Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge

This is perhaps the best location in Pokhara with delightful staff, with a historical perspective, as it was declared open by Edmund Hillary in 1998. But the building badly requires refurbishment and a much improved cleaning regime under better management and supervision. The bathrooms especially was badly stained with soap and dirt marks in the shower area. We travel every month and for the first time we encountered a situation where a hotel that describes itself as 5 star refuses to do socks and undergarment laundry. They explained that they don't have a washing machine and the laundry is done by hand. Multiple descriptions on their web site are inaccurate and misleading. There is no "indoor Pool", no "in room safe", "Fitness centre" etc . We experienced several power cuts during day and night and was unable to use my CPAP machine and as a result and was up untill 3am. We were told they are unable to operate generator after 10pm because it disturbs the villagers.

We stayed 2 nights at this very special hotel and can highly recommend it. The architecture of the central lodge and separate cottage style rooms is beautiful and in keeping with the surroundings. The food we enjoyed there was the best we experienced in Nepal - all homecooked and lots of it home grown. Particularly delicious were the soups and particularly welcome were the salads! Best of all though were the attentive and most helpful staff. We would single out Jhalak, the manager, and also Hari, who took us on 2 excellent guided walks to the surrounding villages, pointing out birds, crops and giving us a real insight into the lives and culture of the villagers there. Hari also suggested we bring forward our flight time and made the call himself to a friend on the check-in desk to make this super easy for us. I suspect if we hadn't made this change we would most likely not have made it back to Kathmandu that day so thankyou Hari!.

Dear Team of Tiger Mountain Pokhara, Thank you very much for your kind hospitality. Me and my family had a wonderful time at your property, especially kids who really enjoyed the different birds and butterflies. Best property in Pokhara with amazing view of the Himalayas. With gratitude,

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge was beautiful! The views were immaculate that cannot be seen anywhere else. The rooms were well kept and nice. It was a little like camping, but in the best way possible! The staff were incredible and very attentive. The food was wonderful and fresh too! Overall, a great stay!

Well i was with my friend and we ordered coffee. We sat outside the coffee was terrible. I was laying on the sofa and was constantly been watched(give me space) later was told not to lay on the sofa ok that's fine But then when we were taking pictures one of the employee was rude. Later i moved to pay the bills they didn't had qr nor online payment nothing Not so good place very bad

Such a beautiful place to stay! Warmly welcomed by Hari after a very bumpy road trip from Kathmandu. Tiger Mountain has clean and comfortable cottages - all discreetly nestled in the well tended grounds. The flora and fauna was abundant. The tranquility so welcome after the hustle and bustle of the city. The views of the Himalayas on a clear day were stunning. The service from all staff was consistently excellent. And the food of the highest quality. Lots of ingredients locally sourced from nearby villages or grown in the grounds. (The toffee and banana pudding and the ginger ice cream were absolutely delicious!) The Lodge offers guided walks of various lengths and for different abilities. Some FOC, some payable. We opted for the village walk, which was excellent and our guide was so knowledgeable about everything we saw. He really is passionate about his subject and was so interesting to walk with. We were very impressed! Tiger Mountain strives to be a sustainable Lodge with good working conditions and rewards for staff which is commendable and hopefully will encourage more travellers to stay. We throughly recommend it.
