Banbas Resort, Chitwan

Very nice, friendly and helpful staff. Very clean and good food.

Somewhat far away from the village and isolated. It does not give you the feeling to be in Nepal. We went to the village to see the sun set and have some food and drinks. This felt like an energy boost for us.

Super friendly staffGorgeous surroundings The greenery is beautiful

Was difficult to reach from Bharatpur airport and they charge too much for activities and transportation There were tons of insects in the room AC was a bit weak

Beautiful hotel. Well located. Can organise all your safari needs. Our guide on the safaris (Chanu) was brilliant.

It was the perfect stay after the Manaslu trek: Warm weather and luxurious while still being outside of the crowded town.

This is a great hotel to stay in Chitwan. Fantastic rooms, great restaurant,it was the best food i ate in Nepal . The staff are all first class, especially the manager hes brilliant & good fun too .The trips they arranged for me where really good & value for money too I would definitely stay here again and I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends who want to visit Chitwan national Park.

Nothing at all

Fabulous location. Right next to the safari park. The rooms are large and well appointed. Loos are spacious and well equipped. Pool, breakfast and common areas are beautiful! I wish I had stayed for longer.

The property was beautifully designed, finished, and maintained for luxury safari accommodations. All luxury amenities are provided, staff were kind and accommodating, WiFi was strong throughout the property, food at the restaurant was very fresh and delicious, rooms are generously sized and comfortable (as are the beds!), and the tropical-style pool was wonderful. The property is eco friendly with home grown fruits and vegetables, the pool recycles its water, the landscaping is tropically lush with indigenous plants abutting the meandering stone walkways, each room is a free-standing Nepali-style structure that blends into the landscape, the furniture is locally designed and made, and the individual buildings reflect local building traditions and use high-quality materials including stone floors, and rough hewn wood walls. My bathroom was elegant with high-end fittings and fixtures, and was spotlessly clean. Staff is happy to arrange full or half-day safaris with elephants, jeeps, canoes or walking at a very reasonable cost, and the hotel sponsors periodic outdoor programs around an outdoor fire pit featuring local performers.

It would have been nice if the hotel was within walking distance of Sauraha, local center of the tourism action, but the hotel was happy to call a tuk tuk, and at a cost of only $3 (US) for a quick ride into town, it could be considered part of the fun. I also missed having an in-room safe, although it’s really not essential here since the entire property is walled and guarded.

Banbas is a hidden gem! From the moment I arrived, I felt like I was stepping into the national park. The property is right outside the national park, but it genuinely feels like part of it. The pond and wetland are teeming with life—100+ bird species, fish swimming around (a staff noted that fish are fed with waste food from the hotel kitchen!), and even a waterfall in the pool area. It’s so peaceful!The rooms are villa-style, super comfortable, and have amazing views of the pond. I loved the Tharu-style artwork in the decor—such a nice touch that celebrates local culture. The property is also wheelchair-friendly, which I really appreciated.The staff was fantastic—welcoming me with drinks and flowers at check-in. The food was a perfect mix of local and international dishes, and everything felt thoughtfully curated.Can’t wait to visit again!

Nothing really! Everything was fantastic.

Very good resort hotel. Very clean and very cosy. It is near to the Nationalpark. They offer tours with fair prices. The food at the restaurant is delicious. All the stuff is friendly and help if you had the need for.We saw a traditional dancing show which was very interesting. When we arrived, we got a small flower and a good juice.

Excellent Guides for tours in the national park

Kitchen is the only section not having the excellent level of the other ones

The place is beautiful, very clean! Everthing was perfect! i highly recommend! Our guide Mr. Ram Parajuli was incredible, super knowledgeble, very kind! All the employers were amazing ?

Cody oasis close to the jungle. Had a great time.

Restaurant could be a bit more diverse

Comfortable and peaceful. Very close to the forest. Swimming pool was nice. Rooms were spacious and clean. Staff were very cooperative. Food could have been better.

Needs a playroom for kids.

Absolutely fabulous resort. Beautiful gardens around a small lake. Location is next to an elephant sanctuary and close to the entrance of the park. Staff is formidable and they team has lots of knowledge of animals and nature.

Wondeful setting, The resort is a couple of kilometres from the town in a quiet rural setting. The resort has been built to a very high standard, The main main of the resort has a spacious reception area, where we were greeted with fruits Juice whilst we checked in. We were show to a bungalow by very helpful and eager to please hotel staff. The bungalow was spacious and layout of the room was tastefully laid out. There was a big swimming pool, next to a lake which was beautiful.

The hotel was slightly far out from the town Center, needed to get a tuktok.

The resort is a truly gem. Tasteful architecture with respect for traditional building style and traditional material - all with refinement and that extra touch.The bungalows are all placed round the pond with a balcony facing the waterfront. The rooms are spacious and decorated with sal wood details. Lovely bathroom With all the comfort you can ask for. The rooms are cleaned and filled up with water, flowers and consumables every day. The pool area is a perfect place to rest after a long day in the Jungle. The garden around the pool area is surrounded with nice greenery and filled with birds and beautiful butterflies. The nature guides are very knowledgeable and likeable persons - wich I think is important when you are going to spend a whole day in the jungle.All of the staff is very helpful and friendly and you definetly feel that their aim is to make your stay something extra!

there was absolutly nothing to complain about.

Lovely hotel setup with individual room ‘cabins’ arranged around the lake, with an abundance of birds. The room was spacious and extremely comfortable. Very attentive staff. Great breakfast and good food at the restaurant. Wonderful pool overlooking the lake. The location is slightly outside the hustle and bustle of Sauraha but easy to get a cheap Tuktuk to and from the centre. It’s a relatively new hotel, hence only having a few reviews on here, so don’t be put off by that!

Amazing facilities! Very attentive and friendly staff, we were treated very well. The pool and the lake were beautiful and we even got a chance to go on a birdwatching tour with a naturalist. The property has over 80 birds and it created a great atmosphere. Overall this is a very beautifully designed resort with great amenities.
