I recently had the pleasure of staying at the most delightful guesthouse, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience that exceeded all expectations. From the warm hospitality to the exciting daily excursions, every moment of my 9-day stay at Rakaposhi Amin Guesthouse was filled with joy and relaxation. The guesthouse itself was charming, with cozy rooms and beautifully landscaped surroundings that allowed me to unwind and connect with nature. I found myself waking up to the gentle sounds of birdsong and the rustling of leaves, making for a serene and rejuvenating morning. One of the highlights of my stay was the daily excursion trips arranged by the guesthouse. Each day, I was taken on a journey to explore places of interest, such as trekking to Rakaposhi Basecamp, Gappa Valley, Naltar Valley, nearby villages, natural stadium on the mountain, local gathering events (e.g. wedding reception, Haji’s return, police staff’ retirement gathering and so on). From breathtaking landscapes to cultural landmarks, I was able to immerse myself in the local beauty and traditions. The staff's knowledge about the destinations we visited was impressive, and their passion for sharing the history and stories of each place added an enriching dimension to the experience. Moreover, they were always attentive to our needs, ensuring we had comfortable transportation, snacks for the road, and engaging activities that catered to everyone's interests. Another aspect that stood out was the delectable meals prepared at the guesthouse. Each dish was a culinary delight, made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. It felt like I was being treated to a feast every time, and I eagerly looked forward to every mealtime. In conclusion, my stay at the guesthouse was an exceptional one, filled with warmth, joy, and adventure. I cannot thank the staff enough for their outstanding service, which made me feel pampered and cared for throughout my stay. The daily excursions to nearby places allowed me to create beautiful memories that will stay with me for a lifetime. Without a doubt, I highly recommend this guesthouse to anyone seeking a memorable and heartwarming getaway experience. I cannot wait to...
Read moreMy two friends and I spent two nights in the Rakaposhi Amin Hotel & Restaurant. We needed a foothold for the two-day trek to Rakaposhi Base Camp. We've arrived by taxi from Islamabad, if you leave early you can get there in a day, it's a long journey, but it is doable!!! The Guest house is in the heart of Pissan, a wonderful village at the foot of the Rakaposhi, right below the highest natural Cricket stadium in the world. The rooms are new, clean, and surrounded by a beautiful orchard. The place is quiet and conveniently located for visiting many locations. Abim and Asif's cooking is excellent. They prepare everything freshly with fresh produce, so plan your meals with them a bit in advance!!! We are vegetarians, and we have had no difficulty finding excellent dishes! The welcome's been warm. Abim and Asif, the owners and brothers, have been very helpful in listening to our requests and always finding a solution! Kindness and helpfulness are at home here!!! They have helped us to organize our departure by giving us valuable advice!!!
P.S. Try the excellent tea thyme and rose petal tea!!!
See you soon and thanks again for...
