Bhutan Spirit Sanctuary

Exceptional service! Entire staff went above and beyond to make our stay was one that we will never forget! The food was gourmet and delicious and the spa was top notch. Great location with east access to downtown Paro. Already trying to figure out when we can go back!

Beautiful facility that sent us into instant relaxation and comfort. The kind and attentive staff who went out of their way to offer whatever made us most comfortable and at home. Rooms were decorated and set out with the outmost care. Beautiful views, incredible food, and unparallelled comfort. We enjoyed sitting on the deck to take in the mountains, the giant bathtub, and the wonderful spa. The perfect home and landing space for our Bhutan explorations.

We went on a yoga retreat and stayed three nights at the Bhutan Spirit Sanctuary - it was absolutely phenomenal! The rooms, the dining spces, the food, the staff - 10 stars out of 5. I really cannot say enough about how welcoming, accommodating, friendly; they treated us like respected and adored family. This location was (other than climbing to Tiger's nest) the absolute highlight of our long journey. The heated bathroom floors, the shower, our own outdoor space, the spa services... seriously - amazing. Thank you all for making our trip so perfect.

Excellent service, food and comfort. The view from my room was fabulous. I enjoyed speedy coffee delivery to my room and relaxing Kunye massages.The yoga room was perfect for our large group.The meals were delicious and beautifully presented in many courses.

I wish more people knew about this place! This is a fantastic new property designed with Bhutanese architecture in mind and offers amazing vistas. We didn't stay there overnight but absolutely enjoyed the spa and dining on a day trip. Paro is known for its hot stone baths and this is the place to get one if you want the most luxurious, hygienic and pampering hot stone bath treatment coupled with massages. The spa is headed by Dr. Kelzang Dorji who's trained in ******* holistic medicine -- the hot oil compression treatment is a must!

I booked this trip at the very last minute (less than a week before arrival) because I really needed a reset. And boy did I pick the right place! Despite my admittedly reckless scheduling, Anouk was incredibly helpful connecting me with a local travel agency, and they helped arrange my visa and flights in a matter of days. On arrival, the staff was lined up to greet me, and from that point on I felt part of the family. Every need was taken care of, and the staff must have kept good notes because all of my preferences were remembered at every meal. I asked for the fire pit on the deck to be lit one night after sunset, and each time I came to the common room after that evening, it was immediately lit without my asking. I just wish I could have spent more time there... but I rest happy knowing that I most definitely will. And I am excited to bring my spouse and close friends next time.

Due to Covid and other medical issues, we waited almost 4 years for our trip to Bhutan. We chose to stay at the Bhutan Spirit Sanctuary, and I have to say, it totally surpassed all our expectations, it was truly magical. The location, the views, the hotel, the food and the staff were all perfect! In addition, the hotel has a strong emphasis on sustainability and is totally plastic free. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome in its world of peace and tranquility. If you are looking for an unforgettable experience, where nothing is too much trouble for the staff, I would strongly recommend that you stay there for an unforgettably good experience. Without doubt, one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in!

We waited three long years to come to The Bhutan Spirit Sanctuary and it proved to be well worth our journey. Anouk and her team ensure that this is the perfect place to rebalance and restore your mind and body while soaking up all that Bhutan has to offer. Almost everything is included, lovely organic food and interesting menus. Staff are attuned to anticipate every need. We were impressed by the fabulous spa (heated!) pool and the interesting, very personalised treatments (thank you Dr Dorji). We can hardly wait to return !

We had a very relaxing time. Lovely and welcoming staff and delicious food. The spa treatments were excellent and very unique. This is a great place to visit and unwind after sight seeing and/or trekking. I also/has a cookery lesson with Tenzin which was fun. A highly recommended place to stay.
