Gaze out over the majestic Himalayan mountains from an exclusive perch at Six Senses Bhutan. This utterly unique hotel features five separate locations, each with their own landscape and distinct aesthetic.
It’s often said that the best way to experience the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan is to journey through it. Six Senses Bhutan takes that idea and runs with it, granting guests unprecedented choice in where (and how) they want to experience it. The hotel is divided into five separate locations – Bumthang in the forest, Gangtey in the foothills, Punakha amid farmlands, Thimpu up high over the capital, and Paro for a re-creation of the nearby ancient monasteries.
Despite their varied and unique locales, each is united by Six Senses’ clean and modern interiors, alongside their vaunted focus on health and wellbeing. This is best represented by the presence of an elaborate Six Senses Spa in each property, with healing rituals and treatments tailored to Bhutan’s local culture. Whichever lodge you choose, rustic yet upscale luxury abounds with exposed wooden beams and stone deployed beautifully throughout. Complimentary Wi-Fi Internet keeps you connected to the outside world.
Bhutan is proud of its record as the world’s only carbon negative country, and Six Senses Bhutan takes its role in this effort seriously. Each of the five lodges is powered exclusively by hydropower, and water is bottled at the on-site reverse-osmosis facility. Where possible, organic gardens supply vegetables for the lodges’ restaurants.
Keeping up the distinct feel of each lodge, guests at Six Senses Bhutan have a plethora of outdoor activities and cultural experiences to choose from during their stay. Meet with monks engaging in their daily prayers, hike the foothills of the Himalayas, or visit the nearby Black-Necked Crane Conservation Center located near the Gangtey lodge. One thing is for sure, you won’t want to spend too much time lazing in your beautiful accommodation with so much to see and do.
