We stayed at Hotel Holiday House for 3 nights during our recent hiking trip to Nepal (1 on arrival, 2 more at the end of the trip). The hotel is nicely located in Thamel, which is where most of the foreigners stay and probably the most happening area in Kathmandu, making it very convenient. Our 3 person bedroom is clean and spacious, with air condition/ heating, hot shower, free wifi, and a TV with lots of channels. Toiletries are a bit basic (only soap and toilet paper) but overall we feel it's very good and a luxury after the basic tea houses during trekking. Breakfast is provided and cooked to order. The hotel is a bit difficult to find as it's nestled in a small side street with no banner/notices on the main street. Compared to the hustle and bustle of the outside street, it's actually quite quiet and calm in the hotel. I personally feel that it's a very good place to stay while in Kathmandu.
