Budget Hostels from RM28

"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 the Fish Tail Lodge! The hotel in general is beautiful and the room was spacious and pretty. The breakfast had so many options and even a “bar” for cooking eggs according to your preference. We found very unique having to cross the lake by boat (the ride is only a couple of minutes but changes everything). And finally, big shoutout to the staff, they were all AMAZING and made the big difference for us to bring so many nice memories of our days in Pokhara. I’d pick this hotel again no question."

"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."

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

"Fairly quiet area. My room on the third floor was nice and drafty. It had access to the wrap around balcony and rooftop staircase access. This is a family owned hotel and they provide several things, such as laundry service, breakfast, taxi service, paragliding, bungee jumping, short and long Himalaya trekking expeditions with guides and transportation to all locations. The prices for activities are comparable to other companies in Pokhara, but it seemed much more convenient to use Cherry Garden because you’re picked up and dropped off for all activities directly to and from the hotel. This hotel is right down the street from Lake Side and has many restaurants and shops a few minutes away. I really enjoyed my guide Chitra as he’s been a trekking guide for 20 years and knows the trails and timing between each village very well!"

"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."

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

"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! "
