I had a good stay in Everest Guest House at Hallan Chowk , Lakeside , Pokhara. They arranged eveything. The bus came and picked us at 5.00 am. We enjoyed the fewa Lake view on the cable car, peak , scenic views of himalayas , Sunrise , coffee, photos and fresh air . We returned after couple of hours. It was worth going in cable car.

I recommend Everest Guest House , Lakeside , Pokhara. Affordable. Good pricing on all tour sercies.
