a month agoAbsolutely — here’s a warm, natural review you can post: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had such a wonderful and relaxing stay at Rorathang River View Homestay! The location beside the river makes the whole experience so special. 🌿🏞️ The best part was spending the entire evening by the riverside, enjoying a barbecue and bonfire from evening all the way until midnight. 🔥🍖 The peaceful sound of the river, the warmth of the fire, delicious food, and great company made it an unforgettable experience. We truly enjoyed every moment here. If you’re looking for a peaceful place to relax, enjoy nature, and have a memorable evening by the river, I would definitely recommend Rarathang River View Hotel. A beautiful place, wonderful atmosphere, and lovely memories!

4 months agoThe location and rooms of this homestay is really good, as well as the food they serve. The only problem I faced was the behaviour of the head female staff who was overseeing the kitchen as well as the reception area, she was denying simple requests, overall it was manageable. Don't forget to ask for the riverview rooms on the first and second floor for best experience. The higher the better.
