What our guests say

Mr. Giri and his wife welcomed us like family. The bed was the comfiest I slept in during my whole Nepal trip, and the home-cooked dal bhat on the first night was outstanding. Best value accommodation in Kathmandu by far.

I can’t recommend this homestay enough—it was truly a home away from home! … Mr. Giri and his wife were the sweetest people and most amazing hosts!!

Stayed 4 nights before our EBC trek — Sacred Trails was the perfect base. The team helped organise permits, packed lunches, and gave us a full pre-trek briefing. Room was spotless. Highly recommend.

Ich habe in vielen Homestays weltweit übernachtet — Sacred Trails gehört zu den besten. Ruhige Lage, saubere Zimmer, hervorragendes Frühstück und eine Familie, die wirklich für ihre Gäste da ist. Absolute Empfehlung!

In English: “I have stayed in many homestays around the world — Sacred Trails is one of the best. Quiet location, clean rooms, excellent breakfast and a family that is truly there for its guests. Highly recommended!”

Lovely boutique hotel — only 9 rooms so it feels like home. Staff knew us by name within hours. Did the Kathmandu Heritage Walk with them — best $45 we spent all trip. Will stay every visit.

Ein Ort voller Leidenschaft und Gastverständnis!

In English: “A place full of passion and hospitality.” Jo describes Giri going out of his way to help, suggesting day trips, rooms that feel brand new with very comfortable beds, a panoramic rooftop view of Kathmandu and a quiet night's sleep.

Very beautiful place right on the edge of shivapuri national park. … Clean and cosy with a very nice host!

Summary: a little-known area with real local character — close to Kathmandu but on a hill with fresh air and good views, near cultural sites. Praises the host, the Wi-Fi, the backup power and the laundry service, and recommends it for longer stays.
