Everest View Hotel Altitude.


Everest View Hotel is situated at an elevation of 3880 m in the Khumbu region of Nepal inside the UNESCO world heritage site, the Sagarmatha National Park.

Everest View Hotel was regarded as the world's highest placed hotel in Guinness book of the world 2004.


Namche Bazaar to Everest View Distance.
It takes about 2 -3 hours from the main tourist hub of the Everest region Namche Bazaar to reach the Everest View Hotel.

Elevated at 3,880 meters, the Everest View Hotel is one of the highest placed luxury hotels in the world. This hotel is the main attraction of Everest View Trek, the reason being the wonderful Himalayan Vistas it offers. 


As a justification to its name, Mount Everest is visible from every room of the Everest view hotel. The trail to Everest view Hotel from Namche is a mostly uphill walk through the villages, meadows, and rhododendron forests.

The Everest View Hotel is behind a ridge and surrounded by tall fir trees keeping it hidden as you cannot see the hotel until you reach nearby.
For your safety
The common risk as you trek above 2500m is Altitude sickness.

Altitude sickness is instigated by acute exposure to the low partial pressure of oxygen at high altitudes. The available amount of oxygen to endure mental and physical alertness decreases with altitude and since the available oxygen drops as the altitude decreases, the altitude sickness quite becomes a problem.


So, don’t ignore, if you have any symptoms then descending to a lower altitude is the only option.
Everest View Hotel Death and Altitude Sickness
Since Everest View Hotel is situated at an elevation of 3880m you need to be careful regarding the altitude sickness.

An altitude above 3500 meters the content of oxygen is lower and it is the main cause of altitude sickness.
There are many previous records of deaths of people during the  Everest expedition but there is no official record of deaths in Everest View Hotel or Everest View Trek but we cannot ignore the fact that you may suffer from altitude sickness.

Proper acclimatization is required to prevent altitude sickness.
While on the journey, you need to carry some means to purify water, iodine or a fine ceramic filter are the best options. The streams should be considered polluted and though bottled water is often available, the disposal of plastic bottles is a problem.
The Everest View Trek boasts many extra outstanding and delightful mountains, in addition to a number of the most worthwhile trek.
