Excellent stay at Hotel Encounter, nice and peaceful and close by Thamel without the hustle and bustle. Unparalleled staff and service, kindest place we stayed by far in Nepal (or elsewhere for that matter!) Would consider it my home in Nepal, and would definitely stop in for a visit whenever in the area! Particularly great service by part owner Pramod... More

First timer to Kathmandu so it was a pretty eye opening drive from the airport.But as promised by the hotel a driver waiting for us outside which was a relief. We booked for a few nights but ended up staying over a week. The staff become our family, welcoming us warmly every morning and evening! It was nice. A little... More

The staff were second to none, very friendly and attentive. The courtyard is pretty to sit out in and eat, drink. My only criticism is of the rooms. Even though the Encounter is slightly away from Thamel, the rooms are very noisy. For our first night we overlooked the main road, which kept us awake, and for the second, overlooked... More

Came into Kathmandu from the U.S. for a wedding. From the airport to the hotel, it quickly becomes apparent that you are no longer traveling in the western hemisphere. The roadways are chaos with congestion, incessant beeping and exhaust fumes. Upon arriving at Hotel Encounter, it is surprising that just a nudge off of the main drag in Thamel that... More

We, My OM Trip ( Om enterprise) for the first time embarked on a tour of Nepal for the first time, and reached on account of traffic congestion, at Hotel Encounter at Kathmandu at 2:30 AM totally exhausted and famished. At that wee hour, magically Mr. Badri Bhujel with his team provided us with delicious piping hot food and served... More
