5-Star Hotels in Mandalay, Myanmar

A very beautiful hotel, which gives preference to everything natural in the interior and design. Here, even the boards with a request to clean the room or not to disturb are made of wood. We were given a huge room in a separate house. Sometimes there were power outages, but they were short-lived. WiFi worked well. It seemed to me that we were the only guests of the hotel on the first day, then other guests arrived. The hotel has a large swimming pool with a view of the Bagan pagodas. There are sun loungers near the pool, and in the evenings, tables are set up for dinner. The hotel has a spa, where an hour of massage costs $ 5. There is a gym, but due to the lack of people wanting to, the air conditioning was turned off, and I did not wait for the room to cool down. Breakfast at the hotel is a la carte. You can order all the items. We liked the noodles with vegetables and omelettes. Every day we dined at the hotel restaurant. Of the cocktails, we liked the Mai Tai. Of the food, pasta with chicken. Some dishes were spicy for us, but this is typical for Asian dishes. We didn't like the desserts. The service at the hotel was top notch. All the staff try very hard. You can walk from the hotel to the 12-story tower, which offers views of the whole Bagan. The hotel can call you a tuk-tuk for a trip to the temples. We stayed here for 3 nights. It was enough to ride around the temples for half a day. I don't recommend riding all day because of the heat. We forgot the cable at the hotel, we found it on Inle Lake in another hotel in the chain. We called the reception, made arrangements, and the cable was brought to us for free the next day. It was very nice, considering that it's a 7-hour drive by car. I recommend the hotel if you come to see Bagan.

The Hotel is quiet old. Our room has some broken floor. However, we really appreciate with warm welcoming from the staffs, polite and friendly front and coffee shop staff, the quiet and nice atmosphere (we can walk around the very wide nice clean hotel compound both in the morning and evening), wide and spacious room and bathroom, nice traditional buffet breakfast (even there's not much choice but we had more than full stomach) and especially they have very tasty traditional hot milk-tea. It is like honeymoon-like-stay for us.

The hotel is very quiet in the mountains, from the hotel to the waterfall, 10 km from the city center of Bin Ulun, you need to call the city from the hotel to the city center, cost 12000MMK. It is about 70 kilometers from Mandalay International Airport and is driven for one and a half hours at a cost of 45,000 MMK. The view is very good, the balcony of the room can see the waterfall and the sunrise and sunset, but there is no other facilities around, it is a little isolated, eat and drink in the hotel restaurant, or call the car to the city center. The facilities in the house feel that the general level, there is no hot water shower, this is very embarrassing, may be the solar energy used in the mountains? ...... Breakfast and food I can only say that compared with the city of Mandalay is also a relatively normal level, not difficult to eat, but it is also like that. The service was good, because the car arrived at the airport at 6 o'clock in the morning, the breakfast did not start, but it was very intimate to pack some food.
