Tara Phendeyling Hotel

We enjoyed a very lovely stay at this centrally located hotel in Thimpu. Check in was a breeze and the hospitality excellent! Our room was simply decorated and very comfortable, with great hot water and water pressure. It was also quiet--a plus since the hotel is next to a main road. The beds were a bit hard, but I think that's standard in Bhutan. Pillows were oh so perfect for sleeping. Heat worked very well (important since it was chilly at night). The buffet breakfast was a little limited --there was French toast that was just OK, chicken sausage, potatoes (like French fries but regretfully on the 'cool' side, not hot and fresh)), and fruit (superb watermelon chunks and tart pineapple). Coffee was yummy! I asked for plain toast and butter since I don't eat regular breakfast foods ((prefer yoghurt and pastries). We enjoyed a 4 course dinner that was primarily veggie but included a chicken dish. Food was yummy and local wine was a nice addition. Staff was extremely helpful with the few question we had. In the front of the hotel is a bakery and you can smell the delicious baking goods early in the morning (surprising that none were served with breakfast). Overall, we had a great stay!!!
