SHANGRI-LA International Hotel Management on Saturday broke ground for its second hotel in Yangon, Myanmar.
Located on the banks of Kandawgyi Lake, the 350-room Lakeside Shangri-La slated for opening in 2017 is near the new Shangri-La Residences, Yangon, which is also managed by Shangri-La.
The property will feature three restaurants, two bars, meeting and convention space, a health club, and an outdoor swimming pool. Guests will also have access to Kandawgyi Nature Park and Yangon Zoological Gardens surrounding the lake.
The Hong Kong-based hotel group has been operating in Myanmar since 1996 when it opened the 334-room Traders Hotel, Yangon.
