Best hotels in Gangtey

Steep slopes covered in pine trees lead down into the secluded valley of Gangtey where you'll find endangered black-neck cranes in their numbers and a tiny village at its centre. With a view of it all, Gangtey Lodge is perched on a private ridge, its own luxury version of a mountain hut. On arrival, you're presented with a white scarf to symbolise respect and care, accompanied by a rendition of the national song and followed by a neck massage - the tone for your stay is more than set. Think hot stone baths and hiking to reach glorious panoramic views and you're on the right track.

Where the whispering winds meet the rolling hills, Phuentsho Yangkhil Resort awaits to embrace you. Born out of a passion for preserving Bhutan’s natural heritage, the founders envisioned a place where guests could immerse themselves in the untouched beauty of the valley while enjoying warm hospitality.
