Lock in a great price for Gakyil Thimphu – rated 8.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

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.
