This was my second visit in three years, and the hotel is still a jewel. Checkin is fast and friendly. The rooms are spacious and well decorated and appointed---and those with mountain views are especially good. The lobby and restaurant areas are beautiful--including lovely views of the mountains and the hotel's own (huge) prayer wheel and patios. Staff are so... More

Excellent in e v e r y way - loved my room with a balcony and luxurious bathtub, the Jiva spa and above all, the hospitality of the hotel staff. My stay here was so so good that I chose to explore western Bhutan by staying at Taj Tashi and driving to the other places. Nothing against other hotels in... More

Having enjoyed Taj hospitality and service in India, we were prepared to be impressed by this property. Located in the center of Thimphu, right beside the well-organized craft market and a short walk from the covered market, this modern hotel adopts the architectural style of its country and neighborhood, down to the stones 'holding down the roof'. Arriving at the... More

Let me start with the pros: the rooms are absolutely stunning. Tastefully furnished, comfy beds, pillow menu (choose what pillow you like most-- cotton, soft/firm,etc.) -- large bathrooms with separate shower and bathtub. The spa, gym and swimming pool are great. Clean and modern. The staff in the lobby was very friendly and helpful. Cons: Even though the breakfast buffet... More

A return to civilization after weeks in the hinterlands. The structure is lovely - especially by Thimphu standards. Management met us at the door with silk scarfs and a small ceremony. The entire staff was incredibly gracious and friendly. The rooms and appointments are far better than one experiences in most US hotels. The restaurant serves respectable western and Indian... More

The Taj Tashi provides an unprecedented level of service that made our stay - and celebration of my 50th birthday in Bhutan - my most memorable to date. From our arrival, Rinzin Lhamo, Guest Relation Manager, took it upon herself to make our stay truly spectacular, even assigning the lovely and thoughtful Thinley to help us through our meals.

This hotel comes at very high cost, which is not justified by the service. The rooms are big and luxorius, though having really nothing so fancy to justify 500+ USD price tag. Management seemed to lack professional training which would one expect from the Taj group hotel. Avoid dining here. We took bhutanese dish which came for 55 USD and... More

Beautiful property with excellent Indian and Bhutanese hospitality. Food is very good and kids really enjoyed having Indian and Chinese food. Dances in the evening created excellent atmosphere for a long awaited holiday for our family. Spa is fantastic and you can pamper yourself with good treatments.

Stayed here for two nights in March and found the service outstanding. The restaurant staff were very helpful especially Thingney and Yongchen who deserve special mention for making special arrangements for good when my friend was ill. The rooms were well appointed and had all the convenience of a 5 star hotel. My only complain is that after paying a... More

If you are so lucky as to make it to Thimphu, Bhutan, by all means opt for the Taj Tashi. Wonderfully located in the heart of the capital, it is also an exquisite place. We stayed there two weeks in February and had the most wonderful time. The facilities: fantastic indoor pool/hot tub, great exercise room, large bedroom suites. High... More
