Grace Hotel I

114 nan myaing road. fans; hot water; private bath; us$5/15 single/double. a short walk little less than a km south of the clock tower, grace hotel i is threadbare but clean and is easily the place to relax in when in pyin u lwin on a budget. it has a nice garden, ideally suited for catching up on your journal or enjoying the meagre! breakfast provided. a nice, though nameless, nepali shack nearby provides quick and tasty 'daal bhaat,' and there are several restaurants a little further away including an interesting chinese one with private booths in the garden!

Kandawgyi Lodge
US$50-60

Privately run to the extent that anything in Burma is privately run but partly lodged in a colonial bungalow, this is the upscale choice in Maymyo.

Near Golf Club

Near the golf club and Botanical Gardens. A well equipped new hotel with satellite TV and popular with middle class citizens of Myanmar.

Pyin U Lwin has a few magnificent restored colonial houses for hotels. Unfortunately, almost all of these are run by the government. Candacraig, the place immortalised by Paul Theroux, is worth a visit but don't waste your money on a meal there.
