A very special stay with the most welcoming, helpful staff. The food is delicious (particularly impressive when cooked during full monsoon storms and blackouts), the views are out of this world and the level of service is exceptional. Can't recommend this place enough!! As others mentioned, recommend asking the retreat to book your taxis for you - the last little bit of road isn't paved so it makes it easier them explaining to taxi drivers and calling them to check they're on their way etc. They're more than happy to help with this

This hotel is at the top of a hill that overlooks Pokhara. The property is gorgeous with butterflies and birds and so many flowers. It is the perfect place to get far from the madding crowd for quiet and reflection. The pool was great for cooling off. It is extremely quiet. The staff were always eager to assist in anyway to make your stay as great as possible. I was worried the food would be bad based on other reviews but i thought the food on demand was good and reasonably priced. Felt extremely safe to stay here as a solo woman traveler and overall I would highly recommend this stay.
The location is both a blessing and a curse. To get to Raniban Retreat, you must go up a very steep and curvy road with a lot of blind spots. If you want to go to Pokhara central to get a massage or shop, it is certainly an endeavor. Taking the taxi back to the retreat at night was one of the scariest things I’ve done as the road is challenging and there is very little light. The food is overall ok, but I think the breakfast buffet was quite disappointing, overall stale, and could be much improved. WiFi is a little spotty in the rooms and the electricity was a little weird, sometimes my things would charge other times not.

Raniban Retreat was the perfect place for us to stay after our long hike. The facilities are great, with amazing rooms and great food in the restaurant. Unfortunately we were very ill during our stay due to the hike and the staff looked after us very well. We really appreciate the efforts of the staff to make sure our stay was comfortable.

Staff were amazing. So helpful. And good natured. The location is great but we had low clouds so didn’t get the amazing views. That’s mountains for you. We did some nice short hikes around the tops. Our room was modern and spacious.
Not much. Perhaps the restaurant is a little tired and small menu. The spa was closed when we were there sadly.

The staff was absolutely amazing. The place offers a nice view of downtown Pokhara and probably the mountain on clear day, witch i was not able to see because of clouds. Bed was confortable and bathroom is of a good size with separate shower, hot water is available.
The room as no warm touch to it. No table light for smooth atmosphere at night, only ceiling spotlights and no on off button accessible from bed. No place to lay your luggage. You can use the big cupboard, but that men's to take all your close out. Otherwise you need to let your suitcase on the floor and it looks like a mess. The room and hotel could use better decor to make it feel more like Nepali warm atmosphere. I had the room with jacuzzi. I was expecting a lot better for the price. The jacuzzi is very small, I was not able to lay fully down ( I am 6 feets) with made it less relaxing. It takes forever to fill and by the time it gets full the water in the tub is cold. I had to use a basket to fill it up using the bathroom shower, witch was very annoying. The jets are barely working and at one point in the night, after maybe 30 mins there was no more hot water to refill the bath.i had to go to the bathroom with the basket to get hot water. Terrible experience. That been said, if it was working properly the view from the tub at night over the city is absolutely amazing. Just too bad the accommodation is lacking in that way. The food was average, expensive and tasteless for 3 out of 5 meals that was taken. I chose that place for the retreat as I wanted to unwind and relax, no noise from the city. There was no massage available, no spa services and there is a lot of road noise. At night you can also ear the city music from the room i was in. For me it was nothing like a Retreat. I unfortunately did not appreciate my time there and I moved out sooner then expected.

Very Poor
Insecure as the staff tends to pick through the doors and windows at night.
No privacy at all. One of the staff is sick in mind.

I had an incredible stay at Raniban Retreat in Pokhara! The views from the property are absolutely stunning, offering a breathtaking panorama of the surrounding mountains. The food was excellent, with a variety of delicious options that catered to all tastes. What truly stood out, though, was the exceptional staff—they went above and beyond to make sure I felt welcomed and comfortable throughout my stay. Their warm hospitality made the experience even more memorable. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with amazing views and top-notch service, I highly recommend Raniban Retreat!
The gravel road leading to the property is a little scary, many tourists companies and drivers do not want to drive there. Though, this is not the fault of the hotel. It is the nature of being high up in the mountains.

Felt like staying above clouds.With complete 180 degree view of all Snow Peak Mountains with Lake ; City and Airport. Excellent Property .You don't need to visit Sarangkot for Sunrise .The Lake View Cottage or hotel deck gives exactly same view.
Need more options for Breakfast. They had standard same menu everyday .
