by John Marx Velasco · September 10, 2018

Following our more than 24-hour journey, nothing more has made me excited than a nice room with cozy bed to sleep on. I was hungry and exhausted after all the flights and stopovers that we had. When we finally arrived in Kathmandu, I just couldn’t wait to go to our hotel then have a quick meal, nice shower and a restful sleep. Good thing, we booked our stay at Bodhi Boutique Hotel. It’s a new budget hotel in the city center offering clean and comfortable accommodation.

The hotel provided us an airport pick up, which we found very convenient. Travel time to reach the hotel was about half an hour. After passing through the busy streets of Kathmandu, our driver dropped us off in a quiet alleyway in Thamel District where Bodhi Boutique Hotel is. I instantly felt that this will going to be a nice place for us. It has a peaceful neighborhood that also provides easy access to souvenir shops, restaurants and tourist attractions.

The staff warmly welcomed us upon our arrival. We went inside the hotel then I presented my passport to the front desk for them to check our room reservation. I also filled up a form with my details. When everything was confirmed and settled, the receptionist then handed me our room key. Our room was on the third floor of the hotel. Unfortunately, there are only stairs. The receptionist asked us to leave our luggage and the staff will just bring them to our room.
