Siddharth Riverside Resort, located in Chumlingtar, Chitwan, along the Prithvi Highway, has achieved a historic hat-trick by winning the prestigious South Asian Travel Awards (SATA) for the third consecutive year.

Operated under the umbrella of Siddharth Hospitality, the resort secured the coveted award for “Nepal’s Leading Riverfront Hotel/Resort” for 2026.

Transforming Chumlingtar into a Premier Holiday Destination

Positioned midway between Kathmandu and Pokhara, Chumlingtar’s identity has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years. Once regarded primarily as a temporary pitstop for weary travelers on long highway journeys, Chumlingtar is now evolving into a full-fledged holiday destination where families, friends, and nature enthusiasts gather to relax and unwind.

World-Class Amenities and Services

The resort’s key highlights include scenic views of the Trishuli River, sprawling green gardens, and a tranquil natural atmosphere. Guests at Siddharth Riverside Resort can enjoy:

Swimming Pool & Outdoor Jacuzzi: Open-air relaxation spaces tailored for leisure.

Dining Destinations: ‘Maya All Day Dining’ alongside a dedicated Riverfront Restaurant.

Event & Conference Halls: Fully equipped facilities for corporate meetings, celebrations, and gatherings.

Luxury Accommodations: Well-appointed rooms engineered for comfort and quiet luxury.

Redefining Highway Hospitality

According to Krishna Neupane, Chief Executive Officer of Siddharth Business Group, the resort was deliberately developed to transcend the conventional concept of a roadside resting point.

“Chumlingtar, situated almost exactly between Kathmandu and Pokhara, is a naturally beautiful destination in itself. We have integrated this stunning riverfront environment with spacious gardens, a swimming pool, an outdoor jacuzzi, Maya All Day Dining, event halls, and premium accommodations to deliver a complete hospitality experience,” said Neupane. “Our objective is not merely to offer a place to spend a few hours during transit, but to establish Siddharth Riverside Resort as a standalone destination where guests specifically travel to spend their holidays.”

Neupane added that earning international recognition for three consecutive years serves as strong encouragement to maintain high service standards and further strengthen their commitment to world-class hospitality.

Strategic Location with Regional Appeal

Situated directly on the primary highway connecting Kathmandu, Pokhara, and Chitwan, the resort offers exceptional accessibility. However, its true appeal lies in its power as a destination in its own right—where visitors routinely choose to stay for one or more nights rather than passing through.

The South Asian Travel Awards (SATA) is one of the region’s most respected accolades in the tourism and hospitality sectors. Winning the title of Leading Riverfront Hotel/Resort for three consecutive years elevates the reputation of Siddharth Riverside Resort beyond national borders, putting Nepalese riverfront tourism on the South Asian map.
