Family feel hotel!
Pros:

It was a very friendly, family feel. The owner took me to the hospital when I was unwell and checked to make sure everything was okay. The food was good, the rooms were clean and had mosquito nets (not that they were needed) and they organised the safari very easily for us

Good communication and warm people
Pros:

I had a very pleasant stay at Hotel National Park in Sauraha.

What I appreciated most was the warm family atmosphere of the place. The staff made me feel genuinely welcome and were always kind, helpful and attentive. At the same time, the hotel is run in an effective and efficient way.

They organized all my activities in Chitwan National Park smoothly and reliably, which made my stay very easy and relaxing. Communication was smooth, easy and everything was handled seriously and professionally.

The hotel itself is peaceful, comfortable and well located. I would happily stay there again and recommend it to travelers looking for both a friendly atmosphere and dependable organization.

Cons:

Everything was fine, really :)

Pros:

The staff are amazing, super friendly and helpful, only stayed for two nights but felt like family. The safari was amazing, got to see loads of rhinos, deers and birds. The food was every good and reasonably priced. There was a big storm one morning but the staff delt with it very well. They provided free bus transfers which was also very nice. Very good value for money would deffo recommend.

Had an incredible time at this hotel and in Sauraha. Highly recommend the hotel. Thank you, Suraj!
Pros:

The best part of the stay at the hotel was its owner, Suraj, who is extremely kind and went above and beyond to accommodate me during the stay. He picked me from the tourist bus stop and dropped me on my way back to Kathmandu as well. He even went on to help me retrieve my Apple Watch, which I left at a nearby restaurant. He also helped me book the jungle safari package at a reasonable price for my stay, which is a must-do for anyone who loves wildlife and nature. Overall, the main highlight of my stay was the generosity and kindness of the owner, Suraj, and his wife and their helper, who made me feel at home, and of course, the incredible jungle safari. Thank you, Suraj! I will definitely stay at your place next time in Sauraha.

Cons:

I loved everything except Suraj's dad, who was not inclined to be helpful and even found him a tad rude. I hope this does not turn off other guests at your hotel, Suraj. Also, the dining options could be better. I wish you the best in growing your family business.

Heerlijk verblijf in Chitwan
Pros:

Mijn zoon en ik verbleven hier 2 nachten en hebben een geweldige tijd gehad. We werden hartelijk ontvangen door vader en zoon. We hadden gekozen voor een kamer zonder airco en ondanks de hitte was de plafondventilator voor ons voldoende. Via het hotel een Safari tour gepland voor een hele dag. Vooral het eerste dagdeel met de kanotocht en de wandeling door de jungle is ons het meeste bijgebleven. De 2 vriendelijke gidsen met jaren ervaring vertelden gepassioneerd en vol kennis over het Nationale park. De inbegrepen lunch was echt goed. Vooral de gebakken veggie rijst was vinger likkend goed. In de middag de jeep safari gedaan wat wel lekker was met de wind en schaduw.
De mensen die in het hotel werkzaam zijn hebben ons allemaal een welkom gevoel gegeven. Van de vader en vooral de zoon ( ik ben helaas zijn naam vergeten) die hun best deden ons daar waar nodig te adviseren of vragen te beantwoorden en foto’s te delen tot de vriendelijke en beleefde jongens die er werken. We werden zelfs onverwachts opgehaald bij een stroomstoring op straat met de motor. Dat was echt tof en de volgende dag werden we naar onze bus opstapplaats gebracht. Wie naar Chitwan National park gaat en een toffe ervaring wil hebben qua verblijf zeker hier verblijven. Het avondeten alsook het ontbijt was prima. Dhanyavad 🙏🏼

Pros:

I booked my stay in Chitwan quite last minute and hadn’t planned much in advance, but I was really impressed with how smoothly everything went thanks to the hotel. From the free pickup and drop-off at the bus station to organizing all the activities, everything was very well arranged.

The prices for the tours are very reasonable, and they tailor everything to your preferences. I did a 2-day tour, and it was perfect from start to finish.

The hotel itself is very clean, and the food is good. It’s about a 10-minute walk to the city center, which is actually quite pleasant.

What I appreciated most was the flexibility and the incredibly warm welcome.

Teahouse style stay with excellent safari organisation!
Pros:

We chose to stay at Hotel National Park Sauraha based on its consistently high reviews.

This is a family-run place that runs like clockwork! Efficient, organised, and genuinely welcoming. Nothing ever felt like a problem, and that kind of attitude really makes a difference when you’re travelling. We arrived with no real plans, and everything was effortlessly arranged for us.

The hotel organises a range of safari experiences, which made things incredibly easy. We did a canoe trip, jungle walk, and jeep safari, all with a very experienced guide, we felt safe and well looked after the entire time.

The location is peaceful, with an easy walk to the river and nearby restaurants.

If you’re looking for a relaxed, well organised base for exploring with a friendly, hands-on family, this is a great option. Great for the budget conscious.

Top verblijf met hele leuke activiteiten
Pros:

Het personeel is geweldig en maken dat je een zorgeloos verblijf hebt want ze regelen alles voor je. Je wordt gratis opgehaald van de bushalte en alle safari’s worden vanuit het hotel geregeld. Daarnaast zijn de kamer’s prima en was het bed zeer comfortabel.
