The property sits right on the river. The bar and restaurant overlook the river and have a great view of the setting sun. After a long day of sightseeing and adventures, grab a beverage at the bar, relax, and watch the sunset. The restaurant has a nice menu for lunch and dinner. The breakfast buffet also provided a variety of options. The room was clean and comfortable. WiFi was a bit spotty though. The staff were great! Very accommodating and helpful in recommending places to go and helping us get transportation. Bagan isn’t a big place so bring what you need. ATMs are scattered around.

Sublime stay on the Irrawaddy.
This was our third trip to the area, but our first stay at the Bagan Thande. There are many more choices nowadays in Bagan, finding the right hotel requires a bit of a search. We looked them all over and decided that this one was what we needed. It turned out to be a terrific choice. We were two couples; it was the first trip to SE Asia for our companions. We booked a couple of Garden View rooms for our 5 night stay. The size was perfect. The bathroom was quite large with a tub and separate shower. I can’t comment on the tub, never used it. Plenty of hot water in the shower, though. It also had the other common amenities like a TV, but we rarely turn it on while traveling. Breakfast was served outside under a beautiful Acacia tree. Stations for on demand eggs, fruit, cereal and yogurt, hot food items, and beverages were placed about the area. We always started early and never felt rushed or crowded. We left early each day, so I don’t know if it proved to be busy later. We also had dinner at the Acacia Restaurant each night we were there. Very sweet staff. The four of us usually had something different each night and everyone enjoyed the choices provided on the menu. Also, the stand alone bar that serves the riverside area was a great place to watch the sunset. Lots of interesting boat traffic on the river to keep you entertained as you sipped the beverage of your choice. Summing up; you can pay more to stay in Old Bagan, but you won’t find a better view.

Loved the location. Loved the beauty of the hotel grounds. The room comes with a front porch and furniture to sit, relax and to enjoy the view. The pool looked clean, I just didn't have the time to jump in. Breakfast was varied and good. The staff was incredibly helpful and set up a tour guide to take me around and took care of booking my Okay bus to Mandalay.

Some of the staff were excellent and very attentive however one or two were surprisingly surly, unhelpful and frankly disappointing. The rooms are a little dated and could do with a face lift. Breakfast whilst not particularly exciting was fair value. Overall a little disappointing. I would not return here. Thiripyitsaya next door would be a better option.

Booked superior bungalow but was kindly upgraded to Deluxe Garden view on arrival. For enjoyment of this fabulous hotel would 'now' suggest to others this should be minimum room level booking. From room to staff to food (breakfast & dinner OTT) to pool to amenities all excellent. Fantastic cake and rose petal bedspread on my birthday (again unexpected) were lovely touches. Highly recommended

Loved it!
I arrived early and not feeling too well so was delighted when I was given my room key before 09.00! Great location; close to the main temples and on the river. Choose your sunset position! The hotel has loads of history which is in keeping with why someone would want to go to Bagan in the first place and had the added bonus of a pool and a great breakfast. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend it.

Great river side setting
The setting of this hotel is fabulous. There is a resort feel to it. There are 4 hotel room bungalows spread across the grounds, a nice size pool, and a fabulous outside restaurant along the river. The food was great for their breakfast buffet and we chose to eat lunch/dinner there also. I would not book a hotel room along the river, as the loud boats start about 4:30 am.

Bagan is an ancient wonder hence the location is not to be missed - the Thande, in Old Bagan, whilst an older hotel resort and a bit tired, is set so beautifully that you enjoy just looking around your surroundings...

Expensive for a basic room
The central attraction of this hotel is that it is located within the archeological zone, which makes it very convenient for visiting the surrounding temples. But this means that the hotel is located far from amenities such as restaurants, money changers etc, which are primarily based in the neighbouring town of Nyuang U which is a 20min taxi ride away. For the price, I found the quality of the rooms to be mediocre. As the other reviews have suggested, the rooms are in need of a revamp and could be slightly cleaner (especially the toilet). However, other plus points would include the spectacular views of the sunset/sunrise along the Irrawaddy River offered by the hotel restaurant, Acacia Shade. The buffet breakfast was decent, and included a spread of Burmese food, a live omelette station, and delicious home-made yogurt. For the lack of other nearby options, we had dinner there as well. Prices are high by Burmese standards (USD$9 for a simple meal of stir fried vegetables with rice) and service was slow albeit courteous. Food was okay - thankfully, less oily than usual Burmese food. In all, passable hotel but I probably wouldn't return unless the prices are lower.

Beautiful Bagan
Bagan Thande had such an amazing river view and the loveliest acacia tree where the dining was set under. Food is typical hotel food - a bit bland. But the drinks are good and the staff are great: it’s worth upgrading rooms to be in the nicer cottages closer to the river.
