Trip of a lifetime to Nepal

The Sparkling Turtle has been absolutely wonderful for my vacation in Kathmandu, Nepal. The hostel is operated by the owner and everyone has been very friendly, helpful, courteous and kind. Any questions or help I have needed has been met with the highest level of diligence. I have stayed here for one month and every day has been absolutely fantastic.

Fantastic host!

Amazing location up the hill with a stunning view over the city, and so close to Monkey Temple. The family was super welcoming and friendly, and made every effort to include me and advise me help my trip run smoothly.
Due to the season being off-peak, I had the dorm room to myself which was fantastic.
Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Kathmandu!
