The Old Inn

Bandipur, Nepal

The Old Inn is located on the main street in Bandipur, housed in two wings, 150 years old and 250 years old, respectively. Carefully restored, it still retains the original wooden doorways and red bricks of its original Newari architecture, which greatly adds to its character.

Rooms are spread across three floors and vary in size and style with en suite bathrooms. Some rooms have mountain views while others look out over the bazaar.

Food is a mix of continental and Nepali cuisines and can be enjoyed in the dining area opening out onto the bazaar allowing you to interact with other guests or on a terrace at the back which offers a higher level of privacy.

OUR OPINION:

A hotel steeped in history, The Old Inn is located on the main street in Bandipur, but as the street is pedestrianized the property remains a peaceful place to stay. It’s well positioned to explore a rustic old town with lots of small eateries and cafes on a traffic free street bustling with people.

OUR RATING: Simple
