The old square in Patan is beautiful. The museum is tranquil and a nice place for food. There are many cafes on the rooftops around the square for drinks/meals in the evening.

Nice hotel in Patan with views of Kathmandu valley and mountains behind. Swimming pool, massage parlour, and on Sundays an organic market. Some rooms from as little as 15 dollars - it's a good place to get away from the heat and dust of the city.

Hotel comprising separate chalets huddled on a hill with spectacular mountain views. Run by Sita and her husband with real affection and friendliness. They can organise treks (the hotel has been used by Everest teams) and will ply you with good local food and ensure you get up in time to catch the mind-blowing sunrises.

You either get a visa from your local embassy or make sure you have a passport photo, $30 dollars, a pen, and the form in arrivals. You can get a form from the Nepal embassy website in advance. There are computers in the terminal but it's all done by hand so be patient.
