We love this property becoz the rooms are in open area with lush green grass and beside river is flowing. Staffs are polite & humble, inside every room u will find traditional dress of Bhutan so that u can wear it. Food is good they have both local Bhutanese & Indian cuisine, fresh rotis are also available. This property is little far from Thimpu town but easily accessible to all the location. They have their own traditional Spa. Highly recommend for Thimpu stay.

Manager Ms Bishnu was very helpful right from I booked the trip. As I was traveling solo to Bhutan, she arranged the guide and driver. The room was upgraded and everything was perfect. Even the staff were very courteous and they ensured to cook according to my preference. Totally suggest this place if anyone is looking for a good stay in Thimpu.Top floor Rooms are good with great views. Good Bathroom and you get a study table as well. I enjoyed my stay in this hotel.

The hotel is near the centre of Thimphu. It's a thoroughly modern hotel. The rooms are large and well equipped. I'm not sure which grade rooms we had as we were on a guided tour and so didn't do the booking. When we were there it was very cold for those two nights and we were provided with an electric heater for the room. Unfortunately our large room was on a corner with two external walls full of glass and very high ceilings - the heater couldn't really manage to keep us warm. We had extra duvets too and only just managed to keep warm in bed. Other people in our group managed to be warm enough in their rooms but ours (504) was definitely cold. That aside, the food was good and the location OK.

We, a family of 6, 2 senior citizens, 2 adults, 1 9yr kid and 1 infant stayed in Khamsum Thimpu and Khamsum Paro in April 2024 End. Their manager Mrs. Usmita was very cordial during our stay. The rooms given to us were fantastic. Being a Veg Hotel, amazing Jain food was easily available at their restaurant. For a few local dishes, Mrs Usmita actually went out of the menu and made us enjoy the delicacies. (For Jains like me, there is a veg cafe named Mountain Cafe, very close by at both places which even has a Jain / Vegan Menu) Mrs Usmita helped arrange for one of the best Hot Stone Baths in Paro for all of us. My 9 year kid too enjoyed it a lot. Absolute value for money hotel. A must book place for Jain, Vegan and Vegetarian travellers.

The tour group my husband & I took in early October stayed here at The Capital Hotel. Both times our stay was very nice, staff was very friendly, wonderful cinnamon tea served upon arrival each time. Everything was in good order although there was some confusion about meals in the dining room as there was also another, larger tour at the same time that took up lots of the staff's time. But in general, it was a very nice place to stay and within walking distance of several key tourist locations: The Farmers Market, the Postal Museum, The Textile Museum ...

My recent stay at the Numinous Hotel in Thimphu was a pleasant experience. The hotel's location was convenient, providing easy access to the city's attractions and amenities. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with all the necessary amenities. The staff was friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any requests.   The hotel's restaurant offered a variety of delicious Bhutanese and international dishes. The food was well-prepared and the service was prompt. The hotel also has a bar where guests can relax and enjoy a drink. Overall, I was satisfied with my stay at the Numinous Hotel and would recommend it to others visiting Thimphu.

I had dinner at the restaurant and would like to commend the service of the manager on duty, whom I believe is Mr. Sonam. The restaurant was full for a party that evening, but the manager recognized me from the day before and created a space for me to have dinner. I was very impressed by his commitment to hospitality and greatly enjoyed my experience. The food was delicious.

Warm Cozy home...away from home! An excellent property which was a traditional Bhutanese house converted into a small hotel and has the warm and cozy feeling of a home away from home. Excellent traditional architecture and wooden rooms made it really warm for us when it was sub zero temperature outside. They provided us with all the facilities and the staff went beyond our expectations to make our stay comfortable. The heaters in the room and bathroom worked really well. Located right behind the main Thimphu Dzong at a quaint location. A special thanks to the owner Mr. Norbu and the manager Mr. Pema to the chef Mr. Nado who made traditional dishes with less spice as per our request. Overall a must stay property at Thimphu. Our heartfelt gratitude to Ms. Sonam and Ms. Chuki too. Thank you :-)

Central location right on the main road. Big rooms with spacious bathroom. Rooms, public places, restaurant were clean, neat and tidy. Helpful staff. Sharmila at the reception and Tina in the restaurant were very helpful. From the room one could see the road below and mountains around. Quality of food in the restaurant could be better. Go little late but in time and regular items like butter and jam will vanish until requested replenishment arrives.

We did our travel bookings through MakeMyTrip and really appreciate their selection for us. White Tara is a good place that's well maintained with a hospitable staff always ready to help. Our rooms were spacious and the view was great as we could see the top of the sitting Buddha from our window. In short if you're looking for a spacious, clean and hygienic place then White Tara is the place for you, except it's a bit far from the City Centre.
