The Hotel @ Tharabar Gate

I really enjoyed this hotel and really glad I booked it. The location was perfect and central to all the best temples and pagodas. I had a travel snafu that rendered me to miss my connecting flight to Myanmar and having to check-in a day and a half later, and the hotel was gracious and flexible enough to accommodate my delay. Check-in was smooth, and the room is absolutely wonderful. It was large, and the hotel grounds and pool are beautiful and clean. My room had a little patio with a couple of chairs to help make tea a wonderful start to my morning. The bathroom and shower were clean and the water pressure was good. Hot water was plentiful. There is even a mini fridge to cool my drinks and preserved the fruits that I brought. Breakfast is served from 6:30 AM to 10:00 AM, so even if you have a sunrise hot air balloon flight, you'll still make it on time for a hot breakfast, which consisted of bread, rice, sausage, sticky rice, tea leaf salad, soup, various fruits, seasoned veggies, fried stuff, and stir-fry noodles. I found out on my second day there that you could ask for eggs on request. The hotel staff was warm, friendly, and accommodating, and there was always a smile on everyone's faces. Wi-Fi was free and relatively fast, which did the trick as I had been lacking Internet connection for a couple of days. I loved this hotel and everything it had to offer, including a check out time of 12 PM. I highly recommend booking here if you'll be in Bagan. Best hotel in the best location possible!

Lovely place to stay. Very quiet, lovely rooms surrounded by gardens. Nice restaurant, staff helpful and friendly. I had a tour guide for visiting the pagodas and we did this mostly in the morning as it was so hot. Would definitely stay here again.

Best location, quiet, they have ever6I need here. I wanted an ebike to explore temples a d within a couple minutes it was there out front. The food and dinning is good. Big rooms and a swimming pool. If there is a bummer it's that there only like 5 TV channels so laying g around after a hot day don't count on any western news on TV, might not be there fault and probably the same elsewhere. Please note: credit cards are rarely accepted and most ATM are closed down. Also, it's super safe here.

The place is very good. The staff are far beyond great. They are helpful and friendly.

We had a package tour from Balloons over Bagan which included a 2 night stay at the hotel. The hot air balloon over Bagan was truly magical and Gavin the pilot was very informative and experienced. the hotel is good and has large rooms and is clean and has a beautiful reception and garden area. the hotel needs a bit more through cleaning as more visitors flock. The trip was made incredible by Driver MinMin who works at the hotel and was our diver cum guide for the duration of the stay. Very very professional , extremely courteous, speaks good english and is excellent driver and always keep the conversation flowing. Do ask for him when you are the hotel next. amazing visit .
