Immaculately converted into a boutique hotel by a world-renowned conservation architect, The Inn Patan maintains its rich Newari heritage whilst incorporating modern touches. Crisp white walls, exposed timber beams and dark wood furnishings feature throughout, alongside traditional floor-to-ceiling shutters that, when folded back, fill the interiors with natural light. Built around a private courtyard, the 10 guestrooms come individually decorated with table lamps, low armchairs and inviting window seats.

Set away from the hustle and bustle, this characterful property invites guests to fully immerse themselves in the delights of this secret corner of the Kathmandu Valley, from its thriving handicrafts scene to its spectacular Durbar Square – home to Nepal’s most exquisite collection of palaces and temples. Back at the hotel, guests are treated to a selection of delicious Nepali dishes which can be enjoyed in the delightful central courtyard.
