La ubicación y el servicio encantador

Las habitaciones son un poco incómodas, y no están muy limpias

Bellissima struttura, molto caratteristica e ben curata, ambiente intimo e d'atmosfera. Personale attento e disponibile. Ottimo anche il ristorante.

Beautiful property in the heart of Bandipur with the most attentive and kind staff

Couple stains on bedsheets and food is expensive (but good) compared to other restaurants

Historical building, great atmosphere

A bit pricey

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt im The Old Inn Bandipur. Die Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und immer engagiert uns mit jeder Angelegenheit weiter zu helfen. Das Zimmer war sehr schön und groß, mit wunderschönem Ausblick in die grüne Berglandschaft. Das Hotel liegt direkt im Herzen der Stadt, sobald man vor die Tür geht, ist man direkt im Geschehen. Im Hotel hat man aber trotzdem seine Ruhe. Das Frühstück hat uns sehr gut gefallen und auch das Abendessen war sehr gut. Die Unterkunft ist seinen Preis auf jeden Fall wert und wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen.

Customer service, stuff's readiness to help, attention to detail

Lack of toiletries

Stayed 2 nights in May with a friend, we had separate rooms. We arrived late, around 8pm, and staff had our dinner prepared and ready to go. We were then told that the rooms in the main building had a hot water problem and we would be moved to the annex building. The annex building is literally less than 1 minute's walk, you can see it from the main building, it's just on the other side of the square. The annex building is also a historical building, lots of charm, beautifully kept. The only down side to the annex building is that it is right above the main temple/ square in the bazaar. It is very, very loud. We arrived during a cultural event with drumming, dancing, and singing. Being one floor above ground level made the noise extra loud. The show did end before 10pm. However, people stand around and talk in the square until late at night. You can hear everything they say. Then, very early, by 6am, people are ringing the bell at the temple; it is very loud. I think if you are not in one of the rooms facing the main square, it might be quieter. The main building is just a little bit away from the square and the eating area and most rooms face away from the main street so it is much quieter. Both rooms (annex building and main building) are comfortable, nicely decorated, good beds and bedding, very clean, lots of lights and charging points. Filtered drinking water is provided. Shower water was hot, pressure was strong, wifi was decent. The shutters on all the windows keep the rooms very dark even in broad daylight. Having the large windows to open and a balcony was very nice. Staff was very attentive and helpful. They let us switch rooms back to the main building the second night when the water heater was fixed. Food was absolutely delicious. The dhal bat set was very, very good. Breakfast was filling and made fresh. Overall a very nice stay.

One of my favourite hotel stays in a long time, and the best I stayed in whilst visiting Nepal! The staff are wonderful, kind and attentive, and the hotel is beautiful and so well maintained. The breakfast, and all the food I tried, was excellent. In particular it was great to have decent coffee served in a French press. The location is perfect and the view from the multiple terraces are so special. The staff helped me arrange a minivan onto Pokhara which I appreciated.

Очень аутентичный маленький отель! Требовать здесь 5* конечно же не стоит, но все очень мило и по домашнему! Встретили, вкусно накормили.

Top Lage mitten in Bandipur!

nichts

Een uniek hotel op een unieke plaats. Je wordt terug in de tijd gekatapulteerd. Zoveel charme, de super vriendelijke bediening en de bijzonder lekkere keuken maken van dit hotel een hartverwarmende plek.

Helemaal niets

Amazing hotel with lots of charm! Perfect location, very friendly staff and delicious food. Highly recommend!

Ein wunderschönes ca. 150 Jahre altes Haus, dekorativ ausgestattet, mit einer Terrase, von der man das Tal überblickt. Sehr aufmerksames, freundliches, hilfsbereites Personal. Der junge Manager macht einenen top Job und unterhält sich gerne mit seinen Gästen. Das Frühstück ist sehr umfangreich, nicht zu schaffen!

Bauartbedingt hat das alte Haus keine verglasten Fenster (das sollte auch so bleiben) und keine Heizung, die Folge bei kühlem Wetter: Mindestens das Duschen ist ungemütlich!

Das Old Inn ist ein sehr charmantes und architektonisch sehr interessant Hotel, allein dafür lohnt sich der Aufenthalt. Doch was das beste ist, Ashilk und sein Team umsorgen die Gäste sehr liebevoll und professionell. Ich habe mich wie Zuhause gefühlt :) Und Nachhaltigkeit wird hier gelebt. Danjabaad!

Authentic Inn

Nothing

Das Hotel ist einzigartig fantastisch und alleine einen Aufenthalt in Bandipur wert!

Ένα υπέροχα αναπαλαιωμένο κτίριο 200 ετών, παλαιό πανδοχείο, σε ένα χωριό που βρίσκεται ψηλά σε σημείο που ήταν κόμβος επικοινωνίας μεταξύ Θιβέτ και Ινδίας, που δεν επιτρέπεται η κυκλοφορία οχημάτων, με εξαιρετική εξυπηρέτηση από το προσωπικό και ιδιαίτερα τον Ashik.

The hotel is historic and keeps the vibes of a traditional nepalese building, this means it's gorgeous and has a lot of quirks and everything seems original or restored from original. I did not have a chance to try the food, but saw other guests eating the breakfast and it seemed up to standard. The location is ideal for a stay in Bandipur, as it cannot get more central. It is located on a purely walkable street, so there is no traffic noise.

Not an issue the hotel should/could change, but the doorways and rooms are quite short for anyone who might consider themselves tall. The hotel however accomodates and has padding on doorways in higher traffic areas which saved my head a couple times in my short stay.

Prachtig authentiek hotel, het lijkt wel een sprookje. Ontbijt en diner op het terras met mooi uitzicht. Super vriendelijk personeel!

Everything. It is historic, charming, ionically Nepalese. Don’t hesitate, just go ahead and book it. You won’t be disappointed.

That I could not stay there longer

Afwerking

Can't rate highly enough, perfect place to stay if in Bandpiur as just like stepping back in time. Love all of the dark wood interiors, small doors to rooms, old lamps used for lighting and views over the valley. My room was spacious and clean and felt very cosy in the evening. Right on the bazaar so ideal for exploring the town and the staff were so helpful.

早餐比较好。员工服务较好。

洗澡有些冷。

I think it’s the most beautiful hotel in Bandipur. The team is extremely professional, the location is excellent, the breakfast is delicious, and the atmosphere of the rooms is absolutely lovely.

Midden in de straat, leuke plek.

Geen verwarming erg koud.

Excellent management and staff. Beautiful location and unique traditional inn. Lovely restaurant terraces

Noise from the street can be a problem.

Le old inn est incontournable à Bandipur pour qui souhaite loger dans un hôtel héritage de charme en plein cœur du village. Le décor est pittoresque, la vue, le personnel très attentif. La chambre deluxe possède un balcon fleuri dominant la rue. Elle est spacieuse et le lit très confortable.

L’inconvénient majeur est le bruit et le froid si le voyage a lieu en hiver. Le matelas est chauffant ce qui est appréciable mais les courants d’air rendent le séjour peu agréable. La salle de bain est très froide. Anorak de rigueur pour les petits déjeuners et les dîners malgré les 20 degrés dans la journée. En été l’expérience doit être agréable. Les WE la rue est très animée, sonore. Chiens, temple, passants… le sommeil est difficile à trouver dans ce bel endroit

Hotel histórico en plena calle principal de Bandipur. Las vistas de la habitación y la zona de cena/desayuno son increíbles. Personal amable. Desayuno abundante, variado y muy rico. La comida del restaurante es muy buena también. Las habitaciones son muy particulares, una linda experiencia.

No pudimos pagar con tarjeta de crédito por un problema con posnet.

Staying at The Old Inn was like going back in time, a really amazing experience! Our bed was comfortable and they provided a heated blancket which warmed us up before sleeping. A nice extra touch! We had a gorgeous view on rice terraces and the big mountains from our balcony. The hotel is on the main street so all the places to see and visit in Bandipur are in easy walking distance. We walked up to the sunset point and the views were incredible! Breakfast was plenty and delicious :) If you want a unique experience in Bandipur, book this hotel.

מלון מאד מיוחד ואותנטי במרכז הכפר.יחס נעים ומזמין.ניתן להקפיד יותר על ניקיון.

A beautifully restored heritage property in the best location in Bandipur. Lovely terrace at the front with a bar and amazing rooftop with fabulous views. Staff will bring up drinks for you whilst you enjoy the sunset.

A beautifully preserved property boasting lots of charm. The food was excellent (one of the best Dhal Bhat we’ve had in Nepal) and the staff were super friendly and accommodating.

Nothing!

Correct

Las vistas y ubicación

Al ser una construccion newari de más de 100años, hay que ir con cuidado si eres alto de no darte con la cabeza al cruzar las puertas.

Gute Lage in der Stadtmitte, alles zu Fuß erreichbar. Service beim Frühstück sehr nett.

Zimmer riechen extrem muffig. Toilette geht gar nicht, Deckel extrem abgenutzt!

Beautiful inside and out. Ample delicious food, attentive staff. Pricey for Nepal (and not cheap even for the States; no regrets.

- Super vriendelijk en attent personeel! - Prachtig traditioneel hotel; - Heerlijk eten; - Fantastisch gelegen in de hoofdstraat met uitzicht op de bergen. Oase van rust na het hectische Kathmandu. We hebben genoten!

I loved the old Architecture of the Inn it is quite enchanting. It felt like you were living in another era. The terrace garden lovely for sitting, enjoying the day and having breakfast snd dinner. The staff were very thoughtful and friendly. It felt like home away from home. We enjoyed many breakfasts and meals and especially enjoyed the buckwheat roti and porridge with nuts.

I liked everything.

Beautiful historic hotel, with a lot of charm...very authentic Nepalese decor . Great mountain views. Comfortable and clean rooms. Nice fresh breakfast. The best hotel in Bandipur.

Everything was great

I loved the authentic charm and ambiance. The host and staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was just as advertised and I enjoyed it. The food was top notch. The area was quiet and I had a great view. I’m definitely looking forward to coming back soon!

Wonderful architecture. Very attentfull staff. Great food. Nice view over the mountains Best location.

Mi è piaciuta la posizione, lo staff e l’hotel in generale, perché era molto originale e diverso dai soliti hotel

Nulla

Muy buena localización, hotel precioso , muy buena comida y el personal super atento. Muy buen sitio para desconectar un par de dias.

Nada

Bellissima atmosfera in un antico edificio rurale newari, splendido giardino affacciato sulla valle. Camere molto piccole ma giustamente si sono rispettati i volumi originari. Staff molto gentile.

Delusione dalla cucina, pochi piatti tipici e non ma di mediocre fattura. Anche la colazione lascia a desiderare, in particolare il pancake crudo e molliccio che non si riesce a mangiare. Peccato!

So much charm! Beautiful building and patios…plants, flowers, butterflies!! I loved the balcony attached to my room! We loved meals out on the back patio area… with occasional views of snow capped peaks. The food was AMAZING! The staff were so kind and friendly!

It was a tad dark in my beautiful room.

L'emplacement. À même le petit village de Bantipur. La rusticité et la beauté de l'hôtel en général. La magnifique vue sur les montagnes derrière l'hôtel. Le personnel ainsi que la nourriture qui est très bonne.

C'est trop cher pour la qualité d'hébergement et les services qui y sont offerts. Quoi que ce n'est pas la faute de l'hôtel, il y a des pannes de courant plusieurs fois par jour ce qui fait en sorte que le ventilateur cesse de fonctionner regulierement et la chaleur devient presque insupportable dans la chambre. Les taies d'oreiller ainsi que les draps sont tachés par endroits. Les serviettes offertes sont vieilles et rugueuses. De plus, nous avons eu droit à la visite d'une souris dans notre chambre... Il faut s'attendre à certaines de ces choses quand on visite le Népal rural, mais pas à ce prix...

Hotel Old Inn is a very nice place, where the style of old Newari houses has been very well preserved. There are of course some drawbacks to this deliberate choice, but which were not a problem to us: rooms are not very large, they are a bit dark, and equipment is limited (no TV set for example). But again, we like and support this choice. The staff is nice and efficient. Having breakfast on the terrace facing the mountains is wonderful, and we also had a very nice (but small) balcony with Himalaya view adjacent to our room. Be aware that the hotel is on Bandipur bazaar, which is a pedestrian-only area. We had heavy luggage, but our driver called the hotel and hotel staff came to help us carry our luggage to hotel while we were walking. And they also helped us in the same way when we departed Bandipur.

Nothing

Fantastic period property with quirky communal spaces, corridors, low beams and old furniture. Rooms were very comfortable whilst not detracting from the style. Don’t expect modern, it’s like a step back in time. Hotel staff were amazing - especially all the guys at breakfast and dinner, who were highly attentive and friendly. Always happy to help and look after us. I took a day hike using the hotel guide, which was lovely. Recommended stay! Oh and of course the amazing terrace views! How could they not be mentioned - stunning on a clear day.

Be careful not to hit your head on all the low beams! It’s is marked clearly but it’s so quirky and old. A great property with lots of charm.

I absolutely loved the property, beautiful room, clean and light with terrace door open, albeit a little more lighting at night could help! Breakfast was monstrous, Fruit, yoghurt and then main to your choice, I can eat but I struggled, fabulous! The location right in the centre of town…. Perfect

Really great hotel

Nothing

Such a beautiful and sympathetically restored building, definitely the most characterful place we stayed in Nepal! It’s right in the heart of Bandipur, which is a small but charming town, and sitting facing the street is the perfect spot for people-watching. We loved all the decorative touches in the property as well, like statues and paintings and plants.

It’s a very charming hotel with very friendly staff. The location is great as it is right in the middle of the main pedestrian street. Also the food is nice.

The staff make this place with their incredible service and despite it being a very touristy area they manage to keep it personal at all times and a unique experience

Other guests who did not appreciate where they were and were rude

Incredibly beautiful historic building, an amazing stay with impeccable service and friendly staff

Loved the whole package. The staff, locality, facilities loved it all. The staff go beyond expectations

Loved it all

The food was excellent and the staff were very friendly and always happy to give tourist advice. The location is incredible; we were really surprised by Bandipur! We had an amazing room with a mountain view which we shall never forget. The hotel staff also provided us with packed lunches for a trek, which was very thoughtful as the refreshments were very much needed on a hot day!

We were very happy with our stay; however we would have liked shampoo and body wash. These could be provided in refillable containers to be eco-friendly as we understand the need to reduce plastic.

Super charming hotel with magical mountain views. One of the nicest hotels we stayed in in Nepal - beautifully decorated - the ancient building an charm was well preserved. We had a wonderful birthday celebration with delicious food and mountain views. Definitely a place to go to in Bandipur.

Just know that the ancient building means steep stairs and low ceilings. But that adds to the charm

Excellent service, beautiful old building, good breakfast

Only small things- slippers provided were in-between-toes flip flops which I couldn’t wear, no tissues in the room, no shampoo.

Staff most helpful

excellent location, brilliant service and great food. -

The only minor issue was with a leaking tap in the bathroom, but we were only there one night, I am sure the staff would have fixed it if we stayed longer

Good central location full of charm

Usual noisy dogs at night

Very cosy and with lots of charm, this is a great place to stay a couple of days.

A very quaint and beautiful old building right in the heart of town. They have done a wonderful job of creating a comfortable hotel in an historic structure. The restaurant/breakfast area has gorgeous views looking towards the mountains.

- good location - very clean - vintage rooms - friendly staff

- wifi not working in the room - food took a lot of time to arrive

We loved the character and charm of the property. Exceptional views and very friendly and helpful staff.

As our room overlooked the dining terrace, sometimes the noise was too much.

We stayed 2 nights and the stay was really great. We were very lucky as we were able to see the mountains from the room. The hote is very characteristic and very beautiful. The family who mange the hotel is very very nice and supportive. I highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing stay in Bandipur.

unique quiet accomodation

Excellent property in a great location. Helpful staff, legendary Nepali hospitality.

The check out process was a bit lengthy, but I believe that this was due more to Booking.com than to the hotel. My booking info said that the hotel had already charged my credit card, but the hotel had not. This is not the first time that it happens (for example, it also happened at Sofitel Istanbul and Raffles Jakarta). Maybe Booking.com needs to streamline how you share this info and do it in a more clear way. The hotel staff was apologetic and kind and dealt with this in the most efficient manner possible.

Really unique and special place! Can definitely recommend.

Mind your head, watch your step :)

the staff were so helpful and friendly the food delicious and the building amazing to stay in : having a balcony was great for sitting and people watching couldnt have bettered these aspects

the internet was poor and the standard of cleanliness average -not what we expected given the price charged

We enjoyed our stay at Old Inn. The hotel was a beautiful old house and very nice decorated with old local items. The rooms were also simple and tastfully decorated. My room was beautiful, but quite damp because it was sort of in the middle of this old house. Breakfast was very good and the restaurant had wonderful vieuw of the snowclad Himalayas.

II liked the place, but would suggestion that the restaurant area should look cleaner. It might be difficult in such an old building, but it is possible. I did not like that they had a tiny tip-box which was put under other things in the reseption so that it was totally invisible. A tip-box is a must.
