All rooms are lavishly decorated, accentuated by the use of rich amber tones and shades of gold. The decor reflects traditional Myanmar culture in the furniture and rugs. Mandalay was the last capital of the Konbaung Dynasty of Imperial Myanmar before the country was annexed by the British in 1886 A.D and exiled King Thibaw to Ratanagiri in India. It is also regarded as the cultural centre of the capital. Many artists and artisans make Mandalay their home town.
