Damchen Resort is a charming spot right by the river, offering lovely views and well-decorated rooms. The service was attentive, making us feel at home, although the food could definitely use some improvement. The location is convenient, close to the town bazaar, but be prepared for some insects due to the proximity to the river. Overall, it's a solid value for the price.

I recently stayed at Damchen Resort in Punakha, Bhutan, and overall, it was an excellent experience. The rooms are spacious and elegant, and the serene location by the river is stunning. While I enjoyed the Indian food available at the restaurant, I found it to be a bit pricey. The staff were incredibly accommodating, especially when I requested a room upgrade that they provided for free. However, being so close to the river made me slightly anxious about flooding, even though I was reassured it was safe. Still, I would recommend this resort for a relaxing getaway.

My stay at the resort in Punakha was a mixed bag. The views by the riverside were absolutely stunning, and the customer service was top-notch, making for a very pleasant experience overall. However, I found the rooms to be a bit cramped, and while the food was decent, the breakfast spread was quite limited. It's a good place if you're looking for that scenic ambiance, but the room size and dining options may leave something to be desired.

I had a great time at the resort, enjoying beautiful river views and a warm welcome from the staff. The location is excellent, right by the Punakha river, with room upgrades to enhance our stay. While the room size was a bit small, the hospitality and delicious Indian food more than made up for it. However, the limited dining options in the area were a slight downside.

I had a great stay at this resort with its scenic riverfront location and spacious rooms that offered stunning views. The staff was really courteous, making me feel welcome, but the dining experience left a lot to be desired as the food was not up to par, particularly the breakfast. Overall, it's a lovely place, but improvements in the dining department would truly elevate the experience.
