Perfect place to start my time in Nepal. Breakfast each morning and great suggestions from staff on what to see and do. Coming back soon I hope.

I would highly recommend Elbrus Home. The staff is lovely and very helpful. The rooms are clean and great value for money. It’s also a nice safe haven in the chaos of Kathmandu, but still really close to Thamel. Don’t hesitate to come here, it’s a great hostel!

Overall a very reasonable stay for a good price. Pros: comfy beds, storage lockers, good showers, free breakfast, helpful staff Cons: no curtains on the beds, no social scene

Really great hostel! Free breakfast is a nice touch and khem and his team are very welcoming! I’ll definitely be back. Sometimes might not be the most social, unless you go out of your way to mingle, but otherwise worrh the price!

Super cute home stay in the heart of Thamel. All the staff are lovely and so fun!! Great value for what you pay. Breakfast is great and you can have it in the garden in the morning. Enough people around for it to be social if you want it to be. Rooms are very spacious and the two houses have rooftop terraces. I’m definitely coming back here!

Loved the location at Elbrus home and the beautiful fairy-like garden area 🌿🌀 Included breakfast is basic (egg of choice, tea, banana, bread) but always good ☺️ Only thing to note is that there isn’t much of a social vibe here, of course it changes due to time of year and your experience, but other than breakfast no one hangs out there. Beds were also super comfy, only one fan so little hot at night but not unbearable ✨

Amazing stay! Great location near Thamel but very private. Our room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast in the garden was a highlight and perfect for meeting other travellers. Elbrus can easily organize trekking and guides, which is super helpful. The owner, Khem, is a wonderful man who showed us real kindness when we needed help, going well beyond what’s expected of a host. We're so grateful. Khem and his team are great; you’ll have a fantastic stay here when visiting Kathmandu...

The staff is so friendly! Good location, peaceful, near to Thamel and central Kathmandu but on a more quiet street. Staff allowed me to check in when I arrived at 5am, was really helpful as I was exhausted. Owner also personally walked me to the bus and got me a good deal on bus tickets to Pokhara. It cost less than buying the tickets at the bus station, I recommend booking through them. There is also relaxation area with a lot of books and a garden and several sunny balconies to relax on.
