Frequently Asked Questions

When is the optimal time to visit Hotel Century for the best wildlife sightings in Dudhwa Tiger Reserve?

We love Hotel Century for its understated elegance and genuine Nepalese hospitality. The lodge feels luxurious and timeless, a comfortable retreat after a day of exploring, with excellent local cuisine that truly stands out.

Accessing Hotel Century typically involves a drive from Nepalgunj or a cross-border transfer from India, which we recommend arranging directly with the lodge for seamless travel. The region is generally safe for tourists, but standard travel precautions, like avoiding night travel on rural roads, are always wise.

Beyond tigers, what unique wildlife can we hope to encounter when staying at Hotel Century and visiting Dudhwa?

While Dudhwa is famed for its tigers, we particularly appreciate the chance to spot the critically endangered swamp deer, or barasingha, in their natural habitat. The birdlife is also sensational, especially during winter, making it a paradise for keen ornithologists.
