The hotel is set on the far end of the lake from the jetty and takes about 45 mins to get there by boat, which was a pleasant journey. Most of our sightseeing was at this end of the lake so we didn't have to 'commute' far each time we went out. The hotel is all on stills which is... More

what a lovely place to be, in the middle of the lac, surrounded by the nature, and some fast boat passing, with great sun set views and sun rise, a bit foggy to give you outstanding pictures and a real pleasure. service is great people are nice, unfortunately, there is no window in the bathroom, so if your heater is...

This in Australian terms is a tired 3 star motel. The accommodation is fairly basic and the food and service is not what you are used to in normal travel.. The hotel is run down, there is a real lack of maintenance and the staff are dressed in hoodys... a bit much over breakfast which was badly cooked!

You are definitely in the middle of the lake as it's a 45min~1 hour boat ride from Nyaungshwe. Being close to the major tourist attractions in Inle was a plus. Each room is built on stilts directly on the water and has a deck. Sunrise and sunset were magnificent-- we sipped Myanmar whiskey and smoked Myanmar cigars that we had... More

45 minutes by fast boat over the wonderful Inle lake to this lovely rustic stilted series of bungalows. The setting is gorgeous, your bungalow is detached with a balcony and windows designed to take in the sunrise/sunsets. The resort is perfectly positioned to do all the major sightseeing on the lake all by boat of course. The area is beautiful... More

This hotel is a good option for Inle Lake. We were told that it is run by the Inthar village and is a fair employer to a number of local people which is a plus. The highlight was definitely the room - stilt-house style lodging over the water with an outdoor shower and a rustic feel. The only problem with... More

This is a fun place to stay. The rooms are "rustic-plush" with outdoor showers, mosquito netted beds, nice balconies and are, of course, built on stilts over the water. Yes, it takes a long time to get there and the boat traffic is noisy, but that is part of the charm as far as I am concerned. The place is... More

What an experience to stay at this resort. Our bungalow was perfect, service was great and the lake experience needs to be done once by all. We loved Inle Lake and all that it had to offer. Since boats are the only transportation, it was great fun to have this be the mode of travel. The pool at Shwe Inn... More

Where do I start in extolling the virtues of this unique hotel? The Shwe Inn is a floating hotel with beautiful, clean bungalows situated over the water. It was in a great location to visit all that Inle Lake has to offer. The staff were extremely accommodating, very friendly and kind. Breakfast was good as were all the meals we... More
