This hotel is now foreclosed by the bank

Mothballed, no elevator or staff. Kitchen and bar shuttered. I did not register and found somewhere else. To his credit the manager gave me a full cash refund. Pity, as I have stayed there several times and if it reopens I would reconsider

The hotel is not as advertised on Expedia. We got there and learnt that breakfast was not included, even though it says that it is on Expedia. We also saw that they have closed their kitchen and turned the bar into an art sale space so there isn’t a cozy place to hang out or eat at the hotel. We got a junior suite so that we could take a bath after a long trek around the Annapurna circuit but the tub stopper didn’t work so it wouldn’t hold water. The elevator was also out of commission. On the positive side, the staff were friendly and the room was clean. Overall, this is more of a glorified tea house rather than a hotel and definitely not worth over $100USD per night

Good hotel with lake views but ok service

The hotel’s location was its biggest selling point. It immediately overlooked the lake and had nice views. The kitchen staff were not great and got our food orders wrong twice.

Our payment was supposed to be refunded and still hasn’t been processed even after more than a month. The elevator did not work and our rooms were on the fifth floor. There are no rooms below the third floor. It turns out that they had a generator that could operate the elevator, and just didn’t want to turn it on. my room was fine and the decoration was cute, but my friend’s room had mosquitoes, and the screen was torn in the windows. There is no spa on the property. We were told that the power was out for the whole neighborhood, but the restaurant next-door had power, so that’s hard to believe. The front desk staff were very kind and as helpful as they could be under the circumstances. The bed was comfortable and the shower was fine with hot water. They provided drinkable water. It really was the elevator issue that made this impossible. I am unable to do that many staircases on a good day, and certainly not for vacation, so we had to move hotels.

Staff were lovely and so helpful. That said, Spa was closed for repairs. Bath tub leaked from underneath and pooled in bathroom floor. Elevator didn't work half the time. Breakfast was a very limited ala carte menu. Bar didnt have proper change.

Kudos to all the staff here, especially Mr Sunil the manager, Sushmita & Pushpa at reception, Sharmila and also Shyam who served us at breakfast (awesome brekkie here) with warmth and smiles during our week stay. They are professional and always proactive, we even got an upgrade into the Honeymoon suite and deluxe room and we felt completely safe and immensely enjoyed this quaint, beautiful hotel with the lovely rooftop views of the lake and mountains within a strategic location. Only the hot water was a bit fiddly but no other complaints. Previously we stayed at Temple Tree but the experience this time at Glacier was far superior. Keep it up!

Oasis in Pokhara

Glacier was wonderful! From the location (perfect! Lakeside with a mountain view, walkable to restaurants and shop) to cleanliness to the kindness of the staff, management, and owner, I could not have asked for a better stay. My original trekking booking fell through, and Rajendra helped me quickly and easily arrange a new booking. A/C, wifi, and water pressure were all great too!

Amazing views!

I think this is the best spot in Pokhara! A few blocks away from the most touristy area, amazing views, the rooftop is fantastic, the service is great. Wifi mainly only worked downstairs - we had a 5th floor room. But, hey... we could all do with a little less phone time.

We booked one of the hotel's trips to see the sunrise and fishtail mountain. The owner of the hotel actually took us and we saw the Annapurna mountain range at sunrise where normal tourists do not go. It was a fabulous trip and the manager could not do enough for us.

Unique, comfortable stay before and after trek

We stayed at Glacier before and after our trek. We had a great experience with the room, the restaurant/bar, the location, and last but not least, the staff. The hotel and the rooms have a unique design. Everything seems new and clean. We got a free upgrade, which meant our room came with a jet bathtub. The restaurant/bar were great for the included breakfast, a happy hour drink and snack, and dinner (yes, we spent a lot of time there). The location was in the middle of the main drag by the lake, near to many shops and restaurants. Finally, the staff at the front desk, in the restaurant/bar, and in housekeeping were all superb. Overall, a great value.

Comfortable and contemporary. It gets 90% of the way to western boutique hotel standards, which for Nepal is outstanding. Great decor, friendly staff, modern facilities. We rejuvenated here. The bellhops and waitstaff can be a little overattentive, and the bathrooms need a proper shower curtain and a vent rather than just a huge window. Shower was western and piping hot. Restaurant & free breakfast are good but nothing amazing. Lakeside rooms have a great view but are noisier until traffic dies down around 10pm.

Beautiful Hotel with totally helpful, happy staff

We booked this hotel over Christmas 2017 as we wanted comfort away from home!! The owner and their staff did EVERYTHING they could to help us celebrate our holiday! Although the price was considerably higher than other hotels in the area, it is beautifully built with natural stone and timber, laid out well, the rooms have balconies (We could see the Snow Capped mountains a few times), had a huge jacuzzi tub which was a real treat after days of hiking or touring around the many sites... Great Quiet location but step out the front door (where there is an awesome Cafe with great coffee - they would even bring to our room) and there are restaurants and shops and across from the Lake! Great view and very nice breakfast - made to order (and Buffet) and the Staff were amazing and ALWAYS there for our every need. For our holiday we made the best choice.... this staff will do anything to accommodate your every need and the location was perfect! You will not be disappointed! Thanks Glacier Hotel for making our Christmas special.

Room, view, and staff were fantastic. Happy and quick to response to any requests we made. Breakfasts were delicious! After some very long days in the hectic markets, coming to Glacier at the end of the day was such a treat. A little bit loud but it is on the main street. Bed was SO comfortable it was hard to get out of it!
