Cocooned in a pine forest on the hilly Motithang area above Thimphu, Amankora is a harmonious retreat within reach of the city but offering an oasis of calm with a world-class spa, archery (Bhutan’s national sport), guided treks to Buddhist monasteries, and superb food. Life here can be as busy or relaxed as you wish, and to aid that journey Amankora provides each guest with a curated ‘top ten’ list of must-try experiences for a truly unforgettable stay.Each of the 16 suites boasts luxurious amenities in quietly elegant surroundings, with traditional wood-burning stoves, inviting banquette window-seats and terrazzo-clad bathtubs. Meals are a highlight, with Bhutanese, Western and Indian dishes making the most of the fresh, local ingredients such as yak meat and fresh honey from the Bumthang Valley. The spa builds on the restorative serenity of the forest with morning yoga in the mountain-view studio, herbal healing, and forest therapy.
