Gaju Suites is centrally located in the Thamel district of Kathmandu. Staff was friendly at reception and quite helpful with needs such as making local phone calls and providing advice. The restaurant was clean, and food was good, however breakfast had limited choices and wait staff were not very attentive. I should mention that service in restaurants all over Kathmandu was quite inconsistent. Hotel was clean and in good condition, water was hot. I could hear the live music in my room from the restaurant upstairs which might be difficult for light sleepers. It wasn't loud enough to keep me from sleeping, and was over every night at 11, so I never asked for a different room. I think there were some rooms which are not directly under the restaurant, or I could have asked to move to a lower floor (was on 3rd, re staurant on 5th). Overall, good impression, but I wouldn't pay more than $35/night which was my 'discounted' rate. There are plenty of other hotels of the same caliber with rated in the mid $30 range.
