2-Star Hotels in Shan, Myanmar

The most commendable thing about this hostel is its breakfast. There are two kinds of fruits, drinks, noodles, rice, etc. You can eat well. There are only 150,000 people in Hsi Bab (many of them are still in villages), so it’s not far from living here to the city.

Everything was nice. The only one thing I didn't like much is they booked ticket for me for awful bus. It costed 60000 kiyat for 330 km from Shwenyaung to Nyaung U. We were on the way 15 hours!!! Before I paid 45000 kiyat for 630 km from Yangon to Mandalay and it took 12 hours. It was a big mistake to book bus ticket in this hotel (((

Замечательный отель, заботливая хозяйка, которая поможет решить любой вопрос, подскажет куда сходить, где что купить. Завтрак сытный и разнообразный ❤️

Golden Kalaw Inn is walking distance from the local market (every 5 days). The room is spacious and has 3 single beds and every thing you need. Beds are clean but a bit hard according to western standard. Only big towel is provided and no towel to dry your feet coming out of the shower. The internet is good and the manager made sure that there was power all the time. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

I give this place an average review and not a poor one because we paid only $52 for 7 nights and the staff were lovely. However, there were a great deal of negatives which I feel I have to share. (This is not to say that every room in the guesthouse is the same but I could not know) - ‘Breakfast’ is a cold pancake with sauce. The pancake was so awful I could not eat it. (There is an option to pay 1000kyats for toast and an egg but we didn’t bother. There are plenty cheap restaurants to eat at nearby). - Our room was right underneath the water pump which seemed to be constantly banging on our ceiling. - There was not always hot water - The room was not very clean. They asked us if we wanted it ‘cleaning’ whilst we were staying longer than normal so they did on our 4th day when we asked but didn’t even replace our towels. - The electricity went off a lot. - The mattress was not a proper mattress so quite hard. - Plug socket was at head height on the opposite wall to the bed head. This room might be ok if you have a very low budget or are only staying in Inle for 1 or 2 nights but was not enjoyable for our week stay.

Hillock villa is walking distance to local market of Kalaw and close to the click tower. They serve an awesome breakfast in the garden if the weather allows! The beds are comfortable, and the room is spacious with one double and one single bed. The bathroom had a bathtub, but to take a shower was a bit hard as the shower hose was not very long for us tall foreigners 😉 Parking can be a challenge as the road is steep and the parking place is not big enough to easily turn your car. We enjoyed our stay very much and for sure book again next time in Kalaw!
