This is simply the best place I have ever stayed at.
From my initial email requesting early check-in and late checkout due to the times of my flights, up to my arrival, they were beyond helpful and kind. As a last minute solo female traveller i didn't have any plans or expectations. My room astonished me. Spotlessly clean, beautifully and tastefully decorated in a simple Myanmar traditional style with western comforts like a huge new mosquito net over bed, a large comfortable queen? bed, sitting area, enormous bathroom with a luxurious waterfall shower and enough space for 10 more people... The pool was also spotless and beautiful, as are all the grounds. Very well maintained gardens.I think i was one of only a few staying as I received very personal attention at dinner in their restaurant (excellent food, probably a bit expensive for what it is, but it was good quality). Staff were so polite and sweet, telling each other to be quiet around me, bringing out citronella candles, making my cocktail... So cute. The reception ladies both helped me book tours. On my first day after arrival she arranged a private driver to take me around Old Bagan and to see the sunset. Over the next 2 days she arranged various tours for me and i had a fantastic time. It was wonderful to return to a spacious room and cooling pool after a long day. The staff are amazing, location fantastic, and rooms faultless. I can't recommend Blue Bird enough.
