Bhutan is a Himalayan hideaway with a wealth of mystery concealed within its hills. As the only Vajrayana Buddhist nation in the world, you’ll notice a strong religious influence in all walks of life, as well as the widespread philosophy of ‘National Happiness’. During your stay in Bhutan, a daily tourism fee covers a local guide, museum fees, meals and transport. Local tours are an ideal way to explore the main destinations like Thimphu, Paro – home to the famous Taktsang Monastery – and Jakar – the site of the ancient Kurje Lhakhang temple. Adventurers should head for Bhutan’s lesser-explored east, showcasing the country’s authentic natural beauty. The eastern region features a number of hilltop monasteries and the pilgrimage site of the Aja-nye cave. Whether you’re looking for a short walk or something longer, you’ll encounter dense forests and scenic routes along the way. Most areas have hotels available, with luxury options available in the picturesque towns of Paro, Jakar, Punakha, Gangtey and Thimphu.

Guest review
This is a fantastic hotel. The view of peaceful Bhutan from this hotel, up on the mountain, is incredible. I woke up everyday with a beautiful mountain view through floor to ceiling windows. The beds and pillows are so comfortable and clean. The food is great and the staff is some of the best I've ever seen around the world. If you come to Bhutan and do not stay in this hotel, you are missing out!

Guest review
Definitely stay here! The location is stunning overlooking the Dzong, the Bhutanese food was excellent, and the room was large with plenty of Bhutanese touches that make the place feel homely and welcoming, including some antique items in the rooms. The manager and team were friendly and warm, and all the food comes from their own garden. The dining area is especially beautifully done, in a traditionally Bhutanese style with views of the Dzong as you eat. The team agreed to serve us a super early breakfast at 5:30, served on the terrace outside - again with magnificent views of the Dzong. The owner's family offers the use of their private altar room to meditate. I would happily stay here again!

Guest review
The location was super, very close to Taksang, and set in a very quiet street. Beautiful view of the mountains from the bedroom. the staff were very attentive and caring. We even practiced some mindfulness together in the morning. The food was very good - fresh from their own garden. Overall my favourite place in Paro after my third visit.
