Lovely place in Chitwan
Pros:

Staff were really nice and helpful. Nice pool and views of the river. Room was nice.

Cons:

Shower took an age to get hot. Did a great day safari with them. But I thought it was expensive.

Pros:

Utsikten över floden från balkongen där noshörningar ofta kommer nära och betar. Man är nära natur och djur. Det är vad det handlar om här i Chitwan, upplevelsen av naturen. Fin personal där Suraj stod ut i restaurangen med sitt glada leende och alltid villig att hjälpa. En bra vecka med lugn o ro o möten med djur som noshörningar, vild elefant i många krokodiler. Sen är det underbart att sitta vid floden o se solnedgången.

Cons:

Ingen pool då den höll på att repareras. Men det var ändå för kallt att bada. Duschen är det väldigt lågt tryck på så det kommer inte många strålar men det fanns varmvatten om man lät det rinna länge.

My stay at Hotel Riverside in Sauraha was absolutely wonderful! The riverside location was stunning,
Pros:

I really liked the breakfast
it had a good variety and was fresh. The location was excellent, right by the Rapti River and very close to Chitwan National Park, making it easy to explore the area.

Cold and miserable. Manager was rude and threatened to call Police if bad review was left. Wild.
Pros:

The location was great! Loved getting to see the river and the outside areas of the location were beautiful. The check in process was smooth and the front office staff was helpful

Cons:

The rooms were in bad shape. The floor was ripped up in many places and the heaters and hot were were not working in both rooms we booked.

The manager also threatened to call the police when we tried to check out and leave early. He said he would call the police if we left a bad review because we would be "blackmailing". This is actually illegal in Nepal and I was shocked by his poor behaviour.

Pros:

For an additional fee, my room was upgraded to a room with a river view. Overall, the room was good. Staff was responsive. Breakfast was good. I saw a rhinoceros from the hotel grounds, which an employee kindly showed me.

Cons:

The hotel is located further away from the river, but you can see it from the window. The view of the river and the sunset is blocked by the building with the blue roof that is under construction in the photo. I didn't use the swimming pool because the water is too cold.
