LAKESIDE · NEPAL · EST. 1990
Family-run Lodge in Pokhara Lakeside with spectacular mountain views, lush gardens, and the warmth of a Nepali home.
We're nestled on a quiet lane just a short stroll from Phewa Lake. It's the perfect balance: close enough to easily explore the vibrant lakeside, yet peaceful enough for a deeply restful night's sleep.
You'll find marble floors, reliably hot showers, fast WiFi, and sweeping mountain views to wake up to. We obsess over cleanliness so you can simply relax.
The family team are here for you. Whether you need help planning a trek or just want a good local coffee recommendation, we love helping our guests.
We believe a beautiful, comfortable stay shouldn't break the bank. With cozy rooms starting from just $12 a night, we offer genuine Nepalese hospitality that travelers can afford.
Hospitality runs in our blood. Our founder, Kul Bahadur Acharya, comes from a family that opened Lakeside's very first guesthouse over 30 years ago. When he built Nanohana right across from his own family home, he wanted to create a place that felt like an extension of his living room—blending quietly into the natural garden and feeling instantly like home.
From the flowers we tend on our balconies to our simple eco-friendly touches, everything we do is rooted in the belief that a memorable stay shouldn't cost the earth.

"We decided this was our favorite hotel in all of Nepal. Best hot showers, impeccably clean rooms, beautiful gardens and rooftop deck. Friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend."
"Although a 10-story building is built nearby, one lives here in a small oasis. Modernized 3-story lodge, cozy rooms with renovated bathrooms, and lovingly arranged flowering plants on every terrace."
"What a jewel. The whole place is immaculately clean. The shady balcony garden is an oasis of calm. As a solo female traveller I was completely comfortable. Would not hesitate to recommend."
— Kul Bahadur Acharya, Founder
We prefer to keep our eco-efforts simple and genuine, rather than making a big fuss. For instance, we place simple water bottles in our toilet tanks to save 2 liters per flush. We prioritize buying local, hiring neighbors, and keeping our footprint as gentle as the mountain breeze.
Simple water-bottle restrictors in our toilets save 2 liters per flush.
We only work with certified, local guides, cooks, and drivers.
Solar water heaters and plastic-free bathrooms.
Fresh herbs come straight from our garden.
