United Kingdom, June 2024

8.0/10

The hotel offers stunning views of the city from the balconies, with a good selection of English channels on the TV. However, the cleanliness of the rooms could be improved significantly. The staff is friendly but managing the noise from barking dogs at night may be an issue. The location is fantastic for avoiding the noise of barking dogs in the city, yet conveniently situated near the center. The dining experience is excellent, especially with their grilled fish option.

The hotel offers rooms with balconies overlooking the whole city of Timphu. The rooms are spacious and come with a little terrace, satellite TV with English language channels, but they appeared not to have been cleaned thoroughly. While the shampoo provided works as hair coloring, it's a unique touch that may not suit everyone.
