Traditional Bhutanese architecture
Situated in the heart of Bhutan’s lively capital, the Pemako Thimphu is a striking addition to the city’s skyline.
Built in the imposing style of a dzong (monastery), it combines traditional Bhutanese architecture and hand-painted murals with every modern comfort, providing a very stylish retreat with hospitality to match. Located in the heart of the city, it’s a great getaway for those hoping to discover the region’s spectacular monasteries, centuries-old street festivals and scenic mountain passes.
The 66 bedrooms and suites are spacious and elegantly furnished in a blend of traditional and contemporary styles. Marble-lined bathrooms come with freestanding tubs, whilst cosy seating areas offer breathtaking views of the mountains. Amenities include two fine restaurants – one specialising in Bhutanese cuisine – in addition to a bar, tea lounge and a wonderful indoor swimming pool. There’s also a spa where you can indulge in a hot stone bath or a herbal body wrap – very restorative after a day exploring the city’s splendid sights and colourful market.
