We stayed here for three days during our trip to Burma in March 2008. This is a very good city centre hotel, nice rooms, with a colonnial feel about the place. Good restaurants, bar area and pool side location. We did upgrade our room to a Traders Exec floor which gives you a padago view room (which alone is worth... more

The Traders is an international standard business hotel with all the service and amenities you would expect. No complaints, no surprises, good buffet food, good pianist in the lobby, top location, even a decent pool. However, if you are looking for a special experience, this is not for you. If this hotel was in another city, you would probably not... more

MY TRAVEL STYLE: I hate business hotels and strongly prefer resorts that resemble the Four Seasons, Aman, and Oberoi but try to find similar properties at lower cost. I seek out the “wow” experiences and I encourage you to view hotels I have stayed at and their respective reviews (by clicking on my name). LOCATION: Excellent. Able to walk to... more

I stayed at the Traders in January 2008. I agree wholeheartedly with the previous reviewer. This is a very good hotel with the best service you'll find anywhere. The location is excellent and very near the market. You'll need a good hotel in Rangoon because the city is falling apart for political reasons (which are outside the scope of this... more

Stayed at Trader's for 5 nights in November 2007. The Hotel absolutely exceeded my expectations. Superbly run and managed hotel with simply world-class service. As a frequent traveler, I normally stay in 4 Star hotels about 80% of the time; the other 20% at 5 Star Hotels. Trader's is 5 star in every way with the exception of the Rooms.... more

Yangon may not be a politically correct place to visit, but if you do this is a lovely location to do it from. Close to markets and the central sites, a small taxi ride to the rest it is a bastion of comfort in the busy thriving streets around it. Yangon is an anomally in tha tit has muchof the... more

A fabulous, well-run hotel in the heart of the city. The staff was attentive, welcoming and quick to offer advice on how to get around the city. Lots of smiles in that hotel lobby. The location is perfect -- everything you need in central Yangon is within walking distance. If there's one negative thing to add, it's the hotel bar... more

I had a problem with Japanese girl who was working in this hotel as a customer liason. For several times she gave me the wrong directions, marked the wrong place on a city map and gave it to Taxi driver etc. she was absolutely useless. Once we walked in the rain for 75 min to find the tea shop that... more

Good: * The rooms are large, immaculately clean, well presented and very comfortable. The bathrooms are sufficiently large and well stocked with toiletries. The rooms are overall extremely pleasant and well above what... more
