Amankora Lodge Gangtey
Overview
Amankora is a renowned luxury hospitality brand that operates a series of five lodges in Bhutan. These lodges are strategically located across the central and western valleys of Bhutan, allowing visitors to experience the unique cultural and natural wonders of the Himalayan kingdom. Bhutan is often referred to as the “last Buddhist Kingdom” due to its strong Buddhist traditions and cultural heritage
In the little-visited Phobjikha Valley near the village of Gangtey, the eight-suite Amankora Gangtey Lodge is set on a forested knoll with scenic views of the valley floor and the 16th-century Gangtey Goemba monastery. Part of the Black Mountains National Park wildlife reserve, the valley is home each winter to a flock of 300 endangered black-neck cranes. Suite interiors are identical to those of Amankora Thimphu, each enjoying a view across the valley. Amenities include king-size beds, traditional wood-burning stoves and banquette window-seats, while bathrooms feature terrazzo-clad bathtubs, twin vanities, a separate shower and toilet.
