ネパールの山小屋 - ビレサンティ(Mountain Lodges of Nepal - Birethanti)

The oldest Lodge of the group. Good facilities with friendly staff. Lots of good walks over the 2 suspension bridges nearby. Good fire in the restaurant with good trekking dinner and breakfast. Worth accepting a hot water bottle at night. Good view of Fishtail at dawn

Beautiful setting with the opportunity to have views of Fishtail mountain if the weather is kind. Excellent food, snacks with drinks were very tasty. The rooms were comfortable, hot water bottles provided and tea brought to you in the morning. The only downside was that the beers were extremely expensive.

We stayed one night here and the food and room were both perfect. Don't expect too much luxury as you're in a very small community. However, you'll have happy hour to enjoy before a good hot dinner and when you turn in, probably with a hot water bottle, you'll sleep like a log.

This was our first of several Ker & Downey Lodge stays during our Annapurna Circuit and in many ways it was the most memorable. Upon hiking in, the small group I was trekking with was instantly greeted like family... and despite only spending about 15 hours at the lodge, we truly felt like we were part of the family as we hiked out. It is clear that from the manager of the lodge down to the newest employees... everyone truly cares about those who come to stay at the Sanctuary Lodge. If you are considering a trek through Nepal, I would certainly recommend looking at starting with the Sanctuary Lodge. In such a short time, the Sanctuary Lodge made us feel so at home thus making it hard to hike out the next morning with the all the love & hospitality they showed us. Lastly, if this is your first stay... the sunrise introducing you to Fishtail Mountain for the first time is both breathtaking and one that we are unlikely to forget! If you have any COVID concerns, both the lodge and Nepal as a whole, seem to be in a really good place in regards to combatting the pandemic. There were never any concerns on our end relating to COVID safety. 2022 is a great year to get out to Nepal, the crowd sizes are down tremendously and the country is eager to embrace tourism again!
