Independent Annapurna Conservation Area hotels

"everything stood out!!! from the reception desk to the breakfast staff. I felt like I was amongst family during my stay. They made me feel very welcome and at home. Tending to every detail in the hotel, you should be happy to have such a wonderful stuff working there."

"Great place to stay--quiet end of the road but still on the lake. Breakfast was great, pool is awesome. We had trouble with the AC which we didn't realize until it was time to go to bed. It was warm in our room overnight. The hotel crew tried to fix it the next day but were unable. To their credit, the management moved us to another room with working AC...and it was a bit of an upgrade,"

"Wonderful hotel, great staff. Views of the lake and mountains from the roof are incredible!"

"Room was great I love the fact that they have an outside porch. Ammenitiws wher"

"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."

"Wonderful location, fantastic service, brilliant spa and yoga. Traditional and modern design of the rooms. The restaurant is ok. Breakfast includes very good choices to order such as fresh juice, omelettes and dumplings. The view is fantastic. Hope to be back! "
