Hotels & Accommodation near Pokhara Zoological Park

Lovely hotel with excellent hospitable Nepalese staff. Lunch and Dinner were of a high quality. Only downside (as with all properties along the lake) is that there is a fair amount of noise from singing, people, funfair etc that may delay your sleep. Otherwise would definitely recommend staying there due to the central location and wonderful views of the lake

We stayed for 4 nights and were upgraded to a 4th floor pool view with balcony as apparently we had paid too much through Hotels.com for the garden hut. The room was clean and spacious with a great view of the lake. The staff were all very friendly and special shout out to Samah who was particularly efficient. The evening cover band and dance show was entertaining. Good location too. Only negative was that breakfast plates weren’t cleared away very quickly which encouraged flies and a couple of birds. But overall would definitely recommend.

One-Star Review for Harness Resort: A Terrible Experience I had an incredibly disappointing stay at Harness Resort, which I booked through Expedia for $248 for two nights in their top-tier Deluxe Suite. In addition, I paid around 7,000 Nepali Rupees extra for food and drinks, making this experience even more frustrating. From the moment we arrived, the service was terrible. The resort staff didn’t even know we had booked the Deluxe Suite. The manager had to make a call to confirm our reservation instead of welcoming us properly. The receptionist gave us an unwelcome look, making us feel like we didn’t belong, despite paying for the best room. The resort seemed to cater more to political party gatherings than to regular guests. During our stay, there was a loud and crowded seminar, which ruined the peace and quiet we expected. We were disturbed multiple times by loud knocks around 10 PM, which felt unsafe and scary. The food was another major letdown. I was particularly dissatisfied with their Chicken Shank. The idea of chicken gravy over mashed potatoes and fried rice with old cabbage on top was bizarre and unappetizing. The quality was far below what I expected for the price we paid. On the day of checkout, I asked for the bill, only to be given a copy that still included the room charges, even though I had already paid online. I had to explain this again, highlighting their poor customer service. Despite seeing many good reviews, my experience was awful.
