Our story

A home with a traditional heart.

About Purano Ghar

Rooted in everyday Nepal.

Purano Ghar means old house, reflecting our appreciation for traditional Nepali homes, local craftsmanship and the feeling of being welcomed into a family space.

We created this homestay for travellers who want more than a standard hotel stay: a place to slow down, share food, talk with hosts and experience the character of Kathmandu.

Our promise is simple: warm hospitality, a peaceful stay and authentic Nepali food.

Heritage can be felt in a woven mat under your feet, the glow of a courtyard light, a meal shared at the table and the welcome of a home.

From our farmland

We serve what we grow.

Our kitchen begins in the soil. We grow fresh, seasonal produce on our farmland and bring it straight to the table at Purano Ghar.

From garden to plate, every ingredient carries the care of the people and land that nurture it. It is simple, honest food, served at its freshest.
