Central for visiting most sites. Near to Station.
Loved this hotel. Easy to get to from the airport and a great welcome from the reception staff. Arrived slightly early so room was not ready for occupation. Supplied with cold fruit juice while we waited. Room was spacious clean with a great bathroom and real comfy bed. Housekeeping is superb clean towels everyday bed made up and room made spotless. The breakfast and staff in restaurant were terrific. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Highly recommended.

Great Hotel.
Staff is really friendly and helpful. Good location.
Drinks and food are a little expensive, priced in US dollars, but breakfast is included and it's really good!

Advise not to stay here
No hot water, the air conditioning can't be turned on until some time after you come in and turns off sporadically, and the staff aren't trustworthy. Also as the other reviews say it's quite loud. Linens don't appear clean. Bathroom not as in the pictures but more like a wet room, no water pressure maybe because there's no hot water and nowhere to put anything. More like a 1* hotel.

Nearby noise can cause insomnia
People who like to sleep quietly and comfortably, it is best not to come to this hotel.

Room was nice. Bathroom was very well stocked with items Sochi as a shaver and sewing kit. Fridge was roomy and bed was comfortable.
However, ‘complimentary’ items such as the mini bar could cost as much as 2500 Kt depending on what you drank.

Good option for Mandalay
Great service, nice and clean rooms. I did not like the fact there is a metal layer in front of windows. Could have a better breakfast.

Nice hotel but could be better
We had two stays in this hotel, either side of a trip to Bagan. The room we booked was a suite, it was comfortable and clean. However the room was at the front of the hotel and there was traffic noise all the time, especially from people using their horns, which drivers in Mandalay do a lot. There was also a problem with general noise as all the windows seemed to be ill fitting with gaps between window and frames. The suite was on the first floor, on our second stay we did ask for a room higher up but were told this was not possible. We also noticed a bad drain smell a few times. We ate in the restaurant a few evenings, however the food was bland and uninspiring, there was also a cultural puppet show which appeared to be on most nights. It was nice on there first night but after that not so much as it was the same show. Staff in the restaurant were very polite and friendly however refused to take any dollar notes that were marked or old.

Value for money
Hotel : Cheap, clean, comfortable, friendly & helpful service, fast wifi
Location : Quite noisy (honk) as the hotel is on the main road and next to the junction, not far from the big mall (But nothing much at the mall)
Food : Verities, tasty

Good staff and good amenities
This is a very good choice in Mandalay, though location is a bit far from the Mandalay hill area, the good service and friendly staff are paid off. The hotel generally has good amenities that you have all that you need. The staff is super helpful, we can get rid of problem to arrange transportation for sightseeing, all you need to do is just ask the staff, they are very quick response and helpful. The breakfast is standard, can’t complain more at this budget price. Would love to stay in this hotel again

Outstanding service
Staff are super friendly and helpful, we didn’t need to spend too much effort to arrange transportation or tour as the receptionist is amazing to arrange that, all we need is to ask for help only! Breakfast has various choices from salad, Asian food and eggs/toast. The waitress are very well service every morning. The hotel’s amenities are also up to standard. Overall this is a very good choice for tourist or business travellers.
