    "Thats a River Lap Wing!" pointed out Sita Ram "Thats an Indian Golden Oriole......!" Sita Ram with an encyclopedic knowledge of Chitwan wildlife. I was just a novice bird watcher before I visited JWC. Now I am an Ornithologist with my 10 × 25 binoculars everywhere. The location of the Hotel is perfect and in one night we saw a wild Elephant, a Rhino and a Gharial.

    "Thats a River Lap Wing!" pointed Sita Ram " Thats an Indian Black Hooded Oriele....!" Sita Ram has an encyclopedic knowledge about wildlife in Chitwan. "There is a wild male Rhino and there is a Gharial "a very endangered crocodilian)...." he observed and showed us. We are novices and he turned me into an Ornithologist. Now I am always looking through my binoculars and trying to identify different bird species. I have not met someone so knowledgeable about the local wildlife as Sita Ram. The Hotel is in exactly the correct spot to observe wildlife and avian culture.

    Only one thing really. The air conditioner drained on the bathroom floor (so it always had a puddle) almost wiped out a few times.

    Location was amazing. The room was spacious had air conditioning & hot water... loved sitting on the shared balcony to relax. Hotel slightly weathered. Staff was amazing & helpful

    Nothing we didn't like, but occasionally power would drop out but this is an issue all around Nepal.

    THE STAFF ARE AMAZING! Every morning we were welcomed with smiles from Sitaram, and no issue was ever to much. He would point out every animal he saw, basically your in house guide. The view is stunning, we saw rhinos and crocodiles from the restraunt almost every day. The rooms are comfortable, with good AC, and super clean.

    Good location and next to the river with a nice view. The staff is very friendly and helpful, which made us feel very welcome. It is possible to book tours, safari’s and bustickets at the reception. The staff arranged a car to drop us off at the busstation for free, which we really appreciated since it was very early in the morning. Special thanks to Sitaram, who is a great restaurantmanager! He showed us the animals on the riverside and made sure we didn’t miss a thing! We stayed in the tent, which can get very hot during the day, but the private terrace in front of the tent makes up for it! Would definately recommed staying here!

    Fan in our room was dodgy and loud however we had an air conditioner so used that instead.

    Fantastic location. We had an amazing view from the balcony outside our room (2nd floor) but you can get the same view sitting next to the river at breakfast- saw elephants and wild Rhino and crocodile and loads of birds from here. Large room that was clean and had the hottest shower I had in all our time in Nepal. We arranged our full day safari through the hotel - we opted to have a guide and jeep (with driver) to ourselves (4 of us). It was a great day with a really experienced guide and we just walked down the river a bit, got in a boat to cross the river & the safari started. Saw a tiger! The staff at this hotel were super friendly and welcoming and provided a packed lunch for our safari too.

    Nothing!

    There is free transport from the local bus stop to the hotel and the staff are very welcoming, especially Sitaram in the restaurant, who can't do enough to help. The buffet breakfast is good and plentiful, and changes daily. Our room was basic but clean with a great view of the river and the shower was powerful and hot. The location was great for walking to the main street. The highlight was definitely the riverside location where we could watch the beautiful sunsets and the elephants being bathed.

    The location is perfect, right at the bank of river overlooking the forest, you can see rhino and crocs right out from your balcony. And hear sound of animals and birds overnight. Also the sunset is mesmerizing. The staff is very cordial and especially like to mention the Sitaram who assisted in every possible way. Perfect place to stay if you love nature.

    The location is amazing! Right on the river, so make sure to get a room with a balcony overlooking and it's a great relaxation spot. It's only a 5-10 minute walk from the main street where all the restaurants are, so quiet, but convenient. The room and bathroom were a good size. Occasionally, I had trouble getting hot water, but I think it was a morning timing issue, because other times it was great. The beds were okay, but definitely not the best. The bottom sheet didn't cover the bottom of the mattress and once I noticed, I felt like I couldn't straighten my legs or I would touch the mattress. All of the staff were pleasant, but the man that runs the restaurant is an absolute gem. He makes a good breakfast, but is also happy to chat about all the animals on the river. He would always greet us as we were returning to our room and even checked to make sure we had enough toilet paper (this was the only hotel in Nepal where we actually did have enough). This place is an incredible value and I highly recommend it.

    Prices for excursions were a quite high (at least for the multiday ones we were wanting). We found what we were looking for elsewhere though so not a problem!

    Great spot with an amazing view of the river and park. Amazing service. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great. Location can't be beat as it's only a couple minute walk to the main part of the town.
