Paro, Bhutan
The scent of cedar wood sets the tone of Aman’s heavenly property in Paro, which is located in the hills above town. If this is your first experience of the chain, you’ll soon be seduced by its understated, hybrid style, which fuses stripped-bare modernism with echoes of traditional Bhutanese farmsteads and monasteries. Whether you’re gazing through the larch-framed window in your room, enjoying gourmet food beside a crackling Bukhari stove in the dining hall or easing away those travel aches with a herbal, hot-stone massage in the spa, the experience is guaranteed to be soothing and earthy, accentuating the beauty of the landscape. We particularly love the fire pit in the grounds, where you can mingle with other guests at the end of the day against a quintessentially Bhutanese backdrop of pine forest and cloud-swept ridges.
