The Fort Resort

“Best Place to Stay in Nagarkot, Nepal 🇳🇵”

We loved the Fort. The resort was lovely, the gardens immense and immaculate. The rooms were spacious and comfy. The bed was great. Anil, the Manager and his staff were so friendly, very attentive and we felt very welcomed by them all. We love taking local walks around the town and parts of the val… more

After the hustle and bustle of Kathmandu we began to climb into the mountains. As the bus pulled ever harder around the hairpin bends, the vast Kathmandu Valley was spread below us with a magnificent sunset to top it off. Our sense of isolation was heightened by our final approach to the hotel up the steep, unlit driveway. However, we were met with a profusion of willing helpers as we were checked in and shown to our rooms. We’d lucked out with a massive room with wall to ceiling windows overlooking one of the terraces beyond which was the valley and the distant Himalayas. Being part of a group of 18, we appreciated that our dinner, chosen from an extensive menu, was served promptly and efficiently with everyone eating together. The next morning was a self-imposed early start for the showstopper that this area is deservedly famous for: the sunrise over the magnificent Himalayas. Whilst layers of cloud filled the valleys beneath us, the mountain range was mercifully clear and we were able to revel in the experience. Despite being in a group, the peace and tranquility pervaded the landscape making it almost a spiritual experience and easily the highlight of the entire tour. We later discovered that the entire mountain range had been blanketed in clouds for the previous 4-5 mornings: how lucky were we? That this hotel is so perfectly situated to enjoy these spectacular views is worthy in itself to return but it is a relaxing, friendly place with plenty of little seating areas and sunrooms from which to enjoy the views. Added to which are the tranquil gardens and numerous roof terraces.

“The gorgeous fort resort at Nagarkot.”

Wonderful hotel at Nagarkot. The moment you step into it, quality is felt. Very tastefully decorated rooms and common areas. Views of the Himalayas from the hotel is just wow. Service is quick, breakfast fabulous, huge property to roam around and enjoy the surroundings. Liked our stay.

“Reasonable without luxuries.”

Although the staff are remarkable and friendly, the hotel is very dated with few amenities. It seemed like we were in a converted storage area right next to a fantastic viewing area on a rooftop. The room was basic, with a bed on wooden floorboards in a separate room (no tv and very patchy wifi) … more

Although the staff are remarkable and friendly, the hotel is very dated with few amenities. It seemed like we were in a converted storage area right next to a fantastic viewing area on a rooftop. The room was basic, with a bed on wooden floorboards in a separate room (no tv and very patchy wifi) a lounge area with a daybed and a raised area opposite the fully glazed entrance. If you forgot to close the bathroom door properly, (situated just off the lounge area and raised) those enjoying the views of the himalaya from the roof, might also be treated to a view of you on the throne through the fully glazed entrance, as the door would regularly fall open. Likewise, closing the door properly and pulling across the shower curtain. The moon might often be glimpsed. Generally comfortable, dated and might prove challenging for people with mobility issues, as the are stairs everywhere.... But you go there for a chance to see an amazing panorama, and a moon if you peep. Unfortunately not available to us because of cloud
