a day, naturally. We have a 24 hour room
service and a laundry service.
DINING
Our chefs are amongst the best and specialise
in Indian, Contimental and Chinese cuisine
- as well as fine Nepali dishes, of course.
We've an excellent choice of fare for
vegetarians and vegans alike and are always
happy to prepare meals for visitors requiring
a more specialised diet with a little
advance notice. The Barahi Bar also serves
a good selection of wines, spirits and
cocktails as well as non-alcoholic options.
Guests can have food served to their room.
As well as our restaurant, diners
have the option of eating al fresco, in
the grounds or by the pool. We also provide
packed meals for picnics, treks and other
expeditions and can host as well as cater
for parties and other functions with up
to 100 guests.
ROOMS
All rooms at the Barahi come with private
en-suite bathrooms. Each includes a bath
tub and shower as well as other modern
facilities such as a 240 / 111 Volt shaving
socket.
We've piping hot water on tap 24 / 7 so
you can bathe whenever it suits you. As
with the rest of the hotel, you'll find
our bathrooms are kept scrupulously clean.
SWIMMING POOL
Guests at the Hotel Barahi can enjoy
all the benefits of our new swimming pool
- whether it's to take a dip in the clean
warm water or catch a little sun; or simply
to relax with a drink and a bite to eat
in good company. Other visitors are also
welcome to use the pool at the Barahi
(although there is a small charge for
visitors who are not accompanied by one
of our guests).
GARDEN
The warm sub-tropical climate here in
the heart of the Himalayas is ideal for
many rare species of plants and flowers
- one of the specialities the Himalayan
Kingdom of Nepal is noted for. There is
plenty of space to sit out in comfort
and take in the Annapurna range bordering
the Pokhara Valley. There are numerous
quiet spots to choose from and our waiters
are always within easy reach if you'd
like something to eat or drink. With an
abundance of plant life in the hotel gardens,
we attract a rich array of birds and other
species.
CONFERANCE
We
have the facilities to host conferences
and other events for up to 100 people
at a time. We can provide catering, transfers
by coach, car hire and other forms of
transport & parking, business facilities
such as phone, fax, email etc. as well
as accommodation. Facilities include a
PA system, videos & TVs, OHPs, flipcharts
etc.
We offer attractive rates for large
group bookings. Please Contact us for
further details.
MEDICAL
Here at the Hotel Barahi we have a fully
qualified Doctor on call 24 hours a day,
7 days a week in the event that any of
our guests needs medical attention. (We
are also located close to a modern and
well equipped private hospital.)
We
are also able to assist any guests who
find themselves in difficulties whilst
out trekking or peak climbing by helping
arrange for a mountain rescue helicopter
to evacuate a patient to safety. For information
on how to avoid AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness)
when travelling to high altitudes, please
ask at our Travel and Activities Desk.
Of course it is rare for our guests to
require medical assistance or rescue from
the mountains but we believe it is important
to have the right procedures in place
- to ensure that if any emergency does
take place, the appropriate steps are
taken to bring a swift and successful
outcome.
SECURITY
Although the theft of items from guests
at the Hotel Barahi is almost unheard
of, we do recommend that any valuables
are stored securely in one of the hotel
safes (for which there is no charge) on
the basis that prevention is better than
cure. We also provide free secure storage
for guests' luggage. Our staff at Reception
will be happy to assist.
For the peace of mind of our guests we
provide on site security round the clock
- both at the main gate and with regular
patrols of the grounds. Of course, our
security staff are not purely here to
safeguard our guests - they are equally
happy to share their local knowledge about
tours etc or provide directions to find
your way around Pokhara. And if you are
visiting with youngsters, we can arrange
for a first rate babysitter to look after
them whilst you take a break.
