Aarya Hotel and Spa - Eternal Heritage

Aarya Hotel and Spa - Eternal Heritage

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed at Aarya from 10/11/2025 - 10/19/2025. A unique visit in the heart of Thamel. The rooms were clean and cozy. The staff was more than accommodating and always with a smile. The variety of foods offered for breakfast was an experience in itself. We were able to walk from the hotel to many popular sites and the location was convenient for tour pickups. We visited during Diwali and the Aarya presented a show of native dances and music. Also, if anyone is debating visiting Nepal after the recent protests, I personally felt safer on the streets of Nepal than the United States."
