I took the cable car to Sarankot, it was a great experience. I had the carriage all to myself. I must say the staff were wonderful.. From the driver who picked me up at my hotel to the ticket staff, the boarding staff and exit staff I would recommend this to everyone going to Sarankot.
I stayed at The high Ground Hotel, it was basic, cheap (£12.00 per night) which included breakfast
My room was excellent and I had a nice view of lakeside from my small balcony
The room and private bathroom was was spotlessly clean.
The staff were wonderful, so helpful and very attentive.
Dinner was great, I tried sadako for the first time, I really enjoyed it after the initial shock of how spicy it was.
The only downside was the weather. It was very misty, so I didn't see the Annapurna Mountains at sunset. The morning was also misty however I did see the mountain a, even if it wasn't clear.
Wonderful hotel in the picturesque city of Pokhara. Staff here were wonderful. The location is one of the main appeals, being located right in the middle of the action.
Ratio budget/quality is high . The owner is very friendly and helpful. Just some noisy environment because of school in next building, bus garage, construction, neighbours, etc.
I had a great stay at this hostel in Pokhara, perfectly located right by the lake. The common area is spacious and уютная, making it easy to relax or meet other travelers. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the breakfasts were fresh and delicious… I’d definitely stay here again!
This hotel has a certain rustic appeal to it. It's cozy, and I have to admit, the service was fantastic. The hotel was kind enough to let me check in super early in the morning, free of charge, which I really appreciated. It is located in Lakeside, which is the major tourist section of Pokhara. The location is quite good.
My main issues are with how clean it was and the noise. I always like to do a quick bed bug check, and the mattress was filthy. All of the sheets and towels were frayed and old. Bugs frequently came in and out of the room. The toilet was combined with a shower. And you can hear literally everything.
So if you want a cheap and charming rustic place to stay, this might be it. But it's definitely not quiet or clean.
The room is very minimalist. I like it very much. The water pressure is very strong. The bathroom is compact. The owner, a woman and a man, are very kind and helpful. I asked to pay 500 Nepalese rupees per person to take a shower before leaving in the evening after checking out. You can also store your luggage for free for 30 days. I will stay again.
I stayed alone in a Standard Double Room and found it very comfortable. The room was clean and had a calm, relaxing atmosphere, making it more than comfortable enough for a solo stay. The bed was spacious, allowing for a good night’s rest.
The shower and Wi-Fi worked well without any issues, so there were no inconveniences during the stay. The surrounding environment was pleasant, and it was easy to relax and enjoy a peaceful stay.
The staff were also polite and kind, which made my friend feel safe and comfortable even while staying alone. Considering the price, the overall quality of the hotel was very high, and it is a great choice for solo travelers.
Hotel was average . Amenities were there but not that upto mark . It was an old fashioned hotel .
Coming to positive points :- located in main area of pokhra(near lakeside) . Everything is just a minute away . The other plus is the food of restaurant (hotel portland) . It was a bit on pricier side but very tasty .
An excellently located guest house. Just off the main road in central Lakeside yet so calm and peaceful. Quite unbelievable really. Beautiful gardens, spacious rooms and 2 min walk to the best section of the lake in this area.
Pratigya, one of the owners, helped me decide what trekking route to take and recommended some cool extra sections that turned out to be big highlights for me. She helped, advised and booked everything from buses, permits, taxis and masseuses and made sure I had her number for in case I ran into problems on my trek. As a solo female traveler this was extremely comforting. When I come back to do one of the treks that can only be done with a guide I will be contacting her and her husband.
I highly recommend Yeti guest house and especially the owners / hosts.
Very Good

AAnonymous UserThe hotel is within walking distance to Phewa Lake, and there are many small shops nearby to browse. They offer umbrellas for rent at the front desk on rainy days. The laundry service is paid and outsourced. There seemed to be a communication breakdown among the front desk staff, as I had to go up and down multiple times. The second time I used the wash and dry service, some of my clothes got mixed up with another guest's. That guest had a very thick, waterproof jacket, which resulted in my clothes not being fully dried.
SSofia_PoeThe hotel is one kilometre away from the Tourist bus stop. It's also around 15 minutes away from the lake if you go on foot. The location is pretty convenient.
The room ia well-equipped and has a table, two chairs, a TV set, a kettle, an AC, bottled water, and tea. It also has hot (not just warm) water, which was my first time to see in Nepal 😅 I had a nice breakfast, even prepacked one on the day I was leaving too early to have it in.
The main drawback for me was roosters waking each other up starting from 3 am somewhere nearby. Other than that, great indeed.

VVicky59This family run hotel was a great find for relaxing a few days after our trek. It is easy walking distance to the lakeside but far enough away that you don't hear the nightclubs when you want to sleep at night. The beds are comfortable and the room is well designed. There are many thoughtful touches: the table attached to the wall by the door let's you have luggage underneath, the fridge is for you to use and not crammed full of mini bar stuff, there is even a beer mug provided. The full hot breakfast has eggs, chicken sausage, potatoes, toast, fresh fruit, juice, and coffee, we were plenty well fed. You can choose to sit out in the garden area for breakfast if you like. The owner and his family were very friendly and helpful with the owner speaking really good English.

GGuest UserThe hotel is in a good location. From the balcony, you can see the snow-capped mountains, Fishtail Peak and Anna Peak in the distance. Compared with the overall environment of the hotel, the price is good value for money in Pokhara.
The biggest problem is the hot water in the room. The hot water is not hot. I didn't take a shower during the two nights I stayed.
I communicated with the waiter many times. The waiter's attitude was very patient and kind, but it didn't solve the problem. In their concept, this kind of lukewarm water is hot water.
YYuna2576We really enjoyed our time at this hotel. The location right by the lake is perfect, and waking up to the view of the water and mountains was a treat. The staff were wonderfully helpful and kind throughout our stay. When we asked if we could have chairs for the balcony to enjoy the view better, they provided them away without any hesitation. They were also always happy to help with information about the area and any questions we had.
If you want a well located place with great views and genuinely helpful staff, this is it. We really loved our time here. 🩷
