"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."
"A national landmark in Yangon’s centre, this charming three-storey Victorian hotel offers a taste of the past with marble floors and rattan furnishings. It provides personal 24-hour butler service and a massage centre. Featuring classic cream interiors and parquet rooms, the spacious suites come with high ceilings and a cosy seating area. The large bathroom boasts twin vanities, a shower and a bathtub. The Strand, Yangon is within a 20-minute walk from Chinatown, Sule Pagoda and Aung Sang Market. It is a 20-minute drive from the National Museum and a 30-minute drive from Yangon International Airport. Enjoy traditional Myanmar massages and floral baths in the massage suite after a day of activities. Added conveniences include a tour desk, free WiFi in public areas and 24-hour room service. The Strand Restaurant offers a fine dining experience, combining Mediterranean cooking with a modern twist. All-day dining is offered at The Strand Café. You can also enjoy a drink or light snacks at the Sarkies Bar." - My Boutique Hotel (en)
"Opened in 1901 as a Victorian mansion built by British entrepreneur John Darwood, this iconic old-world hotel has long hosted literary luminaries, intrepid explorers and statesmen and underwent a sympathetic renovation before reopening in late 2016. It channels a British colonial aesthetic complemented by glorious Burmese antiques and textiles. The surrounding Kyauktada district mixes traditional roadside tea shops with trendy eateries and galleries. Afternoon high tea at the hotel’s café pairs English classics with traditional Myanmar delicacies, and the property appeals particularly to literary fans who relish sleeping in the same rooms once used by figures such as George Orwell and W. Somerset Maugham." - Rachna Sachasinh
"A luxurious Yangon landmark serves a Myanmar‑inspired high tea that puts a local twist on the classic, with delicate bites such as savoury shrimp wontons and ginger‑infused chocolate bonbons. The experience is positioned as an unforgettable, refined treat and is offered daily in the afternoon for about US$18 per person." - SilverKris
