The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Quirky & Comfortable

I was absolutely charmed by my room at the Royal Penguin Boutique Hotel & Spa. The décor was wonderfully quirky and captivating, making it hard for me to leave. The beds were impeccably clean and comfortable, and I loved the under-bed lighting that created a soothing ambiance. It felt like a cozy retreat. What a good stay!

Luxurious Showers

The bathroom in my suite was impressive! It offered a spacious layout and an incredibly strong shower with abundant hot water. After a long day of exploring Kathmandu, taking a shower in such a well-maintained bathroom was rejuvenating. This was definitely a highlight of my stay.
