Hotel Happy Land

The host was very good. Property is also nice. Food is good. Host will help you in planning your trip in Chitwan

I was picked up by the owner, Aasish, on a motorcycle! Don’t worry he can arrange a taxi. I thought it was a great way to start my adventure. The property is on the town outskirts. The town is laid out with one long street about 3/4 of a mile stretch. The Southern half is along the river. Two primary roads intersect it. One being the road from Hotel Happy Land. It is about a 15 minute walk. There is only very light traffic and it is mostly quiet since you are facing away from the road. I started with the American style breakfast that was provided each morning. Aaish is a former guide. This was extremely helpful. Depending on the number of guests is based on how much time he can try to share in the local experiences. This maybe not for you but here is what Inwas able to do. First evening walk to the elephant training area. Saw two Rhinos on the property! Great start Next day taking a TukTuk (3 wheel taxi) to a canoe ride followed by a jungle walk and a visit to the elephant breeding area. Second half of the day a Jeep safari. Saw wild boar, peacocks, alligator sanctuary, monkeys, rhinos, their famous wild elephant, and the most spectacular bear encounter that I will never forget. Next day I did a 4 hour hike along the other intersecting road that leads back to the elephant sanctuary. Flowing day rented a bike for a full day and headed North and experienced the local life along the roadsides. The following day went back out for another 4 hour road hike the opposite direction. I had booked 3 nights and was supposed to go to another place but felt the personal service was outstanding. So, I stayed another 3 nights. This afternoon I am jumping back on the motorcycle and heading about 15km to the lakes for some more hiking. Whether you are active to walk or not I am sure that Aaish can make your stay here warm and enjoyable. Namaste

Everything was great!

Atmosphere

The Hotel is close to the park so you can see wild animals sometimes (although there is absolutely no risk). The manager of the hotel is particularly nice and has a very good knowledge of the park (he was a guide in the park for a long time). He will help you book your tour and even provide free driving service to the different activities. He is always nice and his team as well. It is really a super place to visit the national park.

The manager was too good. Good insight into the National park. The jungle activities are too good. You will enjoy the local taste. The hotel is situated within walking distance from the bus park and a little off from the crowd. - Good National park information. Humble owner, Thank you for everything. Had a great time.

Comfortable stay with cosy atmosphere, the owner was very helpful. We experience perfect jungle activities as the owner himself was a active jungle tour guide earlier. Food was awesome too.

Best place to stay in Chitwan. The hotel is very clean and the hotel manager is the nicest guy on earth. He helped to organize the tourist activities in Chitwan with really good jungle guides for us as well our ongoing travelling to India. He even brought us to the bus station and waited with us. Thanks again!

Excellent location to stay for exploring Chitwan’s adventures. Hotel rooms are clean, comfortable and reasonably priced. Beautiful garden with campfire facility. Staffs are polite and helpful. Owner is so welcoming and friendly as well. I will definitely stay again when I visit there.

It is a place where time stops. You will be heartwarmingly welcomed with friendly and helpful staff, which will cook delicious home made food for you and prepare clean and tidy room. Aashish, the manager, will make sure that all your activities(canoe ride, jungle safari and even your trip back home) go smoothly and on time. On top of that you will get extraordinarily view from both, your window and balcony, which will make your heart melt and fall in love with this place.
