Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge

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!

An absolutely stunning place to stay. Our room was beautiful with everything you could ask for or need including an amazing, unobstructed view of a piece of the Himalayas from a deck area. Our chalet was Tucked away from the main lodge down a meandering pebbled walkway. Very private and secluded. The lodge itself its beautiful with an open fire pit which vents through openings in the roof. Luxurious dining areas and a bar close to the fire makes for cozy nights with fellow guests if you so choose or you can tuck yourselves away in one of the many seated areas. Sweeping views of both the Himalayas and Pokhara (1000 feet below) offered in the seated areas outside the lodge as well. The well trained staff were extremely attentive and always available to cater for your needs. The food was first class catering for all tastes. Also a lovely secluded infinity pool which even in winter is a must for a plunge. Many different activities available including guided walks around the surrounding villages including a photo opportunity under the tree the then Prince Charles sat by during his famous Nepal trek in 1981. Or perhaps a dawn breakfast at a nearby Monastery with fellow guests watching the sun rise. A truly amazing stay.

We were the only guests the first night and were spoilt thoroughly. We were even given a free taster cookery course and were able to look over the shoulder of the lodge's chefs and taste the dishes in between :-) The hotel has wonderful views over Pokhara and the mountains.

I cannot say enough good things about our stay at Tiger Mountain. When coming to Pokhara, we debated about whether to stay by the lake, or several other venues in the hills around Pokhara, but kept coming back to Tiger Mountain and thinking that while it was by far the most expensive, it would be a special experience. When we arrived, we were the only ones staying that night and were given a room with a direct view of Machhapuchhare and the Annapurna range. The views from the main lodge, the pool, the grounds, and our room were priceless. Sunrise and sundown were especially spectacular, and you receive a wake up call and tea or coffee on your porch to take it all in. ||The food was fantastic, and we went with Nepali for lunch and English for dinner, and that was a nice mix, and the meals were delicious and fresh. Drinks by the fire in the evening were also a treat with some light snacks provided. The decor is really lovely in the main lodge and in the rooms with items from Nepal as well as other countries. Our room had a comfortable bed, warm shower, and a space heater as well as hot water bottles under the blankets. We turned the space heater off right before bed and felt sufficiently warm. ||We took several walks with a local guide, ranging from 3-7 hours and saw many views of the mountains, local villages, and so many trees, birds and butterflies. We highly recommend taking advantage of that offer. We did not brave the unheated pool except for dipping our feet in after a long hike, but the views are amazing - from the lodge you can see Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, and Manaslu. We went down to Phewa Lake one afternoon, which was nice, but the refuge of Tiger Mountain is so wonderful we really would not need to leave the area for several days. After the hustle and bustle of Kathmandu, or even the traffic of Pokhara, being in the mountains was the respite we needed. ||The staff are fantastic - we felt very pampered. Many of the staff have been there from the beginning, some of whom helped build the lodge. If you are in Nepal, we highly recommend visiting Tiger Mountain and experiencing a bit of luxurious tranquility and supporting this special regenerative tourism experience.

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.

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge is my favorite place on this planet.|It isn't just the lodge, but also, the natural beauty of the area, and mostly the staff.|They are like family after only six days. So much to do while there including the nature and cultural hikes designed for the individual by Sajan.|I'm already planning my return trip and can't wait to be pampered again.
