Tiny Living Apartments

Where We Are

Apartment Locations in Central Kathmandu

Tiny Living Apartments sit on New Plaza, Putalisadak — one of the most central postcodes in Kathmandu. From our front door you can walk to Thamel in twelve minutes, reach Tribhuvan International Airport in roughly ten minutes by taxi, and be inside Kathmandu Durbar Square in a quarter of an hour. This page lists every walking and driving distance worth knowing before you book.

A Quick Sense of the Neighbourhood

Putalisadak is the rare Kathmandu address that sits inside the tourist arc and stays residential at night. We're a five-minute walk from Durbar Marg's cafés, ten from the bookshops of Bagh Bazaar, and just over the river from the bahals and craft workshops of Patan. The Department of Immigration (where every trekking and long-stay visa eventually gets processed) is a three-minute stroll from the front door — handy on arrival, and equally handy on the morning of a departure.

Because Kathmandu's neighbourhoods are stitched together by short walks rather than long bus rides, picking your base really matters. Stay in Thamel and you'll feel the city's tourist energy at full volume — fun for a night, exhausting for a fortnight. Stay deep in Patan and you'll trade Durbar Marg's convenience for a daily river crossing. Putalisadak threads the needle: walkable to everything travellers come for, but quiet enough at night that you actually sleep. That is the choice we made for guests when we built Tiny Living, and it's reflected in every distance below.

Getting to Us From the Airport

Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) is roughly 10 minutes (3.4 km) by taxi outside rush hour. Our airport pickup option (configurable at checkout) covers up to four guests one-way via a vetted local driver — pick normal or luxury at booking time.

For independent arrivals, use Pathao or in-Driver from the airport — typically a third of what street-driver flat rates cost. We'll WhatsApp you the exact apartment address and smart-lock code the day before check-in. See the Directions page for video walkthroughs and tips for working with taxi drivers who aren't confident with Google Maps.
