Pros:

W zasadzie nie było problemów. Było w miarę ciepło, hotel ma podłogowe ogrzewanie. Była ciepła woda. Śniadanie ok. Jednak ma to przełożenie w cenie za pobyt.

October end 2024 Stay.
Pros:

Travelled October end 2024. Hotel staff is good and check in on the guests periodically. I travelled with senior citizen parents and the stay was good. The hotel is not very far from the temple. Oxygen cans are available at the hotel which I purchased for my parents for the night as a precaution to Altitude sickness. This is recommended as it isn't uncommon to get headaches due to low Oxygen levels. There are souvenir shops when you walk to the road outside the hotel. If it gets too cold in the night then the hotel also has an option of an extra heater for a nominal extra cost which one can avail.

Cons:

The hotel is situated in a downward steep slope and doesn't have a proper road. The gravel and incline makes it difficult to reach the main road. Something the hotel needs to address asap.

There are no ground floor rooms. All rooms start from 1st floor. If you are traveling with senior citizens then something to consider.

The hotel staff provides only 1 towel for 3 guests. We requested few times but staff was not helpful on this regard.

Overall, a very good hotel and an enjoyable stay
Pros:

We stayed for one night and, if we visit Muktinath in the future, will cosider staying there again. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the restauraut, although a little expensive by Nepal standards, serves good food and generous portions. Similarly, the (included) breakfast was very good. The room was compact and there was limited storage but we liked the underfloor heating, which was an excellent feature, the bed was confortable, and there was a good supply of hot water. There was also a very pleasant area to sit and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee. The hotel is centrally located in the town and a 30 minute walk from the Temple.

Cons:

Although there are two ways into the hotel, access from th main road is down a short, steep gravelly slope. This might be an issue for the elderly or less agile, who, like we did, arrive on foot. The power went off at 10.00 p.m. and did not come back on until 6.00 a.m. It is important guests are warned in advance ithis might happen! There was an emergency ceiling light but it was very bright. Bearing in mind getting up in the dark in an unfamilar hotel room can be danagerous, I think it would be better if the emergency ceiling light were changed to lower power that provides sufficient light but does not disturb sleep.
