Everything was great.

Great place to spot deer, birds, water buffaloes and sometimes even rhinos. Delicious food. Good tours with Manu and Sudas.

Some insects in the room, but the mosquito net was good, so it was not a big problem.

The location is amazing, just on the riverside. In four days I saw three different rhinos from my room! The staff is really nice and helpful, the food delicious. I did a walk safari with two local guides, Manu and Das, it was a great experience! Thanks to everyone!

As others have said, the rooms could use a little TLC.

Amazing place, kind people, beautiful views of Chitwan park and the river. Would love to stay here again!!! We saw crocs, elephants, and tons of birds right from the property. 15 min walk from town. Good food. Vegan options available.

Nothing I didn't like. Only thing that was a bit of a pain was I had to tape my plugs into the plug sockets as they didn't stay in. Luckily I had some electrical tape so wasn't a problem but they could do with a look at.

I had a lovely stay at bamby chilling house. The location is incredible, it is on the river and was the most peaceful place I've stayed. I slept so well here. Town is just a short walk away but I ate at the bamby chilling a lot as I found their veg Thali the best I'd tried in the area. I will definitely come back and stay here!

Beautiful view, very relaxing, far from the tourist road. Good budget option. We booked the walking/canoe tour with our hotel, they gave us a good price for the tour and our guides, Manu and Sudash were very knowledgeable! Great experience!

The location right on the river was fabulous- surrounded by wildlife. Each bedroom Hut had their own little balcony looking out and there were plenty of seats around the property to chill out on and watch the wildlife go by. Although it is a more basic property it was undoubtably value for money and my room was totally comfortable.

Very nice staff

Dogs living onsite were lovely animals but could be very noisy barking. Seems like a very first world problem but I was unable to sleep well from a hard uncomfortable mattress.

Great helpful staff, beautiful location riverside, mostly peaceful. Extremely good value for money.

The only thing that was not as great as the rest were the rooms. The whole structure shakes if you move inside. The shower was not very pleasant and water went through the wall and onto the floor of the other room. Since everything else was great, we still highly recommend the accomodation.

First of all, the staff is amazing! All the people working there are very friendly and you'll feel at home in no time! The views from the balconies and terraces are amazing, fog crawling over the river in the morning, great sunset in the evening. Also the food there is very good! We ate there every day and were always more than satisfied! Especially their Malay Kofta and Coconut porridge are a treat! They are also very helpful with organizing tours and transport for a fair price. We did the walking tours in the national park and buffer zone with the guides Manu and Jitendra. Two very knowledgeable and friendly guides with whom we had two lovely canoe rides and walks in the morning. We saw multiple rhinos, gharial & mugger, deer, maquaces, lots of birds and tiger and bear footprints.

Surrounded by nature, with a beautiful river and jungle view. I saw wild rhinos and many birds from this hotel. One of the nature-rich places in Chitwan, Sauraha. I really enjoyed my days.

Fanstatic location, sunrise and sunset river's view from cottages. Watching wild animals (rhinow, elephants, crocodiles, buffalos, monkeys just from patio. Real experience of Nature. Real warmth of family who run the place. Best place ever in Chitwan:) Serving homemade fresh meals until late night.

Ok, there is no doubt that the location is the best of the best! There is not everyday that you can stay riverside in front of a national reserve (and at such a good price). Stunning sunsets and sunrises everyday! Sounds of nature (birds, etc) everyday, all day! Also, the room was spacious enough and there was always hot water. The staff was helpful and kind. The walking distance to sauraha centre was ok for us (we did it everyday). We extended our stay and really enjoyed our time at Bamby and sauraha in general! Downsides: the mattress of the bed was so hard and i can say it's the only thing missing for the total relaxation. They could have a Pos machine! We are on 2025 and international travellers visit the hotel everyday. Only cash payments may be a problem for some people. They could also have an electric kettle in the rooms, as there is nothing near to at least prepare a coffee or tea. Also, the menu is a bit overpriced compared to sauraha downtown places. Last, but not least, non clients are allowed at the hotel area and usually they make so much noise because I guess they are not in the chilling mood.

A house on the banks of the Rapti River, in front of the National Park and next to the Community Forest . Highly recommended for new travelers who want to have a good experience in Chitwan.

Nothing

An amazing and unique location right on the river front - our room was basic but directly overlooking the river and had everything we needed. We saw animals from our balcony and the lovely riverbank seating spots on more than day! Also a very easy walk, about 15 mins, into town. The staff are all incredibly kind and helpful and went out of their way to help with anything we needed. We booked 2 jungle walks through the guesthouse (one in the national park and one in the buffer zone) and had very knowledgeable guides both days (Manu & Sudash and Maya & Aspen). Food also was delicious - we had breakfast, some packed lunches for our jungle walks and dinner and it was all delicious with plenty of options. We booked this place for 2 nights and ended up staying for 4, highly recommended!

Ask for an extra blanket in the winter if you’re someone who gets cold.

I felt so peaceful and relaxed at this place. they have great food options, lots of nice places to sit and watch the river and an adorable puppy. The owners are so lovely too and always happy to help. I booked the jungle walk and the guides they use were super professional and friendly.
