We stayed one night at this hotel. The rooms are big and spacious. There was a fireplace and firewood and it was quite an experience lighting up the fire. The location is lovely with a beautiful view of the valley. There was no TV or wifi. The food was ok and the staff was accommodating. We had hot towels served... More

Great hotel to stay in Bhutan! Very friendly staff and amazing view over the valley. The rooms are spacious and nice. It is probably one of the nicest places we have stayed over during our trip to Bhutan! Defiantly worth to stay there.

We loved this place. The room was perhaps the nicest one of the 6 in which we stayed during our visit to Bhutan, and the view of the valley was definitely the best hotel room view we had during the trip. And the wood-burning stove, which one of the staff lit for us, made it all very charming. Even the... More

The rooms were spacious with magnificent view of the valley, well equipped for the cold evenings with wooden stoves and hot water bottles. The shower with hot water didn’t disappoint either. The food was rather average though.

I've stayed here twice and it's absolutely my favorite destination in Bhutan. Not only is the valley one of the most beautiful places on earth, but the hotel is delightful in a rather funky way. First, it's cold here. The front desk doubles as the bar. Guest rooms are heated by small wood stoves. For the uninitiated, this can be... More

It may just be that we were unlucky. There was no power in the entire area when we were there and there was still no power when we left. This may have an impact on our views. This place is more like a mountain lodge, within 10 minutes drive from the black-necked cranes viewing/visitor's centre. It is very quiet and... More

This 'hotel' reminded us of an African safari lodge, although a spacious Swiss chalet could describe it as well. Everything was positive: the warm welcome (a hot towel to wipe your face the moment you step out of the car was great as we felt really cold); the spacious room with view on the valley and excellent amenities; the stove...

Even though we stayed at the fanciest hotel chain in Bhutan, the Amankora, this small hotel was the highlight of our trip for me. Real, human, beautiful, true to its nature and the nicest people among a friendly and down-to-earth country,
