to leave our stuff when we went on our epic trekking adventure. it was a lit experience!

    If you're into partying, this place might not be your vibe. It's more chill and quiet, which is cool for some people, but we were hoping for a livelier scene.

    I had a authentic experience staying at Sara's Backpackers. The hotel is located in a peaceful, local neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle. The rooms were spacious, clean, and well-ventilated, rare to find in Kathmandu. The WiFi was reliable, and the hotel offered delicious homemade daal bhat.

    The area around the hotel is perfect for hiking and cycling. We explored the scenic trails and had epic adventures. The staff was super cool and gave us insider tips on the best routes. Plus, there was always free high-speed WiFi, so we could instantly share our selfies and stories with the world. It was the most epic trip ever!

    If there's one thing we'd ask for, it's a better party scene. We were up for some wild nights and expected a bit more excitement.

    The staff was friendly and cute, providing trustworthy information. The location was great, away from the crowded tourist center but still close enough to explore. The surroundings offered plenty of things to see and do, including nearby villages and countryside. The environment was wonderful, worth the price, and the owner, Sara Didi, was like a caring elder sister. The hostel had good wifi and convenient facilities like home-cooked meals, currency exchange, and laundry services.

    Couldn't fault.

    The neighborhood is super cool, perfect for hiking and cycling enthusiasts like us. We had a blast exploring the nearby hills and trails, soaking in the breathtaking views of the valley. The hotel staff were a bunch of legends and gave us great tips for adventure activities. Plus, the rooms were so comfy and cozy, making our stay even more rad!

    As wild party-goers, we would have loved it if the hotel had a happening party scene at night. It would have been the cherry on top of an already amazing stay.

    We had a blast exploring the vibrant neighborhood surrounding the hotel, full of authentic Nepalese charm. the location was safe and quiet, allowing us to escape the chaos of the city. the friendly hosts went above and beyond, offering delicious traditional meals and arranging transportation for us.

    The kitchen was a disappointment as it was constantly messy and filled with smokers, making it difficult for non-smokers like us to enjoy our meals.
