Our stay at Bardiya Forest Resort was a fantastic experience. The rooms are very nice—clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed for a comfortable stay. What really stood out to me was the staff. They were incredibly humble, welcoming, and always ready to help, making me feel at home throughout my stay. The food at the hotel is also exceptional—local, delicious, fresh, and full of variety. Overall, I had a wonderful time, and I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Bardiya to check out this place.

Good ambience, Perfect rooms, Good hospitality, Good food, Nice garden, very reasonable pricing. I would recommend everyone to select this place when you come to bardiya. Even when you are confused about selecting place for your weekend, highly recommended by me. 🥂🥂

Bardia Forest Resort is ideally located and perfect to explore Bardia National Park. We have done Chitwan and Bardia and Bardia was much better！ Pros - Incredible wildlife and very knowledgeable guide (Jal). He helped us see rhinos, elephants, snakes, and really knows his birds! We even spotted 2 tigers! He has excellent network and will help you make the best of your trip! - personnel is extremely helpful and friendly - very good comfortable cottage with hot shower, AC, wifi in common areas - Proximity to the park entrance (5 min by jeep) Cons - The river safari by rafting was painfully long (from 9 AM to 6 PM), and there is not much to see at the beginning. Half a day (from 3 pm onwards) would have been great, as we started to spot wildlife again with the heat decreasing - Food is good but redundant and very focused on western type of food. With such a diverse local cuisine, it would have been appreciated to eat a bit more local. The chef is excellent and can make the best momos! - Tharu village visit. We didn’t see much of the village or Tharu culture, but we were taken aback to be brought to an “elephant breeding center” where elephants owned by the government are chained. This was not mentioned in the program and not what we expected. A focus on the Tharu culture would have been a great addition to our trip - English communication is minimum: it would be helpful to improve it for foreign guests Recommendations - Please note that Bardia is much more accessible than we expected. By plane, it’s a 2-hour-drive and the resort organized transportation for us - Communicate clearly about your expectations: what animals you want to see, the food you want to eat, your interest in local culture, … and enjoy!

My stay here was incredible. The staff and the owners were friendly and caring. The jungle was beautiful and the guide dai was very knowledgeable and wise. The ambience in the hotel area was calm and the garden was beautiful, calm and well maintained. The food was delicious and it was readily available at my comfort with facilities of pre orders and prompt service and they had wonderful options of dishes. It felt like a paradise in the jungle and I enjoyed every second with wonderful hosts, food and drinks. Will definitely visit again!!
