Perfectly located near some amazing pagodas. Rooms are lovely and the pool perfect after a day "in the field". More

Great place to rest and relax after a day of temple viewing. Stayed here and spent most of my time in the pool as part of The Global Scavenger Hunt travel adventure competition...and enjoyed the place. Right outside I hired a horse carriage for a day and ate nearby at Star Beans restaurant...safe, cool and a great place. More

This is a really lovely hotel in a fabulous setting just outside the old moat and city wall, and within easy walking distance of some of the pagodas. Pony carts are located outside the hotel entrance if you want to travel to some of the more distant temples. The reception and seating area is in a tall roofed open walled... More

My husband and I stayed at this property for two nights in late April. Good location in Old Bagan, very convenient for visiting the Temples and surrounding areas. Our room was comfortable but the lighting poor however this is an issue that we encountered everywhere we stayed in Myanmar. There was an outside patio seating area with sun loungers at... More

Great hotel just minutes away from the ancient temples of Bagan. The room was large and clean, we had expected something smaller as we booked the standard type. Staff were friendly and helpful. Nice touches here and there - we came back every night to find petals on our bed, and our room sprayed to prevent mosquitoes. As for the... More

The hotel is really nice. The lobby is beautiful, nice area for relaxing and also the pool is a perfect place to have breakfast. The room is nicely decorated, bathroom a bit outdated. Very nice staff and the spa/massages are really relaxing after your sightseeing trip climbing up the pagodas. Stay in Bagan at least for 2 full days, it... More

Positives: very lovely setting, very large, clean, modern rooms, friendly staff, nice pool area Things that could be improved: bath room was not to the same standard than the rest of the hotel, water in pool was not treated therefore green. Despite the two points mentioned for improvement, I gave the Hotel the best rating due to his overall appearance... More

Beautiful hotel in a perfect location by the ancient Gate and many of the famous temples. I was concerned about some reviews saying the pool was not clean. It was delightful when we stayed there, warm water and certainly clean. The perfume from the frangipani trees surrounding the pool adds to the bliss of swimming there after a morning of... More

We stayed here for 4 nights and arrived from the boat from Mandalay a little tired. We had turned up on the first night of the festival at the nearby Ananda Pagoda. Unbelivable, so many people but so good an experience, we were given earplugs by the reception as the music went on all through the night, which wasn't what... More
