Stayed here for meditation retreat and could not have been happier. The staff is very kind, considerate and the food is delicious. The property itself is very peaceful and the surrounding area gives you great access to Nepal life in a semi-rural environment. I would highly recommend it.

The only stressful moment at Shivapuri Heights Cottages is trying to find something original to write in the guestbook! All the superlatives have been used. Fabulous, relaxing, home from home, wonderful view, superb food, welcoming hosts, lovely dogs, the entries repeat themselves and you can only agree. We stayed for 4 nights, first in the lovely Poinsettia Cottage, and then... More

My wife and I had not seen each other for five weeks as she was volunteering in Nepal and I was busy trekking. We needed to meet-up somewhere to relax, and get out of busy Kathmandu. Shivapuri Heights Cottages fit the bill perfectly. A comfortable retreat with a wonderful view was made even more special by the staff who saw... More

My wife and I have just returned from an amazing three week trip to Bhutan and Nepal and the and one of the highlights of the trip was the stay in Kathmandu prior to leaving for Bhutan and then again our last evening in Nepal before returning to the UK. We returned to Shivapuri Heights Cottage as there is no... More

We really enjoyed our stay at Shivapur Heights Cottages. We stayed just two nights in the Bouganevilla cottage. We had the whole cottage for our family which meant we were really able to relax well. We live in Kathmandu and are pleased that we now know about this place and will return. The food was excellent - great home cooked... More

With a new cottage built at a higher level on the hillside this collection of Cottages occupies a wonderful and peaceful setting on the slopes of... More

Even though the Cottages are not high in the Shivapuri - and therefore, easy to reach - the views are amazing. I've been there by beautiful weather, or when threatening clouds would gather, I have once seen a heavy storm then the rainbow... in all situations, the location is just stunning. The rooms and common spaces are very elegant, and... More

It's impossible not to love everything about Shivapuri Heights. The cottages are beautiful, the common spaces amazing, JB's food off the charts, the staff super helpful, and the views to die for. There are two main buildings separated by a 2 minute walk up or downhill and the grounds are immaculately clean and well-designed. One downside of staying here is... More

We arrived at Shivapuri without much of a plan for our travels in Nepal. Within two days Steve and Neeru had organised a trip of a lifetime for us, despite such short notice. The stay there was our last in a 12 month travelling adventure and by staying with them, we certainly saved the best for last. The staff epitomise... More
