This lovely safari hide-away is located by the river, all lodges have a terrace with views into nature. The lodge organises safaris by jeep and boat, we saw rhinos, crocs and elefant, numerous birds, and took a sundowner by the river. Lodges are confortable, indoor and outdoor shower, great bathrooms. Great food and wonderful friendly service everywhere. Wonderful place!

A truly wonderful & special way to explore Chitwan. The property itself is beautifully laid out with villas looking directly out over the Rapti River and into the Chitwan Reserve. But what really made the stay so special was the staff and their incredible Nepali hospitality. From the amazing Naturalists to the wonderful F&B staff. A call out in particular to Sanjay - who went out of his way to make our meals (& coffees) exceptional - and Santosh whose passion for his home and habitat really made our safari very meaningful.

After a back breaking journey of 7 hours from Kathmandu through bad road and traffic jam we landed at this property and it was definitely worth the trouble. I am a big fan of Taj properties and the hotel met all my expectations. The villas are wonderful, spacious, clean with huge a bathroom. Food was good. Service was great with all staff always attentive to guest's need. Best part of the hotel is it's location. The flowing water of the Rapti river and the Chitwan national park at the other end is truly amazing. We went on a safari ride of about four hours, spotted few animals. The evening boat ride with watching the sunset on the river bank with tea and snacks was very enjoyable. Thanks to the entire team of Meghauli Serai for making our stay so memorable. Special thanks to Aakruti, Sandeep, Sanjay, Mr Amit and tour guide Asbin. We would love to stay again at this hotel.…

it's about 45 min. from the airport along a road lined with colorful houses, beautiful fields, etc. The resort is in a quiet and tranquil location; faces the river. Each unit has a small and private pool. Rooms is large with a very big bathroom. Overall pretty modern mixed with local antiques and art work. Breakfast buffet is not particularly extensive and not really western taste oriented (which is understandable) however, you can special order things. Huge swimming pool with lots of lounge chairs - in the shade or sun. Most exciting were the small boat trips over to the island where we were met by guides (max of 6 to a vehicle) who drove us through the jungle (absolutely wonderful). Never saw a tiger, but quite a few rhinos which was incredibly exciting (one crossed the river and took its time). overall lovely scenery. Our guide, Asbin, was very informative and spoke very good English.…

A truly 5-star experience: 1) First class property all-round. Tranquil and luxurious. 2) Great room - comfy bed, loads of space, huge bathroom with great shower and separate bathtub. Private plunge pool was great too. 3) The staff are friendly and attentive - always smiling and ready to help. 4) The food is excellent - just be aware of the set meals with multiple courses - sometimes too much food. 5) The main pool is stunning, with a view out over the river (we even saw elephants from the pool one day). 6) The safaris (jeep, boat and foot) were excellent. The guides (all from the local area) are highly knowledgeable, and the whole experience was amazing, especially for the kids.

The resort is very comfortable with a staff that is incredibly nice and helpful all along the way. Our safari guide, Buddhi, was knowledgeable and engaging at all times. His excitement to show us the amazing wild animals of Chitwan was infectious! We loved every minute of it.

We could not have had a more welcoming, wonderful experience. From the rooms to the staff everything was great. Our guide for our entire stay Buddhi was extremely kind and knowledgeable. We saw 5 Rhinos and one Bengal Tiger while on a safari tour, multiple Crocodile and a Rhino on the canoe tour. Our last evenings dinner with local dancers was fantastic. With our bartenders Robin & Rabin and our waiter Sanjay we couldn’t have asked for more. We highly recommend staying here.

I would absolutely suggest anyone reading this and looking for a peaceful stay in Chitwan to book this without a doubt. The hospitality and warmth we received at Meghauli Serai was beyond comparable. Their manager Vishal took person care of us while coordinating exact time of our arrival for first of many surprises they had planned. Sanjay and Pabita took our meals too seriously and made sure not just our bellies but our hearts were full as well. Buddhi took us for the safari with more than half a dozen Rhinos. I would 100/100 recommend a stay here as it is more than just a stay, it is an experience. They plan surprises all throughout your stay and no time here seemed enough. Hope you get to experience what we did.
