Do I need to book accommodation in advance in Nepal?
Yes, it is highly recommended to book accommodation in advance in Nepal, especially during peak season (March to May and September to November), when many popular tourist destinations can get busy. Our team at Mount Elegance Treks and Expedition suggests booking your accommodation at least 2-3 months in advance to ensure availability, especially in popular areas such as:
Kathmandu and Pokhara
Trekking destinations like Annapurna, Everest, and Langtang
* Tourist hubs like Chitwan National Park and Lumbini
Booking in advance ensures that you can secure your preferred accommodation, whether it’s a luxury hotel, boutique guesthouse, or teahouse. Last-minute bookings can sometimes lead to limited options, and you may end up with a less desirable accommodation.
However, if you’re traveling during the off-season (December to February and June to August), you may be able to find last-minute bookings or more flexible accommodation options. Our team can help you with booking your accommodation in advance, and we’ll be happy to provide recommendations based on your preferences and budget.
