Two Dragons Hotel , Myitkyina
Myanmar, Kachin State

There are limited options in the town of Myitkyina in Myanmar’s Kachin State and this is a good option. Guests generally visit Myitkyina as a base for exploring tribal villages and because of its relaxed riverside atmosphere. It is the most northernmost point of Myanmar that is currently accessible to tourists, so if you’ve made it this far, you’ll get a real sense of being off-the-beaten-track.

Here you’ll find clean, spacious and bright rooms, buffet-style meals and friendly staff. The rooms are not necessarily stylish or sleek but they’re certainly big, clean and air-conditioned with comfortable beds and wooden furnishings. There are 12 entry-level standard single rooms, 32 standard twin rooms, 6 superior double rooms and two suites. You can visit the restaurant or order room service around the clock.

Two Dragons Hotel is just a 10 minute drive from the airport and close to the river, the market and public transport, making it a practical base for curious tourists to explore.
