Dalai-La Boutique Hotel

At Dalai-La Boutique Hotel in Thamel, our philosophy is defined by our pursuit of simplicity, elegance, and excellence.

From eco-friendly service essentials to the décor of restored hand-made indigenous artifacts over 50 years old, all within an environment of traditional Nepalese architecture with accents of Buddhist leitmotifs, we aim to create an experience that will stay with you for a lifetime.

Thamel, the tourist hub of Nepal is 6.5 km away from the Tribhuvan International Airport. Our location in the center of Katmandu allows you easy access to other popular sites.

Basantapur, the ancient town square with all the hustle and bustle of local-market vendors and devotees thronging to temples, can be covered in an invigorating morning/evening walk of 15 minutes from the hotel. Swayambhunath, the Monkey Temple, can be reached within 30 minutes with a rigorous walk.

Other religious landmarks and cultural/historical sites such as the Boudhanath, Pashupatinath, and the Patan Durbar Square are within a 10 km radius.

25 boutique rooms housed in traditional Nepalese architecture with dining and lounge area spread over expansive premises.

The Old Wing, formerly the residence of the founding family for over 30 years, retains most of the original structure.
