Our Journey
A Legacy of Hospitality Since 1995
Founded with a vision to showcase Pokhara's beauty to the world, Hotel Crown Himalayas began as a modest 12-room lodge overlooking Phewa Lake. Today, we stand as one of Pokhara's premier hospitality destinations, blending modern comforts with authentic Nepalese charm.
Our story is woven into the fabric of Pokhara's tourism history, having hosted adventurers, peace-seekers, and cultural explorers from across the globe for nearly three decades.
