Traveller Reviews

Special hotel with flair

The original flair of the area has definitely been preserved and makes this Herritage hotel a special experience. If you have a problem with small rooms and older beds, you will certainly not like it so much. I, on the other hand, like it a lot. The windows have no windows and face the pedestrian zone. So you can hear the voices and music of the restaurants. But there are shutters to close. The staff is very friendly and helpful. There is a beautiful terrace with valley views.

Historic Gem

We only stayed one night here visiting the charming and scenic Bandipur. The hotel itself is simple and the rooms are quite basic but it has a real sense of history given the age of the building. The owner was very really friendly and the overall service was exceptional. Dinner al fresco in the terrace was a real highlight of our holiday. The food was superb and the romantic ambience unsurpassed. A really great experience.

Beautiful Traditional Hotel & Delicious Food

Guan Ghar is an absolutely stunning hotel, built in traditional Nepali style. The views from our window were unbelievable. Nitu and the staff were super friendly and a lot of fun, and the food was the best we’d tasted in Nepal. Don’t miss the Sikarni! There’s lots to see around Bandipur, its a beautiful village - very clean and calming. Would highly recommend, we’re already planning a return to Guan Ghar next year.
