“This hotel offers a tranquil and well-equipped stay with excellent amenities”
06 Apr 2025
Magnificent! Clean, pleasant staff. Charming view of the city. Away from the hustle and bustle of the center. The best option for common areas. I could work on my laptop peacefully. Access to the rooftop. Hot water is always available. The dining area has a mini-library, board games, and a guitar 🙏

I stayed at the Sparkling Turtle in February 2025 for 10 nights during the Buddhist teachings. And my experience was wonderful. Great warm atmosphere, beautiful sunrise view from the rooftop to the Kathmandu valley, its own small restaurant on the third floor. Everything is very clean, neat and tasteful. There are both shared and individual rooms. And the prices were very pleasing. 👍🏻 Convenient location. Swayambhu Stupa and Buddha Park are within walking distance. Just 5 minutes and you are already there. Special thanks to the owner of this complex. Ajeet, I appreciate everything you have done for me and wish you the development of your business. I am sure we will see each other again soon. In general, I recommend staying here, friends. I am sure your experience will be even more enjoyable. 🙏🏻

This hotel is a true gem in Kathmandu. It is incredibly clean, peaceful, and affordably priced. The location is strategically very convenient. Swayambhu is just nearby. Other parts of the city are also easily accessible. The view from the window is simply breathtaking—you can see the city of Kathmandu beneath your feet, with mountains visible on the horizon. The owner is an incredibly kind person who is always ready to help with any questions. I highly recommend staying at this hotel. 🙏🇳🇵❤️

I stayed for 4 nights and it was perfect. The room and the facilities were perfect with a great view of the city. Great location for the monkey temple. Ajeet, the host was incredibly helpful and friendly when helping to organise my trip for me and maximise my time. Would stay again !

▫️ highly professional and welcoming team who make you feel home 🤍 Mr Ajeet, the hostel owner, is one of the warmest and deepest people I have ever met. He's so caring, he even came to pick me up from the bus stand at night, and he's very attentive and wise ▫️Everything is made with love in this brand new building 🤍 Every detail in the hostel has been carefully taken into consideration to create the perfect atmosphere for guests, from the stylish design and decorations with a deep meaning to the super comfortable beds, mats and slippers. I also liked that every room has a private bathroom and a private shower room, separately; every bed in the dorm has individual light, a socket, a shelf and a locker; in the dining hall there's a tiny library, some boarding games and also musical instruments 🎼🎵🎶 ▫️ Location and breathtaking views 🤍 It's located in walking distance to the main road, Swayambhu bus stand, shops and restaurants, famous attractions like the Buddha park, Swayambhu and Monkey temple, The Single Tree, Tergar monastery etc, and at the same time it's located at a quiet place on a hillside so you can enjoy the stunning city views and good sleep ▫️ delicious and beautiful food 🤍 Every meal and even just a cup of tea or coffee is made and served with love and a bright smile by Sandesh, the owner's cheerful assistant, who's always in the hostel and who can quickly solve any problem 💪 ▫️ Safety for female solo travellers 💯 I was feeling very safe and relaxed there. Didn't even want to leave the place I'll definitely stay in the Sparkling Turtle again and will recommend it to other travellers! 💜💜💜
