Stayed for a total of 2 nighs In Hotel Aurora. Free breakfast offered and clean roon with basic toiletries available in each room. Quote of airport transfer they offered was cheaper than the others. Given budget option, quality of hotel service is well above standard.
The location of the hotel is very successful: we walked to the Royal Palace and looked at all the other sights. Well, when we hired a tuck-tuck to go around the suburbs, it is largely no matter where you are taken from. Around the mass of textile shops, many snacks, on the next street a large fruit shop, in addition, on the next street there were several trucks that traded durian at a throw price (compared to Thailand). There are COCO and AEON drogeries in step-by-step access, where at a fairly low price you can buy both noodles/rice, and a variety of fruits and local specialties. At the same time the place is quite quiet, we were comfortable in the room.
The average size room, cozy, there is air conditioner, teapot, safe. Every day they put the cooker, coffee, but for some reason they don't put the spoons in the bathroom, although the box under them is standing. Cleaning and changing towels every day, the lingerie changed every 2 days. The only thing I can do is that the waitresses are not very attentive, the bathroom ended soap and gel, and since they did not check the capacity, it was necessary to kick. In one day came at 16 - the room was not removed, too. For some reason there is no ”do not disturb” plate and the next morning to us the room broke into the room, it is good that we were both in the bathroom and the door was closed on the chain.
In the evening in 20.00 turn off the light, exactly for a couple of minutes, then turn on. Very weak inno.
Warned that on the last day it would be early to leave - cooked lunch boxing and even water didn't forget. Helped with ordering tuck-tuck for the day we planned to watch the old capitals, negotiated with tuck-tucker. Very nice and friendly.
Perfect facilities, they don't have a balcony but the cleanliness and beds are perfect. Very helpful and attentive workers. The restaurant's food is very elaborate and good. I recommend it 100%.
This is one of the most reputable and best hotels in Bagan. It opened in 2005, so the decor feels a bit dated due to its age, but the staff's service is still quite good.
I recommend staying in the garden view villa. It's very spacious and much better than the basic room. The pagoda view isn't really necessary, since you'll be spending the whole day looking at the pagodas.
The video below is one I filmed myself; you can refer to it.
There are very few hotel options in Mandalay after the earthquake, and this one is quite good. Located in the bustling city center, the rooftop area is quite spacious, offering panoramic views of the city, making it especially relaxing in the evening.
The hotel is very old, even antique. With very beautiful mahogany trim in the hotel lobby and reception area.
The external gloss turned out to be deceptive. Behind the chic external facade was hidden a pretty worn-out inside of the hotel. The rooms turned out to be old with very tired furniture, once beautiful and also made of wood, and very Spartan furnishings, like a table, a chair, a stool and 2 armchairs without foam rubber. The floor is bare. There is not even a carpet on the floor, which is strange for a 4-room hotel. The view from the window is a matter of luck. The room has air conditioning, a refrigerator, a kettle with mugs and a carafe for water. The bathroom is in a terrible state: the tiles on the floor are all broken and on the walls too, as if they had been shelled. Everything is in glue and carelessly smeared cement. The plumbing is also old and rusty.
The food in the hotel is good, but nothing more. It was confusing that the sausages (meat dish), for example, at the counter were thinly sliced and were not in a bain-marie, but on a regular portioned plate, over which the cooks stood and watched how many pieces the guest would put on himself - 1/5 or even 1/3 of a sausage. But there was plenty of local tasty noodles and, as usual, rice. There were also pieces of dried yesterday's fried fish and yesterday's fried chicken, chopped into pieces with a cleaver right with the bones. But it was deliciously cooked, even though it was yesterday's. As they say - the leftovers are sweet. There were no vegetables either. But there was watermelon in unlimited quantities. Various drinks. From the pastries, muffins and croissants. In general, a 4.
Now the main big minus. This is the pool. We actually chose this hotel for its presence (and also for the beautiful lobby interior, which turned out to be just tinsel). So we didn't dare dive into the pool: already on the approach to it, 20 meters away, the smell of chlorine began ... When we entered the premises itself (an indoor pool - from the old days), the stench of chlorine simply cut our eyes and nose. We decided that human health is above all else and went back.
The hotel itself is located on the central avenue, but far from the center and attractions. We walked about half an hour to the nearest supermarket, we would have gotten there faster, but the sidewalks are broken with large holes above the storm drain - we had to walk carefully so as not to break our necks.
So if you do stop by here, use a taxi to go to the shops. There is not a single mini-market nearby.
In general, the hotel is only for spending the night after a long journey and that's it.
It's sad that we were taken in by the beautiful photos of the interior...

OOlgaZzA luxurious resort right on the banks of the Irrawaddy. Beautiful, well-maintained grounds, a large and clean pool, soft lawns, and helpful staff. Excellent and inexpensive spa. Downsides: breakfasts are weak. The Sakura rooms we stayed in were very modest, though clean, with old towels and peeling plaster. 5 for the grounds, 3 for the rooms and breakfast.

YYEE THENGI stayed at Holidays Pier Hotel for 2 days during my business trip on November 2025 . The room was beautifully and clean. The location was perfect with city view. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable stay. However, the air conditioning in our room was a bit noisy. Overall, it was a delightful experience.

GGuest UserExcellent staff and nice simple spa. Restaurant average and expensive but breakfast is good. Grounds beautiful but not well maintained, pool is rarely cleaned and garbage never removed. Overall a nice hotel but for the price, a bit more is expected!
