Food

We will feed you with love and care in our dining hall – a separate building within the retreat center. There are chairs and tables that host comfortably up to 30 people. There’s a dining space at the rooftop of our restaurant for you to enjoy the breathtaking views. You can also enjoy your meals in the garden. We would like to emphasize that we have been catering travelers for many years so the kitchen as well as the restaurant are 100% clean and hygienic. Our kitchen is open and attached to the canteen (you can always see what’s going on). All food is served buffet-style. There is always water, tea and seasonal fruits in the dining hall for you to snack on. There is air conditioning in our canteen and we decided to place a TV in the restaurant in case you want to catch the news with your tea or coffee.

We prepare healthy, fresh meals from ingredients from an organic local farm in a nearby village. We order fresh vegetables directly from the farmers.  All meals are vegetarian as we live by the yogic code of ahimsa, non-violence. Vegetarianism is believed to be the most beneficial system of nutrition. For the owners, teachers and staff it is important to cultivate friendly, familiar environment filled with respect and trust – and they will love to share meals with their guests, with you. ​

We aim for meals with a great nutritious value. Our chefs’ goal is to provide sattvic meals – food to bring calmness, peace and good health according to Ayurveda. We’ll provide vitamin-rich, protein filled meals for your body’s regeneration, calcium for strong bone structure, clean carbohydrates for energy requirements… all you will need for a balanced stay with us. ​

We are able to accommodate your wishes and special diets. Just get in touch and let us know. We want to make your soul as well as your tummy happy :)


Accommodation

Our location offers the best you can hope for. We are located at the foothills in Chandragiri, a 30 minute drive from Thamel.
We sit cosily between two hills at 2200 meters above sea level in Chandragiri Municipality. Our location guarantees you peace and silence, stunning views of Kathmandu valley as well as the Himalayan ranges of Annapurna and other mountains.
What is quite incredible is that after only 3-4 hours of hiking you can see the Mount Everest clearly!


Especially in the winter season, when the Kathmandu valley is fully covered with clouds, we gaze down from the resort feeling like we share the skies with Gods. 

We offer 13 rooms of different categories and price range so you can always find a moment of calm with us. All rooms have a bathroom attached with hot and cold water (and a western type toilet), a balcony with mountains and Annapurna range views, access to wifi and A/C. There’s a cupboard, a table with a chair and a mirror in each room.

"Kriti and Biren try to make your stay unforgettable. In my case, they succeeded.
Apart from the good yogaclass, the room was excellent. Clean, always a nice hot shower and a wonderful mattress. And let's not forget the stunning view with beautiful sunrise.
So, thank you Biren and Kriti.
I followed a life changing experience with the singing bowl course. The teacher Shanta is amazing. His lessons will give you a lot of confidence and wisdom.
And the massage: the best you can get in Nepal! Susmu is the sunshine lady of Mandala☀️So, thanks a lot Shanta and Susmu! And of course also all employees.
Last but not least: Tommy!!!💛🐶"
