I had a truly wonderful stay at this Kattel homestay. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. Everything was perfectly maintained, clean, and comfortable. The surroundings were peaceful, creating the ideal setting for a relaxing day. It was truly a delightful experience, and I would gladly return for another stay.

Peace Homestay is away from the busy center of Kathmandu. Definitely a big plus because the area is really quiet. The room was awesome! Bed was cozy and quite spacious. Also Wi-Fi connection was really good. Every evening, we joined for the home-cooked dinner. It was just so delicious! We liked it so much here that we decided to stay again here on our last days in Nepal.

Good facility with plenty of solar powered hot water, clean, well situated at the center if Kathmandu, away from the more touristy Thamel, very safe. A genuine Nepalese experience in a great neighbourhood. I stayed February/March 2025 and only left because it was fully booked beyond the dates I initially booked. Im hopeful its available next trip! Bobby owns and operates the place and made my stay awesome, picked me up from the airport and took me to many places it would have been difficult to arrange to go to; showed me all the essential shops in the area (theres a great convenience store downstairs) and gave me many tips on how to navigate the city's peculiarities. Thanks, Bobby! See you next year!

The overall feeling is like to have a sleepover at your friends house. Welcoming family, always smiling and have kind words to everyone. The owner prepares the breakfast and after asking where can we find mangoes she bought for us the next morning. If you ask for recommendations from the owners they can advise which places worth visiting. (temples, restaurants, Bazaar, and more) Fabulous place, RECOMMENDED 👌👌👌

I truly feel like home here! This my first time, travelling that far away alone, seeking a deep connection to not only nature, people or culture but my true self. Your welcoming, caring and kindness really warmed up my heart and gave me confident to explore all the beauty of Nepal. Thank you so much, I’ll come back!
