Independent Pokhara hotels

"So this was my second time staying at the Hotel Barahi Pokhara and they definitely outdid themselves. From the moment we arrived everyone and everything was 5 stars! First of all the Staff comes out to greet us. Everyone helps you with your luggage.You get a refreshing Welcome drink greatly needed after the long journey. The room was outstanding, very spacious and comfortable. The room was filled with amenities that were entirely complementary. The bed was huge and very comfortable. The whole place was super clean and nicely decorated. The Food at the Barahi is second to none. There isn’t anything they can’t make. The staff really pays attention to each guest and try’s to accommodate all of their needs and wants. Laxmi and Durga are two staff members who I met on my first visit to the Hotel Barahi. They both remembered me and went out of their way to make my stay even better than the first. I cannot say enough about the Outstanding Customer Service of every single member of the Hotel staff. The level of service, the respect shown to the guests, the five star accommodations. The last thing I need to mention is the reason I truly love this Hotel. The level of respect and dignity that the staff shows to each other. Everyone that works for Hotel Barahi Pokhara looks so happy and healthy. Everyone greets each other with a smile and a handshake. They treat each other like Family and everyone looks happy to be part of The Hotel Barahi Pokhara Family. Thanks for including me!"

"Best views anywhere in the world. Maybe within top 10 of places i been..very nice crews.. i will definitely come back. "

"We loved our stay at Hotel Lake Shore. We originally booked three nights as we hadn’t firmed up our travel plans. But after the first day we realized this was the perfect base to explore Pokhara. This is a comfortable, family owned hotel. The rooms are a bit small, but our room had a view of Lake Fewa and from our balcony we could see the mountains. We enjoyed sitting out on the balcony with our tea every morning. Every place we wanted to go was an easy walking distance, plus the hotel set us up with a 1/2 day trip to Begnas Lake. The best part of Hotel Lake Shore is the people. The manager, Sanjog, made sure we were comfortable and took care of everything we needed. Everyone on the staff greeted us each time we passed through the lobby. We’re vegan and though they didn’t have nondairy milk, we brought our own and they generously steamed it for our coffee every day. I would definitely stay here again if I return to Pokhara."

"The property provides the peace and surrounded by mountains and woods. This also gives the view of annapurna ranges. Food service needs some improvement "

"Staff are very helpful. Very nice location with beautiful views. Had an excellent time!"

"An unforgettable post-trek retreat—beautiful design, serene atmosphere, and exceptional service My husband and I stayed at Dorje’s for three nights after completing the Annapurna Circuit, and it was the best decision we made on our trip. From the moment we arrived, we felt deeply cared for—greeted at the Pokhara airport, welcomed with a refreshing drink, and allowed to check in early, which we really appreciated after days on the trail. The property is stunning, with thoughtful architecture and interior design throughout. Nearly every spot on the grounds offers a beautiful lake view, and the rooms are filled with intentional, high-quality touches. Everything felt fresh, clean, and well-maintained. We indulged in spa treatments that included access to the steam room and sauna before our massages—an incredibly relaxing experience. Since we were there at the end of May (the beginning of monsoon season), the property was especially peaceful, and we often had the pool entirely to ourselves. The staff mentioned that it gets much livelier around September and October. We also had the pleasure of meeting Dorje himself and hearing his inspiring story of building the resort after years in the restaurant business. His hospitality ethos is clear in every detail—from the delicious, fresh food at the on-site restaurant (we happily ate most meals there) to the genuinely kind, attentive staff who go above and beyond to make your stay exceptional."

"Too many words to write. Just perfect to unwind. "

"Amazing experience. Very calm and comfortable atmosphere. Bathroom ventilation can be better"

"Incredible and fantastic resort. The best I’ve stayed at so far. And I’ve stayed at Marriott, Aloft and other 5 star hotels in Nepal, this is the best experience by far. The details they put into this hotel is really top notch. The place is beautifully maintained daily, the grass are always free of leafs and branches, the gardening job is done perfectly, and they do this everyday. The housekeeping team is like magic, the second you left for lunch and come back, boom the room is made and it’s perfectly clean. The service are the most incredible, I was sick for days and they gave me thermometer, electrolytes, ginger lemon honey tea, make outside of the menu soup for me and get it delivered to my room, they called the doctor for consultation, and even gave me a free ride to the hospital. And then everyone is asking “how are you, are you feeling better”. It’s really incredible, made me feel like home and truly cared for above and beyond. Even the driver they have is amazing the car is clean, snd the way he drive is extra gentle and careful make you feel safe. You know they put in all that extra effort to add to the experience."
