    Beautiful hotel with spacious room and friendly staff! Don't let outside pf the hotel deceive you...

    Couple of items that I think they need improvement is their mode of payment. When I was booking the room no pre-payment option available; normally, this is not a problem but paying at the hotel is a little tricky. You can pay with cash but when paying with US dollars you need to have exact amount with you since they don't have small bill in US dollars for change. You can pay with Myanmar Kyats but it would turn out you'll be paying for more because the exchange rate is almost half the value. You can pay with Credit Card but I only saw one credit card machine. Also, probably because they're not fully operational yet but hotel hallways are not airconditioned so it's very warm walking to the room.

    The hotel is beautiful-- lobby and room! Hotel decoration is reminiscent of old world charm with modern facilities. My room was also very spacious; bathroom fixtures (faucets, shower, bathtub) are topnotch and can even out-do many luxury hotels. All staff of the hotel I interacted with are very accommodating and friendly-- from their manager to bell staff. I was very impressed by the level of service they provided. The hotel is still not fully operational when I stayed; only 2 floors are open and other floors are under renovation so I hope that the level of exemptional service remains when they are back to full operations. Interestingly, outside of the hotel is a stark contrast when you stepped-in inside the hotel. It's probably how many felt during the colonial times--- hectic and busy outside with locals gathering and inside the hotel is quite and luxurious.

    The only place to stay in Yangon

    We didn’t stay long enough! The WiFi was patchy so can’t do video calls but the staff, yet again, found a solution and I didn’t find this a major issue.

    I read a lot of reviews when selecting hotels on booking.com but rarely do I provide a review myself. This is absolutely the place to stay in Yangon. The hotel is one of the most beautiful and well appointed hotels I’ve ever stayed in - it rivals beautiful 5 star hotels in London or New York but at a fraction of the price. But the real stand out is the staff - they made us feel safe, secure, always friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Myanmar has significant challenges with civil unrest and yet this hotel - amid great difficulty - stays open and provides an exceptional, safe and friendly experience. So many other large international hotels have shut - it’s a testament to the staff and owners this hotel remains open and running in such a professional way. Breakfast was delicious and we also had lunch and dinner at the hotel - all three I can recommend. I also tried the spa and had a Burma massage and it was great. We loved Yangon and we loved this hotel!

    This hotel is totally unlike other hotels. Housekeeping, restaurant, doorman so friendly so there is NOTHING you will not like. They are perfect hosts.

    This hotel is the 'Baby Strand' and located on a side street near the real/actual Strand, which is currently a Rosewood Hotel.....so this hotel is near the waterfront & the India Embassy. The hotel has won a number of design awards for refurbishing an elaborate old bank building and the resulting space is comfy and welcoming. All the staff are keen to please guests and go the extra mile. You will definitely have an attentive concierge service while staying here. I went to the airport to pick up my partner and also make a run up to an airline office near Inle Lake. So easy with the staff here....thry organised it all at a monent's notice and.they even topped up my phone. As for the design of the hotel, the library is amazing and I love to sit in there and read. (Great Collection). I just love this hotel Oh yeah!! Huge bathrooms and bathubs!!! Good views from certain rooms, too.

    I wish I could try the spa but the stay was too short

    This hotel is literally a gem of Yangon. You find yourself 1-2 centuries back in time. Very stylish, newly renovated, unique interior, special attention to details. Hotel team demonstrates service standard, they make your stay memorable and treat as a very valued guest. They kindly arranged airport transfer, transport around the city and excellent tour guide.

    the entire hotel is completely new, the rooms are very spacious and carefully furnished. all the staff are very kind. especially the Manger who prepared a tour of the city for me and also breakfast to take away on the last morning. I highly recommend it and when I return to Yangon I will stay here again.
