Hotel Vishuwa

Due north of the Birganj bus park, Hotel Vishuwa is the best hotel in south central Terai. A well-kept pool, drinks, a decent kitchen, and very friendly staff make this hotel almost literally an oasis in a rather unpleasant looking part of Birganj.

Immediately to the north of Hotel Vishuwa is the quaint Vishuwa Mandir, a Buddhist temple, that is worth the 5-minute walk. The more expensive place in town, but with very nice rooms, comfortable beds, and a lovely garden area for badmitten (?), a nice day or two can be spent here, next to the pool.
