Strand Hotel
"The most significant of Yangon’s Victorian-era buildings, the three-story Strand Hotel opened in 1901 not far from the Yangon River docks, where you can still watch the daily theater—longboats being loaded with baskets of fruit; impromptu cooks squatting over hissing cauldrons of oil—that defines this river town. Inside, the 31-suite property, which reopened in November 2016 after a six-month renovation, evokes a ’30s-inspired cosmopolitanism, with black-and-white-striped faille curtains in the guest rooms and, more playfully, lipstick-red Myanmar rattan chairs in the café."
