Hotel Vajra

10/10 Excellent
"The Vajra hotel is located below Swayambunath in a beautiful garden that is incredibly quiet for Kathmandu. It is an amazing heritage property. The staff are so kind, helpful and excellent! This is a special place but not for guests who like a standard, corporate style hotel. "
