Gangtey Lodge

Overlooking a wide valley surrounded by mountains, Gangtey Lodge resembles a large traditional Bhutanese farmhouse. Indeed the property has been designed to integrate beautifully into this unspoilt corner of the world and features Bhutanese-style pitched roofs and plenty of local woodwork. The interiors seamlessly blend local styles with English roll top baths, high-design European log burners, and state of the art docking stations. The views from the hotel steal the show and can be taken in from each of the rooms, the main living and dining area, and an expansive outdoor terrace with seating.

Each of the 12 suites are identical with a separate bathroom and large living area. The roll top baths with sweeping views down the valley are exquisite and the perfect place to soak aching muscles after a day hiking in some of the planet’s freshest air. Large log burners keep the rooms toasty warm. The lodge’s large communal area where meals are served features flagstone floors, wood burners, and floor to ceiling windows creating a cosy yet light-filled space. The menu features two options – traditional Bhutanese dishes and modern fusion cuisine. A bar area serves a wide range of drinks, and there are books and board games for those quiet moments between activities. There is plenty to do in and around the lodge from hikes, to bike rides, archery, exploring the 17th century monastery, and watching the black-necked cranes who visit the valley each year. The spa, with first class treatments on offer, is located in a simple timber and stone building with floor to ceiling windows again focusing on the view.
