Accommodation on Everest Base Camp Trek

Accommodation on Everest Base Camp Trek

Accommodation is a major trekking concern, especially in remote Himalayan areas like the Everest Region. Are the beds going to be clean? How will the services be provided? What are the amenities like? How much do they cost? Is it warm? There are a lot of questions about accommodation during the trek, and these questions still hold for the Everest Base Camp Trek. 

People assume that the accommodation on Everest Base Camp Trek is basic and offers minimal facilities. They worry that they won’t be able to rest properly during the trek. Firstly, to such people, don’t worry; the accommodations in the EBC trail are not limited to one kind. To be factual, you don’t have to compromise your comfort sleep while trekking. But there is a catch; it depends upon the budget and many other factors. Having said that, let’s explore the types of accommodations available on the trail to base camp. 

Types of Accommodation on Everest Base Camp Trek 

Tea houses, lodges, hotels, and campings are the four significant Everest Base Camp Trek accommodations. While Tea houses and lodges are budget-friendly, hotels are expensive. On the other hand, camping is an unpopular but thrilling accommodation option. Let us explore each of them thoroughly. 

Tea House/Lodge Accommodation on Everest Base Camp

Lodge in EBC Trek

Families run tea houses and lodges on the Everest Base Camp trekking route. The rooms in tea houses are generally shared, meaning you might have to share the room with your fellow trekker. They have a communal dining area where you can interact with other trekkers or the owner to get more cultural insight. It is also more affordable than any other accommodation option. 

The restrooms in them are generally squat-style and shared. However, some tea houses and lodges in the lower region also have Western-style restrooms. You often must pay for extra amenities like a hot shower, Wi-Fi, and electricity in these accommodations. The rooms might or might not be insulated, but the dining area is warm because the owner often burns wood in the middle of the Dining room.

In mid-November  2021, I went on a tour of Everest Base Camp Trek with My Everest Trip.

In the beginning, I contacted Puru, the company’s Manager  I was very satisfied with his interaction and communication with me. I had so many questions and worries about the trip and he was able to guide me and answer all my questions The process on board was smooth and easy. When I arrived in Nepal, I found that everything was ready from the person who picked me up from the airport to the hotel, some equipment for the trip, a complete introductory meeting about what to expect from the trip, All land transport, and even before I left Nepal for a walk.  I’m really glad I made him my guide. a very unique person. he is more than a guide .. he is also a good friend,  he made sure I enjoyed it. he still shares his expertise in the mountains, Sherpas, and Nepalese culture. . he always supported me, even on days that I had a hard time due to altitude sickness. he encouraged me and inspired me not to give up our life journey, he always emphasized health and safety first. Despite all the challenges of the trek to Everest Base Camp Trek but I’m so glad I did it and I did it with a very good group of people on My Everest Trip. I highly recommend  My Everest Trip if anyone looking for a trek in Nepal.

I have an astonishing encounter! I did the EBC trek with My Everest Trip, a lovely and kind aide. All the groups from My Everest trip were exceptionally mindful, adaptable, and strong during the Trekking as well as in the past and during my outdoor trip. It is tough to go during a pandemic, yet the group was exceptionally proficient and supportive. Many thanks, My Everest Trip ( Puru ). See you soon

What an individual-changing trip it ended up being. Our Guide, Hari, was five-star, proficient, amicable, and had extraordinary information, and he cared for us. I wouldn’t pick one more outing without him; he was only that great. From the first contact with this organization, I realized they were individuals to book with. Every one of my inquiries was responded to rapidly with the specific data I was looking for. As I had investigated, the journey itself was challenging but very satisfying.

Quite often, he would get some information about our actual well-being; without this aid, we would perhaps not have finished the journey, as numerous others we saw were cleared due to wrong acclimatization and the speed at which to go to elevation correctly—an enormous thank you to all the group at My Everest Trip. I would enthusiastically suggest them and constantly involve them in further journeys in Nepal.          Willis

It was a 14-day Everest journey towards the Everest Base camp trek in the Everest region of Khumbu Trek.   One of the finest companies or as I call companions, I was able to join a group from this company.

With a happy smile. After Tengboche, the view was stunning most of the time. We did both base camp and Kalapatthar during our trek. Trekking up to the Kalapatthar was hard but it was a fantastic viewpoint we see Everest is closed to us and it is so worth it. Exploring the base camp is an amazing adventure of a lifetime. We would like to give many thanks to My Everest Trip and our crew Ratna and Birman for their great effort. We will highly be recommended this trip to our friend and this company who arrange everything without any problems.

Everything from the picking up at the airport to the goodbye dinner has been very well organized, making this journey the experience of a lifetime. I had been to Nepal a few years before, and I did a tour of this beautiful country at that time. My Everest Trip I enjoyed it so when I started checking the several agencies that run Everest Base Camp Trek, I decided to choose them; during the trek, my guide  Hari answered hundred of times patiently my questions about every single peak we would see. he is an amiable person as well as our porter. I also changed a bit the scheduled plan by adding, while we were on our way up, an additional day for trekking to the Ama Dablam Base Camp, which is so unique to Everest base camp, which, by the way, I strongly recommend), accommodation and many other things) so that it has been possible for me to have that extra experience also. This journey has been one of the best holidays of my life; I have so many beautiful memories! I highly recommend this agency if anyone is looking for trekking or tours in Nepal.

Bureauet bruger kun certificerede guider og forsikrede portere, hvilket giver en stor tryghed. I det hele taget er nepaleserne utrolig venlige og servicemindede og vi kan ikke sætte en finger på den service der blev ydet os under hele vores ophold i Nepal, ikke kun på selve trekket, men også både før og efter. Trekket var godt tilrettelagt, dagene planlagt så sikkerheden altid var i højsædet og vores guide var virkelig dygtig til sit arbejde. At vandre i Himalaya er en oplevelse for livet. Dagene er fulde af indtryk fra de smukke omgivelser, men i høj grad også en indre rejse, hvor man virkelig kommer til at tænke over livet og hvad der har betydning, det var helt utroligt som vi rykkede os mentalt. Den nepalesiske tilgang til livet smitter af på én og som dagene gik, blev vi bedre og bedre til at være til stede i nuet og takle små forhindringer når de dukkede op. En stor tak skal lyde til bureauet for at give os denne fantastiske oplevelse og vi giver dem vores varmeste anbefalinger

Himalaya er helt fantastisk, jeg er vant med fjeld hjemme i Norge, men plutselig blir Glittertind bare en liten hump på veien sammenlignt med dette.  Trekket var superfint tilrettelagt med passe timer til dagens rute, tid til pause og dage til avklimatisering. Alle klarte sig gjennem uten sykdom nettop fordi vores guide var veldig påpasselig med hvordan vi spiste og drakk, at vi fik passe med pauser og søvn og gik i passe tempo.

Både vores guide og portere var kjempe koselige folk, porterene var ikke så flinke i engelsk, men vores guide lærte os et par nepalesiske ord så vi kunne sige takk og andre små ord og ellers oversatte han bare.

Alle gjorde en kjempe bra job og vi hadde så mye moro hver dag, selv på dagen hvor vi skulle fly tilbake til Kathmandu og ikke kunne komme tilbake på grunn av dårligt vejr fikset de alting på en blund.

Vi vil så gjerne tilbake til Nepal igjen om et par år og så kontakter vi helt sikkert My Everest Trip igjen og da må vi se hvilket eventyr vi drar på, vi vet vi kan stole på de

Firstly, puru was so helpful and answered many of our questions before we got to Nepal including organizing a customized itinerary. He then personally picked us up from the airport and settled us into a lovely hotel! The next day we met our guide Krishna who took us to fly into Lukla. This was no problem at all. My Everest Trip had all these things before we arrived, so it was much easier for us. Krishna was extremely knowledgeable throughout the entire trek. He knew so much about history, geology, geography, and everything. He was also very switched on in assessing my friends when we started to get slight altitude sickness and changed the itinerary slightly to allow for extra acclimatization. Krishna has done the hike over 50 times. Hence, he knew the trek back to the front and the owners of the tea houses. He always ensured our food was cooked perfectly and our tea boiled sufficiently. When my friends and I suffered altitude sicknesses he also carried our bag to alleviate the weight. We felt completely comfortable. so I have kept in regular contact throughout our time in Nepal ensuring that they are still of assistance if we need more recommendations or assistance. You will have a fantastic time in Nepal with My Everest Trip and truly feel well looked after! Do yourself a favour and book with My Everest Trip !! I will be recommending it to all my friends and family.

Doing this trek in the spring of 2019 was a dream come through. Dreaming about this for years, building high expectations and Puru did not let me down. First of all the trek itself is nice, but the kind and well-prepared staff made this an even bigger experience. Always helpful and making sure I was safe and comfortable. Considering everything is included, except for a few personal things, this is also a very reasonable price. Nepal has won my heart and I definitely want to come back for another visit someday and do another adventure with the people from My Everest Trip.

Puru sørgede for at jeg kom på hospitalet og assisterede mig med at kommunikere med lægen. Uden at kny skubbede han turen et par dage så jeg kunne nå at blive rask. Han tilbød mig også et andet trek hvis jeg hellere ville have et kortere, men da jeg havde en uge…

Efter et par dage havde jeg det bedre og kunne tage af sted. Jeg fik en super venlig guide, Yam, som under hele trekket sikrede sig at jeg havde det godt og ikke blev syg igen, han var meget påpasselig med hvad jeg spiste og sørgede for at jeg fik de pauser jeg havde brug for.

Jeg er rigtig glad for at jeg valgte at gennemføre trekket som planlagt, også selvom det betød at jeg havde færre dage i Kathmandu efterfølgende. Jeg har sjældent oplevet så storslået natur og så venlige mennesker overalt hvor vi kom frem. EBC trekket er virkelig anbefalelsesværdigt for alle der elsker at vandre i bjergene.

Jeg har aldrig tidligere oplevet så høj grad af service og omsorg som jeg oplevede med Puru og hans personale hos My Everest Trip og jeg tager virkelig hatten af for at der stadig findes den slags helt specielle mennesker.

Tusind tak for en helt fantastisk oplevelse, jeg kan slet ikke anbefale jer nok!

I’m sure the guides and the porters did this trek so many times, but it doesn’t become routine to them when it comes to how to treat their clients. It’s a nice safety precaution they know the trails so well, but they have the greatest respect for the clients who experience everything for the first time. I don’t think Ratna ever gets tired of telling his stories and it is obvious he holds great love for his country and the mountains. 

You can always be sure Puru does everything in his power to give you the best trek possible. I think actually the only thing he can’t provide for is nice weather! Before my trek, he assisted me in buying some equipment and made sure I get a good bargain.

I would never go to another company,  My Everest Trip is my only trekking partner in Nepal.

I was fortunate to find My Everest Trip when searching the internet for an EBC trek. I looked for a company with three criteria: price, safety, and service. Reading the itinerary for EBC from My Everest Trip, I could see they put the acclimatization days necessary, the hours of daily walking are reasonable, and there are no hidden costs.      Puru took the time to guide this trek himself and is a charming person to be around.

Puru took the time to guide this trek himself and is a charming person to be around. Due to his many years of experience, he has excellent knowledge about his Mountains and his clients; he is patient and always polite, and he knows exactly when to step in with help and good advice and when to leave you in peace. 

I understand why the EBC is a popular trekking destination, and arriving at your starting point by plane adds so much value to the experience. Walking with a good guide who shares his knowledge and takes his time to answer questions is a blessing.

I have only good things to say about how My Everest Trip planned this trek. Transport, accommodation, food, guiding … everything is spot on and trouble-free. The best service I could wish for, and I could not feel safer. 

I give my best recommendation for Puru and My Everest Trip, and if I return to Nepal, I will choose this company again.

My best wishes for all good things in the years to come.

I will highly recommend this company and Ratna.

Some years ago, I made a plan “what to do before I die”  Mt. Everest was on that list.   A friend of mine had been to Nepal a few years earlier, and he recommended My Everest Trip. The following day I contacted the company and started corresponding with Puru. We wanted to go in October 2018, and Puru gave me good advice on preparing for the trek. We planned to see all the sights in Kathmandu for three weeks without rushing through it. Puru planned everything and booked a hotel close to the office. This way, it was straightforward for us…

We planned to see all the sights in Kathmandu for three weeks without rushing through it. Puru planned everything and booked a hotel close to the office. This way, it was straightforward for us to go there when we wanted a guide for sightseeing or ask for advice if we wanted to go on our own. He also assisted us in buying some equipment. The day we flew to Lukla started a bit cloudy, but after 10 minutes, the sky cleared, and we could enjoy the incredible Himalayas…wow. I can’t describe that feeling … just woohoo. On day 2 of the trek, we reached Namche Bazaar, the gateway to Everest, and what a place! So vibrant. We were happy the next day was acclimatization day, so we had time to explore the surroundings. The following days Tengboche and Dingboche. Ratna always takes care of us, making sure we walk good pace and takes time to enjoy the views and take pictures. This fantastic landscape, the snow-covered peaks, the prayer flags, the suspension bridges (even my girlfriend developed a love for them), and the day arrived when we reached the Everest Base Camp. I was blown away. The Queen of my life standing there with the king of the mountains behind her. So I did something I had not prepared for. I picked a small rock from the ground, went down on my knee, and asked her to marry me. Luckily Ratna was quick to capture this special moment on camera. And (lucky me) she said yes! This trek was fantastic in all aspects. My Everest Trip did an excellent job. They know the importance of safety and do not rush through, leaving out acclimatization days to make a good profit or cut any corners short. All the staff is polite and kind and speak good English. When we returned to Kathmandu, Puru took us for dinner at a lovely restaurant to ”celebrate Happy Trek”, as he put it. He even suggested we do our honeymoon in Nepal … and guess what … that’s precisely what we plan to do!!!

My Everest Trip and Ratna made my experience in Nepal incredible. The service, attention to detail, and knowledge Ratna brought made this an extraordinary trip. I was hesitant and nervous about undertaking such an arduous trek–to Everest Base Camp–but with the proper preparation and support and Ratna’s smile, we all had a blast. Thank you, Ratna!

Top 5 Best Treks in Nepal
Excellent Facilitation of a short Himalayan Trek. I’m a regular visitor to Nepal and have been so since the early eighties (of the past century). My visits to Nepal are predominantly centred around work or conducting professional studies. I continue such visits into the present. In my early years in Nepal, I lived in the Western (Karnali-Beri) Region and was based in the Jumla district. Subsequently, I stayed in Kathmandu, where I travelled extensively. My work in and outside Nepal centers on agriculture, forestry, and rural development, particularly in nature conservation, non-timber forest products, and medicinal plants. The Himalayan region is well known for the latter. My most recent visit to Nepal was in November 2017. This visit combined professional activities, meeting Nepali friends, and a short Himalayan trek. While in Kathmandu, I looked for someone or an agency to facilitate the required trekking permits, road transport, and flight arrangements. I relied on these services from Mr Puru Thapaliya for my Everest Trip after meeting him in his Thamel – Chhetrapati office. Initially, Puru assisted me with the international shipment of goods. The small size of the company office is reflected in the extent of services it provides and the high level of efficiency with which it does so. Many positive company characteristics are thanks to Puru Thapaliya himself. He started as a porter in his native rural area, then quickly became a certified guide, and following this, he started his own business. This means he knows the trekking industry in Nepal from the inside out. I learned to know Puru as a dedicated travel agent/service provider who regularly keeps track of you even when you undertake a short, not-too-complicated trek (Jiri – Lukla). There is no explanation for the fact that the preparatory services to arrange this trip were carried out smoothly and at the most reasonable cost. I usually opt for individual or simple guided trips in case remote areas are concerned. In 2017, my available time for logistical preparation and trekking did not allow for more complex trips in Nepal, such as Dolpo, Upper Mustang, or Arun Valley. I favour such trips because of their lower tourism density and high offering of authentic cultural aspects, rich natural history, and scenery. During my personal communication with Puru, he convinced me that he not only possesses the experience and flexibility to support custom-organized trips. He also has the required local contacts to help with such travel. I strongly recommend the services of “My Everest Trip” and Puru. With a small group of friends, I will surely avail myself of these services later in 2018.

Being a great fan of Nepal, I travelled with Puru on the Mount Everest Base camp trek in 2009. It was thoroughly well organized, and Puru was exceptional in his service and always made sure that we were safe, comfortable, and well-motivated (which is sometimes needed!). What I very much appreciated was his style of guidance. I was travelling with my partner, and he respected that we needed our space but was always close by should we need anything. I can highly recommend Puru to anybody going on a trek in Nepal. Book your flights to Kathmandu, and he will arrange…

Luxury Accommodation on Everest Base Camp Trek

Everest View Hotel EBC Trek

Luxury accommodation on the Everest Base Camp Trek generally refers to hotels that offer comfortable bedding and insulated rooms. These accommodations are often included in the Luxury EBC Trek. In this option, the rooms are private with attached bathrooms. Unlike in tea houses, services like hot showers, Wi-Fi, and charging are included in the prices. The restrooms in these luxury hotels are Western-style. 

These accommodation options ensure that the trekkers don’t compromise their comfortable sleep and recover from the aches caused by the long walk. They provide a heating blanket to keep you warm throughout the night. However, these options are limited to the lower regions only. The more you ascend, the more basic accommodation you get, and you must adjust to them. 

Camping Accommodation on Everest Base Camp

Camping in EBC Trek

Camping as an accommodation at Everest Base Camp is the most thrilling and adventurous way to experience the trek. It is unpopular but not unheard of. While going on a camping EBC Trek, you must carry all your belongings, such as food, tent, blankets, gas, vegetables, etc. Camping offers more flexibility as you can set the tent in the spots that provide the most scenic views. You will feel closest to nature with camping as an accommodation. 

Conversely, camping can be a hassle and stressful. There is a risk of cold and wild animals lingering throughout the night. Completing the trek with camping as an option requires a lot of human resources. You need at least two or three extra staff to handle the tent kitchen and your logistics. Also, camping can be expensive, sometimes even more expensive than luxury hotels.

Accommodation Cost on Everest Base Camp Trek

The Everest Base Camp (EBC) accommodation costs range from USD 5 to USD 500+ per night. The price depends on factors like lodging options, the rooms you choose, and the services you receive. It also depends upon the altitude. The higher the elevation, the more expensive the prices are because of the remoteness. You will be spending about USD 100- USD 300 for budget accommodation, USD 500 to USD 1500 for mid-range accommodation, and above USD 2000 for luxury accommodation during the trek. 

The tea houses in the lower region range from USD 5 to USD 15. It can get up to USD 30 in regions like Lobuche and Gorakshep. They might charge extra for facilities like charging, hot showers, and Wi-Fi, which typically starts at USD 3 for each service. Hotels or luxury lodges range from USD 100 to USD 500. Camping can be expensive and might cost around USD 100 to USD 300 per night because of the extra staff and logistical support.

Accommodation Along Everest Base Camp Trek

Accommodation on EBC Trek

Trek accommodation is the best during the Everest base Camp Trek, although it might differ from the trekker’s perspective. You will get tea houses and lodges during the 14-Days Everest Base Camp Trek. It mainly depends on the location and the accessibility of the transport.

Lukla Accommodation

Lukla is the most popular and well-known town where thousands of trekkers meet and begin the trek to the Everest Base Camp, Gokyo Lake, and their Expedition Journey. Multiple lodges, hotels, and tea houses in Lukla are suitable for trekkers’ preferences. Even the tea houses and lodges have private rooms with private washrooms. Almost every accommodation option, besides camping, has hot showers. On the other hand, camping at Lukla is extremely rare. 

Phakding Accommodation

Phakding is the first day of camp for all the trekkers exploring the Everest region. It has several budget-friendly tea houses with basic twin-bed rooms and shared toilets. Some lodges may offer Wi-Fi and charging for the extra fees. Camping in Phakding is possible but uncommon due to the availability of tea houses. 

Namche Bazaar Accommodation

Namche Bazaar is the gateway to the Everest Base Camp Trek. It is a small town with more facilities for trekkers. You will find the best guest houses and hotels, with attached bathrooms, beautiful balconies, and various services. As a central trading hub, the amenities of the hotels here are best on the trek. Accommodation options range from budget to high-end hotels like Hotel Everest View.

Tengboche Accommodation

The accommodation options at Tengboche range from basic to mid-range. Since the amenities provided decrease as the elevation increases, the services here might not stand out compared to Namche’s. However, you will get comfortable bedding with shared bathrooms. You have to pay an extra amount for additional services that are not included in the price. 

Gorakshep Accommodation 

At Gorakshep, the accommodation options available are tea houses that offer simple bedding. The rooms are not insulated, and you might need multiple blankets to handle the cold. So, ensure you carry a sleeping bag for the freezing temperature. 

There is no running water, so hot shower options are not available. Wi-Fi and charging are costly and unreliable. Likewise, the food in these tea houses is also expensive. Camping is possible but rare because of the extreme temperature and lack of water. 

Things to Consider While Choosing Accommodation

The major expense of Everest Base Camp is the accommodations. The prices of tea houses and hotels are high in these areas as they are remote, and any services must be managed by traveling on foot. Moreover, not having the proper accommodation can increase the difficulty of EBC Trek. So, you have to consider a few things while selecting accommodations. They are: 

  • Budget: If you are trekking on a budget, opt for the tea houses or mid-range lodges to save a few bucks. However, if you prefer comfort, go to the hotels. 
  • Comfort and Facilities: Even if you stay at tea houses, you should be comfortable, as it is crucial to recover. You should also consider the facilities. If the accommodation doesn’t offer the comfort and facilities you want, look for another one. 
  • Food and Dining: Most teahouses intend to earn from food instead of rooms. So, they expect you to eat at where you stay. So, before deciding on the rooms, look for the menus and food items available.
  • Crowd and Availability: The tea houses fill up quickly during the peak seasons (spring and autumn). So, book in advance for better accommodation. 
  • Hygiene and Cleanliness: Rooms are important, as is your health. Look for lodges and tea houses that are clean and offer better hygiene. Carry sleeping bags if you feel uncomfortable sleeping on the sheets provided. 

Conclusion

In conclusion, accommodation on the Everest Base Camp Trek includes tea houses, lodges, hotels, and camping. Opting for any of these depends upon what you want. If you prefer comfort and facilities, you should opt for hotels. If you want to trek in budget teahouses, you are your friend. But if you desire an absolute thrill, camping is the best option, even though it is uncommon. 

FAQs

What type of accommodations are available on the EBC trek?

The main options are tea houses/lodges (budget-friendly), luxury hotels (in select locations), and camping (for expedition-style treks). Most trekkers stay in tea houses, which provide basic rooms and meals.

Do tea houses provide blankets?

Yes, most tea houses provide blankets, but they may not be warm enough in higher altitudes. We recommend you bring a high-quality sleeping bag rated for -10°C to -20°C.

Are there attached bathrooms in the accommodations?

The lodges in the lower region and the luxury hotels offer attached bathrooms with hot showers. In contrast, most tea houses have shared toilets.

Is WiFi available in tea houses?

Yes, WiFi is available in many tea houses, but it is slow and expensive, costing $3–$10 per hour. Connection quality is poor at higher altitudes. Satellite internet might be a better option.

Do accommodations provide heating?

Only the common dining area in tea houses has a stove heater, which is lit in the evening. Rooms are not heated, so bring warm clothing and a sleeping bag. In contrast, luxury lodges provide room heating.

Do I need to book accommodations in advance?

During peak seasons (Spring and autumn), we recommend booking tea houses in advance, especially in Namche and higher-altitude villages. So, our trek packages often include pre-booked stays.
