CHARMING BOUTIQUE HOTEL

Stay here, and you’re just close enough to Thimphu to regularly enjoy excursions into the city without ever feeling immersed in the bustle. The interiors are rich in both natural light and traditional details, while the views over the Khasadrapchu Valley and Wang Chhu River are superb.

When not following hiking trails to ancient Buddhist temples, you can take a picnic basket (prepared by the hotel’s chefs) down to the riverbank, or slow down with a yoga or meditation session. Therapies at the spa, including the hot stone bath, draw from traditional Bhutanese practices, while the dinner menu is a showcase of authentic regional dishes.
