It’s such a serene and zen place, the swimming pool area is just amazing. Great staff, I have to specifically mention Min Min with his enthusiasm and very good therapist at the spa.

Stunning hotel. Not cheap but definitely worth the price. Stunning location, incredible pool and really helpful staff.

Geoffrey

The location is fantastic, right in the heart of Old Bagan surrounded by pagodas and temples. You will be within walking distance of some beautiful, ancient areas and relics. The hotel is also a short drive from the main strip of restaurants and bars, and getting taxi (or tuk-tuk) was very cheap and easy. The pool area was divine and the staff were exceptionally attentive. Food in the restaurant was good - try the banana spring rolls!

“The perfect spot in Bagan”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 3 nights
We stayed during the annual festival which was extremely noisy - there were warnings about this in the room, but had we known in advance, we may have changed our itinerary. It was REALLY loud!
This hotel is so beautiful, with great rooms with private terrace and gardens. The pool is beautiful - if a little cold! The hotel is really well located, right next to Old Bagan. The staff were super helpful in arranging everything we need. Restaurant is great with a good selection, wine, cocktails and a good breakfast spread. Would definitely stay here again if we were back in Bagan.

The staff could be a bit less nervous. One lady at the reception insisted quite a lot that I should pay on the spot when I’ve just arrived, instead of showing some flexibility and giving the client the possibility to pay later on or at the check out time. Seen it’s a rather expensive hotel, I would have expected better service from this point of view.
Very good position, very good quality/price

“2 sleepless nights”
- • Leisure trip

Our stay here didn’t get off to a very good start. We had been in contact with the hotel to arrange for them to send a taxi to meet us at the airport. Our flight was the last one in that evening, there was no taxi there for us & we were left in the car park with the airport closed down and our phone not working so we couldn’t contact anyone. As we only have a debit card, we’d contacted the hotel before we arrived to ask how we could settle our bill & the reply was either cash or credit card, when we asked specifically about a debit card we were told no, only credit cards. We paid our bill in cash on arrival, leaving us short of cash. The ATM outside the hotel wasn’t working so we were unable to access any more cash. At the end of our stay we asked if we could pay our restaurant bill with a debit card & were told, of course, no problem. The biggest problem was not one that would usually occur, no more than once per year, as the local pagoda was having a festival, right outside the hotel, that went on for several nights. In the room was a printed notice advising that there may be a little noise from the chanting as part of the festival……and 2 pairs of ear plugs. The chanting wasn’t a problem, it couldn’t be heard over the very loud booming bass noise that went on until 3am the first night and until 2 am the second night. When we complained to the manager we were offered a different room which was of no use as the noise could be heard in all the hotel rooms. We were then offered a move to the sister hotel but as were being picked up at 5.30 am the next morning we really didn’t want to be getting up even earlier than necessary & having to rely on the hotel to get us back in time to be picked up, especially given the earlier dismal failure with transport arrangements. We felt that this was dealt with very poorly by the hotel management.

“Disappointing. Lovely grounds and settings that have so much potential but seriously let down.”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 2 nights

The service was extremely poor. We found that service in Myanmar is generally a little slower than other places, however this was dreadful. On the first night of our stay, we dined at the hotel. Our main course took well over an hour to arrive and it was barely luke warm when it did. We'd ordered some more cocktails about 10mins before our mains turned up but then only one cocktail arrived (20mins later) and we had to chase the second one down. Also on our first night, my partner had spoken to reception to arrange a late check out on our final day and had agreed a time and price. The following evening reception told us they were fully booked and no way could they accommodate our request.....many words later they decided actually they could, but still charged us. Considering how cold it is in Bagan at this time of year, we didnt feel the bedding provided was adequately warm, the beds and pillows were also below what I would expect.. All the dining is open too, yet there are no heaters so people were sitting having breakfast in down jackets (it does heat up, but not until mid morning). Finally, we both had a massage and my masseuse was sniffing and coughing near constantly yet wasn't wearing a face mask; given the current problems with Wuhan virus in Asia, I found this very concerning.
Grounds and the pool setting were very pretty

Paradise-like hôtel, à little oasis in the middle of chaos. The staff, especially amazing Min Min was super attentive, helpful, welcoming and accommodating. We arrived early in the morning and have got a room right away without even asking for it, this kindness and consideration really touched us. Min Min has given us very practical tips and advices for our stay. Everyone was very discrete and caring. This hotel has definitely exceeded our expectations!We would definitely recommend this place and come back again.

Very nice breakfast, but the restaurant is a bit expensive for the diner. Well located, in front of a scooter rental, next to restaurants, the local market and has an ATM at the hotel.
