First
review:
I
stayed
there
on
a
professional
trip
to
Kathmandu
in
June
2023,
and
I
needed
to
be
close
to
the
French
Embassy,
which
is
why
I
gave
it
5
stars
as
far
as
the
location
is
concerned
(this
criteria
might
differ
where
other
travelers
are
concerned).
The
hotel
is
tastefully
decorated,
the
staff
is
nice,
the
prices
are
correct
and
the
Italian
restaurant
makes
some
of
the
best
pizzas
I
have
ever
tasted,
Italy
included
(I
wasn't
impressed
by
Roman
cuisine).
The
reason
why
I
am
not
giving
5
stars
to
the
room
is
that
A/C
units
are
sometimes
wrongly
located,
as
it
was
in
my
room,
which
is
to
say
blowing
directly
on
the
bed.
This
prevented
me
from
using
it
as
a
consequence
and
ended
up
kind
of
ruining
my
sleep.
I
do
recommend
booking
that
hotel,
however,
since
the
pros
largely
outweigh
the
cons.
Second
review:
I
went
back
for
a
couple
of
days
in
December
2023.
The
hotel
is
apparently
under
new
management/ownership.
It
is
still
ok
but
several
things
had
gone
downhill,
which
is
why
I
downgraded
service
and
overall
evaluations
from
5
to
4
stars.
The
hotel
maintenance
in
general
seems
less
professional,
the
breakfast
which
used
to
be
great
is
now
a
small
buffet
with
limited
choice,
and
the
prices
have
gone
up.
The
Italian
restaurant
is
still
as
good
though.
But
I'm
not
sure
I'll
go
back
if
the
prices
remain
that
high.
other
hotels
nearby
might
now
offer
a
better
quality
for
money
ratio,
like
the
Tibet
for
instance,
according
to
some
of
my
friends.
