The owner was extremely kind and helpful, explaining each tourist place in Nepal in detail and guiding us very well. The rooms were very clean, comfortable, and perfectly suitable for families. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Pokhara. The property also has its own vehicles and provides separate travel packages for sightseeing around Pokhara, which was very convenient. The location of the hotel is also excellent and easily accessible.

“A good choice for a quiet hotel”
Very helpful owner. Facility to pay on checkout via Booking.com. Easy to walk to Lakeside. Good cafes nearby. Near mountaineering museum. Avoids the busyness of Lakeside.

“Nice quiet stay in 302”
Located in Damside the hotel is close to a range of independent cafes, coffee shops and restaurants. Located within 15-20 minute walk of Lakeside and 10 minute walk from the tourist coach stop. Also a good location for starting your walk to the peace stupa - a route that takes you through local communities. On clear days you can view Annapurna from some of the rooms. The host and his family were very welcoming and were always on hand to advise re attractions, transport, nepali culture etc. The hotel was spotless and rooms cleaned daily if required.

“Owners are professionally sincere and friendly.”
Location is in a side of center which is appropriate for sight seeing tourists. You can enjoy the happening hour of lake side and sleep peacefully back in a room.

Clean, quiet and comfortable hotel located at damside (end of lake). About 20-30 minute walk into lakeside tourist hub along eco-trail along lake. Hotel near lots of delicious and cheap local eateries. Owner friendly and super helpful with tours. Family owned and run. Highly recommend.

“Dissatisfied”
Hot water not available, the honor disrespected the guests and blamed their integrity and we had to change the hotel due to lack of facilities and respect

“Excellent, would definitely stay here again.”
The room was very clean and comfortable with great views of the mountains. It’s a bit of a walk to Lakeside but there are local coffee shops and restaurants with very reasonable prices. Most of all the owners were super hospitable and welcoming- they made you feel like part of their family.
