Hotel Blue Horizon

Kathmandu


Renovations have revitalised this old favourite, adding a spacious garden and a new block of midrange rooms. There's a wide range of options spread over multiple floors and terraces; the deluxe rooms offer the best value. Best of all is the secluded location down an alleyway off Tridevi Marg, which makes it super easy for transport around the city.
