Pros:

I had such a memorable stay here. The host and their family are incredibly friendly and helpful—on arrival, they welcomed me with a fresh juice, and throughout my stay they were always available to assist, even kindly offering to pick me up at night. The room was exceptionally clean and comfortable, with a cozy indoor temperature, a constant supply of hot water, and, to my delight, a perfect view of the mountains right from the window.

The location is very convenient: it’s on the Damside, with the lake just around the corner, and within walking distance of several attractions to explore, including the World Peace Pagoda and Gupteshwor Mahadev Cave. The host also arranged a trip to Sarangkot, where I experienced the most breathtaking mountain views—an unforgettable highlight of my visit.

Overall, this place offered the perfect combination of warmth, comfort, and accessibility, made my time in Pokhara even more remarkable.

Great value, lovely hosts
Pros:

Lovely hotel, very friendly and helpful hosts, great value. Would definitely stay here again next time I'm in Pokhara.

Cons:

It's in Damside (not Lakeside), so a bit further from main food places, but the flipside is it's quieter and less frantic than being in the centre.

Owners are professionally sincere and friendly.
Pros:

Location is in a side of center which is appropriate for sight seeing tourists. You can enjoy the happening hour of lake side and sleep peacefully back in a room.

Cons:

Lawn and parking space is not enough

Exceptional
Pros:

Clean, quiet and comfortable hotel located at damside (end of lake). About 20-30 minute walk into lakeside tourist hub along eco-trail along lake. Hotel near lots of delicious and cheap local eateries. Owner friendly and super helpful with tours. Family owned and run. Highly recommend.
