Hotels in Bumthang

The Amankora resort in Bumthang overlooks established orchards and is nestled near the grounds of one of Bhutan's royal palaces.

Fairly a new hotel operated by Bhutan Tourism Corporation Ltd., the Hotel Wangduechholing is one of their latest developments and has been rightly placed in the cultural hub of Bhutan. The hotel offers nice rooms with modern amenities incorporating traditional Bhukari (fire-wood stove), a sitting area and outside balcony.

A family-run lodge, Jakar Village Lodge promises to deliver an experience of staying in a friend’s house rather than an impersonal lodge; indeed very well-known for its warm personal touch and amazing food quality, prepared to excite your palate by owner’s own daughter. The lodge faces Jakar Dzong in one direction and on the other the magnificent views of the Bumthang Valley.

The oldest hotel in Bumthang, the Swiss Guesthouse is practically a heritage site, with rich history since 1970s. The old structure of the house in the seventies belonged to older sister of the 1st king of Bhutan. The guest house, spread over an apple orchard, offers a tranquil farmhouse experience. It is run by a Swiss family who has been living in Bhutan for the last three decades and has successfully managed to combine local design with European comfort to ensure optimum guest comfort.
