September Weather

Our most beautiful time of the year is always September. We're gifted with the bluest of skies, and the balmiest days. It's a surprise to many that this is so, given that we are known for being a summer destination, but the humidity can be a bit overwhelming for those used to drier climates. These photos were taken from the Kitchen and Dining Room Area, and as you can see, the whole lodge is surrounded by the giant rolling hills that Gorkha is famous for.

Nepali New Years

Nepali New Year, known as Baishak, marks the start of a fresh calendar year in Nepal. It’s a time of renewal, celebration, and togetherness, with families and communities coming together to enjoy traditional rituals, festive meals, and moments of reflection. At Summit River Lodge, we celebrate Baishak with riverside festivities, relaxed brunches, and special packages to welcome the year ahead in comfort and style. If you're looking for a relaxing getaway, and a quiet place to spend with family, call us at 9801151166 to make your reservation.

but for life not to escape us.

Exterior of the Villa Suite

The Villa Suite

Spread across approx. 1,300 square feet of private space, the Villa Suite offers the comfort and privacy of a home away from home. Designed for a small family or a group of up to four guests, the villa features two private bedrooms, a shared living space, and a kitchenette, giving your family or group room to settle in, slow down, and spend time together.

Banbas

Banbas is a cozy yet spacious private retreat perched at the top of the main property, ideal for couples seeking a quiet escape.

Slightly larger than our Gaun Ghar, it features a comfortable king-size bed and a warm, intimate setting that makes it perfect for relaxation and uninterrupted time together.

Standard

Suitable for couples and families.  We recommend guests travel in groups so they can occupy a whole wing of 4-5 rooms to give you ample privacy. These rooms have twin queen size beds.

“A Village Within A Village”

Our property is shaped like a horse-shoe, and within it, are small forests we have maintained. Most of the flora and fauna are local to the region, and grow wild in the summer time. Our rooms are spread across 20,000 square feet of nature, and it is this charming layout that has so many locals coming back time and time again.

Worth every penny

The place is amazingly beautiful. I was told that the place was built under the theme “hide” so is 30 minutes walk from the main highway. The rooms are also built on the same theme so are placed in good distance from each other. The place is very peaceful. They do not serve food in rooms but there are good options available at the bar and restaurant. Rooms are minimal and comfortable. Worth every penny.

Perfect for Family Getaway!

We spent 2 night with our kids. We had a amazing time at Summit River Lodge. Lodge itself is surrounded by greenery and has its own kind of beauty but what makes more special is Staff and environment there. All staffs are really hardworking to make guests happy and comfortable and we appreciate it so much. My son still misses swimming and yummy meatballs.
Perfect for family getaway!!!
We will be back again!
Thank you

The space is amazing

The place is great. Area is big and they have many rooms. The compound is huge, which includes swimming pool, seperate dining and kitchen. The rooms are clean, neat and tidy. The foods were also really great.
The place is in the other side of the river, so the noise and pollution from the highway is not felt. The space is amazing and the staff are super welcoming.

Great Ambience and Superb Hospitality

We had a very enjoyable two-night stay at Summit River Lodge. We felt very close to nature while there. The hotel blends with nature and is also very eco-friendly. At the same time, it has the amenities to make the stay comfortable. The food was superb and the hospitality was amazing. All the staff members were very friendly and responsive to our needs and made every effort to make our stay comfortable. We were also impressed that the lodge employed many locals and also bought many of the needed produces locally. Thank you.

Great escape from Kathmandu

The Summit River lodge is just a 3 hour drive from Kathmandu enroute to Chitwan/Pokhara close to the village of Kurintar. It offers comfortable accommodation in a semi tropical environment away from the maddening crowd. Great service and food at a reasonable price. Love the swimming pool and a hike to the nearby waterfall is highly recommended. Been here some 6+ times and loved it every time.

We loved the food here

Nothing can compare to the amazing cuisine served here. And you shouldn’t miss a hike to the natural swimming pool and the beach. Love the place.
