Tucked into a hillside blanketed with rice fields and orchards, COMO Uma Punakha has just nine rooms and two villas, styled with a blend of traditional Bhutanese design features and light, contemporary touches. The restaurant at COMO is one of the best in Bhutan (in fact the Bhutanese King often dines here). Fine-dining menus focus on local, seasonal produce, while the outdoor terrace boasts some of the most spectacular views found at any hotel in the country.
The hotel’s spa is small but perfectly formed, offering Ayurvedic-inspired therapies and a Bhutanese hot stone bath looking out over the western Punakha Valley. This valley is home to some of the country’s most awe-inspiring landscapes and intriguing historic sites, so - when not relaxing and enjoying the serenity of the hotel - you are highly likely to find yourself out and about, immersing yourself in these enchanting surroundings.
