Lumbini Five Elements Hotel

The room , food and location was excellent . Staff were very supportive .

The room and it location

This is a lovely hotel with spacious rooms including a jacuzzi bath, which was quite the luxury after the very bumpy bus journeys across Nepal. The staff were very friendly and helpful, particularly Umesh who helped me get my bus to Chitwan and even dropped me at the bus stop at 6am. There isn't so much for tourists in the way of restaurants in Lumbini so I ate in the hotel restaurant both nights and the biryani was possibly the best I've ever tasted. Good breakfast and they even made me a packed brekkie for my early morning travels, which I was very grateful for. Lumbini is less than a ten minute walk from the hotel good location wise.

The restaurant was a little bright in the evening and could benefit from lower lighting and a bit more ambience. Perhaps some music.

Room was spacious with great a/c and WiFi. Breakfast was cooked a la carte the day we were there and plentiful. Despite being down a gravel road, it was very well located to access Gate 5 & Maya Devi temple and nearby restaurants.

Front desk staff wasn’t overly welcoming or friendly. Credit card machine wouldn’t work upon checkout, despite trying 4 cards. We were rushed to get to the airport and staff wanted us to go to the ATM. At the end, they let us leave and we got cash to send back with the taxi driver. Very unexpected cash expense, but it worked out.

Nice hotel, very clean and neat. Staff was friendly and the view from higher floors was great

They served breakfast without asking for preferences, I am a vegetarian and got served meat. I think especially in a place like lumbini they should make sure about that. Food was okay.

The room was nice. In a quiet part of town with a bit of a walk to restaurants and the Maya Devi Temple etc.

The spa jets - only 1 of 8 jets on the base of the bath worked. When the power went out, the spa didn't work. The breakfast was Indian style, with no choices. I would say not worth the money I spent. I've stayed at better for a cheaper price.

The hotel is a walkable distance from the main gate for the Mahadeva Temple. The staff was very friendly and the rooms clean and confortable. I had a great stay with them and I believe it´s the best hotel in the area.

Hot water is comfortable. Bathroom is clean. AC is working.

Staff didn’t really know about the hotel service. Since the hotel credit card system didn’t work, I had to pay in cash.
