Hotels in Bhutan

Excellent location, straight out of a post card. Great food and service. The hot stone bath was under maintenance so we couldn't do that.

Amazing. The room was big and clean, the staff really welcoming and the restaurant food was amazing, one of the best foods I have ever eaten in my life.

great view great stuff great room Helped us arange a guide and driver

One of the best hotels I’ve ever been. Staff was super friendly, room was very clean and the location was perfect. Just outside of the city centre of Thimphu.

It felt like I was visiting a close friend or a relative. The staff as well as the owner Mr Ugyen were exceptional hosts - extremely helpful, and polite which made our stay a wonderful experience. Right from great recommendations for food, places to visit, as well as for the very pleasant conversations with the owner during the cold Thimpu evenings - this trip will always be memorable. I rarely write recommendations, but this place and the people definitely deserve it. I wouldn't hesitate even for a second to book Kisa Villa again if I ever get a chance to visit thimpu again.

Our recent stay at Zhiwa Ling was nothing short of extraordinary, not just for the serene beauty and comfort the hotel offers, but more so for the unparalleled compassion and support shown by the staff during a very unexpected and difficult time for our family. Upon arriving in Bhutan, we were captivated by the charm of Paro town and the hotel room and grounds. However, my mother suddenly fell ill, and the response from the Zhiwa Ling team was was nothing short of exceptional and deeply moving. From the moment we sought help, the staff treated us not as guests, but as their own family. They coordinated immediate medical support, ensured our comfort at every step, and went out of their way to check on her throughout each day and night we were there. Their empathy, warmth, and sense of responsibility were truly remarkable. In a foreign country, far from home, it's rare to find such genuine human connection. The entire experience reminded us that hospitality, at its best, is about heart, not just service. To the Zhiwa Ling team—thank you. We will never forget your kindness. You not only made our stay comfortable, you gave us strength when we needed it most. We would like to especially thank Pema who was very kind at reception, Pemba the amazing manager and Sonam our incredible driver. Pemba and Sonam, in particular, stayed with us each step of the way guiding and reassuring us. They became our extended finally. Same for Zhiwa Ling Accent and team who treated us with warmth and love We will surely visit all of you again, even if it’s just to say hello!

We had the family room which is a huge cottage with two rooms and Bathrooms.. it's great for 3-5 adults.and possibly the only one available in this area. The resort is beautiful and lined with apple trees that were packed with fresh apples. The river flows on one side (down below since the resort in on a hill) and there is a great view of Paro town, the football grounds and Paro Dzong. Since we left for the Trek early, we got packed breakfast, which was decent (boiled egg, sandwiches, juice, apple). The staff is really sweet and helpful and did everything possible to make our stay comfort. They booked us the taxi and guide as needed. The hotel is really sustainable, with glass bottles, soap dispensers (and optional soap bars, if you need just ask), rubber slippers, a stand fan, a chargeable emergency lamp, umbrellas, brown paper bags for food packaging, etc..and the construction is fabulous..I have never seen such wonderful wood even in Europe.

Beautiful location, just outside of the city center but walking distance from everything Great breakfast Large room

The view, the breakfast, and the staff.

Perfect and comfortable stay, with family including elderly parents and our toddler daughter. Hotel had all necessary facilities, good choice of food, great location and very very helpful staff. Using the Indoor heated swimming pool in the cold weather was the highlight !

This hotel is a pearl! Staff, rooms, meals and location is perfect. In addition to the usual hotel facilities they have massage and other healing activities. I tried the massage, and it was great!
