This is one beautiful place to reside when in Paro. It has the warmth and the staff is courteous too.
Nice ambience. A must stay place at least for a day @Paro, Bhutan
Nice Bhutanese local vibe with very helpful staffs.girls were best there to help you people.
This place is absolutely brilliant..It's Rustic and extremely comfortable and peaceful. The hotel staff are wonderful and always ready to help in anyway possible.

A beautiful homestay with a very cooperative staffgood food..well maintainedloved the peaches and apple tree..
A good home stay.
No debit or credit cards accepted so not going for 5 start rating.
Its a home stay so order your food ahead of your dinner time
Awesome place to stay! Cottages are surrounded by beautiful mountains. Lots of Apple and Peaches trees. You can eat them fresh! Great staff, very friendly and an economical place to stay!!
A word of warning. My review is biased since I had certain expectations and they weren't met. Had I gone here with fewer expectations, I may have had a better experience.
The listing for this place mentions "WiFi in rooms. Television". I had important calls to take and one full day with not much to do but stay in the room and so both of these seemed important. Neither was true. There are televisions only in some rooms. There is a WiFi dongle that is plugged into the socket in the reception and only two rooms actually get an intermittent signal. It failed completely one evening. The staff didn't seem concerned and said it would only be fixed the next morning. Television would intermittently not work and the response was again an indifferent "it'll get fixed when it does".
The place is at least a 10 minute drive from Paro town and there are no other options to try if you want to step out for a bite. Food in the restaurant needs to be ordered several hours in advance. Some in the staff were unhappy and let us know it if we delayed ordering. Or wouldn't take the order at all and insisted we convey it at the reception.
That said, there were aspects I liked. Not everyone was grumpy. Some of the staff were hospitable. The owner is a cheerful and interesting lady. There are books, 2 games (scrabble and chess) and lots of orphaned dogs in the premises. Under different circumstances, we may have had a better time than we did.
Tip: The taxi fare to the stand was 400 (two way) when we negotiated directly but higher for other guests. Negotiate with taxi drivers when you visit Paro town rather than calling them through the reception.
An awesome home away from home! Good and supportive people! Spacious rooms and good library facilities. Indian food was awesome. Everyone must try this life lodge if you are in paro!
This is the place i would recommend any guys going to Paro
The Chef Icharam was the guy and awesome Indian food..
The Hotel Owner Granny and Karma are a good host.
I Read a bad review about no proper accommodation U must be a gujju i guess.. The value for money is there and u must get yourself comfy with the Beauty of the Paro and the Lodge.
Would have loved to stay there longer.
This resort is beautifully placed with nice greenery around it. Even the staffs are always smiling and ready to help. Building itself is very nicely decorated from inside.
But the problem lies with the amenities as the room heaters does not work, hot water supply in some rooms are poor or no water at all.
They should have rate chart with menu card for the food available with them, to avoid unpleasant experience for the traveller at the time of check out.
Sets up a great environment were u can meet d fellow travellers and hav good time gathering info and d food was great and d host is so informative and suggests u d Best I would definitely com back again
HAD AN EXTREMELY BITTER EXPERIENCE IN THIS LODGE. ROOMS WERE SPACIOUS, ROOM HEATERS WERE THERE, HOT WATER SUPPLY WAS THERE BEDS & BLANKETS WERE CLEAN BUT NO T.V. ERRATIC WI FI CONNECTIVITY WITH NO CONNECTIVITY ON THE 2nd DAY OF OUR STAY ( 24th NIGHT TO TILL DEPARTURE ON 25th. FOOD QUALITY WAS POOR & PROHIBITIVELY EXPENSIVE. ROTI'S FOR 25/- PER PIECE. BED TEA ( BLACK ) 60/- & POORLY PREPARED CHICKEN CURRY FOR 250/- ( 5 PIECES ).WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND ANYONE TO STAY IN THIS LODGE. AVOID THIS PLACE IF YOU HAVE A BETTER OPTION. EXTREMELY BITTER EXPERIENCE IN SUCH A BEAUTIFUL FRIENDLY COUNTRY.
Best place to stay in Paro.. This should be your stay.. Extremely beautiful cottages.. Very very friendly owner.. She'll help you and guide you through everything around the best way possible.. and helpful staff.. Common room is a bliss to sit and have fun.. Beautifully decorated.. The view outside when you wake up in the morning is breath taking.. Like a beautiful canvas of painted mountains and trees.. Rooms are very decent and clean.. Must stay here if you visit Paro..
