A Serene Escape at the Edge of Shivapuri: Royal Villa Resort Leaving behind Kathmandu’s bustle, the winding road through Shivapuri forest leads to Royal Villa Resort, a peaceful haven nestled in nature and community. As birds chirp and a stream whispers nearby, the resort emerges, earthy yellow and exposed brick facades with mud red sloped roofs, gracefully aligned with the terrain and local Tamang settlement. Thoughtful touches greet you, ample parking, a playful children’s zone, and inviting grand flagstone steps, homely reception and dining area with expansive views of mature trees. The resort unfolds in terraces: lawns, campfire spots, tent zones, selfie corners, all blending naturally into the hillside. At its heart lies a seminar hall (great for up to 50 people) beside a three-story block. A water cascade near a secondary hall adds calm. Higher still, the rooftop dining area offers breathtaking views of the Kathmandu Valley, especially magical at dusk. Private villa blocks tucked in the southwest offer quiet seclusion, embraced by the hillside. The staff’s warmth and the diverse, well-prepared meals during our 6-day youth camp made the experience even more memorable. A highlight? A soulful Damphu performance by local Tamang women: proof that tourism and tradition can coexist. There are areas to improve: weekends get crowded, impacting events and peace; mobile networks are spotty, and Wi-Fi could be better. But these are minor trade-offs for such a rich, immersive stay. From June 27 to July 2, 2025, Royal Villa gave us more than rest, it offered an experience. Where forest meets village, where children laugh, and where the city below feels far,...

Read moreExtremely Disappointed Unprofessional Staff and No Hospitality
I had a very unpleasant experience at royal villa resort. I was told in advance that I could use the facilities from 11:00 AM, but when I arrived, I was suddenly told that check-in starts at 12:00 PM. Even worse, I had to wait until 1:45 PM to finally enter. There was no apology, no explanation, and no sense of responsibility from the staff.
During the wait, i had to order drink, even though my course included them as a welcome drink. I was cold and asked to wait inside, but was told the room hadn't been cleaned and I couldn’t go in. I have asked for cabin but staff repeated the same phase “room hadn’t been cleaned” Even after they said someone would come to ask , no one ever did.
Eventually, I was given a small discount but money isn’t everything. My time was wasted, and my entire plan for the day was ruined. The experience was stressful and disappointing. This resort showed no sense of hospitality or professionalism. I felt ignored, disrespected, and frustrated. I will never return, and I do not recommend this place to...
