This hotel is next to the ancient Tharabar Gate, through which you travel into old Bagan. The hotel is a genuine 3-4 star place. Staff are very helpful; English is widely spoken; breakfast ( buffet) is adequate if not spectaular; and the room was big and very comfortaBLE. pLUS, THGE HOTEL HAS A POOL, WHICH IS A GREAT ASSET IN...

Not only does this hotel have the best location, but it's also one of the best. The breakfast buffet is better than many hotels in Myanmar. The regular meals are okay, but the set menu has a good variety of dishes. The rooms are large, and very relaxing. The staff are overly nice and attentive. The only drawback is during... More

Location is fantastic (and a stone throw away from Bagan's excellent "Be kind to animals" restaurant :-) Hotel rooms are worth the money. The rest is ridiculously overpriced: - beer for 5 USD? - pasta for 9 USD? The swimming pool was not working for the entire duration of our stay (a common theme across our travel in Myanmar). They...

We stayed here for two nights and enjoyed our stay. The rooms were large and very comfortable. Breakfast was also quite good. The staff, however, was largely disengaged and hard to track down if you needed something. For example at breakfast you had to go find a waiter to get coffee, to order lunch by the pool you had to...

I have just had 2 very enjoyable nights at The Hotel @ Tharabar Gate, Bagan - and enjoyed every aspect of my stay. Very nice bedroom/villas. Excellent breakfast (didnt have any other meals here) lovely pool set in very attractive garden setting - and VERY nice staff. If I'm ever back in Bagan I'll be sure to check in here... More

I can't figure out why anyone would complain about this hotel. First off, it is absolutely lovely -- in terms of the grounds, the rooms, the pool, and staff. Rooms were spacious with high ceilings and clean linens. Most importantly, the air-conditioner was excellent -- very important if you're there in 108F degree heat, as we were! One day we... More

The location of this hotel is unbeatable - right in the heart of the temples of Old Bagan. It was amazing how close and conveniently located that the hotel was to the main attractions and a great selection of restaurants. The hotel is nice and comfortable with the rooms being spacious. The staff are very nice and helpful. There was... More

The hotel rooms are large and cool. The gardens are also cooling...Bagan can be very hot! All rooms are at ground level and you access them by walking through a lush garden with water features. It is a great location to visiting the Bagan sites.

We stayed three nights at the Tharabar Gate, and consider it one of the nicest places on our travels. The service was good, the room comfortable and the landscaped grounds beautiful. We especially appreciated the well-functioning airconditioning and lovely pool in the middle of the afternoon when the temperature was over 100 degrees. We were fortunate to be close to... More
