Accommodation

During your luxury Bhutan journey, you will only stay at carefully selected 5-star properties in Bhutan.

How did we select these properties?

We looked for places that operate beyond the common notion of a 5-star hotel.

We did not look for conventional luxury; we looked for…
Places that focus on excellent service and personal care;
Places that respect Bhutanese culture and local communities;
Places that offer more than an overnight stay.

Every property during your Bhutan journey will offer exceptional experiences, from a consultation with a Traditional Bhutanese Medicine Doctor to midnight stargazing and sunrise breakfast with the monks.

Not a hotel, but your home away from home.

Paro Valley

Just a 15-minute ride from the International Airport in Paro, the Bhutan Spirit Sanctuary, an SLH property, is nestled on a mountain slope of the Neyphu Valley.

Built as a Bhutanese monastery, it completely blends in with the natural environment and local community. The Sanctuary is the first and only 5-star wellness-inclusive luxury resort in Bhutan. The ideal location to experience the cultural essence of Bhutan and enjoy a unique form of generous hospitality. Room rates include a private consultation with a Traditional Medicine Doctor and one wellness treatment per day. Due to its central location, it’s the perfect place for long stays, where day excursions to the Tiger’s Nest, the capital Thimphu and the Haa Valley can be alternated with relaxation days enjoying all the included in-house activities, such as Bhutanese cooking classes.

Punakha Valley

Nestled on the tranquil banks of the Mo Chhu River, the Pemako Punakha Resort spans 60 acres of untouched forest, sloping green lawns, and riverside wilderness.

Guests begin their stay by crossing a traditional suspension bridge draped in colorful prayer flags right over the rushing glacial river.

Each tented villa offers wide, open decks with direct views of the river and forested hills. Private heated pools on the terraces let guests swim while taking in the mountain scenery. Walking paths weave through the trees, leading to quiet hidden spots along the water. This calm environment invites travelers to slow down and connect deeply with the outdoors.

Gangtey Valley

Perched high above the pristine nature reserve of the Phobjikha (Gangtey) Valley, Gangtey Lodge, an SLH property, rewards the intrepid traveler with spectacular views over the 17th-century Gangtey Monastery, traditional farmhouses, and dense forested mountains of Himalayan blue pine.

The lodge offers the weary traveler the perfect blend of luxury through adventure, spiritual enlightenment, and deep connections with the culture and community of rural Bhutan. A journey for the senses, as they perfectly balance taste, space, and scenery.
