Hotels near Pokhara Airport - PKR, Pokhara

Pokhara is also an English speaking location. there were many cafes, accommodations, and night clubs amidst the souvenirs shops. and i must say, the local are genuinely so friendly and helpful without being pushy at all. this place has lots of potential as a tourist spot to relax and perhaps grow into a yoga hub.

Great, chilled out vibe at Lakeside. A great place to prepare for or relax from a trek. Wonderful contrast to Kathmandu. Roadhouse Pizza is incredible and there is a Spanish restaurant at the Disneyland (really) end of Lakeside that does simply wonderful food.

Vibrant city - great boat trip to the Stupa, with a 1 hour steep climb rewarded with great views. Recommend Camelia Cafe for gentle relaxing vibe, good food and great service. Boomerang cafe has lovely garden seating with views of the lake, and Nepali traditional dancing at night. Try to get to a sunrise viewpoint about 30 mins taxi ride above the city.

I had four days there and used the time to hike up to hilltop temples and do some kayaking on the lake. The south side of the lake is much quieter and pleasant walking in the shade of the trees. I was shocked at the amount of litter on the lakeside path by Pokhara. It’s no worse than anywhere else in Nepal but seemed such a shame at an attractive holiday place next to a watercourse. I wish I had taken a bag and collected litter for half hour a day, odd as it would have looked.

Pokhara is a great place to visit. The place is much cleaner than kathmandu. The scenery of the place is just breathtaking. I liked the lakes including phewa lake and also the mountains. As a muslim I looked for halal restaurants which was not difficult to find. It took about eight & half hours to reach pokhara from kathmandu. Yet, the journey was not tiring coz I enjoyed the sceneries of the way to pokhara. I stayed at hotel Grand Holiday which is in peaceful street. The street is indeed peaceful. There was absolute tranquility around the place which I liked very much. I will always long to be in Pokhara again.

The views of the Annapurna mountain range are incredible. The World Peace Pagoda and Pumdikot Shiva Statue offer amazing views over Pokhara, the only negative about both these locations is peoples complete lack of respect with garbage - so many people just chucking bottles and sweets wrappers to the side of the footpaths. Pokhara is a good starting point for hiking or if you want an easier view of the mountains the microlight and plane flights are a great (but quite pricey) option!
