Guest reviews for Wander Thirst
"It may take a second to appreciate the hidden brilliance of this hostel, but you quickly will. Every single member of staff is wonderful, from the cleaners to the restaurant and reception. Comfortable beds, good and cheap food, and clean facilities. Easy access to the winding roads of Thames but quiet enough to get a good sleep. I’ll be back!"
"Aucun."
"Great location & staff. Good hangout area to meet other travelers."
"The showers were either boiling hot or ice cold. It was a real struggle to get a decent shower."
"I told the staff i would write a review but its already some months ago... i forgot! however i did not forget the place!! So here i am months later. I met the owner first and his story is very special, wanderthirst is a beautiful open hostel where they also provide private rooms. I slept in both. It was clean, espcially for the low price point its quiet special. Everyone of the staff became my friend and it made me feel so welcomed. The rooms have alot of art and the people who get attracted to this place are creative and fun, the community is a 10/10"

"A very nice hostels in a quiet but central location in Thamel. Heads to Dinesh at the desk who was very helpful and affectionate!"
"Some facilities (toilet, bathroom) were not in a very good condition. Could be cleaner."
"Really nice atmosphere and layout, with plenty of communal areas to meet people or do your own thing. Took the twin room/single room which were both very comfortable! Location is great as it is close to many things, yet not the main street."
"Some of the younger reception staff weren't as welcoming or helpful as I had hoped."

I kept my luggage in their locker room which is nice for the traveler like me to visit nearby places & to go back after 2-3 days. I will definitely recommend this place to my friends"

"Bhiurankot Hill Top Resort is a serene escape with stunning panoramic views, beautiful gardens, and a refreshing pool. My room was clean, comfortable, and air-conditioned, with free WiFi. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the restaurant offered delicious Local Nepali food like Sukuti, Local Chiken and gundruk. Pet-friendly, great bar with hill views, and excellent value. Perfect for relaxation away from the crowds. Highly recommended."
