Le Méridien Thimphu

I’ve stayed in many Marriott bonvoy hotels but this one blew me away in terms of the staffs friendliness, hospitality and attention to detail. They made us feel like we were royal family.

Love the hotel and hospitality🤗

I sometimes visit Le Méridien for a massage and usually spend some time at the restaurant afterward for drinks and snacks. The overall experience has always been very pleasant. The massage service is relaxing and professional, and the staff at the restaurant are also attentive and welcoming. The service quality from both the masseuse and the servers really stands out and makes the place feel comfortable and luxurious. A lovely spot to unwind in Thimphu.

Fantastic hotel, extremely courteous staff, always smiling

Overdue review, but I had a great stay from 22 Feb 2026 to 24 Feb 2026 at Le Meridien Thimphu and it was my first solo trip to Bhutan. The staff were friendly, especially during the period when I was having breakfast and dinner and a few staff came up to me and chatted with me as well. During my second stay, I was experiencing mild altitude sickness, one of the staff passed a cup of peppermint tea to me and told me that it'll help ease the symptoms, which it did :) The staff was really nice and hospitable. The food at the hotel was really delicious. The room is very spacious and quiet, although the floor lamp wasn't working, hence I gave 4 stars for the room. The hotel is also close to the centre so it's a walkable distance. Overall, will stay in this hotel again when I am back in Bhutan. Just want to give a shoutout to these staff, Kezang Poida (apologies in advance if the name is spelled wrongly as it was written on a piece of paper and I couldn't decipher), Sangeta Ghalley and Pema. Please continue to keep up the good work! :)

This hotel is unfortunately not up to par with other Marriott 5 star properties. There are better hotels in Thimphu to consider (eg Pemako). The only shining light is the staff - there are genuinely nice and hospitable people. I came here for work and the stay at Meridien Thimphu made sense from a logistics point-of-view to my team. However, I wanted to change my hotel to experience another side of Bhutan over the weekend (given that it’s my first time visiting), and provided the hotel with 48 hours’ written notice of this change. The Associate Director of Sales informed me that a 100% cancellation penalty applies for changes under 7 day window (reader- beware). I am now stuck in a hotel that has a regularly flooded bathroom (after reviewing this post, management agreed to upgrading my room) and a broken glass jar 1/3 filled with cashews was placed in my room by the hotel (I hope I didn’t ingest any glass - see picture). Rooms are basic but clean; food is okay. I regret booking my first ever stay in Bhutan here.

An exceptional luxury experience in the heart of Thimphu! Le Méridien offers a perfect blend of modern elegance and Bhutanese charm. The hotel’s central location makes it very convenient to explore nearby attractions, shops, and cultural sites on foot. The rooms are spacious, beautifully designed with traditional touches, and equipped with all modern amenities for a comfortable stay. The views of the surrounding hills and city add to the overall experience. What truly stands out is the outstanding hospitality—staff are professional, warm, and always attentive to guests’ needs. The dining options are excellent, offering a variety of international and Asian cuisine, and the food quality is top-notch. Facilities like the indoor pool, spa, and fitness center provide a relaxing and premium stay experience. Overall, a perfect choice for both business and leisure travelers seeking comfort, convenience, and luxury in Thimphu.

Best best best Under Mr Nitins leadership it's the best experience for family in thimphu

Marriott has always been exceptional in delivering quality service and comfort, and Le Méridien was no exception. Every member of the staff was extremely flexible, attentive, and understanding throughout our stay. When traveling outside India, it is often difficult to find Indian food that truly matches our taste. However, Indrajeet Kumar and Ganesh were incredibly skilled in preparing our favorite delicacies. Indrajeet, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure our children were served the food they enjoyed, which we truly appreciated. Additionally, Kalden (F&B) prepared excellent drinks and always served them with warmth and hospitality. Similarly, Remi Kumari made our breakfast experience delightful every morning with her utmost geniality and welcoming attitude. Overall, the team at Le Méridien made our stay truly memorable with their genuine hospitality, attentiveness, and willingness to go the extra mile.

So so so well behaved staff, clean place, I never wanted to leave this place
