    As someone from Pakistan 🇵🇰, I had an absolutely amazing experience living in this apartment in Nepal. From the moment I moved in, everything exceeded my expectations. The apartment was clean, well-furnished, and located in a peaceful yet convenient area. The neighborhood was friendly, and I always felt safe and welcomed. The amenities were top-notch — reliable Wi-Fi, hot water, power backup, and a well-equipped kitchen made daily life extremely comfortable. What really stood out was the management: always responsive, respectful, and genuinely caring about my comfort. Whether you're staying short-term or long-term, I highly recommend this place. It was more than just a rental — it truly felt like home. If I ever return to Nepal, I wouldn’t think twice about staying here again.

    The amenities is tip top. I love the location, it’s not far from thamel but not close either. So it is more peaceful but not disconnected.

    I had a wonderful stay at this cozy studio apartment. The space was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully furnished with everything I needed—from kitchen essentials to a super comfortable bed. The location was ideal, with easy access to public transportation, shops, and restaurants. Apartment was very comfortable, it was very beautiful. The view of balcony was excellent. All the appliances were in good condition and well working. The owner was very friendly and supportive and well spoken. It’s a great option for solo travelers or couples looking for a comfortable, hassle-free place to stay. Would definitely book again!

    Feel comfortable like our home, nearby community is very lovely, helpful, kind, supportive and safe. Clean environment. The owner is super host: welcoming; helping, guiding like hosting to old good friends. The reviews from booking.com for this apartment are very genuine, we certified those reviews indeed. We ( me and my husband) came to Kathamandu for relaxation and exploring Nepalese culture. This apartment is exactly what we have been looking for our trip. We will definitely come back again. One more thing I like the fact is simple security system for compound , main door and room door. Superb 😂🥰

    The only downside was the cleaner, who didn’t change our towels or refill the toilet paper. She even asked us to check out earlier, despite the owner's request for a later checkout.

    We had a wonderful 6-day stay at this charming apartment! It was cozy, clean, the amenities were great, and the decor created a warm atmosphere. Our host was friendly and accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed. We highly recommend this place for a lovely getaway!

    Nice, quite place at the edge of the city, great for remote work and relaxing.

    The location is quite far from the airport (I paid 1000 rupees for a taxi) which is a little inconvenient, and getting a bus ticket or to a bus station will require a long walk or taxi ride. The room also smelled a bit of smoke (I am a non-smoker).

    I had an excellent stay at the House of Forrest guesthouse. The location is fairly quiet, at the edge of Kathmandu, far removed from the chaos of downtown. The room is small but adequate, with a fridge, bathroom and comfortable bed. The owner brought up a table to accommodate my remote work needs, and the wifi was also good for this purpose. Access to a washing machine and drinking water were also appreciated, as was the balcony and spacious rooftop area for relaxing.

    everything was perfect. i dont have any complain

    According to my review of the House of Forrest, Service Apartments, I want to say that the owner is an extremely kind and helpful person in everything related to having a pleasant stay. The rooms are very clean, the kitchen and the bathroom also, and if you want, you can have cleaning service provided for the apartments on your room or any of the rooms in the apartment, if you need it. The television works very well, you can watch movies or listen to your favorite music. What I liked the most was that it has heating to be comfortable in cold weather and it also has air conditioning in case the weather is hot. That was the main reason I decided to stay there since I can't stand extreme climates. Another important thing is that the water in the shower and sink runs hot at any time of the day or night. My stay in Kathmandu, near Triten Nortbutse Monastery, has been, without exaggeration, one of the best I've had during my 23 years of practicing Yungdrung Bön. and before leaving i want to say also that you have a personal key that open the door entrance and your apartment automaticaly without bother any body and you can go out and in any time. you can also use the livingroom and the terrace in the 2nd and 3thir floor.

    The location is brilliant for Triten Norbutse Monastery and other great places. The room was clean and well-arranged. There was a heater in my studio. In bigger rooms, there is air conditioning. The view from the roof is beautiful. The hotel has good security arrangements in place. You can come and go at any time of day and night using your electronic card.

    The Hidden Gem and Serene Retreat in Kathmandu
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Studio Apartment
    • Stayed 5 nights

    Situated in a residential and quiet neighborhood neither too far nor too close from the city centre, a stay at the House of Forest is a peaceful retreat ideal for those who want to have solid privacy with all the amenities needed. It is recommended for those who are tired of hostels, digital nomads who want to maintain a life pattern, discerned travellers who want to be away from a touristy area, and alike. Sunshine gently light the room from the direction of head in the morning, and private and shared balconies offer serene time and a great view of the city as well as Stupa. Thamel and other major attractions are within a 15-20 min bike ride which is pleasant and affordable with Pathao, a local alternative of Uber. Transfer service was provided with a welcoming touch, which made my journey easy and smooth. They also stopped by a restaurant so that I could get dinner at the night of arrival.The owner is a friendly and accommodating person, fluent in English and French too. There are many mini shops and some restaurants and cafes nearby, one of which has amazing handmade yoghurt. A washing machine and a real coffee machine with beans were available which was convenient between trips and for my stay in general. All in all, it had what I needed for my wellbeing.
