This delightful hotel feels like a country retreat, despite being smack in the middle of Budhanilkantha. The tidy but rather cosy standard rooms and the much smarter super-deluxe rooms are surrounded by gardens and there’s a lovely pool (possibly the best in Kathmandu Valley). The hotel also offers spa treatments and activities, including bird-spotting tours to Shivapuri Nagarjun National Park.
