SEASONALITY IN BHUTAN

Bhutan has a surprising range of climates. The very far north-western, mountainous region has a polar climate, whereas the southern plains and foothills are subtropical. The spring season (late March to May) and autumn season (late September to November) are the most popular times to visit with generally clear views of the Himalayas, lower rainfall and a range of festivals to attend.

THE COMO EYE FOR DESIGN

Built of handcrafted stone, wood and tiles, our Uma suites feel at once Bhutanese and luxurious with wood furniture vividly painted with flowers by local artists. Indian cotton bedcovers have hand-stitched patterns paying homage to Bhutan’s Buddhist culture and colours, and hand-knotted rugs come from nearby Nepal.
