From the hotel
Completely recreated to reflect the epoch of the 1920s and 1930s, the two-storey late-Victorian colonial mansion successfully resurrects its legendary charm and grandeur. Aureum Resort at the Governor’s House is an indulgent oasis for the modern traveller.
From Hanuman
It is worth indulging in one of the suites in the striking 'Governor's House' to appreciate the nostalgic atmosphere of the place. The bungalows are also spacious and comfortable and are connected to the main building by electric golf buggies, which feels a little surreal in this relatively remote part of Myanmar. Nearby attractions include the National Kandawgyi Gardens, laid out by the British in 1915.
