4-Star Hotels in Yangon Region, Myanmar

During check-in, there seemed to be a problem with the key card, which caused the check-in process to take a long time. After checking in, everything seemed normal, but eventually the key card didn't work. I don't understand why the staff didn't inform guests about the system malfunction. I couldn't access my room and had to go back to inform the staff, which meant they had to escort me to my room. The staff should have informed me from the beginning.

The hotel is decent. The staff tried their best to help with everything, but it felt like I was the first person to ever ask about where to buy a SIM card, find a supermarket, or an exchange office. All my questions seemed new and strange to them. When I checked in, I saw a bug in the room, thought it was a cockroach, so I called the reception. They sent a whole 'consultation' of five people to deal with it... Turns out it was just a seasonal beetle! The breakfasts were so-so, but edible.

Overall, it was a good stay. The hotel was clean, and the breakfast was decent. The one thing that really needs improvement is the hallway—it had an unpleasant smell. I'm not sure if it was due to humidity or something else.

Warning: Major language barriers and smoking issues at this new hotel While this is a newly built hotel, I was shocked by the lack of English proficiency at a 5-star establishment in Yangon. The front desk staff spoke only Mandarin and Burnmese. Ironically, the IT technician was the only person who understood a bit of English, which was the only redeeming factor regarding communication. Key issues for international travelers: Language Barrier: Do not expect to use English with the reception; it is primarily a Mandarin-speaking environment. Smoking Regulation: Despite ”No Smoking” signs in the lobby lounge, guests were smoking openly on the coffee tables. I also encountered guests smoking in the hallways and elevator lobbies on the guest floors. It felt as though I was in China rather than Myanmar. Dining: The breakfast buffet is strictly Chinese-style. There were no Burmese food or drink options available at all. Room Condition: My room had a persistent smell of smoke and was full of mosquitoes. This is likely because housekeeping leaves the doors wide open during cleaning.

The location is convenient for travel, with many dining and shopping options nearby. The rooms are simple and clean, the bedding is comfortable, and the basic facilities are complete. The staff are polite and attentive, the overall environment is quiet, and the accommodation experience is stable. It offers good value for money and is a suitable place to stay for short trips.

The environment is great, right by the lake with fresh air, and all the facilities are well-equipped. The service is also very good, and the hygiene is excellent. The facilities might be a bit outdated due to the hotel's age, but overall, I'm very satisfied and will definitely stay here again next time.

The hotel is well known among taxi drivers so it’s really helpful. The location is strategic near to get some tourist attractions like Sule Pagoda, Zoo and lake (3-5 mins by taxi). Toilet and bath area are separated. From my room I can see sunrise. The receptionist and security are nuce and really helpful. I felt so bad only gave a little tip to security but missing for the receptionist guy because I didn’t have cash anymore 🥲

Nice and quiet for solo traveller. The facilities are available in full. The service is good and the staffs are warmly welcome to the traveller.

It's a true journey through time, an enchan**ent that takes you to a ship from the year 1920. Several original details, such as a clock, the minibar inside a barrel, the bluetooth speaker that imitates a record player, all the leather furniture. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend it, without a doubt, it was a beautiful experience. The only point of the location is at night, as there is a night market that doesn't seem so safe and, despite being vintage, some small details lack maintenance such as the carpet in the room, for example

The hotel environment is nice. The room was clean and tidy, and the service was very welcoming. However, the room layout is quite different from the Mercure hotels in China, and the toiletries are not really worth looking forward to 😊
