Detailed Reviews
This is a relatively new hotel in Sep 2023 but its service quality belies its age. The services, always delivered with a big genial smile and politeness, seem to go the extra mile to make your stay comfortable.
The rooms are new and comfortable though might seem a bit pricey at first, but then all of Thimphu seems to be expensive. Location is ideal if you have work in Thimphu but would still prefer a quiet neighborhood.
All in all well worth the value offered. A signing off appreciation for the courteous and friendly manager as well! All the best to you and the hotel.

This is a recently opened hotel with very clean and spacious rooms. The lighting in the rooms is bright and perfect for working. The bathroom is also very comfortable and spacious, with plenty of hot water. The air conditioner is made in Japan and maintains a comfortable temperature. The location is great, with a supermarket next door, the central post office where you can exchange money nearby, and a local market, making it a comfortable place to live in Thimphu. There is also a conference room, making this a good hotel for business use. I would definitely like to use it again next time.

The Capital Hotel, Thimphu is one of the rare hotels that is ideal for a wide range of travellers - business, leisure and family. It has all modern amenities while being situated in the heart of Thimphu town, a stone's throw away from the stadium, popular shopping centres and the local farmers’ market.
It has a fantastic restaurant with an outdoor patio area and a wide range of cuisines. I personally love the rooms facing Thimphu Chu (Thimphu river) – where you can enjoy the scenic views overlooking the river and the hill behind it.
Despite being right next to the stadium (where concerts and events are held frequently), I was pleasantly surprised to find out that there is zero noise inside the rooms – due to the quality of windows / doors used.
What tops it all off is the hospitality - a fantastic, courteous and capable team that will go beyond their call of duty to make for an amazing stay – led by the charismatic owner, Ms Tshering!
Overall, a great place to stay whenever you are in Thimphu. I definitely recommend it!

The tour group my husband & I took in early October stayed here at The Capital Hotel. Both times our stay was very nice, staff was very friendly, wonderful cinnamon tea served upon arrival each time. Everything was in good order although there was some confusion about meals in the dining room as there was also another, larger tour at the same time that took up lots of the staff's time. But in general, it was a very nice place to stay and within walking distance of several key tourist locations: The Farmers Market, the Postal Museum, The Textile Museum ...

Hotel is likely new as all facilities look mint and even smell new. The bed and pillows are way too soft, but this is just a matter of personal preference. The rain shower has great pressure. Service was equally impeccable from all staff during my four-night stay.
