"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful Stay Surrounded by Nature at River Bank Jungle Resort
We had a truly memorable stay at River Bank Jungle Resort, located in Chitwan, Bharatpur, Patihani-22. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was exceptional.
We were warmly welcomed with a complimentary fruit basket, and to our surprise, we also received a complimentary room upgrade from a Deluxe Room to a Super Deluxe Room. The room was beautiful, spacious, very comfortable, and well-maintained, making our stay even more relaxing.
The resort staff paid great attention to our special request and arranged a traditional cultural dance and singing program for us. It was an amazing experience—we even got the chance to wear traditional cultural attire and dance along, which made the evening truly special and unforgettable.
The property is peaceful, surrounded by nature, and perfect for anyone looking to relax and create meaningful memories in Chitwan. Every detail, from service to ambiance, was thoughtfully handled.
We created beautiful memories at this resort, and we will definitely revisit River Bank Jungle Resort on our next trip to Chitwan. Highly recommended for couples, families, and anyone looking for a unique jungle-side experience with excellent hospitality."
"Amazing hotel with exceptional customer service. Every member of staff was attentive and went beyond to ensure my stay was perfect. The warm welcome from check in to the unexpected team check out will stay with me and I will most definitely stay there again when visiting Chitwan in the near future. Special mention for Manager Ashok and F&B staff Stuti and Anup.

"Overpriced, overhyped, and overwhelmingly disappointing
I genuinely don’t understand the rave reviews about Sapana Village Lodge, my stay felt more like a lesson in what not to do in hospitality. Sure, the view is lovely… but you can’t sleep on a view. The room? Dim, musty, and crawling with ants quite the “rustic charm,” if that’s what you’re into. The bathroom felt like it hadn’t seen a proper cleaning in ages, and the linens had a damp, moldy smell that made me question everything.
The service was painfully slow and disorganized. I waited over an hour for dinner and when it finally arrived, it was bland, lukewarm, and overpriced. The staff were friendly, but the whole place felt like it was running on guesswork and good intentions rather than actual management.
What really pushed me over the edge was the outrageous pricing for activities. They charge a premium for basic excursions like canoe rides and jungle walks and we later found the exact same experiences literally down the road for half the price, with better guides and no pushy upselling. It felt like they were taking advantage of guests who didn’t know any better.
If you’re into paying luxury prices for a mediocre lodge and a side of frustration, then maybe this is the place for you. "
"The best things about this resort are the location and the staff. Sabrina on reception is always smiling and cheerful. She has "magic fingers" which repairs things. Sitaram Streatham is an outstanding waiter in the restaurant. He is very attentive but also very knowledgeable about local wildlife. Lovely gentle mannered man. Our room was very comfortable. The bathroom is a wet room so i struggle with wet floors but i bought a floor squeegy in town for just over £1 and that helped a lot. The food in the restaurant is very good and reasonably priced. Beer prices are good too. "
