Silver Cloud Hotel

Spent an excellent 2 nights at the Silver Cloud as the start of my holiday in Bhutan. Super friendly and helpful owner and staff. They organised a great couple of days for me to really get a flavour of the Paro region. The room was very comfortable, thoughtfully pre warmed. Had my main meals here also. Totally recommend staying here, great value and comfort. If heading to Bhutan would not hesitate to book again.

I have mixed feelings on this property. I have heard that it is a newer hotel, so they just need help with a few areas, then it will be a great stay. The staff were wonderful, so friendly and charming and really wanted us to be comfortable. But they lack a few things to make us really comfortable. The beds were really uncomfortable....ours drooped in the middle making it really tough for a belly-sleeper. There were so many light switches, it was a challenge to find which ones did what. Labels would really help here. There was no extra roll of toilet paper, so it was quite awkward when the roll was empty and someone needed more TP. We eventually found an extra roll in the closet, but why there? It needs to be in the bathroom. Wished there were more hangers. One hanger isn't enough for a couple to use. Food here was just OK. Bar service was just OK; the issues was drinks weren't cold and we all wanted cold drinks after a hot day in teh sun. The back yard was beautiful...very lovely setting. Bathroom had a funky smell in it, each time that we returned to the room. We opened windows and aired it out and smell disappeared. It reminded us as if the plumbing was all connected, smells and everything.

Very big rooms, large and confortable bed, very good location (Tiger nest monastery, hot Stone bath) However the best point is the restaurant-excellent chef, Bhutanese and Indian cuisine), local beer but also red wine, very nice people at reception desk and in restaurant
