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!

Situated in Thimphu, The Willows Hotel, Bhutan offers 3-star accommodation with a terrace, a restaurant and a bar.
Guest review
This is a really good property with an awesome restaurant which serves very tasty food. I am a very frequently traveller and had arrived after a stay at Marriott. I must say this hotel equalled if not bettered Marriott point by point on service promptness and quality. Rooms are very clean and very well maintained. Laundry service is awesome and it didn't burn a hole in my pocket. Very affordable hotel at an excellent location in Thimphu. Special thanks to Lhamo Tshering of the restaurant and all other staff members for taking good care of me during my 10 night stay there.

Taktsangri-La in Drugyel Dzong features 4-star accommodation with a garden, a terrace and a bar.
Guest review
Yoona (fondly called Missie), is the Architect, designer and co-owner of this place. She welcomed us warmly, always smiling and patiently listened to all our"asks" and addressed all our requirements. The place is beautiful in a beautiful, scenic setting, filled with even more beautiful people.
We thought their stone bath was heavenly... The ambience, the bath itself, the open night sky, is a not to miss experience.
Sonam, co-owner and Yoona's husband, is very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about Bhutan. I recommend you reach out to them for a complete consultation even while you are planning your trip.
The setting is perfect for team building, leadership outings, yoga retreats, different types of travel groups and also a wedding destination.
Their chef will go out if his way to treat you to Bhutanese and Indian cuisines... Which you will find authentic and True to its nativity just as the perfectly designed resort.
The staff goes out of their way to welcome you and ensure your stay is comfortable beyond your expectations.
I totally recommend Taksangri La as your base as you do other things in Bhutan.
I hope you get to meet Sonam's 84 year old mom and enjoy her company as much as we did.
