Accor, the largest international operator of hotels in Asia-Pacific, has opened The Lake Garden, Nay Pyi Taw, the first Accor hotel in Myanmar. This newly-built, upscale hotel, is part of the MGallery Collection and five minutes away from Myanmar International Convention Centre (MICC) and 20 minutes from Nay Pyi Taw International Airport.

“This hotel opening will officially mark Accor’s return into Myanmar,” says Patrick Basset, Chief Operating Officer of Accor Thailand, Vietnam, South Korea, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and the Philippines. “This opening comes at a time when the capital is seeing an influx of visitors with a strong demand for an upscale accommodation with international standard facilities and superb services. The Lake Garden is the perfect accommodation for discerning travllers looking for a memorable hotel experience in this capital city.”

MGallery is a collection of unique, upscale hotels selected through their individual personality and characteristics.

Its contemporary, lush comfort and a sense of ‘Serenity’ can be felt throughout the property, while its five-star hospitality and local charm offer guests a memorable experience throughout their stay.”
