Breath of Fresh Air in Thimphu

Great location in downtown, excellent service, good food! Couldn't ask for better amenities such as hair dryer, hot water, and room wifi. Only downside is that its very noisy at night time.

The Hotel Riverview is situated at the best point, where the guests may view entire Thimphu city just from the room balcony. At the first moment I entered my room I have noted that the hotel name may be changed as "Thimphu View" Thank you for your excellent honest service.
