Making a striking impression on the Thimphu skyline, this Bhutanese-owned luxury hotel is the perfect choice for those seeking a base in the heart of the capital city. Occupying the site of the former Taj Tashi hotel, the owners of Pemako Thimphu have breathed new life into this grande dame of the capital, reflecting the building’s traditional Bhutanese architecture with sensitive and harmonious design features within.
Pemako Thimphu’s 66 rooms and suites are divided across five floors, and all boast uplifting views of the surrounding valley and mountains. Traditional Bhutanese art adorns these rooms, with hand-painted wall designs bringing about an understated sense of place. Creature comforts such as underfloor heating in the bathrooms further make for a cosy and welcoming stay.
