We stayed at Rema Resort for 3 days and had the best time. From the moment we checked in, we were lost in the sheer beauty of the resort and it’s location. Our room overlooked the river and the beautiful Paro valley. The staff was courteous and upon chatting with the owner, we got to know that a lot do what we eat is grown at the resort - a true farm to table experience. The rooms have no plastic water bottles which is a great step towards sustainability and being mindful towards the environment. Also got some pretty paintings as souvenirs which will remind us of our lovely time in Rema and Paro forever! Thank you!

Rema resort has staff that stands out from other hotels in terms of their punctuality, politeness and helpful attitude across the clock. The room we stayed in was right beside the river and the sound of flowing water was very soothing to sleep to. Amenities were on point and the decor was cosy with hand-painted walls. Food was excellent in their on-site restaurant and a sumptuous display of dishes always greeted us for meal times. Staff makes sure to check in and plan ahead in terms of personalised details such as packed breakfast for travellers with their guides heading out early. In the evenings, one can head out for a walk and sit by the river or amble into Paro town which is a short walk away.

Indians stay away!!! The resort where Indians are treated like freeloaders.
The hotel staff are generally polite and respectful towards everyone except for the manager. The rooms are clean & spacious, the views from room are great, but the food is mediocre. The resort mainly has items in their menu which caters to European customers. Indians will not find much to choose from. They are however generous enough to have a seperate menu for Indians which they serve at the table. The menu includes rice/chapati, dal and alu matar. So it seems for others there are 7-8 different varieties of menu items, but for Indians there are just 3 fixed items everyday. Who pays so much and expects food like this. We had been to hotels/resorts in Thimpu and Punakha and there everyone was treated the same and their menu catered to all audiences. On top of that, on the 1st day, the manager/owner told us that we can have buffet items along with Indian items, but the 2nd day he said if we have buffet items, then we can't have the Indian food. However the waitresses kept saying we can have both Indian food and buffet items. It seemed as if we Indians will get food depending on the whims and fancies of the manager/owner, who was clearly busy pleasing the customers from other continents and had no time for us Indians. We felt as if we are unwanted here even when we paid the same resort fees as anyone else. I would never come back to this resort and recommend all self respecting Indians to avoid it.

Greeting from rema resort . we are so sorry that your experience with us was not pleasant. we we just want to make things clear here , i think there is small miscommunication, it is common in most of the hotels that ordering anything alacart which is not included in your package is chargeable. as a small organization we cannot make everything complimentary. we are so sorry our team is not able to attend to your requirement which some how you felt that you did have to pay. we have informed our team to brief any guest next time to avoid such incidence . we assure you that we will always look in the way we can improve .

We were deeply disappointed by the behavior of the resort manager towards Indian guests. While the hotel staff were friendly and the rooms clean and spacious, the bathroom had a persistent foul odor.
The most troubling aspect was the restaurant service. The manager seemed solely focused on greeting European and American guests, ignoring us entirely. On our first day, when I attempted to communicate with the staff, they overlooked my questions in favor of serving foreign guests.
We were informed that the buffet menu primarily catered to foreigners, with a separate Indian menu featuring only basic dishes like dal, chapati, rice, and aloo matar. While we appreciated the option, the discriminatory treatment was unacceptable. When my husband requested a different dish for the next day, we were met with disappointment. The buffet remained the same, and we were told there was no alternative for Indian guests. It felt unjust to be offered the same limited options day after day while paying the same rate as everyone else.
Furthermore, the manager insisted that we would need to pay extra for paneer, stating we couldn’t enjoy both the buffet and the Indian dishes. This behavior was not just disappointing but outright disrespectful. We felt treated like freeloaders, which is unacceptable.
We urge fellow Indian travelers to consider other options. While the rooms and views are appealing, the discriminatory treatment we experienced at the restaurant overshadowed any positives. This is not a place for self-respecting Indian guests.

A little away from Paro, on the hillside. Very warm welcome, attentive and professional staff. Our room in one of the pavilions outside the main building was large, well equipped, with a sitting area in an oriel window with a view of the Dzong. Electric heating in the bedroom and bathroom, a little dated. Restaurant careful in the presentation of dishes, original compared to Bhutanese classics. Efficient and attentive service, the manager goes around the tables to interact with customers. Neat laundry. Possibility of massage in the spa adjacent to the hotel (35€/h) effective after the 5 hours of hiking to the Taktshang monastery. One of our best hotels in Bhutan.

Rema resorts is a terrible place, shouldn’t even be called a resort. I am right there on 31st Dec 22 and feel like a prisoner. My booking was through Makemytrip (MMT) unfortunately, they have lost credibility as a holiday planner, at the most, booking agent would be more appropriate defining term. No one minds paying extra margin to a holiday planner so long as it plays the role. Pl review and reconsider MMT as a holiday planner and Rema as a night shelter. Key points of Rema: Place 3/5 Room 2/5 Staff 2/5 Food 1/5 Courtesies 1/5 Attitude 1/5
Key points of Makemytrip MMT Communication: Too much Effective communication: Nil Follow up for simple matters: Too much Response: Ineffective Charge and margin: Disproportionate to the delivery

Dear guest we are so sorry that you did not have a pleasant stay with us , but we actually want to know about what was wrong with your stay with us. on your above comment we have not seen a single clear justification why we are worth a single start . was it with our rooms? was it the hotel as a general ? if you give us a clear view then we will know where the problem is. Did you book some a premium package and you got a normal package . we are more confused as you have not left any feedback with us . is it a case that you are not happy with your travel planner and you are dragging us in it .

A pity that my stay was only for one night. A great location, with a view over the Paro valley and the Dzong, a room with a separate terrace and all needed for a pleasant stay.: coffee corner, treated water, which is safe to drink,comfortable bed . This place is within walking distance of the main street in town, some 25 minutes walking. We had dinner in the hotel and we got many different dishes of vegetables, red rice and who wanted, chicken or beef. All very tasty. The staff was very helpful when I had difficulty connecting to the internet. Would have stayed here several days if possible.
Tip: Try to stay at least two nights, and ask for a room in the row with the view. They have a spa too, plan to have some time there.

Lovely Resort for 4 star. High up on a hill so great views of Paro, the river, etc. Landscaping was interesting with kitchen garden/topiary areas. Our room was an OK size but no separate sitting area within the room. There was a bar which had a good vibe and drinks were inexpensive. The restaurant fine but nothing special. It was also difficult to access with a very steep, narrow set of stairs. I believe in high season the Rema offers an additional restaurant option. Breakfast was not well catered for for us (as Australians) and dinner selection was quite modest (we ate local food and love it but choice was limited). The restaurant did have a great view which was nice to see over breakfast.

Wonderful place and amazing staff. The rooms are spacious, the resort is on a small hillock and the views are mesmerizing. They have a small restaurant and they have a decent breakfast spread. The staff is always helpful to make your stay pleasant and ensure that you get the most of the stay. Certainly visiting again.

The food is made by schef it's tasty but you have to book for every day because the hotel is far away from any nearby village and with a very bad still soil narrow road to reach ...and of course it's expensive!
There are more places to choose from in the Paro area.
