- Most premium: NPR 2,520/night

Money-saving tips
- Stay 3+ nights — many hosts offer weekly rates that are 10-20% off the per-night rack rate; just ask in the chat.
- Avoid Dashain/Tihar peaks (Oct-Nov festival weekends) — domestic demand pushes prices up; weekdays the same week are usually 30% cheaper.
- Pay in cash on arrival — most hosts prefer NPR cash or eSewa/Khalti; that often saves the 3% card-network fee.
- Monsoon (Jun-Sep) sees the lowest rates of the year, but mountain views are clouded — fine for city stays, less so for Nagarkot/Pokhara.
- Negotiate longer stays — a polite request for 7+ nights often unlocks an extra 5-10% off; hosts prefer guaranteed occupancy over higher per-night rates.
