I booked The Terraces for a short, luxury break after a long work trip across Nepal and India, and I was extremely pleased I did! The hotel and its surrounding area are stunning, with well-maintained grounds and facilities. My room was enormous and the terrace had an incredible view over Kathmandu - the inclusive snacks and drinks from the minibar were much appreciated! The a la carte menu was delicious. The hotel has a number of free activities you can book and join, ranging from yoga and hiking to sunset drinks and cookery demonstrations. I really enjoyed having spa treatments and the view from the spa is spectacular. The staff are very helpful and kind, right from the point of booking to getting you back to the airport! (Definitely do not book your own transport there or back, as it's not easy getting up that mountain. The hotel transfers are in 4x4s with drivers who know the road so 100% book with the hotel!)

The pool area is not staffed earlier in the day, although people do go there straight after breakfast - so it's difficult to get a drink as it's quite a way from reception to go and ask. I'd also suggest a small amenities shop and maybe a cash machine, as you are not able to quickly get to Kathmandu if you need anything (although the hotel staff were able to help me on this front), or do not have enough cash to pay for tips (for the spa, for example). Although I really enjoyed the spa, the menu of treatments is relatively small, and for a resort this size I'd expect there to be more variety in types of treatments. Finally, the buffet tended to be a bit cold - which is a real shame for the chefs as well as for guests, but can be easily fixed.

Stunning property in the mountains near Kathmandu, lovely pool area and fantastic modern and well-designed rooms. We loved the hotel to relax after a long trek and would absolutely come back!

The road to the hotel is quite the challenge. For day trips to Kathmandu and/or activities in the area, you need to plan with approx 45-60 minutes each way to get up or down the mountain road. Not an issue once you know about it (and sorted your transportation!) but was a bit unexpected for us.

Terraces is a GEM!! It’s one of the most Fabulous places I’ve ever been to!! Mesmerizing views of the city and Whole stretch of the Himalaya!! The breakfast and restaurant are superb!! The Swimming pool heated up to 30C, whirlpool was amazing. Very much enjoyed the included sundowner drink and appetizer from the Helipad with superb views! And the manager and staff are the most kind, helpfull and warm I’ve ever experienced (and I travelled quite some places if I may say). I am definitely coming back Here and can VERY STRONGLY RECOMMEND this luxury and most comfortable resort!! Also the included morning yoga sessions were wonderful!! And adding up to that, the included guided hikes in the surrounding Forest and jungle were amazing!! It is such an incredible place in Kathmandu. Love to come back as soon as possible!

Nothing!! All was great!!

The resort offers spectacular views of the Himalayas. Rooms are spacious with a stunning terrace backdrop. Activities such as daily yoga, ATV, and the local kitchen were a bonus. The resort also kindly arranged birthday celebrations which made for a special day. Staff were always happy to help out where required.

Cleanliness of the bathroom and general bedroom area could be improved, i.e., removal of mould from the shower area. Additional signage on the road up to the resort would assist in avoiding any precarious wrong turns. Some of the activities advertised online are not available all year, i.e., ziplining and picnics.

I recently stayed at The Terraces Resort and Spa in Nepal, and it was an incredible experience. The staff truly made my stay special, going above and beyond to support me at every step. They were always helpful, friendly, and attentive. The spa and sound healing were also highlights of my visit. The treatments were incredibly relaxing, and the sound healing was a unique, calming experience. The resort itself is beautiful, with stunning views and comfortable accommodations. But what really sets it apart is the amazing staff and the outstanding wellness services. I highly recommend The Terraces Resort and Spa for anyone looking for a memorable stay in Nepal.

Nothing

The venue is simply amazing! The people, the location, the food, the schedule. You start your morning with yoga, then doughnuts at the local kitchen, and tracking after that. You can do a massage with an exceptional mountain view and finish your day with a jacuzzi and a glass of wine savouring delicious food at the restaurant—best regards to Deepak, an amazing chef. The yoga instructors were also great. BTW forgot to mention the sunset program at the viewpoint next to the hotel - music, beverages and amazing scenery. 11 out of 10! Thank you for the great 4 days! I will be back!

everything was perfect!!!

Unforgettable experience, unique views at The Himalayas from this altitude, professional & friendly and helpful staff, delicious dishes from the restaurant, 1st class chef, special activities organized

The location is definitely unique and because of the altitude very challenging to reach, there´s only one road to reach the resort and difficult for regular cars. (off-road track) Nevertheless, we used the mountainbikes to go down and visit Bhaktapur which was a very energizing daytrip.

Samir the General manager was a great host. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Same reflects with every employee. They are caring/helpful and each one sends positive vibes. Awesome Location -> From restaurant, swimming pool and rooms you can see mountains view. Its beautiful. High tea Point is unique it has stairs to go up but evening view looks awesome. Food is delicious (buffet/room service) Try local food Sail (nepalese food using coal/wood) prepared in morning (its refreshing - we all enjoyed it the most) its near the Yoga center. Garden we could see plants mint, .... -> kids enjoy it. Multiple trails 2-5 kms (2-5 hrs duration)

The walk to the rooms. 20-30 staircases. If you want to go for three times meal its little painful. As its part of nature, you find insects. My kids were not very happy.

We had a fabulous stay at The Terraces and highly recommend it. The location has superb views over Kathmandu (although due to smog we couldn’t see the mountains). The facilities are great and best of all, the team there made our stay more wonderful. In particular Supana on front desk for her organised professionalism and good advice, Aadesh for wonderful morning yoga sessions (complimentary and very worthwhile), and their local hiking guide, whose name we didn’t catch, but who took us on some lovely local walks and berry picking (also complimentary). Food was great and serving staff extremely polite and accommodating. If we ever get back to Nepal, we’ll come back here!

Nothing. Only one word of advice, to get there, take the hotel’s transfer service. It’s a bit more money but don’t do what we did, which was have our transfer drivers from Pokhara (long story, our flight was cancelled), try to drive up the wrong, very steep, precarious gravel road. The hotel has another access road which is far safer…

Wow! This is a very special place with amazing views and tranquil atmosphere. The staff are attentive and take care in making you feel comfortable and relaxed by providing everything at your fingertips. My husband and and I were greeted with a warm reception from Rabin Khadka went above and beyond to make it very special for our 10th anniversary. Thank you all for providing us with a unforgettable stay. If I could rate this hotel I would give each category a 10 star.

The fact I didn’t book a longer stay!
