vajra house

A warm welcome from the host and his brother. Throughout our entire stay, we were looked after with great attentiveness—receiving helpful advice and enjoying pleasant conversations that gave us an insight into Nepalese life and culture. Our room was spacious, bright, tastefully decorated, SPOTLESSLY clean and equipped with everything we needed. The bed was absolutely comfortable. In addition, Vajra house is perfectly located—right in the center—with a wide range of dining options and shops nearby. It was truly difficult to leave as it was the kind of place where you feel completely at ease. We would love to come back!

Very good location , lovely owner and family and very clean. Thank you !

Vajra House became much more than just a guesthouse for me — it's my home, office, workshop, and a space for absolute reset. I came here for just a couple of days, planning to move on soon, but the atmosphere turned out to be so warm and the space so alive that I ended up staying for a whole month. And whenever I leave for a few days, the thought of looking for somewhere else doesn't even cross my mind — I know for sure I'm coming back here. Why this place is so amazing: Comfort in every detail: Having a kettle and a fan right in the room makes it so easy to settle in and take care of things without having to run out. But whenever you want to step out, the shared kitchen is huge, spacious, and super well-equipped — an absolute pleasure to cook in.  The Vibe & Community: There aren't many people around, which creates a special, intimate and comfortable atmosphere. Guests come from all over the world, everyone is busy with their own cool projects, and it's fascinating to see. This is a place where you actually want to wake up, plan a new chapter of life, and create.  Workspace: There are plenty of cool spots in the common areas to settle in with a laptop, making it an ideal place to work and think productively.  Aesthetics & Location: A special love of mine are the traditional Newari carved wooden window shutters. You wake up, open the balcony — and you can watch the life of the city and temples right from the comfort of your room. The location in Patan is ideal: it’s quiet all around, Durbar Square and charming streets are just a stone's throw away, yet the guesthouse gives you a total sense of privacy and safety.  The People: The hosts and staff are amazingly tactful and nice people; you feel right at home here, like part of a big family.  If you want to truly experience Kathmandu, get inspired, and have an ideal base for living and working — this is 100% my spot. Highly recommended!

I had a wonderful stay at Vajra House in Patan and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. The location is exceptional—you wake to the gentle sound of temple bells, locals going about their morning prayers, and the beautiful rhythm of everyday life in Patan. It has such an authentic, peaceful atmosphere and was one of my favourite parts of staying here. My room was spotless, spacious and very comfortable. I was fortunate to receive an upgrade, which I really appreciated. There’s also a lovely rooftop terrace that’s perfect for watching the sunset, along with a small shared kitchen and fridge where you can make a cup of tea or prepare some fresh fruit. The staff were exceptional. Salish, in particular, was incredibly kind, helpful and responsive, always happy to share local tips, organise my laundry, and assist with anything I needed. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and everyone made me feel genuinely welcome. Another bonus was the nearby Drip Inn Cafe, which serves excellent coffee and delicious meals, and would even deliver food to the guesthouse when needed. If you’re looking for a comfortable, welcoming place to experience the real charm of Patan, I highly recommend Vajra House. It was a memorable stay, and I’d be delighted to return.
