Amankora's Lodges

At an elevation of 2,250 metres, Paro Valley makes a beguiling start or an atmospheric end to an Amankora journey. Nestled amongst thick pine, Paro Lodge presents 24-suites, a two-storey spa and a glass-walled yoga studio. Meanwhile, keen hikers can take the 4-hour journey from Paro Lodge to Tiger's Nest.

Set in the upper reaches of the Motithang area, the 16-Suite Lodge of Amankora Thimphu is built in the style of a traditional dzong fortress. Within reach of the capital’s shops and sights, the lodge remains a secluded retreat from which to explore both all the city has to offer and the wild Himalayan landscape.

In the little-visited Phobjikha Valley near the village of Gangtey, the eight-Suite Amankora Gangtey is set on a forested knoll with scenic views of the valley floor and the 16th-century Gangtey Goemba monastery. Suite interiors have been designed to mirror those of Amankora Thimphu to ensure a seamless travel experience.

The 16-Suite Amankora Bumthang rests adjacent to the Wandichholing Palace, within the town of Jakar in the Choekhor Valley. From here, guests can embark on a multitude of cultural and spiritual experiences, including the unforgettable experience of the 108-butter lamp offering at Taktsang Monastery.

Reached by crossing a suspension bridge over the Mo Chhu River, Punakha Lodge incorporates a traditional Bhutanese farmhouse built by a former Je Khenpo (chief abbot of Bhutan). Eight of the suites are identical in design to those of Amankora Paro, with views across an orange orchard and rice terraces, while four reside in a new building.
