Any suggestions for good places to stay in or around Mandalay?

What are the best places to go in Bhutan for a slightly unique experience (read not usual tour places)?
Haa Vally is a little off the tourist route and pretty near Paro. Also Trashigang District on the other side of the country is seldom visited at all by tourists and it's right near a nature reserve famous for Black Neck Cranes. http://www.bhutanmajestictravel.com/bhutan-districts/trashiyangtse over 10 years ago
