Situated in Bhutan’s spiritual heartland, Amankora Bumthang is surrounded by some of the country’s most revered monasteries and ancient temples, reached by treks through pristine pine forests and hills. When not exploring the 29 temples and monasteries of the Bumthang region or breathing in the crisp mountain air on a trek, the hotel is home to a tranquil spa where local produce such as wild honey and herbs are used in nourishing treatments. The restaurant is equally skilled at transforming local ingredients into exquisite meals, served either under the shade of the orchard or by the fire.
The 16 suites are minimalist in their style, with a zen-like ambiance, cosy traditional wood-burning stoves, banquette window-seats, and terrazzo-clad bathtubs. After a day of hiking the trails or visiting the nearby Wangdicholing Palace, they offer an inviting haven of calm to unwind, read a book or simply admire the far-reaching views.
Perched at 2,250 metres, Amankora Paro is tucked away amongst the pine trees on the edge of a village above Paro town and offers access to the monasteries, museums and temples of the region, including the renowned Tiger’s Nest.
