I had the opportunity to walk around this wonderful old colonial hotel in Yangon with just 27 rooms. If there is a problem with staying here it might be the creaking wooden floors: for some this is an attraction, for others.. well, life would be boring if everything was perfect.
Each time I have an opportunity to absorb the charm of an old time colonial hotel it rekindles my desire to fashion a round- the-world itinerary focused on these iconic symbols of a more gracious and leisurely time.
A wonderful antique Burmese armoire.
Me, the entrance to the hotel, the pool and of course the inevitable peacock, Myanmar's national bird.
These door knobs are on the bathroom doors. Two fixed knobs on the outside with a hinged peacock on the inside to latch the doors closed.
