“Absolutely loved my stay at Rato Ghar! The location is perfect: quiet but right at the heart of Bhaktapur, with stunning views of Nyatapola Temple. The rooms are cozy, clean, and comfortable, with hot water and everything you need. I planned to stay one night, but ended up staying more than a week!”

“I stumbled across this beautiful restaurant on my first trip to Bhaktapur and loved it so much I came back and stayed in the hotel for 10 days!
The food is delicious, the view is amazing, and the service is wonderful. Try the Newari Set and the momos for sure. And the Bara is the best in town.”
