Hotel Overview

Situated inside the serene Gokarna Protected Forest yet only 10 kilometers from Kathmandu city and Tribhuvan International Airport the Gokarna Forest Resort is situated on what was historically the private royal hunting ground of the erstwhile Kings of Nepal.

Steeped in rich historical and cultural significance the main complex of the resort is a remarkable blend of Malla and Rana period architecture. The resort sits within 470 acres of the ancient Gokarna Forest with the majestic Himalayas providing a dramatic backdrop.

Gokarna Forest Resort offers well-furnished exotic superior rooms of high quality. All the rooms are fully equipped with air condition, smoke detectors, electronic safe locks, two-bottles of complimentary mineral water, luxurious herbal bath amenities, and tea/coffee maker. For your relaxation and comfort you have free access to Sauna, Jacuzzi, Gymnasium, Swimming pool and morning yoga.

Some rooms have interior décor that portraits classical Nepali culture in a romantic ambience while others provide breathtaking views of the golf course, the jungle and the sprawling courtyard.

Inspired by the myth, magic and mystery of the once forbidden valley, David Kidd of Gleneagles Golf Developments, pitted his skills against those of nature, creating a golf masterpiece. Spread over 140 acres at 4,550 ft above sea level, the 6,755 yard par 72 course boasts the only bentgrass greens on an 18 hole course in South and South East Asia.

Professionals from across the world have visited Gokarna Forest Resort to experience the divine sprit of the environment and uniqueness of the golf course. The serenity and settings are overwhelming with the only distraction probably being the sighting of a spotted deer, a barking deer or monkeys who wander freely in the vicinity.

Soft cushions of local Bermuda fairways, lush unyielding forests, winding streams, wandering hills and valleys that open to a holy river’s plain. Cynical monkey’s watch your progress. Shy spotted deer peer through the trees. The lofty Himalayas keep your score. A delight for recreational golfers and one of the pleasurable highlights of the professional tour in the region.

An oasis of calm and tranquility, located deep within a protected forest, our luxury spa and health club welcome members and guests with a wide range of facilities and services. Our Adam & Eve and Serenity massage rooms offer a wonderful range of services, from a gentle foot massage to a nourishing and rejuvenating course, emphasising on Ayurvedic treatments with therapeutic care operated by a highly professional staff. Take your leisure time to visit our relaxation rooms and treat yourself with spa Ayurvedic treatments and massages that will leave you completely relaxed and rejuvenated.

We also encourage you to practice your routine exercises at our state-of-the-art gym which is well equipped with treadmills, rowing machines and free weights. The health club offers outstanding facilities, in a discreet and tranquil setting. A personal trainers can also be arranged should you require professional guidance.

Our relaxing indoor swimming pool is one of a kind in Nepal with the temperature regulated. It is the perfect place to cool down and unwind after a jungle walk, a workout at the gym or a long horse ride. The 12 meter long swimming pool is risk free with dim underwater lights and it is only at the Gokarna Forest Resort that you can have a pool party any time of the year. Celebrate any event from birthday parties to social gatherings. We take care of such events at our swimming pool lawn. All types of food and drinks can be served as per your requirements. You can go in your swimsuit and order food while you enjoy both swimming and the party.

Gokarna Forest Resort offers you a perfect natural setting for a dream wedding. The successful completion of the wedding ceremony of famous Bollywood actress Manisha Koirala has reinforced our confidence to host such spectacular wedding events. We provide setting as per your requirements to make that special occasion most memorable. The overwhelming natural beauty of the place, serenity and style, international cuisine and luxurious accommodation options provide the perfect ingredients to ensure your dream wedding is a beautiful reality.

We offer different types of halls as per the requirements of our clients and their programmes. Our latest audio visual facilities, well trained personnel and state-of-art facilities enable you to have a fruitful outcome to your meetings without having to worry about logistics.

I do not think that we have ever had so much care and attention from a travel company, which just goes to show that (in a good way), you do get what you pay for.
