I have been my in this hotel many times as it's all located near areas of my activity. The hotel had gone through some useful upgrade during the pandemic and it is quite up to date.

Remains reliable
I've been staying here on visits for the past five years and the experience has always been a good one. I had a small suite located at a corner of the building and could see the Himalayas out both windows whenever the weather was clear enough. Bed was comfortable and the large desk was a pleasure to use. Wi-fi was strong and internet connection was fast. Hotel restaurant remains a good choice, although somewhat expensive by Nepalese standards. On the other hand I have never gotten sick from eating there and that has some value as well. Certainly will plan to stay here again on my next trip to Katmandu.

Ambience of the hotel and Fitness Centre is good.
Also service of the staff is really good.
If Fitness centre will have massage, then, it will be really good for the guest.

Relax after your h
Not for tourist on the way in as it is not very central but a great place to relax after you have done your trekking. Fab pool and good gym in a tranquil garden setting. Good varied breakfast but other meals a bit pricey. Some good cheaper restaurants nearby.

Hotel Himalaya is one of my preferred hotel in Kathmandu. June 2022 was the last time I stayed in H Himalaya and I was impressed that it had gone through upgrade during the pandemic. This time however, I was a bit disappointed as I was given a room that was not upgraded and the pillow smelled.
Overall I am still happy overall with my stay but I do wish the management can keep up with maintenance and housekeeping of the hotel.
