We stayed at the Savoy in the immediate afermath of the cyclone Nargis, when many other hotels were closed due to lack of electricity.
The Savoy stayed open, operating a generator 6
hours a day and pumping water from its own well.
The rest of the time it was candlelight and torches....and yes, at times it was very hot!
Due to circumstances, the restaurant and bar menus
were very reduced.
Nevertheless, we appreciated all the efforts made by the staff and the General Manager to keep things going as well as possible.
The hotel itself has a lot of charm, and we look forward to staying here again under more normal conditions!
Once again bravo to all the team there for making it as comfortable as possible in a very difficult time.
- Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Within walking distance of the Shwedagon.

Our stay during the Water Festival was made all the better by the active participation by truck the hotel put on during the festival. Shwedagon is a very short walk away. Most other sites short taxis ride but very cental yo all.
- Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Despite the heat the Water Festival is well worth the effort. A whole city water fight!
