The Hotel was the perfect hotel in terms of Location . Being from Mumbai , the weather was very cold , but the warmth of the people at Taj made our stay memorable. The Staff at the Front desk Sangay ,Gaylay, Tenzin, Dechen were outstanding . The staff at the Restaurant made us feel at home and the Chef (Mr Patel) made available food which was not even in the Menu . The Housekeeping Staff were also very courteous . Even our Guide arranged by the Hotel Tshechu Dorji was amazing So would Give a perfect 10/10 rating . A definite place to recommend . Thank You

They say the people make the place...in this instance it is so true . From the moment we entered the property the ease of checking in and the warm friendly nature of the reception staff made up for the cold wind blowing outside. Gaylay especially was most helpful to my partner in creating a magical birthday experience for me. It's a beautiful property with the architecture signature to the Bhuatnese culture. The rooms are fantastic and warm. Try and book the room with a balcony. The food is fantastic and we had the Bhutanese taster which was outstanding. Chef Hushimoi Patel was most accommodating. The cherry on the cake is the GM of this property Moncrief Aviet. He was most helpful in guiding us to see the right places in Thimpu and helped us settle in by giving us important information required to acclamatise onself . It was an absolute pleasure interacting with him and gathering all the required information to have a holistic culturally uplifting experience of Bhutan. All in all completely refreshed and ready to face the hustle bustle of Mumbai. I leave with some beautiful memories. …

Bhutan as a country is a visitors delight with rolling hills, magnificent landscapes, hospitable people, scrumptious food and grounded in tradition. The Taj Tashi at Thimpu only helps to magnify the overall Bhutanese hospitality. The Taj is located in the centre of Thimpu, The service is above par and each and every staff that we interacted with, went out of their way to accede to our requests and ensure that we have a great holiday. The suites are large and well laid out. The Bhutanese restaurant is a gastronomic delight with a wide variety of food from all regions of the country. The arrangements in terms of pick up, drops and guided tours to Thimpu and Paro were all well coordinated. Bhutan is a great place to unwind, relax and go back to basics and the Taj Tashi admirably maginifies the happiness quotient! …
