The Hotel @ Tharabar Gate, Bagan

This is a lovely hotel and given that it is owned by a local business man, who has built it up from a small guesthouse, and that it has the best location - a literal stone's throw from the temples - it is definitely the place to stay. Situated around a pretty garden, all of the 82 rooms are spacious and stylish, there is a decent sized swimming pool, and nice open-air dining area. There is free, although slow, WiFi available in the communal areas and the location is second to none. With no entrance as such you can simply walk from the hotel right into the temples.

Thiripyitsaya Sanctuary Resort, Bagan

A former government hotel, now leased to and run by a Japanese company, the Thiripyitsaya Sanctuary Resort is perfectly situated on the banks of the Irrawaddy River. It consists of 76 rooms mostly set in semi-detached bungalows amongst 24 acres of landscaped gardens. The rooms and suites are simply decorated using Burmese design, with use of wood and local materials, each with a veranda overlooking the lush gardens or river. Originally built in 1973, with a beautiful lap pool set in the gardens and an outdoor restaurant, both with superb river views, and a sanctuary spa, the resort is a real haven of tranquility after a day of exploring the temples.
