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"

"I didnt like i had to leave haha!!"

"Really no better place to stay. There are a ton of people packed into this place but unlike most hostels they have enough bathrooms to balance it all out. The view is also spectacular!"

"Aucun."

"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."

Rowena - 23/07/2025 09:02:18

"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."

"After Travelling to Lukla & coming back to wanderthirst to continue my stay in Kathmandu because I am happy with the Hotels, they have everything within the reach what ever you ask for. 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"
