The facilities are excellent. It's spotlessly clean and truly the epitome of a traditional Korean hotel. All the staff are incredibly friendly. The fitness center is excellent, and with an indoor pool, you can enjoy a swim at any time of day. The hotel is so spacious that you can even take a leisurely walk around inside.

A highly satisfying hotel stay experience, sincerely recommended! This stay was truly excellent. The staff greeted us with warm smiles, the hotel lobby was simple yet elegant, and the room environment was spotlessly clean with everything neatly arranged. The room was fully equipped with all necessary facilities, providing an excellent stay. The hotel breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious options. Overall, everything was great, and I highly recommend it!!
great location. good hotel at great below market rate. breakfast probably less International Novotel standard as many are low produces. overall, services very localized. happy that Novotel still around despite f current Myanmar situation. hang on there.
The location is good however room cleanliness need to be improve; beside I found out that toilet bowl & floor are not maintain well.
Plus, few power outages along my stays where I fell not comfortable & secure - what if I am stuck inside the life?
Anyway I found the breakfast serving is good with variety foods.
The hotel is in a shopping complex , very well located , for business traveler's like me , this is good choice, it also facilitated with the facilities that most of business traveler's needed and very convenient. Many option and choices of meal , does not have to go out of the hotel
Review: The Governor’s Residence, Yangon
The Governor’s Residence remains one of Yangon’s most atmospheric and elegant hotels, combining colonial charm with modern comfort. Nestled in a quiet embassy district, the restored teak mansion, once the home of a British colonial governor, immediately impresses with its graceful architecture and tranquil gardens. Approaching through leafy pathways and lotus ponds, guests are welcomed into an oasis that feels far removed from the bustle of downtown Yangon.
Rooms are spacious and tastefully decorated, featuring polished teak floors, four-poster beds, and traditional Burmese textiles that reflect the building’s heritage. Balconies overlook either the lush gardens or the inviting fan-shaped swimming pool, creating a sense of calm retreat. The service is consistently warm, professional, and attentive without being intrusive, with staff eager to share local knowledge and assist with arrangements.
Dining is a highlight. The open-air restaurant offers refined Burmese and international dishes, prepared with fresh ingredients and presented with flair. Breakfast under the wide verandas, with tropical birdsong in the background, is especially memorable. Afternoon cocktails by the pool or an evening meal by candlelight evoke the romantic grandeur of a bygone era.
What sets the Governor’s Residence apart is its atmosphere: it is not simply a hotel but a living reminder of Yangon’s colonial past, reimagined with comfort and grace. Whether visiting on business or leisure, guests leave with a sense of serenity and timeless elegance. For those seeking a blend of history, luxury, and authentic Burmese hospitality, this residence is an exceptional choice.

Superb and gorgeous hotel near Sule pagoda, downtown area but the entrance is only one side and cannot enter this hotel from the riverside. It is hard to spot this hotel from some directions because there's no visible sign or hotel name except the entrance and Sule road side. The room is perfect comfort itself and spotless clean. The concierge and doormen and porters are professionally trained but other clerks still need training, as I don't want to see them idly chattering in groups in the presence of guests even in the lobby area. Hotel is not childpark or dance club for youngsters. Breakfast quality is wonderful and cooking staff members are excellent, but there was almost no explanation on how I can even order omelet or any food item which is NOT on the buffet table. And it was ridiculous to ask each time to receive sliced salami and cheese, why just can't I take them from buffet table? Overall the hotel itself is very good but some points are strange and not up to mark.
Location of the property is opposite to Myanmar Plaza shopping mall. It would be great if the size gate of the property could open for guests to walk a shorter distance to the mall.
Service staffs were very friendly, especially Lenna who was very efficient during the check-out process and responded professionally to queries.
Breakfast at D’Cusine was average needs improvement. There is also a Japanese Restaurant and a Korean restaurant for dining within the property.
Swimming pool is excellent especially for family with kids.
Club at basement played good music. Take note of age group and dress code requirements.
Overall highly satisfied with the stay at this property.

I came to test out this hotel for a future vacation. It is the most expensive luxurious hotel in the country. I can swear by that. Youre greeted by a welcome drink the minute you enter. I really enjoyed my stay here as there is a personal butler on call 24/7 and she brings bright smiles and complimentary tea and coffees. I was served by khoon and thae thae whom were both very professional and attentive. It was my first experience with a butler. Definitely a memorable one. The suites are massive and though you can’t expect pristine cleanliness due to the buildings age, i did not notice any dirt anywhere except for the outside of the windows.

After nearly a decade away, I finally found myself back at this hotel—and what a welcome return it was. From the moment I stepped into the lobby until the moment I reluctantly rolled my suitcase out for the airport, the experience was nearly flawless (with just one teensy quibble—I’ll get to that in a bit).
Check-in was smooth as silk, made even sweeter by the offering of fresh watermelon juice. A delightful touch!
I did encounter a minor hiccup with my luggage—it took a while to reach my room, and I had to ring the concierge to investigate its whereabouts. But the porter was so genuinely apologetic, I almost wanted to apologize for bothering him. Guilt level: Catholic nun.
Now, onto the room. It was wonderfully spacious, and while the decor still whispered “vintage business trip,” it was undeniably comfortable. In a world of modern hotels where rooms are the size of a generous walk-in closet and the lighting feels like a moody art installation, Parkroyal proudly remembers what hotels are supposed to be: roomy and restful.
Would I have loved a USB charging port near the bed? Yes. Did I survive without it? Also yes.
The one area that could use some serious love was the bathroom—more specifically, the shower bathtub combo. The tub had some visible mould on the floor, the shower head had a bizarre crush on the wall (refusing to face the actual human in the tub), and the toilet flush was positioned so low I wondered if it was designed by a committee of hobbits. Tall guests or elderly folks may need a bit of acrobatics to reach it. That said, the rest of the bathroom was perfectly functional.
My room faced the swimming pool, which looked inviting, though I skipped it in favor of the gym—and what a gem it was. Not only did it feature the usual suspects (treadmills, dumbbells, etc.), but it also boasted a yoga area, TRX setup, rowing machine, and even a vertical climber. It felt more like a premium fitness club than a hotel gym.
Breakfast deserves a standing ovation. A buffet that goes beyond the usual suspects, offering everything from local delights to Western staples, plus Japanese, Korean, Indian, and Chinese options. I may or may not have returned for seconds. And thirds.
In short: would I come back? Absolutely. It’s a comforting mix of old-school hospitality with just enough modern touches. A charming classic that knows what really matters.

PPo-YiThe room space and bathroom are clean and tidy, but there are too few sockets in the room which is a bit inconvenient. The service staff is friendly and the breakfast has many choices and tastes good. There are no supermarkets around the hotel, so the convenience is a bit lacking. Overall, it's a great hotel.

IIsfp-Solo TravelerThe staff were very accommodating, from the receptionists to housekeeping💙
I stayed here for only one day as I extended my trip by a day. Don’t expect too much from the amenities, as the hotel is half the price of others with similar facilities—which is why it’s a good option😊
The breakfast buffet had limited options but was still decent —- They have a section where you can ask a staff member to cook an egg/omelet for you, but I didn’t explore the other options (breakfast starts at 6:30 AM, which is great if you have early morning plans, as it gets really hot once the sun rises during this month)….
The hotel has a gym, sauna, and pool. The room includes a TV, kettle, hairdryer, toiletries, and complimentary water and coffee…..
The only downside was that hot water is not available 24 hours during my stay…. According to the receptionist, hot water is available only during specific hours to adhere to electricity conservation, if I’m not mistaken.. (if I’m not mistaken, starting from 9 AM, but I’m not sure until when) as they have I only realized this when I was about to shower around 8:30 PM and found that only cold water was available. I called the receptionist, and they sent housekeeping to assist…. I’m not sure if it’s a temporary thing only so if you’re concern with this, you can message them first…
It’s still a good place to stay, even if it’s a bit far from the tourist spots, as Grab is available at a very reasonable price for getting to the places you want to visit.

GGuest UserVery friendly staff and comfortable bed. Relatively near the airport. This is exactly what I was looking for. The breakfast had some choices for both ”Asian” and ”European” tastes. Not amazing, but satisfactory. :-) And the coffee was decent.
I didn't use any other extra amenities. If I had longer, I would check out the gym, spa, or rooftop garden.
There is a Spicy Hot Pot restaurant next door which was convenient for me.
CCHEE PUNNThe location is good however room cleanliness need to be improve; beside I found out that toilet bowl & floor are not maintain well.

They upgraded my room when I checked in!
There's a bathtub and the view from the rooftop is great!
There's a power outage sometimes, but it's fixed quickly.
