The enchanting paradox of Bandipur is that although it is the definitive mountain town there is in fact nowhere else quite like it. With an enviable ‘eagle’s nest’ vantage point perched high above the Marshyangdi Valley, this tasteful, The Old Inn has uninterrupted views of the Himalayas. A new addition to the Old inn, but with its own very unique flavor, is the adjacent former ancestral mansion house where vintage architectural features and modernity combine seamlessly. Our most ambitious restoration project to date now offers delightful guest rooms.
Bandipur, once a bustling trade hub between India and Tibet, exudes a unique sense of history and faded grandeur. Its strategic location between Kathmandu, Pokhara, and Chitwan makes it an ideal retreat. The Old Inn, a restored Newari townhouse, transports you to an era of ancient trade routes and overflowing store-rooms.
The restoration of The Old Inn focused on preserving its traditional Newari architecture, including its low ceilings and proportions, while adding modern amenities like comfortable showers and toilet
