What friendly welcoming staff! Good food in the kitchen, cute 70s charm decor rooms with a tranquil garden downstairs and relaxing rooftop.. an ideal place for a first stay.. Highly reccomend this hotel especially if its your first time in kathmandu, central with all amenities outside your doorstep, and at an affordable price depending on your budget.

Just remember that this is Kathmandu and not a central European City, just returned from spending several nights at Hoel florid before and after trekking. The hotel is on Z Street whuich is in the centre of Thamel but it is a cul de sac so no through traffic which makes it very quiet. The hotel is run by a... More

This hotel is overall a great budget option in the Thamel district of Kathmandu. My husband and I stayed on 2 separate occasions and had the same room both times, but we are aware that we had one of the bigger rooms (402). I believe that all of the -02 rooms are larger with ensuite bath. Other rooms are smaller... More

I read some reviews and decided to stay at this nightmare place but it was the worst experience I have ever had in all my journeys across Asia. First the hotel staff did not want to change us any money (nepali rupees) to pay the taxi driver as we had only large nominals and they insisted we pay the taxi... More

Nepal was a big culture shock for my father and I but we ended up not wanting to leave. Hotel Florid has basic rooms with shower and toilet attached.

First things first, this is not a luxury hotel. But for a budget hotel, I think this is one of the better ones I stayed at during my time in Nepal. I've stayed at other guest houses/hotels and paid more, for less quality than Hotel Florid. Overall the rooms were very clean and well maintained (I could sleep without having... More

Travellers beware: Kathmandu is cold at night and not every hotel has 24-hour hot water. This hotel is one of them. First the owner's wife came to our room who simply said no hot water. Then a young male staff came and said no power (but we still have lights). We asked him to find hot water for us. We... More

My husband and I were in Nepal in October 2012 and stayed multiple times at Hotel Florid as we used Kathmandu as a base for other excursions. The owners and staff were very warm and welcoming without being too friendly or intrusive as some other hotels can be ( I talking about you Hotel Courtyard). The location of the hotel... More

The hospitality of the owner, his family and staff is what you expect when you stay in Nepal. Nice and clean rooms and in a quiet street. This is where you want to stay in Kathmandu. Ina and Marco (room 501) Breda The Netherlands
