Choose your overnight valleys in Bhutan

Bhutan accommodation works best as part of the route you want to experience. Thimphu and Paro offer two western bases, with the capital's urban setting and the surrounding valley landscapes creating different kinds of stay. Choose how much time you want in each before arranging the nights.

Thimphu for the capital and its surroundings

Thimphu accommodation can place you in an urban setting or on the hillsides beyond the central streets. A town-focused hotel and a lodge among orchards or pine forest offer different surroundings, even when both use the Thimphu name.

Choose the setting around your plans: a stay centred on the capital's cultural visits serves a different preference from one where the lodge and valley outlook are a major part of the experience.

Paro for a valley stay

Paro stays give another part of the western route its own base. The valley's scenery and cultural outings can lead the itinerary, while individual properties offer different positions within that landscape.

For a journey from the Philippines combining several Bhutanese valleys, give each overnight stop its own accommodation choice. A lodge with a panoramic outlook and a property nearer a town centre provide different experiences; the valley name alone does not describe the setting of the room.
