Hotel Horizon

Kathmandu


The Horizon is a good upper budget choice down an alley off the main street in southern Thamel, making it a quiet and central option. Most rooms are bright and spacious, although the bathrooms are slightly dingy, and there are some nice terrace seating areas, including around the newly designed courtyard.
