Six Senses Bumthang

The nine dreamy retreats at the hotel offer unique sanctuaries to soak up this once-in-a-lifetime destination. Eight suites use Six Senses Bumthang’s theme of “a forest within a forest”, all beautifully appointed with wooden decor inside and out, and floor-to-ceiling windows and doors that lead onto balconies amid the trees. Each suite has its own courtyard with a tree planted in the centre and views across the valley and panoramic forest vistas. Additional luxuries and space can be found in the two-bedroom, standalone villa.
As standard all accommodation benefits from Beaumont and Brown organic bed linens; a traditional wood-burning bukhari stove; tea and coffee-making facilities including an espresso machine; free WiFi; a yoga mat; and a large bathroom with a bathtub and separate rain shower.

Lodge Suite

Sleeps: 3 Adults

Forest and river views across the valley are enjoyed from this suite’s spacious balcony deck. The generous open-plan bedroom and living space lead to a glass-lined corridor with a large bathroom at the end that includes an oversized bathtub. At the centre of it all is a small garden where a pine tree grows into an open-air ceiling.

Upper Lodge Suite

The higher elevation of these suites command prime views of the valley and river from their large balconies. In the middle of the suite a pine tree grows through an open-air ceiling.

Dining at Six Senses Bumthang can be taken in-room or at the Tongtshang Restaurant. With just nine accommodation options, and room at the restaurant for 24 guests indoors and 12 guests outdoors, mealtimes always feel peaceful with attentive service.

Tongtshang Restaurant

As with everything at the hotel the menus at the hotel's restaurant focus on a commitment to sustainability and immersion in the locality; so think ingredients sourced from the hotel’s garden, traditional Bhutanese recipes and locally made spirits and wines.

Spa & Wellness

The small spa is the perfect retreat after a day of experiencing the natural wonders and sites in this pristine region of Bhutan. It boasts two single treatment rooms hosting Six Senses’ therapies tailored to the region, using local rituals and ingredients – like Himalayan salts – to ensure your spa experience has a sense of place too.

Don’t miss hot stone bath treatments, where you’ll sit in the restorative warm waters in a wooden, fire-warmed bath with views of the pines.
Guided meditation and yoga classes are serene ways to bookend your days in the Bhutanese forest.

Experiences

There is much to explore on the doorstep of the hotel, including plenty of thrills for those seeking an adrenaline rush, and sight-seeing for history enthusiasts.
Treks to the local sites can be done on foot or by bike or horseback; all guided so you don’t miss a thing. Other activities include visits to local villages, archery lessons and mushroom foraging.
Bumthang is home to some of the Himalayan Kingdom’s most revered pilgrimage sites. Discover the 16th century Tamzhing Lhundrup Lhakhang temple and wander the 19th century Wangdichhoeling Palace which is a wonderful example of traditional Bhutanese architecture. Go horseback riding to the Kencho Sum Lhakhang monastery; hike to Padseling Goemba hilltop fortress; explore the spectacular “Burning Lake”; and stop at the Red Panda brewery for a taste of locally-brewed wheat beer.

Bhutan is the world’s only carbon-negative country, and as such the Six Senses hotel group takes its commitment to sustainability in the region seriously.
Sustainability is the foundation for everything here, reflected through the management of energy, water, waste, purchasing and chemical usage. As with all properties, there is a drive to show guests the real destination, giving them an authentic, and luxurious, experience, meaning the team at Six Senses Bumthang engages with local communities.
