My stay at Grand Norling Hotel's Resort was mixed. While the rooms were spacious and the staff was incredibly friendly, the overall state of the hotel felt a bit dated. Some aspects, like the dining experience and the location, left something to be desired. I appreciated the beautiful gardens and the outdoor pool, but the remoteness of the hotel made it challenging to access the main attractions of Kathmandu. 🌿
