Lakeside (Gaurigat)

Trekkers Inn

A good-value Lakeside hotel two minutes from Phewa Lake, renovated in 2025, with a rooftop terrace, garden, restaurant and spa. It is the budget pick for walkers, backpackers and anyone who wants a central base without paying resort prices.

★★★★★

Trekkers Inn is on Street 7 in Gaurigat, Lakeside, about a two-minute walk from Phewa Lake. The booking page shows a three-star property class and notes a renovation completed in March 2025. The hotel offers free covered parking, free WiFi in rooms, a restaurant, a coffee shop and a bar, a rooftop terrace and a garden with a barbecue grill, plus a spa with massage and facial treatments. Archery, a library and a playground add a relaxed touch, and a boat and paddles are available for use. There is a 24-hour front desk, an ATM, laundry and luggage storage, and staff help with tours and tickets. Air conditioning, heating and ceiling fans are listed, and guests have access to a nearby indoor pool.

For a trekker, this is a practical base. The hotel's luggage storage means you can leave spare gear while you walk the Poon Hill or Australian Camp routes, and the tour and ticket desk can help arrange sunrise trips, paragliding and transfers. The lake is two minutes away, Ratna Mandir is about a six-minute walk, and the booking page shows the Pokhara Museum and the International Mountain Museum a few minutes by car, with the airport around twenty minutes away. Lakeside restaurants and cafes are on the doorstep.

The facilities are generous for the price. A rooftop terrace is a pleasant place for tea in the evening, and a garden gives a little quiet. Buffet breakfast is served in the morning at a modest extra cost, and an airport shuttle is offered for a fixed fee per vehicle. Check-in begins at midday and check-out is before noon, with express check-out available, and the minimum check-in age is eighteen. Wi-Fi is free in the rooms, and the heating is welcome on cold November nights.

Trekkers Inn is best for budget-minded couples, solo travelers and groups of friends who prefer to spend on activities rather than rooms. It is a fit for travelers who want to be near restaurants and tour offices rather than isolated. The trade-off is that it is a simpler hotel than the resorts, with fewer leisure facilities, so those wanting a large pool and spa on site may prefer a bigger property. Book early for the autumn peak, ask for a quiet room away from the street and confirm the shuttle price before you fly in.
