The perfect place to stay in Chomrong for so many reasons. First - it doesnt matter which direction you're going in, the location is ideal - if you're on the way to ABC then it means you cut out walking through Chomrong in the morning and make your days start extremely efficient. If you're coming back from ABC and you've just had to contend with the billion steps up to Chomrong then you'll weep with relief at seeing this as almost the first place you come back to. For us that was after dark having set off from MBC, up to ABC and back to Chomrong and my god was it an amazing sight. Second - whether you're arriving for the first time or returning having been before you will be greeted as a friend and made to feel as though you're part of the furnature and that can make all the difference. Finally and I don't think it needs repeating from previous reviews but I will anyway - the food here is unreal. The chocolate cake is an obvious winner which a reputation that rightly preceeds it, but the other gems here are the club burger which is ridiculously delicious, and the buff momos which took top place on our list. No really - my partner and I have a bit of a momo obsession and have enjoyed compiling a list of the best momos during our 3 months in Nepal. Chomrong cottages buff momos jumped to the top of the list (narrowly beating Mo 2s in Pokhara but do try these also...). The rooms are lovely and warm and cosy and the shower hot. A no brainer for any stay...
Read moreThe reviews on TripAdvisor and the mention in the lonely planet trekking guide were not joking. After descending from ABC to Chhomrong in one day (16.1 miles and nine hours ) we stopped here as I had heard good things about it. It is lovely. We were greeted by a friendly and helpful family who spoke English, genuine, charming which put us at ease. After spending three nights sharing a shower with twenty other people over an open toilet we secured an ensuite room The beds comfortable, the showers hot with tons of pressure, we knew that we had made the right choice. Then came the food! ACAP have done an amazing job of standardising a menu across the Annapurna range where you can be guaranteed choice and a good meal anywhere. Chhomrong cottage goes one further This was the third time on the trek I had tried pizza. It struck me that it specified 'Italian pizza'. With a thin home made base and sauce with a lovely blend of yak cheese on the top, sprinkled with Italian herbs and a small amount of chili, this was an amazing pizza, served with fries made from home grown potatoes. Despite being full I had to try the chocolate cake and I'm glad I did, dark, rich and the perfect end to a meal. My wife had a potato curry which again was the best she had tasted despite eating dal bhat every day across the region. All I can say is if you are in...
Read moreI honestly could not say enough good things about this place. Whether you’re on the way up or coming back down (or both). This accommodation will nourish you from the tips of your toes to the top of your head. The view from the rooms is insane and I’ve actually never stayed in accommodation with half as spectacular view. You’re literally sleeping in the mountains, so you can imagine how breathtaking it might be. Then there is Sueshila (I’m probably spelling that incorrectly). Her, and her husband welcomed us and feed us the most delicious food. They are seriously the nicest people and we’re the cherry on top of an amazing trip. Everything is good here. We stayed and extra night because of the food, view, hospitality, people watching (hikers moving back and forth), hot showers and A class vibes. I recommend multiple nights. You will not be sad you stopped in at...
