Raniban Retreat

Raniban retreat is a beautiful place to stay. Everything was so clean and well organised. The view from the room was incredible. The food was delicious and healthy. The staff delivered unbelievable service, from organising room decoration and a birthday cake for my partner, to accommodating allergies.

Everything was amazing best place ever!

One of my favorite places I have ever stayed! Amazing location, views, staff, food, and I could go on and on. Best hotel experience I could imagine and can’t wait to go back

We enjoyed this little retreat. We were lucky on the weather and the mountains were SPECTACULAR for our 2 day visit. But, we also enjoyed the lovely gardens around Raniban. We did have them arrange transportation back and forth to the hotel because of the bumpy last bit of road.

Too many words to write. Just perfect to unwind.

What a find! Please understand, this hotel is NOT close to the lake or shopping, at the top of the mountain on a windy climb up, then on another very rough road which you would never even notice...which is what makes it so incredible! Fantastic staff, impeccably clean, unbelievable views of the Annapurna and the MachuPuchre ranges from the mezanine, rooftop and my hot tub suite (especially at sunrise, you simply HAVE to get up to witness this). There was no better choice to decompress after a six day trek! Will never stay anywhere else on my next visit. Five stars!

Access to the property was unpaved bumpy road for part of the way. Property is away from main town of Pokhara which is nice if looking for a quiet place although some of the guests were rather noisy.

A place made in heaven. My friend and i were greeted by a smiling face welcoming us to the resort as soon as we got there from the airport. He grabbed our luggage and directed us towards the reception area. You have to climb the stairs while you see the beautiful himalayas, the greenery the beauty of nepal. The reception area was nice and cozy and we were welcomed with so much love and affection in the voices of the staff. I asked for the best view room and they gave me the best. Room was very spacious, clean, hot/cold water with rainshower in the bathrooom. Bed was comfy and the balcony had seating with the view of shiv mandir and phewa lake. The hospitality of this resort is something you wont forget. The chef who made breakfast and all our meals was so amazing. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. My luggage was lost by the airline so the hotel staff helped me by taking me shopping to find clothes and basic essentials. I am so grateful for every staff member there because they guided me through my adventures in pokhra and even went with us at times making sure im safe. Helped take pics and showed me around on ky request. The walk around the resort is magical. You will forget all your stress and lifes issues while sipping masala chai from any place around the reaort while overlooking the beautiful nepal. Friendly people who go above and beyond for their guests. I will definitely go again. Inwas there for a week and loved mg stay. I will never forget the hospitality. Thank u

Wonderful place with amazing staff. View of the mountains was amazing and the infinity pool made for great photography. Totally recommend this place.

Quiet, nice place, good view and very helpful staff.

The most incredible place with great views and amazing staff. The food is also delicious.

This place is very beautiful. Situated on top of the hill next to a cool Buddhist stupa and a big Shiva statue on the top of the mountain. The jacuzzi on the balcony is wonderful! Amazing location. Great staff. Good food. View not too great because of the smoke covering all of Nepal right now.

I loved this property and in the right season it would have the most amazing views. Unfortunately we were there during the wildfires, so we only were able to see the lake. Still beuatiful and reasonably priced with delicious food and service.

Improve wifi please. I couldnt even contact my family members.

This hotel has the most amazing views. Its well worth waking early to see the sun light up the Annapurna mountains. And the night view of Pokhara and the lake is pretty nice. All the staff were lovely.

とても眺めが良く素敵なところでした

部屋からの眺めが最高です。湖の向こう側にヒマラヤが大きく見えます。スタッフも親切で気が利いています。レストランは、野菜カレーがおいしかった。

The view and the confort are perfect.

Amazing views, incredible hospitality from staff

Great place, but the road is difficult to get through. Ask Raniban to pick you up or drop off, as local taxis can't go to the place itself. It's a little remote, but the morning view is amazing.the $12 fee makes sense for the trip, they aren't ripping you off.
