Summit Parkview Hotel

Just like the neighbouring Yangon International Hotel, the Summit Parkview was built in the mid-1990s. However, it rose at a much faster pace, visibly leaving little time to draw up meaningful designs. It received a facelift recently, although compared to its more exuberant neighbour, the hotel’s façade remains pretty bare. One of the few notable features is its driveway, which imitates Burmese temple design. You may not be entirely surprised to learn that the Singapore-based Summit Hotel Group no longer owns this property —it now runs the five-star Sedona Hotel instead.
