Hotel Tourist Residency and Homeland Forest Villa

To know more about a hotel you have to stay long we were on a 4 day long family vacation and looking at the past reviews and a connection we choose this hotel. After a phone call we agreed on a extra bed added as we area quite a big family of 5. After we checked in they told us all the extra bed was occupied it was ok. Later the tv and internet wasn't working and we complained and they told them after a hour long complain they told us that it is not working due to some issues it will be done by tomorrow which never came. Didn't have hot water pot inside the room had to ask which took more than a hour. Food and breakfast also took the same time. Above an hour. Also the drainage use to make dripping sound 24 hour which hampered our sleep. Hope they will look after this matter in near future as in hotel line you cannot give an excuse saying we are sort of staffs.

I only planned to stay here for a few nights, but ended up staying five nights. It's conveniently located only a 10 min walk from lakeside, nestled in the hills above the streets away from the noise and pollution. After staying in many hotels in lakeside area, it was so nice to wake up to the relaxing sounds of birds, insects and wildlife, rather than the sounds of traffic, dogs barking, people shouting ect. There's even some trails behind the hotel if you want to explore some of the local flora and fauna. I stayed in the deluxe room, which was very cosy, with good amenities, good air con and hot water 24/7. The mattress was superb and combined with the relaxing quiet nature of the surroundings, it meant I had a good night's sleep every night and i never needed to use earplugs to help me sleep, unlike most other hotels ive stayed in around lakeside. The owner and the staff were super friendly and helpful and we're always happy to help, offering me some good local travel advice and always making sure I was happy and taken care of. The garden and restaurant areas are a nice place to chill in the evening and grab some food and a cold beer and unwind from a busy day. Overall it was a pleasure to spend time here and i always looked forward to coming back to this place after a busy day to relax and get a good nights sleep. If you want the convenience of being located on lakeside, but don't want all the commotion and noise that goes with it, then I can definitely recommend this place.

Fabulous all around! Beautiful property with friendly & accommodating staff. The owner, Bimal, made us feel like family, so warm & friendly. Just a couple blocks from the hustle & bustle of the main road but so serene with beautiful views. Our room was fabulous with private patio, views, privacy. The dining onsite had a nice menu (yummy food!) and the ambiance was wonderful. Super convenient locations with easy walk (other than the steep hill & stairs at the property, so if you can’t handle walking a block up/downhill) to all the shops, restaurants, and the Lake. So happy we stayed here. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

What a warm reception upon arrival! The owner, Bimal, was very welcoming and gracious, and so proud to tour us thru his property (as he should be, it’s beautiful!). We received a cup of tea upon arrival, toured the grounds, and were given suggestions on where to wander to find fun restaurants for dinner. We also received a nice greeting from Bimal when we booked the room, and even his WhatsApp message was friendly and warm. We love it here!!

The perfect place to come back to after finishing the Manaslu Circuit. The gardens were lovely with a great view of the city and hills. Bimal (the owner) messaged me prior to arrival and his staff were extremely attentive throughout my stay. Would highly recommend.
