Ideal for a Solo Traveller”
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.

Paradise !”
Hillock villa is set in a quiet location and they have the best staff ever! They just are the sweetest people and make you feel so at home. We did a riding trip and the moment we rode into the place we knew we had to extend our stay and they very kindly agreed to do so, we needed the rest and the extra day there really sorted us out. The property is maintained with lots of love and it shows, you won’t find anything out of place or not working. The breakfast was the cherry on top , don’t miss their Shan noodles, it’s a local speciality and it’s a perfect way to start the day. Fresh fruits and veggie samosas with some coffee make up the rest of the meal. You also get to choose between that or a huge bowl of fruits and yogurt, pancakes or the standard eggs and toast. Definitely a good reason to go back to Kalaw! The rooms are nice and comfy, spotlessly clean. They don’t serve lunch or dinner though but will help you order from a place close by that serves some yummy local fare.

Nice place to stay!”
The owner is very friendly and helpful. Rooms are spacious and clean. This is my third time to Kalaw and in previous trips, I stayed in hotels from downtown. They have better facilities and close to market, restaurants, etc. However, i didn't enjoyed these because they are too normal and not much different from hotels in other cities around the world. But, this villa is different. I can taste the real Kalaw from this villa. They provide comfortable chairs beside every window in this villa and wherever I look, I can see the forest of pine trees. The other thing I like to do in this villa is listening to the birds singing especially in the morning. Sitting beside the fireplace at night is another great things to do that we can't do in the other hotels.

Beautiful and Relaxing Property”
We stayed at Hillock Villa as a starting point for our trek from Kalaw to Inle Lake, and it ended up being one of the nicest properties we stayed at during our two weeks in Myanmar. I wish we had stayed an extra day for the peace and tranquillity.

Fantastic Place”
I was more than pleasantly surprised by Hillock Villa, the only downside was our (not local) driver couldn’t find it. The staff were incredibly kind and efficient, arranging for a taxi and doctors appointment as soon as we asked if it would be possible. The room was spacious, clean and extremely comfortable. Breakfast was utterly delicious with samosas, eggs, banana cake, toast and fruit, with more being offered if you fancied it. I can wholeheartedly recommend a stay at Hillock Villa, Book in for at least a couple of nights and explore the surrounding area.

Perfect stay at the villa. Thanks for awesome hospitality. ”
Location is great near to train station, photo attractions and kalaw market. The owner ladies are very friendly and helpful too. They are very kind and even purchased a baby bath tub for my 8mths old niece. Rooms are clean, has hot shower, simple enough but with all necessities . My favorite there was breakfast. It’s super yummy. :) thumbs up. The only little thing for improvement is should install/provide free heater in the rooms during winter freaking cold season where blankets are not enough to keep you warm. Now they charge you 5000kyats per day.

Comfy stopover before trek”
Hillock was the perfect place to spend a comfortable evening at before leaving on our trek to Inle Lake. Simple little cottage, lovely breakfast, easy to walk into the main part of Kalaw. Overall, would recommend!

Excellent value villa”
A very nicely modernised villa, set in pleasent grounds. rooms are large and clean.The villa is about a 5min. walk from Kalaw centre, with its shops and restaurants. The staff speak good english, and are very helpful if vou have any questions. The breakfast is excellent, and more than enough to set you up for a day trekking.

Beautiful Hotel to relax, super friendly staff ”
Hotel consists of 4 houses within a beautiful and well attended garden. 10 minutes walk out of the center but quiet. Lots of possibilities to sit and relax. We had one of the standard rooms, which was nice and clean even though it was a bit dark. Shower had really hot water, which was great, as it can be cold during the night. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Breakfast in the cafe that is part of the hotel was very good and plenty. They offer free tea and coffee and water refilling tanks, as they try to be plastic free as much as they can. Internet is rather slow, seems to be so everywhere in Kalaw. Stayed there for 4 nights instead of 2 as planned.

Picturesque beauty in Kalaw”
Absolutely loved our stay here. We extended almost as soon as we arrived. Great, clean, comfortable rooms with amazing beds. The rooms feel like little cabins of your own. The breakfast was really good as well. It’s a beautiful little place with super helpful staff who are very friendly with great English. Surprisingly good wifi as well. Kalaw is worth more than just a stop on the way to Inle Lake. We stayed and hiked and it was a highlight of our Myanmar trip. Absolutely stay here it’s worth every penny you will have a wonderful time!!

Great place to stay ! ”
We stayed here for one night in Kalaw during January. Room was very clean. It was little bit cold at night but the extra blankets in the cabinet provided enough warmth. The view wasn’t any spectaculous but no complaint for the price we paid for. European architecture styles were really charming, and there were about three houses total. Definitely will recommend to anyone who looks for affordable non-luxurious close to nature experiences.

Excellent”
Hillock Villa is located a bit outside the town center, but in really nice settings a bit uphill. Room was big nice and clean, but wet bathroom/toilet was not the greatest , unfortunately you often get it in SE asia. Breakfast was good, but not a buffet so quite lite. Staff was very helpful even arranged us a shower with clean towels after check out.

Beautiful with delicious breakfast but freezing cold in the room at night”
We thought Hillock Villa was charming and loved our upgraded room--except that in December, we were freezing at night. Temperatures were as low 40 F outside with no space heaters and a fireplace that was purely decorative. Staff offered more blankets, which was not a solution. They need to get space heaters/hot water bottles/etc.

Lovely place to stay in Kalaw!”
Hillock Villa is in a walking distance from the center, has lovely atmosphere and superb breakfast. The have decorated the garden with a good taste and it’s pleasure just to sit in a dining area in the morning or evening and enjoy the peaceful surrounding.

A glorious hilltop retreat!”
This hotel is just lovely. The grounds are beautiful, with lots of trees and plants with great seating areas. The room was spacious and airy, and the bed was so so so comfy. There was endless hot water from a powerful shower. Staff were friendly and helpful, and really warm. The location is a little way out of town but it only takes a brisk 10 minute walk to reach the main restaurants and shops. There are even some lovely places to eat very near by. But the main award goes to the incredible breakfast. Wow, what a treat! There's an extensive menu including pancakes, eggs (cooked to perfection) muesli and fresh fruit as well as Shan style noodles. All this comes with a spread of side dishes including fruit, banana bread and samosas. Amazing! We couldn't recommend Hillock enough. You must stay there!

Great place in a pine forest”
This place is out of a fairy tail. Beautiful homes, hot showers, good breakfast, nice seating areas, close to town but very secluded. I have been to Kalaw 6 times and had always walked past this place and wanted to stay, I do not regret my decision! We had a big group and they accommodated us all very well!

Tranquil, friendly lodging”
The owner was sweet and pleasant, and accommodated anything we needed. The free breakfast was delicious (pancakes with banana, or eggs and toast), and it was in a great location just outside of the heart of town (10 minutes walk). Good place to begin or end a Kalaw-Inle Lake trek! Also, check out sprouting seeds bakery & cafe while you're in town! Excellent guacamole.
