It's been 6 months since my stay at Khang Residency. The euphoria of my trip to Bhutan, including my stay at Khang Residency on my first night, still remains. From the hot tea to the lemon grass scent hot towel at the lobby, Khang Residency set the travelling mind at ease and at home immediately. The room was - wow, spacious, well furnished, clean and well maintained. The room and bed were sufficiently warm enough for me to adjust to the first winter night (I live near the equator). Though one might have heard about the barking of dogs in Thimphu in the night, this barking is the sound of benevolence and compassion in Bhutan. And at Khang Residency, I could still hear the barking - faintly. So, if you are a light sleeper, this hotel might be a good choice for you. I can't thank the staff enough for helping me to wear the Kira - from wrapping me sufficiently and securely so that I could hike comfortably without fearing that the 'skirt' would come off (haha), to looking high and low for a safety pin that I requested to hold the 'blouse' together. Throughout the process, we were giggling and laughing away like how sisters would. Thank you, Khang Residency, for your warmth and hospitality. May you come back well and strong when tourism resumes after the Covid-19 pandemic. Meanwhile, stay safe.…

Stayed here our first night in Bhutan and enjoyed it very much. Wasn’t sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised how nice the rooms were. Had dinner and breakfast the next morning before leaving. A little outside main area if Thimphu but did not matter to us at all. Would highly recommend.

The hotel is very clean and spacious; however the hair dryer & the TV were not working in my room during my stay. The location of the hotel is good and worth to stay. Also, there is a very nice restaurant next to the hotel but advance booking is required.

Kuzuzangpola, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Your feedback is extremely valuable to us as we strive to improve with each and every stay.

Hope your stay in Thimphu was otherwise enjoyable and hope to welcome you back to our new and improved hotel. Kadrinchela, General Manager

Review by Ngak’chang Rinpoche. The Khang Residency is a delightful hotel well situated for Vajrayana practitioners— Lamas and their sanghas—as well as for general tourists. The hotel has a good atmosphere and the staff are most friendly and helpful. A high standard of food is available offering a wide range of options. The food hygiene is suitable for Western people and the hotel is admirably clean. We host Jomo Sam’phel Déchen Rinpoche in the garden and had several dinners for over thirty people — which were well catered. The wi-fi is fully functional in almost all pert of the hotel and laundry is taken in and expedited rapidly. The room in which Khandro Déchen was spacious and commodious and the Khang Residency Lotus highly and plan to return on 2021 when we next make a pilgrimage to Bhutan.…

Kuzuzangpola, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are truly blessed and honored to have Rinpochela and his wonderful team at our hotel. Our team was so happy to hear your positive comments and learn that their efforts did not go unnoticed. Not many of our guests are aware of our garden and patio located behind our hotel so thank you for mentioning that. Our guests can spend a relaxing day in the gazebo and also get a glimpse of “Changangkha Lhakang” the most revered and oldest Buddhist monastery overlooking the hotel. We are truly blessed to be only a two minute walk away from this beautiful sacred landmark. Once again, we thank you for choosing to stay with us and are very happy to hear that you will be returning to Khang Residency in 2021. We hope to create an even better experience for you all. Kadrinchela, General Manager

The Khang Residency offers spacious rooms, delicious food and a friendly, efficient service. From the room window or the balcony, one gets a wide glimpse over Thimphu. It is a "don't worry, be happy" place.

Staff were helpful and kind. Meals tasty. Breakfast very generous. It’s not located close to shopping or restaurants, but in house restaurant is fine. As with most hotels, too much light under doors, through curtains and from led displays.

We had a very good stay at Khang Residency but I believed this hotel will become even better with regular checks and maintenance. The rooms are spacious and clean. The bathroom had a bathtub and standing shower. Our room 402 had a poor water pressure. The bathtub shower and standing shower simply didn't have enough water pressure even if you turned the tap to the max. The entrance door at 402 couldn't close properly and there is a gap which allows anyone to see inside the room. The breakfast is very good and service staff are friendly.

The service was great. The bed was comfortable and clean. However, the water pressure of the shower was extremely low and the temperature of water heater varies, which disappoint us quite a bit, especially when the evenings were cold. Not sure if the water pressure issue was just for our room. The food was great, very homecooked. But, the portion for dinner could be a little too much. Overall, recommended stay.
