Queen’s forest, or Raniban in Nepali, is where Raniban Retreat is located. On the secluded hillock of Raniban hill forest in Pokhara resides a unique boutique hotel offering you an eco-friendly environment tailor-made for you.
14 clean and comfortable rooms, an infinity pool, sumptuous food, spa, great views, traditional hospitality, and 24-hour solar power back up, are what we offer you at Raniban Retreat – a small boutique hotel for spending your exclusive time.
Perhaps the best activity is getting here! Take a short ride across the calm waters of Fewa Lake and trek slowly up the dense Raniban, the Queen’s Jungle. Watch out for Barking Deer, Langur and Jungle Chickens as you ascend to the Vishwa Shanti, The World Peace Stupa.
Sustainability stands at the heart of our business. We are fully solar powered, have our own natural spring water source, our own herb and vegetable garden, and try to promote local manpower from nearby villages as much as we can. This is something that is important to us and is one of our founding ethos of the project.
We also engage in regular medical check ups for locals in coordination with Bidula Trust, a voluntary charity organization that provides free awareness and screening programs regarding cervical cancer.
