Namaste (Greetings) and welcome to Jhigu Chhen (Our home in Newari Language).

Jhigu Chhen is our house which has been converted into a homestay for those who are interested in staying in the non touristy area of Kathmandu valley. Most of all it is a place for socially responsible travelers who want to experience the Nepalese daily life and understand more about the way people live in this beautiful country. It is not an average impersonal, commercial hotel in the touristy area, it is a homestay into which you will be warmly welcomed and given personal attention to ensure that your stay is comfortable and enjoyable.

Our house is located in the southern part of Kathmandu (in the Lalitpur District), about a thirty-minute walk from both Kathmamndu and Patan Durbar Square and a forty-minute walk from the tourist district of Thamel. Because of our accessible and pleasant position just by the Ring Road that connects Kathmandu valley, our guests may quickly visit any part of the city even with public transport.

We welcome all visitors to Jhigu Chhen, regardless of nationality, gender, religion, age, or geographical region, to appreciate and share Jhigu Chhen's excellent hospitality with our family members where we will treat you as our beloved friend. Jhigu Chhen is an appealing option for your stay in Kathmandu, that can be from a few days to several months.
