Reviews of Little Pilgrim Family Lodge

Beautiful place, where you can chill and relax. Close to the Main Street. Really clean and comfortable

The location is perfectly surrounded by many yoga and singing bowl retreat centers. That’s the main reason we choose this stay. The room also has stunning lake view which has really good sunlight and ventilation that makes our stay so comfortable. The room and attached toilet is overall clean and interior remain very well so to speak. Owner also very responsive to our needs as for kettle and hangers whenever we request. We sleep really well during our stay and feel so blissful waking up with such scenic Mountain View just in front of our room. Also the wheat bakery which is so recommended is just located opposite down to the hotel, which I almost visit everyday for breakfast.

Great Lake view from the balcony. Quiet area. Great value. The owner, Vishnu, is super nice and helpful. They will do your laundry by hand and dry it on a rope.

It is located on a hill, with a steep climb. Cars cannot access it, only scooters

Great view of the lake, close to Lakeside and the main area with restaurants. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Wifi was good (first time during our three weeks in Nepal). Hot water took a minute, but works well. Very clean.

Coffee is cheaper by the cup than purchasing a pot. A small pot was literally one cup. A large pot was 3 cups but 5 times the price.

I really love the location, room, views, family atmosphere and ambience of this place. The best value for money in Nepal so far. It makes you feel like you want to stay for a month. The owner will go out of his way to provide good service: tickets, guiding advice/organisation, bag storage. Nothing is a problem. Mr. Bishnu even kept the same room for me after I returned from the trek. This place is very safe for solo females.

An absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcome — the host is truly kind and always ready to help with great local tips. The entire staff went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. The view from our room was breathtaking — waking up to the lake was just magical. The location couldn’t be better, just a short walk to the lake and plenty of great restaurants nearby. I highly recommend this place and would come back in a heartbeat!

The room was clean and cousy. The hotel is located in a very central place and yet quite. The host was very welcoming, he also gives very good and profound advices.

This place is excellent value for money. I stayed in the top room, which had an amazing view and my own private balcony — a real treat! The hotel is on a small hill, which is why the view is so beautiful. It does require a bit of an uphill walk, but I didn’t mind it at all. I really appreciated the thoughtful touches like the free filtered water and sandals, which made me feel very comfortable. The location is great — just a 5 to 10-minute walk to all the restaurants, spas, tour offices, and even the lakeside. The owner and his son were incredibly helpful and even let me store my big backpack for free while I went trekking. I absolutely loved my stay here!

The room is very clean and well maintained, with beautiful red brick walls. The owner Vishnu is wonderful and kind. It feels like a home away from home. The location is very good - not too close to the busy main road, but not too far either. A short walk down to all the cafes, or a short walk up into the amazing forest. The little balcony has a view of the lake and the mountains.

Very friendly host, from the beginning on we had a welcoming feeling. He also organized bus for us, we had laundry and tea. Everything was perfect. Room was nice and clean. Location at northern end of lakeside is oerfect. More quiet but all you need.

Our stay was truly wonderful. The host was incredibly kind and welcoming, and he helped organize a fantastic trek for us with a reliable and friendly team of porters. The rooms were spotless and comfortable, and the view from the property was good. The location is ideal — peaceful, scenic, and a perfect base before or after trekking. We felt well taken care of every step of the way. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Nepal!

• Very beautiful balcony towards the Lake. Sunshine fall on the floor of room in the afternoon. You can just simply sit and enjoy the sunshine, breeze, bird singing, lake view… • Wide room, plenty of space for relaxing. • Warm welcome from the host, who is a really professional trekking guide with 33 years experience • Clean, decent and convenient washroom. Nice hot water shower.

Great location, comfortable and clean room. Balcony attached. The owner is so hospitable and nice!

Great location. Wander down the hill & you’re on the Main Street of Phewa Lake. Balcony overlooked the lake. Very clean. Hot water does not run out. Bishnu and his staff are kind & do not push any tours or packages on their guests. Sweet old dog.

Quiet location but only a few minutes away from restaurants and the lake. Nice hang out area with free tea, coffee and water refills.

The owner, his family, his staff are very welcoming, arranging and also professional. The owner welcomed us with delicious milk coffee waiting for the room, which is always a nice move. The rooms are spacious, clean, smell good and have a balcony with wonderful view of Lakeside, forest and lake. There is free water and you can order some drinks and food. The location is perfect, in a peaceful area but still very close to everything. They can arrange bike rent, and they also do some trekking tours. For the price, just amazing place to stay ! …and they have cute dog and cat 😁

Nothing

I booked the little pilgrim family lodge last minute upon my arrival at lakeside and was met with kindness and care. It was no problem that I had come last minute and I was made to feel very welcome. I was offered a tea or coffee on arrival which I thought was lovely and the tea was delicious! The room was comfortable and even though there was a thunderstorm I felt very safe and warm in the room. The views overlook the lake and the mountains and there is a lovely balcony to sit on. The bathroom was sparkly clean and there was a lovely hot temperature for the shower. What really made this place shine for me was the host Bishnu and his nephew. They were so kind to me and thoughtful in helping out with anything that I needed even thinking of the things that I required but didn’t realise! The breakfast was absolutely superb as well. I highly recommend staying here and it has been the most memorable stay of my trip to Nepal. Thank you 😇

Beutiful and quiet place. The room was clean, and comfort. Shower was great, and they have small private balcony with a view in every room. Located in a quiet place, not too close to the main road :)

A truly wonderful place – felt like home! I had an amazing time at this hotel – it was the best stay I’ve had during my entire trip in Pokhara. The place is simply wonderful: spotlessly clean, peaceful, cozy, and beautifully designed. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and everything is cared for with so much love. The owner, Bishnu, is an exceptional person. He and his lovely family treat the hotel like their own home, and you can feel that in every detail. His children are wonderful too – such kind and genuine people. Compared to other places I stayed at before, this one truly stood out. To my great luck, Bishnu is not only the host but also a professional trekking guide and mountaineer with 33 years of experience in the mountains. Since I’m heading to do the Annapurna Circuit solo, I had many questions about logistics, safety, and the route – and he kindly offered detailed advice and shared all the information I needed. He even offered to keep some of my extra belongings at the hotel until I return from the trek, which was incredibly helpful. During one of our conversations, he told me that his team consists of 13 people, including porters and other staff, and all of them lost their families in earthquakes or grew up without parents…Now they all work together, support each other, and have become a family. 🥹That really touched me and gave me even more respect for this place and the people behind it. One small sweet thing: when he saw my iPhone without a case, he brought me one of his own.😅 This place is more than just a hotel – it's a place filled with heart. Thank you!)

Excellent view if u have the upper floors, great location to the lake side walk.

Amazing stay! The host and their family were so kind, offering us the best tea we had had in our time in Nepal. Beautiful atmosphere, a lovely kitten roaming around looking for pets. Lovely room, great view, very clean. 100% would recommend!
