Top Yangon Hotel Reviews

Sedona Hotel Yangon

10/10 Excellent

"Good "

The Strand Yangon

10/10 Excellent

"It's easy to stay at a generic box type hotel. The Strand has pedigree (See Raffles and E&O). It's a beautiful building with high ceilings. Beautifully decorated and clean. Very pleasant staff. Quiet and tranquil. Stay here for your first visit to Yangon, and you can always stay at a generic, branded hotel on a subsequent visit."
