Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Pokhara
The primary gateway is Pokhara International Airport (PKR), situated just 3.4 km from the city center, offering the most efficient access via local taxi or the recently launched city shuttle. International travelers typically arrive through Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) in Kathmandu, which is 145.9 km away; reaching Pokhara from here involves either a short domestic flight or a 7-9 hour bus or car journey. Gautam Buddha International Airport (BWA) serves as a distant secondary international link, 95.5 km from Pokhara, requiring a 3-4 hour mountain road transfer or a connecting flight. Bharatpur Airport (BHR), at 72.8 km, acts as a regional hub for smaller domestic flights, while the remote Jomsom Airport (JMO), 69.3 km away, is primarily accessed via rugged 4x4 road transfers through challenging mountain terrain. For optimal travel, prioritize flying directly into PKR if available, as surface travel across the hilly terrain can be significantly longer than the map distance suggests. Always book mountain transport in advance to ensure availability, especially on the Jomsom or Bhairahawa routes.

The hotel's environment is good, next to Lake Fewa, when the weather is good, you can sit in the hotel's pavilion and enjoy the lake view. The hotel is near the end of the lake, close to the landing position of paraglider, a little far from the city of Pokhara, and about half an hour walk to the city, taxi is not very convenient. Hotel facilities are average, near the lake area there are many small mosquitoes at night, but each room is equipped with mosquito repellent.FromUS$51

The entire stay was amazing and beautiful. The location was easy to find and has a wonderful green garden area, the food was wholesome and delicious, all the amenities were present and they even went the extra mile to add on an extra bed. On the last day we checked out at 5am they prepared a nutritious breakfast for us. However, the warm water system seems a bit unsustainable as there isn't a geyser and one needs to wait for the hot water to come through the tap and seems like a wastage of water. All in all, would definitely recommend this place for all the warm staff that run the place!FromUS$31

This is a hotel that I booked before hiking and was satisfied.
Only two reservations in Pokhara.
The above hotel is a good hotel. It's not as gorgeous as a 5 star hotel, but it doesn't have a downside. Reasonable price.
The location is good and the cleanliness is not very clean (compared to Korean hotels), but it is still clean. And warm water comes out well in the bathroom. The staff are also very nice and the communication in English is smooth.FromUS$18

The hotel environment is very beautiful, there is a small garden, and there is a balcony on the first floor where you can sit and drink tea and chat. The price of the SPA experience is much better than that of Mainland China. The service attitude is 2500 rupees (1 yuan to 16 rupees). I hope you can give your guests a little gift.FromUS$66

This hotel's location is absolutely perfect! It's right in the middle of Lakeside Road, making it convenient to get to either end of Phewa Lake. The surrounding area is Pokhara's bustling city center, but because the hotel is set back a few hundred meters, it's completely quiet at night. We checked in the day after our trip to Australian Camp and immediately indulged in a spa treatment at the hotel, which was an excellent experience! The hotel staff were also very attentive and patient, helping us arrange transport and plan our itinerary. The room facilities aren't luxurious, but they're clean and tidy, and absolutely sufficient. This is a fantastic hotel! I'd definitely stay here again if I come back to Pokhara!FromUS$27

The hotel environment is very good, the room is large, there is air conditioning, the hot water in the bath is very good, very close to the lake and the snow mountain. In the room, I saw the fishtail peak and the series of peaks. The boss is very handsome, the people are very good, help to book the gliding. Umbrella discount tickets, enthusiasm, patience. Worth staying.FromUS$15

The hotel is located close to Fewa Lake and there are many restaurants and shops nearby. The only drawback is that there are too many windows and the sound insulation is not very good. It can be disturbed by the noise of passers-by late at night.FromUS$59

The service staff is friendly, the hotel is in a good location, close to the lake. The facilities are old and the rooms are clean. There is a viewing platform and a small infinity pool on the roof, and the view of Lake Fewa is good. The chance to see the snowy mountains in the rainy season is lower because the clouds are thicker.FromUS$45

Очень хороший отель. С балкона вид на горы (см.фото), тихо, можно выспаться на свежем воздухе. Я была в начале ноября и спала без кондиционера с открытым окном, никаких Комаров не было, но на этот случай в номере предусмотрено средство от москитов.
На крыше небольшой бассейн с прекрасным видом, хорошо бы конечно его открывали в 5-6 утра, чтобы можно быдло вступить там рассвет (это пожелание).
Из бассейна можно подняться в СПА на 6 этаж и сделать массаж. Массажистка великолепная. 90 минут массажа стоит примерно 60 долларов, но это очень хороший массаж и атмосфера прекрасная.FromUS$50

Very good hotel, did not bargain 300 rupees from the airport. Keep at the beginning of Fewa Lake. Next to the commercial street, there are goods to eat and sell. A 5-minute walk along the lake is the cruise ship pier, which takes 20 minutes to reach the widest water surface of Fewa Lake. The top of the hotel can clearly see the towering snow-capped mountains. It is generally clear in the morning and is covered by clouds after noon. The hotel has its own car and driver to rent, the price is not compared, but it should be more reliable than the taxi on the street. When we went out, we encountered thunderstorms. The driver was always with us, and the psychological situation was much more practical. Good environment, breakfast, free delivery to the airport.FromUS$63

Absolutely loved the mountain lodge! A must-visit if you're in Nepal. The hospitality was incredible, and the sunsets and sunrises were breathtaking, surrounded by snow-capped mountains. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. They even threw a birthday party for my daughter! For a family of four, the total cost for meals was surprisingly low, equivalent to the price of a single large chicken in China – incredibly good value. Everything about this place deeply touched me. While the room rate was a bit high, it definitely delivered on the emotional value. 👍FromUS$219

This is a very nice hotel...great location, great views, and a kind staff. While the free buffet breakfast is good, it's no where near 5 star... it's more like 3 star. with a very limited selection of food.
I enjoyed Pokhara so much that I decided to stay an extra week, and when I asked about rates booking directly with the hotel, they seemed arrogant and disinterested... saying there was no discount for booking directly with them. So I left and booked another hotel right on the lake , larger room and same buffet breakfast...for much less money. If you want to pay more for less, stay here.FromUS$44
