During my recent five-day trip to Bhutan, I had a wonderful stay at this hotel located right in the heart of the city. The amenities offered, including a nice gym and a hearty breakfast, made for a very enjoyable experience. The staff members were incredibly welcoming and even spoke Nepali, which reminded me of home. Unfortunately, the barking dogs outside at night did interrupt the sleep a bit, but overall, I highly recommend this hotel for anyone traveling to Thimphu.

My stay at Hotel Ariya was truly a delightful experience. The spacious rooms with stunning views of the hills made the trip even more enjoyable.

The hotel provided a warm and welcoming atmosphere, especially with the friendly staff always ready to greet us with a smile. The room was spacious and well-heated, and the dining options for breakfast and dinner were quite enjoyable. However, the area around the hotel isn't particularly inviting for a stroll, and the gym could use some improvement. Overall, it was a pleasant stay with a few minor drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The staff was warm and welcoming right from the moment I arrived, which made me feel at home. The room was spacious and offered a nice view of Thimpu, but the area outside the hotel isn't very walkable, and noise from the nearby wooden factory started early in the morning. The dining options were good with decent buffets for breakfast and dinner, but the gym could use some improvement. Overall, the experience was enjoyable, especially with the good food and friendly atmosphere.
