Hotels with Rooftop Pools in Mengla

"The location is absolutely fantastic, making it the top choice for both night tours and daytime visits to the Chinese Academy of Sciences. However, the facilities are undeniably outdated; it's an old-fashioned hotel, and the breakfast is just average. Even for an old hotel, it barely scrapes by as a 3-star. The lack of charging stations is a major inconvenience, as you have to drive more than ten minutes from the east gate to the west gate to charge. But, if you're planning night tours and daytime sightseeing, I genuinely recommend it because you can directly access everything from the hotel lobby, which means more sleep! Despite the hotel being old, the service is prompt and the staff are quite nice."

"My child and I took a private car from Jinghong city to Wild Elephant Valley on the 28th, then checked into Anantara. Anantara, in my mind, is the pinnacle of domestic resorts, synonymous with 'wild luxury,' beautiful surroundings, and excellent service. The latter two, Anantara certainly delivered on. The lobby is grand, and when we first entered the room, it didn't feel dated at all. Lush greenery filled the view from the window – a plant lover's dream! Outside the balcony was a large garden. On the first day, I spent the entire afternoon intently watching trees and birds, spotting red-whiskered bulbuls, oriental magpie-robins, sooty-headed bulbuls, blue-throated barbets, and sunbirds. I saw various fruit-bearing trees, including coconuts and legumes. Even the large bathtub in the bathroom had a view of extensive greenery. We attended the evening ritual and released water lanterns. The lady at the front desk was very enthusiastic and even showed us photos she took of a large gecko. The restaurant staff and kids' club team remembered us staying for several days. They gave us small gifts and fulfilled our request for pineapple fried rice. The complimentary travel photoshoot was excellent, capturing some truly memorable 'life photos.' Every staff member we encountered greeted us warmly. The two resident musicians from Malaysia, who performed in the lobby bar in the afternoon and by the restaurant entrance in the evening, were absolutely superb and a definite highlight of our trip. There were some drawbacks, however. The housekeeping staff throughout the resort was noticeably insufficient. We returned to our room at 1:30 PM, and it still hadn't been cleaned. This was the only time we didn't call for housekeeping, and thinking about it, it's probably a good thing we didn't, as the service speed likely wouldn't have kept up. Perhaps it was due to the off-season before the May Day holiday, but there seemed to be fewer staff in the hotel's public areas. The children's activities were almost identical every day and mostly concentrated in the mornings, which was a shame as we spent every morning at the botanical garden. Lastly, the price. It's an hour from Jinghong city, in an area where local guesthouses cost around 100 RMB per person. Yet, the hotel's calendar rate was as high as 2000 RMB. Locals definitely wouldn't go; it only attracts those who come for its reputation. The restaurant food was good, with generous portions, but the prices felt like they were converted from US dollars. We ate four meals at Anantara and spent 1000 RMB. Well, no more talk, I'm off to earn more money!"

"I booked a river-view room for two nights. The room wasn't large, but it was compact and adequate, not too cramped, and the facilities were sufficient. The hotel's design reflects a resort concept. I've been here several times before, and this time the room had been renovated. The bathroom had a separate shower and toilet. The bedding was comfortable, and it was incredibly quiet, although the bed was a bit small. At night, I could hear frogs croaking and roosters crowing in the distance. There was a reading lamp by the bed. The river-view room had a small terrace with a pleasant view of the Nanla River. I mainly came here for the surrounding environment. There's a good Dai-style restaurant called Mikanhong in Manlongle Village nearby, which I always eat at, but it's the only one I visit. It's not very commercialized, so it's suitable for people who prefer peace and quiet. There are several villages within about ten kilometers that you can drive to explore. On weekends, you can go to local markets and eat delicious food. Showering was inconvenient; the water wasn't very hot during the day, so I could only shower at night, but it was fine by the next morning. The breakfast was average, but filling. The trash cans were small, not big enough for a resort hotel. Overall, it's a budget hotel."

"The hotel environment is very good, there are several peacocks, vegetables grown by themselves, and there is a primitive Dai village next to it that you can visit. It is recommended that those who come to Ban Na and want to go to Laos can choose to stay here. There are also many entertainment facilities, and the breakfast reflects the exquisiteness of Shanghai."

"The hotel's location is excellent, making it convenient to get anywhere, and the surroundings are very quiet. There are plenty of dining options nearby. The owner is attentive and the room is spacious and clean. My family was very satisfied, and we'll definitely be back next time."

"🏠Environment The environment is clean and tidy. The location is in Nanla New District. 🌟Facilities The washing machine and dryer are very clean. 😊Service There is breakfast. You can eat something simple in the morning. Go to Wangtianshu or the Manlelong Market. The drive is about an hour. Go to Manlelong first. The market has Banna specialty snacks. Different from the more commercial night market snacks in Jinghong, this place is more local. I like it more. The front desk service is enthusiastic. I am afraid that we will not rest well and actively help us change rooms."

"It's a very nice hotel. The scenery at the entrance is nice. It's also very close to the Starlight Night Market. It takes about 10 minutes to get there by taxi. The breakfast in the hotel is also very good. I'll come here again next time."
