5-Star Hotels in Gandaki, Nepal

Absolutely stunning mountain views, we even got to see the 'golden mountains' at sunrise, which was breathtaking. The room facilities were great, everything you could need and all in good condition. The roasted nuts they provided daily were especially delicious. The staff were very nice, and most importantly, the chef's food was genuinely delicious. We stayed two nights, had two dinners and one lunch, and it cost a total of 840 RMB. It really was incredibly tasty! Every room has a balcony where you can see Machapuchare (Fish Tail Mountain). The 4th-floor pool and observation deck offer even better views than the rooms, so if you want to take photos in the morning, head up to the fourth floor. Taxis are a bit pricey, but you can also take the cable car down the mountain, though it's a bit of an effort. But then again, the mountain views are worth it!

After a couple of bad accommodation experiences in Pokhara, according cleanliness and facilities. We found that The Culture Resort professionalism and care for hospitality in general succeeded our expectations. The cleanliness of the room, the reception staff and the housekeeping members were specially nice and welcoming.

The location is peaceful and relaxing, and everything you need is conveniently available within the hotel. The lakeside is less than a 10-minute taxi ride away, making it very easy to explore the area. If you request it, the hotel also offers a cable car discount, which is a great added benefit.

The hotel was perfect in terms of location, service, and facilities. The breakfast had a wide variety of options, and the restaurant also had a music and dance show every night. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Chinese people choose carefully. I feel that this second-ranked list is really not worth it. It should be a swipe. I spent 1,500 to book a room. The same price is far different from the Marriott Hotel in Kathmandu. The price is at the level of a five-star hotel. Except that the hotel is close to the lake, there are not many highlights. The rooms are shabby and small. The food is not delicious and rich. If you have dinner, it is very expensive at your own expense. I wanted to go out to the Peace Pagoda and asked the hotel how much the fare was. I was told directly at the door that the hotel had a car and the price was 3500 round trip. I thought it was a bit expensive, so I went directly to the opposite side of the lake to find a black car and the price was 2000. It was a big difference. Twice as much. I really don’t recommend it and I probably won’t book with them again. But there was one highlight that impressed me deeply. The ferry uncle and the security guard were really nice, kind and gentle.

I stayed here for 1 night then left to hike and then came back for another night. One of the most impressive hotels I’ve stayed at anywhere in the world. Professionalism is 10/10 from the security guard to the restaurant waiters to the receptionists to the manager Rozeena. Everybody was just going out of their way. Food was great (I had the chicken tandoori), the hotel has a genuinely good aesthetic with the pool and the lake view. The location is great (ATMs right nearby). The rooms are clean and neat. Hot water ran fine. Bed was soft. Live music in the restaurant. Great guard dog (golden retriever). My final day activity ran over time and they even let me check out a little later after notifying them in the morning. Big breakfast buffet that also runs pretty early so was able to get it both days. They have their own airport shuttle too which was cost effective and easily arranged. Pretty much every box ticked. Would highly recommend if you’re visiting the area and I will definitely be back when I visit Pokhara again.

My husband took the kids there after hiking. The environment is very good. The water in the swimming pool is very good. It feels rich in minerals. The room type was upgraded in the off-season. The owner, Doji, is very enthusiastic. The kids didn't stay long enough when they left, so they plan to go back after hiking next time.

I stayed at this hotel before and after my four-day trek in Poon Hill. It's the only five-star hotel in Pokhara, offering excellent value for money. While the location is a bit out of the city and quiet, it's conveniently located near the airport. It boasts a swimming pool and gym, and the hotel's own massage center, KINJJALA, is particularly noteworthy. The service was warm and the massage therapists were professional. A deep massage after the trek relieved most of my fatigue. During our conversation, I casually mentioned my birthday, and the massage center informed the restaurant to bring me a small cake and a group birthday song from the staff while I was dining. Thank you, beautiful KUSUMU! She was a highlight of my trip.

Очень хороший отель. С балкона вид на горы (см.фото), тихо, можно выспаться на свежем воздухе. Я была в начале ноября и спала без кондиционера с открытым окном, никаких Комаров не было, но на этот случай в номере предусмотрено средство от москитов. На крыше небольшой бассейн с прекрасным видом, хорошо бы конечно его открывали в 5-6 утра, чтобы можно быдло вступить там рассвет (это пожелание). Из бассейна можно подняться в СПА на 6 этаж и сделать массаж. Массажистка великолепная. 90 минут массажа стоит примерно 60 долларов, но это очень хороший массаж и атмосфера прекрасная.

I’ve read other reviews for this hotel and am amazed it has been given 5* rating.  The staff certainly are excellent, and the pool is nice, but the rooms are very basic, quite dismal, and lacking in anything of quality.  Towels were stained and grey from poor laundering, sheets OK but pillowslips stained.  The towel rail was fitted  askew.  The open shower was too close to the toilet so that, even with the curtain drawn, water escaped and I had to dry it before I could use the toilet.  I had breakfast on 2 days: starts at 7am but egg station not ready until 7.15 on both mornings.  Food, again, was very basic with not much choice and certainly not ‘delicious’. Sorry, but I rate this as 3*.
