Club Himalaya Resort

Top choice in Nagarkot


This well-designed mountain lodge revolves around a huge circular glass room encompassing reception, a nifty heated pool and an able restaurant with an Indian/Chinese/continental menu. There's also an adjoining bar and dance floor with a rock-and-roll theme. But you came for the views, which are some of the best in Nagarkot.

Whether on the public terraces or the balconied rooms, this is an excellent place to hang out as either a guest or a visitor. Ten wheelchair-accessible rooms also offer a rare welcome for travellers with disabilities. Note that the economy rooms have no views, whereas the standard and deluxe do. Otherwise none of them will disappoint.
