Welcome to Hotel Taksang
Taktsang literally means the “Tiger’s Nest” (Tak – Tiger; Tsang – Nest), and is one of Bhutan and Vajrayana Buddhism’s most sacred sites, connected to the Second Buddha and great Tantric Master Guru Padmasambhava – “The Lotus Born”. Located in Paro, the monastery from far looks like a castle hanging in the air. It is said that Guru Padmasambhava rode on a tigress from the extreme east of Bhutan to the current location and thus the name Taktsang.
Does Taktsang Hotel have any relations to the monastery? Yes; for the Hotel is a welcoming, cozy and warm Nest, where our special guests can weave exceptional memories. At Taktsang Hotel, one can enjoy extraordinary festive moments. It is the ultimate home to luxuriate and rejuvenate and take relaxation to a higher level.
