The hotel's Governor's Suite was stunning but the regular rooms weren't as special as advertised. The room I stayed in was spacious and well-appointed with a really comfortable bed, though.

My room, while not as luxurious as the Governor's Suite, was spacious and had a very comfortable bed.

Service

The service at the hotel was incredibly attentive and friendly. From decorating our room with rose petals to preparing our favorite dessert for dinner, the staff went above and beyond. They were helpful and professional, but at times a bit too attentive.

Location

The hotel is set in beautiful gardens, away from the noise and traffic of downtown Yangon, creating a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. It's also conveniently close to key pagodas in a beautiful central location.

The hotel's rooms were not at the same level as the excellent service and spacious outdoor facilities. The rooms were comfortable and nice to walk around, but there might be some noise due to the AC and power units located at the back of the hotel. The service was really helpful in organizing dinner and spa arrangements, and the staff were very cordial. The location was top-notch within a lovely garden, but it may require a taxi or car to access main sites and restaurants. The hotel facilities are excellent with superb amenities and a beautiful pool.

Staying at this hotel was like a breath of fresh air in the beautiful parc with peacocks. The traditional design of the rooms, furnished with teak and a mosquito net over the bed, provided a cool and relaxing oasis after a long hot day, although the absence of opening windows was a bit claustrophobic given the lovely surroundings. The service was top-notch, with a warm welcome and attention to every detail, especially from exceptional staff like Ella. The location, nestled in the colonial quarter near iconic pagodas and against a stunning garden backdrop, offered a mix of convenience and tranquility. The dining experience, despite a slightly tired buffet selection, showcased a variety of Western and local classics, complemented by a lovely poolside setting.

The dining experience, set on a veranda overlooking the pool, offered a wide selection but was a bit let down by a tired-looking buffet. However, the variety of both Western and Myanmar classics with free-flow sparkling wine was a nice touch.

The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives, with comfortable rooms filled with dark wood and local art but lacking in views, friendly service that attends to every detail, a location that allows for walking to nearby attractions but is a bit far from the city center, incredible dining options in a pretty setting, and average facilities.
