Bhutan was inhabited as early as 2000 B.C. due to the presence of early stone implements discovered in the region. While Bhutan is one of the smallest countries in the world, its cultural diversity and richness are profound. It is also considered as one of the happiest nations in the world. As such, strong emphasis is laid on the promotion and preservation of its unique culture. By protecting and nurturing Bhutan’s living culture it is believed that it will help guard the sovereignty of the nation.
Uma by COMO, Paro, is an intimate, 29-room resort featuring the most exclusive private villas in Bhutan with an enviable location in the Paro Valley. This puts you within striking distance of the country’s great cultural landmarks. The style combines local artisanship with contemporary style, while activities range from yoga to Himalayan camping adventures. The hotel's Bukhari restaurant is a royal favourite.
There are 2 Uma hotels by COMO in Bhutan located in two of the country’s most important regions: one in Paro Valley, close to many of Bhutan’s great cultural landmarks, the other in the Punakha Valley a five-hour drive away.
