Mrauk U, Myanmar
Mrauk U Princess Resort
An oasis of calm surrounded by beauty
Surrounded by lotus ponds, paddy fields and mangroves on the banks of a Kaladan River tributary, the Mrauk U Princess Resort is a peaceful rural retreat well worth the serene six-hour river transfer up from Sittwe.
There are 21 ‘Village Houses’ with thatched, monastery style seven-tiered roofs. To say they are expansive is an understated, with bright airy interiors, luxurious bathrooms and traditional Burmese style furnishings. Each of the houses also has its own private veranda from where you can relax and survey the surrounding countryside
Explore the neighbouring archaeological wonders of Mrauk U, visit the remote tattooed Chin tribe on excursions aboard the resort’s restored teak riverboats and discover buzzing local markets. Or simply unwind in the pool, relax at the traditional spa and eat real local Arakanese food at the Rakhine restaurant.

Places to combine Mrauk U Princess Resort with
Hanoi
La Siesta Premium Hang Be Hotel stands as a graceful symbol of Hanoi’s rich history and evolving modernity. Located in the heart of Hanoi’s Old Quarter, the hotel’s striking white façade overlooks Hang Be Street, once a bustling hub for trading be or wooden boats. Today, this street pulses with life, offering a tapestry of cafés, artisan shops, restaurants and traditional market stalls.
Inside the hotel, La Siesta Premium Hang Be is a sanctuary of elegance. The interior exudes a calm sophistication, with a neutral colour palette of soft creams and warm accents, enhanced by thoughtful lighting that creates a serene atmosphere. Polished wood, elegant period furnishings and traditional motifs offer a sense of heritage, while modern touches ensure comfort and luxury at every turn. Each room is designed with comfort and tranquillity in mind, featuring plush furnishings, elegant décor and modern amenities to make guests feel at home.
For a truly memorable dining experience, ascend to Cloud Nine, the hotel’s restaurant. Situated on the 9th floor and wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows, Cloud Nine offers panoramic views that sweep across Hanoi’s storied rooftops, the shimmering Hoan Kiem Lake and the serene Red River. The restaurant’s name, inspired by the phrase “on cloud nine,” encapsulates the bliss you’ll feel as you gaze out over the city and savour exquisitely prepared dishes. Sunlight floods the space during the day, while in the evening, the city’s lights twinkle beneath you, enhancing the sense of floating above Hanoi’s streets.
For guests who prefer dining in privacy, the hotel’s in-room dining service brings the best of Cloud Nine’s menu to your door, allowing you to enjoy a delicious meal in the comfort of your own space. Meanwhile, the hotel’s La Spa offers a serene retreat where you can rejuvenate body and mind with a range of luxurious treatments.
