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. From shopping for jewellery in the town, taking in the views of the snow-capped Jhomolhari mountain, or joining the lighting of 108 butter lamps at Kyichu Lhakhang, the hotel offers a chance to both unwind and learn more about the culture and heritage of Bhutan.
With 24 suites, it’s the largest of the Amankora properties but retains the impeccable service and refined attention to detail that makes them so special. The spacious, wood-clad suites are sleek and pared back, with bukhari wood-burning stoves, inviting window seats and terrazzo-tiled bathtubs. The simple restaurant lets the view do the talking, while fresh, local ingredients are transformed into beautifully-presented, delicious dishes. The spa is a haven of care after a day of hiking, with a traditional hot stone bath, glass-walled yoga studio, sauna and steam room.
