text: Combining aman, the Sanskrit-derived word for ‘peace', and kora or ‘circular pilgrimage' in Bhutanese, Amankora, is a unique circuit of lodges set throughout the Kingdom of Bhutan's central and western valleys. The Amankora Thimphu sits in a hillside location a few minutes drive from the town centre. The hotels white washed walls, subdued lighting and sophisticated atmosphere are pure Aman. The suites combine a bedroom and lounge, and feature a king-size bed, a reading chair and a window banquette. This provides views across a landscaped courtyard, or of the stream and pine forest. A traditional bukhari is positioned between the bedroom and the bathroom. The suite's interior features wood panelling and chocolate brown walls. The spacious bathroom opens from the bedroom and provides twin vanities, separate shower and toilet, hanging space and a terrazzo-clad bath. The resort facilities include a lounge area, a library, a restaurant, a spa with myriad treatments and mountain bicycles for local exploration. Excursions can be arranged at the hotel.
