Reviews of Namaste Home Stay

stunning location...great hosts....delicious food and drinks.....really comfortable room with excellent fan ..lovely ensuite.....prem and ian and family go out of their way to provide at home thoughtful service and care...this my second visit and i was more than delighted with the service...cheers to prem for my early morning bike rides to namo buddha..always wonderful

there is nothing to dislike.....its a real home with a loving family...a total pleasure....with incredible views to the himalayas....the charitable intention of providing water to local villages makes your stay all the more meaningful

We had a great time here. Room was cute & clean. Good location - short walk to sites and hikes... Hosts were friendly. Breakfast was tasty. Facility was not perfect, but a great value for the money

Bathroom was down stairs, no paper provided - not a huge deal

close walk to namobuddha so you can try to catch the goings on at all hours of the day if you wanted to. food was EXCELLENT and some of the best pakodas i've never had in my life. owner and family area kind and always there willing to answer questions with a smile.

is along the main road so if you are a light sleeper and in the front room can be a little noisy. but traffic tends to die down to almost nothing at night.

If you're looking for a peaceful place in Namobuddha, just steps away from the monastery, Namaste Homestay is the perfect spot! We spent two days in this wonderful place with a beautiful crew, surrounded by local people, amazing landscapes and immersed in the spiritual life of the monastery. (There are three open meditation sessions daily, and it's easy to join in.) During our visit, we had the chance to take an off-the-map trek and discover the authentic everyday life of Nepali and Tamang communities. Prims and Ian (owners of the homestay) are also involved in powerful social projects in the valley, which we had the chance to witness up close.

The homestay is in a perfect location, with only 15 minutes walk to Thrangu Tashi Yangtse monastery. The view of the surrounding hills and villages was spectacular. The homestay staff was very attentive and provided authentic tasty food. The guy from the UK took us to look around the villages and introduced the meaningful innovative program to install water tank and pipeline for the village inhabitants. The unique experience brough us a closer look to the life of the local Tamang people.

Almost none

Lovely vibe with an amazing family running their own hotel stay. Kind and considerate extra touches. Helped us navigate our connections with local bus hops back to Boudinath. Super helpful! Relaxing atmosphere, great roof terrace with views. Delicious homemade food. Seriously delicious! Clean comfortable rooms and a chance to hear about local charity that supports local villages to access clean water supplies. 20 minutes easy walk to the Monastery.

Can't think of anything!

Such a cozy, and homely place. I immediately felt safe after meeting the family and their beautiful children. The beds were incredibly comfortable, shower was great and warm, with a clean toilet, the view and location made it a 10, as the bedrooms can look to either the sunrise or sunset. And to top it off, the food was insane - best Nepali veg curry I’ve ever had.

I loved the view on Himalaya and monastery, the kindness of the owner, the hot shower, and the food was really good. I really had a great stay there !

Nothing so far.

Amazing food, friendly host

A great fun and very relaxing homestay. Lovely family and fascinating to see the work of the Birimi Foundation too.

The best homestay I've ever stayed in.. Prem and his family are the greatest people I've met in Nepal ( and I mean it!!). You will have an opportunity to stay with many locals and share about their culture. A lot of cute kids were always playing around, so the place was really lively. The food was excellent and the room & bathroom were sparkling clean! The village of Namobuddha is very authentic and the scenery stunning. If you're lucky enough, you will also have the opportunity to meet Ian who lives there and runs a charity association to provide water pipelines for remote villages. Trust me, go there ...that's the kind of place you will never forget.

Nice and peaceful place. Everyone is very nice there. Absolutely suggested for anyone visiting Namobouddha or hiking in the area.

Everything! - food, location, value for money, nearby hikes and last but not least Prem and his family.

We loved everything about Namaste Homestay! My partner and I stayed here for one night on a hike in the Kathmandu valley. Our room was spotless and comfortable with a beautiful view. Prem and Ian were such wonderful hosts - communicative, thoughtful, so friendly and also completely respected your privacy. Prem cooked us an absolutely delicious dinner (with cold beer available!) and breakfast, he clearly put so much effort into the food and it really came though. The bathroom was also spotless and the water was hot. We couldn’t fault this property and would highly recommend it. It was a highlight of our 4 month trip! Thank you Prem and Ian!

We loved everything. From the warm welcome, to the great location, the comfortable rooms, the delicious food, the exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly owners, it was wonderful!

After almost one month travelling we found this amazing homestay where we felt like home and had some of our best days in this incredible country. It's been truly a gift to find this beautiful family, the accommodation is just perfect with stunning views of the valley and the monastery, the room is super cute and very comfortable, and the food is delicious. Namobuddha and surroundings are very interesting and peaceful, we came for 2 days and stayed 5! This kind of place remains forever in the heart and its memory will draw a smile on your face when you'll think of them. Thank you to all the family! We'll come back!

Beautiful and clean homestay. Great view of Namabuddha monastery. The host family was incredible helpful and kind, their food was amazing. We are in Kathmandu now wishing that we stayed longer
