"I loved everything about this hotel. I was a senior travelling on my own, so based on its excellent reviews and appealing photos, I booked for a long stay of 11 nights. I intended to use the hotel as a base for day trips rather than having the inconvenience of constantly moving to other places. I wasn't disappointed - the staff were extremely helpful in booking me into interesting activities in the vicinity of Kalaw, plus arranging transport. I wanted to explore the local area on foot - the manager spoke excellent English and assured me that I could walk safely anywhere in the town. She pointed out places of interest on a map and I enjoyed many walks in the pleasant climate (maximum 25degC in late October). Every morning I had an excellent breakfast in the garden - the young waiters really looked after me. The gardens at Hillock Villa are beautifully maintained and they also grow their own fruit and vegetables. Kalaw is a fascinating place with its alpine setting and British history."

"We could simply not leave this place! We initially booked one night and ended up staying for a total of four. Thitaw II is located about a kilometer out of town, a nice 15 to 20 minutes walk to Kalaw center, so it offers a nice, calm and serene atmosphere. Surrounded by nature, Mark and his lovely team make sure you feel right at home with delicious home cooked breakfast every morning and helpful tips. If you don't feel like going out for food, they'll have it ordered for you. All in all, a lovely and oh so comfortable place to stay in Kalaw. "

"The Golden Kalaw Inn is cheap, breakfast is good but pretty standard from what I saw of hotels in Myanmar (toast, fruit, an egg, and tea/coffee), closed to where the bus drops you off and all of the trekking companies in the area, and the room and bed were spacious. The room was clean, but I took away one star for the facilities because this was actually the only place where I noticed a number of mosquitos in my room while in Myanmar (even during my trek, actually). It wasn't swarming, but, like I said, it was the only time I had this problem. And while I gave it 5 stars for location, I should add that from what I could tell, there wasn't really anything happening in Kalaw, and the only reason I could see for tourists to stay there would be if you're going to do a trek from there to Inle Lake (which I'd highly recommend if you're visiting Myanmar and want to visit the lake). On a final note, because I was leaving so early in the morning, the post office wasn't open so I left my postcards and money for stamps with the lady who I presume was the owner (I'd chatted with her a little when I first arrived, and she was really friendly and helpful, but I never got her name), and after I arrived at my hostel at Inle Lake, they showed me a message they'd received from Golden Kalaw Inn; a picture of my postcards and text saying they'd mailed them out. I must confess that I didn't examine the picture closely, as it was just on a cellphone screen, and just assumed it really showed my postcards, but that was back in June and all of my friends and family members have yet to receive their cards. I don't want to accuse anyone of being dishonest, and I don't entirely distrust the hotel myself because there is still a chance that there was just a problem with the post, but I've done the same thing in other countries like Vietnam and Thailand and everyone received their cards those times, so even though I'm sure the lady didn't just pocket my money, I guess I'll still recommend oth"

"We had booked 3 nights at this B n B just last week, and were very comfortable in the "homestay style" accommodation. Running hot water in the taps was appreciated as Kalaw is cool... Breakfast was fabulous, with fresh homemade bread and again fresh homemade banana bread, plus home made jams, eggs of your choice, pancakes...avocado from the garden... Marc also guided us re hikes and cycling routes...he ordered in dinner for us as well, when were too tired to eat out... Stay here if you are looking for value for money, a good breakfast and warm hospitality. "

"The hotel is quite good for the price I paid, the wifi was working very well and the staff was very nice. One thing I'd mention though : I booked for 2 nights, knowing I will be arriving at the hotel early morning with my bus and wanting to be absolutely sure to have a room straight away, instead of having to wait until the previous person checks out. But when I arrived at the hotel, they had considered that my booking was canceled because I didn't show up the previous evening. After 15 minutes of confusion, they gave me another room for the first night and I had to check out and check in in the room I booked later in the afternoon. So, if you're traveling by overnight bus and planning to book a room for that same night, I'd advice you to send an email to the hotel to tell them not to give away your room as you'll arrive early morning."
