The hotel is in the centre of Thimphu Town. All the facilities like restaurants, shops, money exchange were near the hotel. One of the staffs organized a driver for us to pick us up from the Paro Airport to the hotel. You can even see the Buddha Point from the bedrooms near the road. They even provided us extra blankets and iron when we asked for it. Overall it was a very pleasant experience to stay in Gakyil Hotel.

Being cold winters, the staff prepared the heaters prior to arrival and kept the rooms warm. Hotel obliged for late check-in since we arrived late. Clean rooms, fresh sheets, decent breakfast options. Overall a very good place to stay at Thimpu. Located at the heart of the city made it more convenient to explore the town. Room heaters were a savior in the cold and worked fine.

“Simple, Cozy hotel with a good city view”

- • Deluxe Twin Room

The toilets do not have a bidet spray. Infact no way to wash after you are done with your business. They asked us to use toilet paper. while we understand some people are comfortable doing that still it is a must to provide a faucet to wash ourselves. Was a BIG turn off. Hope they can install these asap.
Breakfast was very good. Homely taste. French toast is a must-try.

Don't book this hotel for a view or a balcony. Most of the rooms don't have balcony at all. And from majority of the rooms you can only see the next door buildings.
Excellent staff and front office.
