Le Meridien Thimphu

In a prime central location, the five-star Le Meridien Thimpu offers modern designer flourishes in place of traditional Bhutanese trim. Wood-panelled rooms are lavishly appointed, with stylish designer rugs and good city views. Other perks include a top-notch spa, a gym and pool, and the excellent Sese Shamu restaurant, serving delicious pan-Asian cuisine (dim sum, Thai curries and more).
