Reviewed Aug 16, 2026Our stay was absolutely wonderful and exceeded our expectations in every possible way. From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely welcomed and cared for.
The accommodation itself is sensational, surrounded by nature and offering beautiful views over the jungle area. Everything is extremely comfortable: the rooms have excellent air conditioning, the beds are very comfortable, the bathroom is spacious, and the whole property has a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The swimming pool is fantastic and the perfect place to relax after a day of activities.
The food deserves a special mention. Everything we tried was delicious, and the breakfasts were generous, varied and excellent.
However, what truly makes this place exceptional is the people. Salina, Shera and Roshan, together with Mr. Ajit Bikran Rana, the manager, and all the other members of staff, made us feel completely at home. They were always attentive, friendly and willing to do everything possible to make our stay comfortable and to help us with anything we needed. This warm relationship between guests and staff creates a very special atmosphere that is difficult to find elsewhere.
We also loved all the surprises they organised for us. One evening they took us to watch the sunset and prepared a lovely snack for us in a beautiful setting. Another unforgettable moment was the live performance by members of the local Tharu community. That same morning we had visited a Tharu village and learned about their way of life, so it was especially moving and fascinating to see members of the same community performing their traditional dances for us later that evening.
The safari was another highlight of our stay. It was absolutely fabulous. We were lucky enough to see rhinoceroses at an incredible distance — at one point less than one metre away. Our guide was excellent.

The level of attention to detail is remarkable and clearly reflects the personal involvement of Mr. Rana, the manager, whose presence and dedication elevate the entire experience. The team operates at the highest level — professional, discreet, and genuinely attentive throughout.
The safari experience was superb — expertly organized, immersive, and unforgettable. The facilities are top-tier, combining elegance, comfort, and a strong sense of place.
The property is also a true paradise for birdwatchers — during our stay, we spotted more than 100 species, both within the national park and in the surrounding areas of the sanctuary.
The restaurant is equally impressive, offering a refined variety of fresh, high-quality dishes with both local and international influences. One of the evenings featured a traditional dance performance by members of the local indigenous community, which was both authentic and engaging.
After the hustle and bustle of Kathmandu, the property feels like a genuine oasis of tranquility — peaceful, beautifully maintained, and deeply relaxing.
Our only regret is having stayed just two nights. We very much look forward to returning — next time for a longer stay.
If you are considering options in the area, this is a property you can choose with complete confidence.

Reviewed Jan 29, 2026The resort is beautiful, the gardens are well-maintained, the rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated, and all the staff members are lovely, from the first to the last. Except for the manager, Ajid. It's a shame that, being such a high-quality hotel, we had such an unpleasant experience that left a bad taste in our mouths.
We stayed three nights, two full days, as a group of two. The resort organizes excursions to Chitwan National Park. There are two price options: shared excursions with other hotel guests (minimum five people) and private excursions.
On the first day, we booked a shared jeep safari with three other guests arriving at the resort that same day. The price was $60. The other guests were expected to arrive at 12:00 pm. We waited in the reception area for two hours without the manager informing us of anything. Finally, at 2:00 pm, he informed us that the other guests had arrived but had canceled their safari. We discussed our two-day activities with him. The cancellation of our other guests meant we had to book two private tours for a total of $530, which we did. The manager, taking into account the two-hour wait and the change from shared to private safaris, told us he would give us a free one-hour boat trip on the Narayani River. We happily accepted, as our expenses had increased considerably.
However, imagine my surprise when, upon paying the bill for the two safaris, the three nights at the hotel, and meals, which came to $1,143, it included $60 for the boat trip the manager had given us. I was even more shocked when, upon inquiring about the charge, he replied that he had to charge me because the day we were waiting for the other group, who ultimately decided not to come on safari, the resort had had to rent a jeep for us. Listen, I was already paying for the private safari; if they had to rent the jeep, that's their problem, not mine! And in no way does that expense justify them then charging me for the boat trip they had given me as a gift. I probably wouldn't have gone for it if I had known I would have to pay for it. I paid de full bill.
That's not the attitude of a hotel that calls itself luxury, and the manager's behavior doesn't reflect the quality of the establishment.

The staff were nothing short of exceptional. Ajit the manager, safari guides Tulsi and Ashok, and the restaurant team all went above and beyond to make sure my stay was comfortable and memorable.
The safari experience was magical. I saw 15 rhinos, including three mothers with calves. I followed Tulsi’s recommendation to visit the community forest instead of the main park and I’m so glad I did, as other groups returned disappointed.
Tulsi, Ashok, and our driver John were determined to help me spot a tiger, visiting multiple locations and waiting patiently. While we didn’t get lucky this time, seeing so many rhinos more than made up for it.
Thank you for a wonderful stay at Sanctuary Chitwan.
My only small issue was that the location was very far out of the way. The transfer fee offered by the lodge was ridiculous at $70, when I found a taxi in the end for around $25.
Please note, that the remote location iis what makes the place so special! Even on the safari, I saw very few other jeeps.

1. It’ll be better if they played some music at the bar and the restaurant. We often had to eat and drink in complete silence and we could hear conversations from other people which is a little awkward. Might make the ambience better with a little background music.
2. Have someone stationed at the pool to take down orders for drinks and food. Guests often have to walk all the way to the reception/bar to order drinks and food which made the experience a little troublesome.
