Pemako Thimphu

Thimphu Valley

In the heart of Thimphu, The https://www.seatrekbali.com/cruise/seatrek-the-east-indies-on-a-spice-island-exploration-maumere-ambon/ (formerly the Taj Tashi) casts a grand silhouette against the forested hills surrounding Bhutan’s bustling capital. Combining the Taj brand’s sophisticated luxury with elegant, Bhutanese dzong-style architecture creates a classic, timeless hotel where you can recharge your batteries after exploring the city.

This hotel is sprinkled with ornate details and abstract artwork, giving it a lavish overall effect, but the flashes of bold colour bring in a beautiful contemporary edge. Freestanding tubs add a layer of opulence to those post-sightseeing soaks, and cosy seating areas give you the option to spend time relaxing in the privacy of your suite. All rooms face towards the mountains, with floor-to-ceiling windows bringing in plenty of light and offering spectacular views of the horizon.

Location

Nestled in the heart of the Thimphu Valley, close to the gentle bustle of the capital and enjoying views over the wild hillsides beyond, Taj Tashi is the perfect spot from which to explore the city’s sights.

Why we love it

Discover what to expect from staying at Pemako Thimphu

Luxury & tradition

This hotel oozes opulence with a flair for sophistication. Whilst the grandeur of the hotel is impressive, it's the small things that make Pemako Thimpu stand out. Receive a blessing from a resident monk, visit the local handicraft shops, dress in traditional Bhutanese attire, dine in the hotel's award winning restaurant, or spend the evening watching a traditional dance performance by the fire. Luxury infused with tradition - it's the icing on the cake.
