Tedim Guesthouse

Chin State


More contemporary in style than Tiddim's other offering, this guesthouse has clean and comfortable-enough rooms with private bathrooms and hot water available all day; they could stand a new paint job. There are great views of Kennedy Peak from the balcony. It's opposite the Cope Memorial Baptist Church on the main road through Tiddim; you can't miss the grand-looking purple and tinted-glass exterior.

Breakfast is nothing more than instant coffee, e kwa kway (a doughnut-like deep-fried breadstick) and maybe a hard-boiled egg.
