The Taj Tashi in Bhutan Opens its Doors
[Courtesy of our friends at Goldarth’s Review]
Next to Nepal, the Kingdom of Bhutan is probably the most sought-after destination for adventurous travelers yearning for an exotic and perhaps spiritual experience deep in the seclusions of the Himalayas. Now, you can take in the charms of this isolated Buddhist nation in luxurious environs, with the opening of the Taj Tashi in Thimpu. The latest jewel in the crown of the Indian-owned Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces, it features 66 luxury rooms and suites (including 2 duplex suites), restaurants serving Bhutanese and Continental fare, lounges, bars, spa, a heated indoor swimming pool and fitness center, and Bhutan’s first golf course.
Be spellbound by spectacular views of majestic mountains and centuries-old Dzong temples from the comforts of your suites. After all, you’re in “The Last Shangri-la on Earth”. The Taj Tashi, Thimphu is situated in the centre of the capital city, has adopted age-old Bhutanese traditions in its architecture and offers panoramic views of neighboring mountains.
Golf?? swimming pool? A dusty hotel.
Please dont bluff. The hotel is not properly open.
The Golf course in Thimphu is not linked to the Taj Tashi but is an independent course dating from the 1970s. Not only that but there is another Military course nearby.
