Belmond Governor’s Residence

Top choice in Yangon


The epitome of colonial luxury, the Governor’s Residence was first built in 1920 as a guesthouse for important nationals of the Kayah ethnic group. The handsome rooms have teak floors, cloud-soft beds and stone baths with rose-petal water. The pool merges gently into the lawns and sparkles with reflected beauty.

A major plus is the excellent range of free daily activities, including yoga and bike rides.
