Centrally located small hotel with nice, spacious and clean room (room 404 on the top floor). Very nice and quiet garden to sit and relax. Good breakfast and coffee. Very nice, uncomplicated and helpful staff. We enjoyed our stay very much and will for sure return to this hotel if we ever come back to Kathmandu.

The ambassador garden hotel is a very nice local hotel in Thamel, Kathmandu. The location is spectacular! It is located in the middle of Thamel. You can walk to many shops, restaurants, clubs. And bars in the area. It is extremely nice for the price! Bicky and all of the staff were extremely nice and courteous to me. I am a 23 year old solo traveler from the United States. I spent 5 nights with them total. The room was excellent. There was hot water with a nice shower. Bicky was extremely professional and extremely nice throughout my entire stay. He gave me many tips an guidance for roaming Thamel. We had tea many times throughout the day and I am very lucky to have stayed at this location with such professional staff. I plan on coming back again and I would highly reccommend this location over any commercial location such as Marriott or Hilton. (Bicky is a receptionist that shows the utmost professionalism at the hotel).…

Just like coming home! A wonderful and welcoming oasis in the centre of Thamel. Welcomed by old friend Mr Bicky. Excellent hospitality, service, rooms, food and beer. I wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else. Don’t look anywhere else if you want to stay in Kathmandu - Ambassador Gardens will look after you.

We had such a shocking experience that within 15 minutes of checking in, we booked a room at a different hotel and moved there. First of all, there was no reception or welcome desk at the lobby. It took us about 10 minutes to find someone at the hotel - it was an old gentleman, perhaps the manager. And he was the only staff on the premises. When we asked where were the staff, he said he sent they were all away (perfect timing). Our room was on the 4th floor, with very steep, old steps and no elevator. Once we got to the room, we got a lot of shocks. Having visited many hotels around the world, including Nepal, we have some basic expectations about amenities of a hotel room. But the room and bathroom were grossly underequipped. Everything seemed very old and worn down, bearing absolutely zero resemblance to the booking websites you will see. Anyway, we did not have the courage to spend two nights in this dilapidated shack which was an earshot away from Purple Haze, one of the busiest and most popular rock bars in Thamel. The room does have a quaint, old-fashioned charm about it. That is the only reason I am giving it a two-star instead of one. But that's all. It's not a full-service hotel - there wasn't even any staff to give any service. Just the elderly manager running about doing it all on his own. This was more of a Bed and Breakfast or even a high-class Hostel than a proper Hotel. But then again, why would someone want such a worn-down bed and breakfast with no service, when you can get much better service hotel in Thamel at less than half the price. The overwhelmingly positive reviews of this property baffle me. I fear there may be some scam, or worse, discriminatory service going on here. Anyway, I will not recommend this to anyone who is travelling for relaxation or leisurely vacation. If you're more into DIY and like the quaint, barely functioning old-fashioned charm- it may be worth a visit.…

Dear Sam, Warm greetings from Ambassador Garden Home! Thank you for your time and feedback. Please be informed that we are family run small traditional home in Thamel with limited-service employees. We really wished you had read about us prior making booking. Just to share with you our theme is classic and this International award-winning Nepali village home is emphasized to give you the feel of century old premises with long staircase, wooden décor, traditional key locks, no lifts, isolated small check in desk and etc. We understand all travelers have their own taste and we are certain our timeless vintage premises does not fall under your category. Also, we are sad to learn about your experience during check in and we have shared this incident to our concerned department for training and improvement. We hope you had a wonderful stay at another hotel and we wish you fantastic holiday in Nepal. we are bit sad to have 1st time review without staying with us , We have allowed agoda to use same id , if you want to stay with us in future anytime so that you can judge us accurately. We are thankful for your honest feedback! With Gratitude, Prakash Ambassador Garden Home
