Some of the best backpacker spots in Bhaktapur

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Great location and great vibe. I met a lot of interesting people at Hostel Swastik that went on to become good friends. The staff are helpful and Bishwo the owner is a really great guy with interesting projects ongoing. I will never stay anywhere else except here whenever I'm in Bhaktapur.

Super cozy and friendly hostel in a great location. Bishwo, the owner is very helpful and knows a lot about the area. He helped me with my indian visa and recommended the best local restaurants and places to go in Bhaktapur as well as outside the city. The hot showers work very well and the beds are comfortable. Furthermore you can use the rooftop terrace of the guesthouse just across the streets for some amazing sunset.

I loved the atmosphere at Swastik hostel. It's a small hostel, but it has a range of different rooms and a guesthouse with private rooms nearby. The people are very chill, spontaneous and hospitable. I felt taken care of, safe and never lonely. We discovered new parts of Bhaktapur every evening for the Dashain festival and really got the local experience thanks to the host, Bishwo. And I still feel like there is loads to discover. I will be back! 😀
