I didn’t know before booking, but the gate closes at 10/10:30. So it’s kinda inconvenient if you’re going out and end up staying out late.

It was peaceful, walking distance from the main town area. The staff were kind; there was a storm that knocked out the power and he came to help give us at least electricity for the fan through the generator and changed the wiring in the switch. The bathroom was clean. Close to many tour operators. Got to see many elephants walking on the street with guides.

There are working elephants walking in front of the property every morning and night you can offer bananas to. The property is on a street with plenty of good restaurants and shops. The owner also helped us set up a tour that was fair in price with the other guides in the area. Got to see a tiger which was really exciting.

The best place, in a quiet area with a beautiful view and very close to the Main Street. Clean and specious room with good shower and fan. Prakash and his family are very nice, kind and sweet. I really enjoyed my stay with the. Helped me to organize my full day safari for a good price. I had Surendra and Samer as my morning guides during the walking safari and they are absolutely the best. We even saw a leopard which is extremely rare. I would highly recommend to do the tour with them. I also did the jeep safari in the afternoon, which allowed me to see more of the park and enjoy more of the marine life that this beautiful place has to offer.

Hotel Rhinoceros, Prakash and family, were so welcoming! As soon as I arrived we discussed and planned my activities and within an hour I was joining the afternoon jeep safari. The following day I did canoeing and a full day walking tour, all arranged by Prakash and with the excellent guides, Jeevan and Anish. It was an amazing day, I was lucky enough to see a tiger but even without that there was so much to see and learn about the flora and fauna of Nepal. I felt so at home, and the breakfast and packed lunch were just what was needed also. I would love to stay again one day!

Location was great.the family running the place was very hospitable. You can spot deers , boars, rhinos ,elephants various birds right from the balcony as it is located next to the national park. The owner has extensive knowledge on the bird species in chitwan I recommend the full day safari tour and request the owner ( prakash ) to accompany you.

The truth is, I found the hotel thanks to the reviews, and I totally agree with them. The hotel is 8 minutes from the center but has no noise. Both Prakash and the two guides (Anhis and Jeevan) were very helpful in everything. The explanations were accurate and reasonable prices. Both guides are very professional, and you can tell they enjoy their work. A great experience,Thank you.

Nothing we loved it all!

Amazing place!!! Great location with lovely food places near by and in a slightly quieter end of town (still very close to everything though!). Room was spacious and comfortable and we loved the shared balcony for a drink in the evening. The best thing was the hosts, they organised everything for us including serving us delicious breakfast in the morning and packed lunches when we needed it, and booking our onward travel. They really made our stay very memorable, especially seeing a rhino just a few metres from the homestay! The activities they organised (jeep, boating and walking trips) were great, with lovely guides that came to pick us up in the mornings.

We had an unforgettable stay at this hotel near Chitwan National Park! For such an affordable price, we got so much in return. The rooms were very clean, the bed very comfortable, we had a nice view from the balcony, and the staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful. One of the highlights was the location – surrounded by nature, we could sometimes see animals (rhino and elephant) walking by the hotel, which made the experience even more special. The hotel also helped us arrange tours and activities in the park for a good price, making it easy to explore the area. The peaceful atmosphere was perfect for relaxing after a day of adventure. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly place with great service and a unique experience close to nature, this is the perfect choice! We would definitely come back.

We were here for second time for safari in the park. We had a full day hiking in the park and hotel offered really experienced and best guids. The cost of tour was reasonable and fair. We were lucky to see sloth bear, rhinoceros and wild elephant during the tour. In addition , location of hotel is perfect, quite and just front of the park.

On arrival Prakash picked me up on motorbike, nice gesture as 3km from bus station. Tuk tuk back booked by Prakash 200npr. Room was good size but unfortunately the next day I was ill for 24 hours so stayed in room. Nice terrace area overlooking road. All very clean. Easy walk into town if you need to book anything and rhinos visible in army base along the way. Crocodiles from viewpoint with many shops n cafes. Would suggest new bedding n towels as a lot of holes and old linen.

We loved staying at Rhinoceros-homestay for multiple reasons. Very relaxed and home-vibe stay. The owner is super helpful and booked us multiple travel tickets and experiences which all where great for a really good price!! Would recommend booking experiences here. Best thing: We have seen multiple Rhino’s from our room!

They use solar energy, so hot water is only available in the evening. I don't mind it much, just a heads-up in case you're a morning person.

Perfect is not enough to describe my stay. If I ever come back to Chitwan, it will probably be because of this homestay. - Not only the host but his whole family is welcoming and helpful. We can't thank them enough. (1) The host always went out of his way to assist us even for the smallest things. (2) Local food is a bit salty for our taste, so we asked his mom to cook us dinner. It's easily the best meal we had in our whole trip in Nepal. Simple but hearty. (3) I got a headache due to the chill, so his father gave me his own pills, which made the headache vanish like it never existed. - Room is super clean with nice view from balcony, and just a short walk to the national park entrance and town. We literally saw a rhino walking by the front door one afternoon in the most laid-back manner ever. - Price is super cheap compared to what you get in return. - Breakfast is simple (just toast with egg, butter / jam and banana), but delicious. My partner cannot stop talking their amazing butter. - Communication was prompt and smooth. - I booked the tour here as well. The price is reasonable, and we got 2 wonderful knowledgeable guides.
