"Very good value for money in the Lumbini Bazaar. Basic but lovely touches such as the owner brought us incense sticks in the evening to get rid of mosquitoes. The shower in the un-attached bathroom worked well and the hotel was near many eateries for breakfast and food. Stayed for 2 nights which was enough time to see the Lumbini attractions, and the owner helped us with organising our onward travel. Only downside was hard beds - which is to be expected in Nepal! "

"I enjoyed my stay at Ananda Inn. The location is great and it is right in front of the gate of Maya Devi Temple. I took bus from Pokhara and the bus stopped right in front of the way to the hotel. The restaurant served Nasi Goreng ala Indonesia which suprised me and many other choices with reasonable prices. The staff are friendly and they even provided me with a breakfast box because I had to check out very early in the morning and the staff accompanied me to the bus stop just to ensure I will be fine walking that early. There are not many choices of hotels in Lumbini and Ananda Inn is definately a highly recommended hotel in Lumbini."
