Myanmar (Burma) Hotels, Hostels & Accommodation

Myanmar has hundreds of privately run hotels and guesthouses licensed to accept foreigners. To get the licence they supposedly must keep at least five rooms and reach a certain standard. In fact many are simple family-run guesthouses or minihotels, sometimes with just a mosquito net, a fan that turns off at midnight (when the generator does) and a cold shower down the hall.

In key destinations (eg Yangon, Bagan, Inle Lake, Mandalay, Ngapali Beach), you'll find high-end affairs with bungalow-style rooms, swimming pools, tennis courts and fancy restaurants. In between (but closer to budget in quality) are modern, hit-or-miss Chinese-style hotels that follow familiar templates: tiled rooms with air-con, a refrigerator and a private bathroom with hot water.

Nearly all accommodation choices include breakfast in their rates. Staff at most can also change money, arrange laundry service (starting at K1000 per load at budget guesthouses), rent bikes, arrange taxis, sell transport tickets and find you local English-speaking guides.

At night, all hotels and other accommodation options must fill in police forms on behalf of all guests, which include the details of your passport and visa. Hotels will not have to keep your passport.
