Perched at Danna on Thandiani Road, Magpie Lodge is built for guests heading up toward the hill country rather than into town. Nightly rates run from PKR 11,000 to 14,000, reflecting a more comfortable, retreat-style stay. Each room has an attached bathroom, beds and mattresses provided, and geysers for hot water, which you'll be glad of at this elevation. A UPS provides power backup through any load-shedding, Wi-Fi keeps you online, and parking is on hand for the drive up. The nearest points of reference, town ship and Jamia Masjid Bumlial, sit around four kilometres off, with Ilyasi a little beyond, giving you a sense of just how peaceful the surroundings are. COMSATS Abbottabad lies about 5.6 km away and Ayub Medical roughly 6.5 km, so this is firmly a bring-your-own-car destination. For travellers wanting a quiet, well-equipped base near Thandiani, with the power and hot water sorted for cooler nights, Magpie Lodge makes a restful choice.
