Bhutanese culinary at its best

I and my colleagues and my family had a wonderful culinary experience today at Hotel Thimphu Towers. The full view of the active Clock Tower space added to our group experience. You should go there sooner.

Excellent Location and Outstanding Service at this sustainable and ethically run family hotel.

This was our first hotel on our tour of Bhutan and we couldn't have asked for more. Arriving on a very early morning flight to find our room ready to enable us to rest and then explore in the afternoon. This hotel is ideally placed in the main town square of the Capital of Bhutan and the rooms well appointed. What really makes this hotel special is how it is run. It is run by the owner who is present and engaging at all hours and leads by example in terms of service and standards. The hotel gets a big tick in terms of sustainability, with the provision of filter water in the rooms and I don't believe that I saw one piece of plastic during our stay. Tshering, the owner, has strong employment beliefs, hiring the majority of women into all roles. This may not seem remarkable but she has ensured that she makes a difference to these women, some of whom had no previous experience and a number of whom are single parents, providing education and training to enable them to build a better life.…

Clean, spacious and friendly, with outstanding food & customer service

I was on a 13-day tour of Bhutan, and my agency booked my small group of 4 at Hotel Thimphu Towers. The hotel is modern, clean and centrally located. The food was absolutely delicious! Rooms were both spacious and comfortable. The customer service was outstanding, from the warmth and caring of the owner herself to all the staff I encountered. It's also impressive that they employ many at-risk women as staff and are a green, eco hotel. This place goes the extra mile...and more!

Central location

We stayed here for 2 nights. We chose this hotel because of its location which was convenient. There were many shops close by and it was easy to walk around. We had a room on the 4th floor. The room was spacious and clean. There was a view of the far-away Buddha Dordenma. The water pressure of the shower was good but the hot water ran out pretty quick. The WiFi worked well. We were aware of the noise issue from previous reviews and it was actually not that bad. We had it worse in the Phobjikha Valley. The overall service was average and the staff seemed a bit indifferent. Breakfast was a simple buffet spread and the food was so so.

Introduction to beautiful Bhutan

This was our frst stop on a weeklong trip to Bhutan. The hotel was very nice, the staff very attentive and the room spacious and with great views! We were fortunate to meet the charming owner and she chatted with us for over half an hour, sharing her personal story and the creation of the Thimpu Towers Hotel. It was a great introduction to the friendly and warm people of this country and made us feel all the more welcome. The food was very good. We didn't know what to expect given the relatively young tourist industry in the country, but were pleasantly surprised. There were of course the dogs doing their thing at night but it is pretty easy to get used to that as ambient noise and make it not a big distraction. I woud recommend to anyone to stay at this hotel. Great location, central to many activities in the city, friendly staff and a feeling that the management is doing its utmost to please the clientele. Thank you, Thimpu Towers, for a great stay in your capital! Martin and Eve L…

Central location and warm hospitality

On top of its truly central location, my other favourite thing about the hotel is the team who runs the hotel – friendly staff, great service and the owner, Tshering, who was fun, lovely and incredibly warm and welcoming. She even personally helped sign me up for a free Yoga activity at the Nehru centre which was just 10 minutes away by foot, for which I was immensely grateful. I had breakfasts and dinner there, which were authentically Indian and Bhutanese. I preferred that very much over other hotels' substandard European/Asian (typically Chinese/Japanese) fare while in other parts of Bhutan. Room-wise, it was done in a pretty standard finish with great views of the square. It was properly warm (and in winter, it was essential!) and spacious. There were noises of dogs barking in the night but it didn't bother me much as I was pretty tired from a trek prior. Overall great stay at Thimphu Towers!…

Central Location
Amazing Owner

We stayed at this hotel for two nights. It was a first stop. Loved the tasty food. Very personable owner who makes sure the guests are comfortable. Centrally located within walking distance to shops, bars and cafes. Can be a little noisy and barking dogs but it didn't bother us. Very clean and has all the comforts. Loved the rustic decor.

An oasis in the city

Loved the location, clean rooms, services, amenities friendly staff and quality of food. The services offered by Kamal from the front office/concierge and Sangay at the restaurant were an absolute delight. The hotel was a great find during my stay in Thimphu. 10/10

good central hotel

This hotel is at a very central location, allowing you to wander around Thimpu easily. The only drawback of a central location is the same as everywhere in Bhutan, the noisy dogs at nighttime, but in Thimpu it was less loud than elsewhere. The owners/management are making a real effort towards environmental-friendly choices and promoting local handwork (e.g. laundry baskets woven with reclaimed materials), thus contributing with deeds and not only with words towards the country's environmental goals. The rooms are very big and confortable, the WiFi works well. I would give this hotel a 4.5 rating if I could, what it still lacks is some personality, in the decor, or maybe small touches here and there. The food was adequate, but nothing to remember, after a while you notice that all buffets are more or less the same.…

Their hospitality is superb. Rooms are of the enough size and the view from the room is just to make your mornings gorgeous. They offered two bottles of wine for free as we were there for our honeymoon.
