Lonely Planet review

Hidden down an alley, right on the edge of the fascinating old town, the Kantipur Temple House has been built in old Newari temple-style, with fine attention to detail and a commendable attempt to be environmentally sustainable.
This place is really doing its best to be eco-friendly - the food is organic, guests are given cloth bags to use when shopping, and bulk mineral water is available free of charge, so you don't need to buy unrecyclable plastic bottles. The bonus is that you don't have to make any sacrifices for your social responsibility; this is a top-notch hotel. The spacious rooms are tastefully decorated with traditional carved wood and dhaka (hand-woven) cloth bedspreads commissioned from local fair trade shops. The ample garden and rooftop seating give you the space you need to unwind and the charming new block encircles a traditional Newari courtyard. The old town location is close to everything in town, but taxi drivers might have a hard time finding it.
