Dear Friends,

Welcome to our website and thank you for choosing ROKPA Guest House. We invite you to share with us a unique experience.

ROKPA  is a charity, set up by Dr. Akong Tulku Rinpoche from Tibet, Dr. Veit Wyler and Lea Wyler from Switzerland and is run almost entirely by volunteers all over the world with a mission to serve people in need.

ROKPA has been working since 1980 for people in need in India and Nepal and since 1990 in Tibet where it has over 120 projects. Since the nineties ROKPA also helps in South Africa and Zimbabwe and other countries. In Kathmandu ROKPA gives  new life and hope to the poor, homeless and deprived through a yearly Soup Kitchen, a Women's Workshop, a Medical Tent and a Children's Home for previous Streetkids.

Our Guest House is ‘The place’ to stay when visiting Kathmandu. By choosing us you will not just have a pleasant holiday, you will also give a vital support to ROKPA for running some of its major projects in Kathmandu AND you will give some ROKPA children (previous streetkids) jobs as they will be the ones looking after you here. Thus you will become part of ROKPA family, one of many people from around the world, who carry the ROKPA spirit in their hearts.

That is why we call our Guest House 'Your Home Away From Home'. By staying with us you give a HOME to children who, without you wouldn't have any home at all! 

Be part of it too!            

            Become a family!             

                         Welcome home!
