I checked into Nepalaya Eco Hostel on my first night in Pokhara and ended up staying for over a month. It’s such an easy place to relax and just unwind. Rather than feeling like a typical hostel, it felt more like a homestay with a restaurant—comfortable and welcoming—yet still offered the benefits of a hostel. I enjoyed meeting other travelers in the shared dorm, and the atmosphere was laid-back and friendly. The family who runs the hostel was incredibly helpful on many occasions—from finding me a quiet room for a conference call to setting up an extension cord so I could charge my laptop in the dorm. These small acts of kindness made a big difference in my stay. I’d definitely return here the next time I’m in Pokhara.

I had a wonderful stay at the Hostel Forestway! I spent one night there after trekking ABC and it had all the comforts and amenities I was hoping for after 5 days trekking up and down mountains! Specifically, the host family was really friendly, kind, and helpful — they made sure we had everything we needed and even provided recommendations on buses from Pokhara to Kathmandu. The showers were great too — clean with hot water. And the views of Lake Phewa from the rooftop are just wonderful! I stayed in the 6-bedroom dorm and it was just what I needed: affordable at 300 NPR/night but great value; clean rooms, freshly made beds, and quiet neighbors! Some of my friends stayed for longer times (both in dorms and private rooms) and had a great experience as well! Last, there's an adorable kitten who lives onsite; the cherry on top of an already wonderful stay :)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Nice chilled out hostel with friendly staff. Large common room with places to sit, books to read and a TV sometimes showing sport. Rooms were comfortable. Water refills are available, you can book buses and tours at reception and there is a 'free stuff' area which is always handy for backpackers on a budget. Laundry is 150r per kg for 24 hour turnaround or 250r for six hours.

    Kiwi backpackers is one of the best hostels I have stayed in. Location is great, very central, staff are super helpful and lovely, rooms are clean comfortable and well appointed. I had a private room and it was excellent. General vibe is friendly with lots of opportunities to meet like minded travellers. Special mention to the lovely Maya and Susma.

    Best hostel I stayed in Pokhara, and I tried a few. Very spacious and clean rooms. Super comfortable beds. The owners are always so kind. Great location right in the centre of lakeside Pokhara, the street itself is more quiet which is great since there is not much noise at night. Showers might take a few min before getting warm but there is hot water, which is nice. It was not busy when I stayed there, I had the whole dorm to myself. Ended up staying way longer than planned, because I felt so at home here!
