Raniban Retreat

Raniban Retreat is perched on a secluded ridge top 700m above The Phewa lake, and the town of Pokhara.Reach us by rowing boat and trekking on a well made trail, or by road in 15 minutes from Lakeside, and you will be a world away from the grime and noise of Lakeside tourist hotels. The World Peace Pagoda is our only neighbour. The stunning view is what really makes us special. From our rooms and terraces we enjoy heart stopping views to the mighty Annapurna range, Phewa Lake, and the Peace Stupa. All our rooms are cosy when it's colder, cool when it's hot and look out onto the stunning view to the north. Our excellent restaurant menu features seasonal specials, and many dishes feature herbs and vegetables grown in our own organic gardens.

View, Hospitality, Food, staff's behaviour, internet speed, transports everything is 10/10 in our perspective. It's heaven on ea

Reviewed By Dipto D

In case of accommodation everybody love their own house the most. On that note i can say I have a heavenly house in Pokhara on the hilltop of Raniban with a breathholding view of the Himalayas and tranquility that's called "Raniban Retreat." Site head Pradip Dai (a true gentleman) driver Dasu Ram ji they became like family member. And the director Akshov ji, how helpful he is! We stayed there for 4 nights and we shall recall these memories and hospitality of them till our last breath. And i don't know what to tell about the delicious & fresh meals we had there. I can only say, we will must be back there again and again if almighty allows. I wish Raniban Retreat may go a very long way and provide hospitality to the nature-lovers & seekers of peace for upcoming thousands of years.

Nanohana Lodge

At Nanohana Lodge, we always tend to reduce the impact our daily operations may have on the environment. We do not make promises we cannot keep, but we know that every single step taken in the right direction will help us eventually reach our target. Nanohana Lodge is bequeathed to Kul Bahadur Acharya by his father, who started a lodge in central lakeside some 27 years ago under the name of New Star Lodge. For Kul Bahadur delivering quality services stands above all considerations. He also understands the importance of following sustainable practices, in words as well as in deeds, in the operation of such facilities. Host at Nanohana Lodge, Pokhara, Nepal knowing that whatever resources seem abundant today will not remain as such forever, and moved by the rising scarcity of water in Kathmandu and other parts of Nepal, he is committed to minimise its use. "The ruthless exploitation of the existing resources and a disregard of our cultural values for the sake of immediate benefits only drive us towards long term harms," he shares his concerns about rising crowds and careless spate of constructions underway in the lakeside. So he shifted from central Lakeside to found Nanohana Lodge just opposite to his own residence, where he has paid every concern to co-exist with the natural surroundings. "You do not have to be a rocket scientist to find workable solutions for every single problem. Common sense is all you need," he often says. And common sense is his greatest strength, it seems. Although most of his fellow hoteliers went for costlier flush systems in their toilets, he simply resolved to use discarded mineral water bottles wisely, to save two litres of water per flush cycle. Amazingly, it works, and without compromising the main purpose -- keeping the toilets clean. Nothing can encourage us better than your cooperation plus any new ideas you can share with us about sustainabile tourism.

Best location, cleanest Hotel, friendliest people ~

Reviewed By 755rje

This is by far the cleanest hotel you'll find! The location could not be better, about a 3 minute walk to the lake, near the wonderful park. Super nice people running and working at Nanohana Lodge. They will bend over backwards to help you with anything you should need. Incredibly clean, hot water anytime of the day, good WIFI. Super quiet at night, comfortable bed, and the price is right. So affordable! You'll be hard pressed to find a better place to stay in Pokhara.

We booked our accommodation at Bishnu's for only 2 days. We where welcomed with open arms and cared for by Bishnu and his wife. I was a bit sick at the time and they immediately helped me and I felt a lot better the same day! After our 2 days we extended our stay for another week. With no problem. We could also borrow his scooter to go to town or he booked us a taxi. He recommend us the best places and we had so much fun in Pokhara because of Bishnu. He makes you part of the family and it was like coming home. We loved it!

Quiet relaxing place with sweeping views

If you're staying in North lakeside, then this is your place. Quiet, clean, friendly and well run. Best is the balcony views as the place is up the hill a bit. It's a safe place to store your things while trekking.

Safe Home While Lockdown and Friendships for Lifetime

Reviewed By Ukio90

Last spring I went to Nepal to do the Annapurna Circuit with a friend. After the trekking we came to Pokhara but suddenly the lockdown happend. One day before lockdown we left Lakeside to search for a quiet and safe place and we happily found the Greenhills. The Greenhills was than my home for several months - I felt so welcome and accepted from my hosts which were like my own family. We eat together, worked together, laughed together - I learned a lot about Nepali culture, society and family from them. In the Greenhills I spend one of the most happiest times of my life. I woke up early in the morning, worked on my computer, made smoothies with the fresh papayas and herbs from the garden, enjoyed the company of the chicken, went swimming to Phewa Lake or hiking to Methlang or Sarangkot, cocked dinner in our guest kitchen and spend the most beautiful evenings on the balcony. I had the best sleep in the comfortable bed just listening to the sounds of the forest. The Greenhills is sourounded by amazing nature - forest, hills and lake - but still you can reach the Lakeside easily to visit a restaurant or a bar. Now that I am back in Germany I miss the Greenhills a lot and also my hosts which have a big place in my heart. Isshwor-bhai: Thank you so much for your endless hospitality and for your patience with me and Sudarshan, that you and your lovely parents gave me a secure and warm home, for your good company - you are my Putali and I will always come back to the Greenhills, when I am in Nepal.
