Best resort in Old Bagan”
The hotel has the best location by Ayarwaddy river. My room was 717 on the second floor of the river building. The room was large with spacious bathroom and balcony. It was clean with full furniture and amenities. The dinner was great with complimentary puppet show. I did not have breakfast because of early departure but the hotel provided breakfast box for me. The hotel people were nice and informative. Mr. Sa Lim , assistant manager for F&B was very helpful and customer-based. I will come back.

Lovely Hotel”
We liked everything about this hotel...location, service, food, size of the room. As for wheelchair accessibility, it is "mostly" accessible, but quite a few steps to get into the building, The staff were all very attentive and as helpful as possible, but to be truly accessible they need a ramped entrance. There was also another step to get into the building with our room, but they put a make-shift ramp for us, and they also helped us get to the river front to watch the sunset. We do recommend this hotel.

Excellent service”
Staff in this hotel is extremely polite and friendly and they are always ready to serve you with a smile. The room is big and spacious and shower is great! Sunset bar has great happy hour deals. Resort is conveniently located near the well known pagodas around and you can easily rent an e-bike to go around the area. Highly recommend this place to anyone travelling to Bagan soon.

Beautiful hotel ”
I loved this hotel. Very authentic architecture. The staff were super friendly and attentive. Our room overlooked one of the pagodas and it was just breath taking. The location is super convenient. It is close to all the main temples and pagodas. I will be staying here again. Highly recommended

Wonderful place”
Our room faced a back road but our view off our 2nd floor balcony was incredible, looking out over several temples. We got to see the sun rise over coffee off our balcony. There is no elevator for those with mobility problems but I'm sure you'd be able to get a ground floor. The pool and restaurants/buffet were excellent. The bar staff is a little slow. It's almost like they have too many people with too little purpose. I would have liked to see more women at the management level here. The reception staff organized a tour guide for us who was exceptional, filled with vast knowledge and insight to the best places. We would go back here for sure. In fact, Bagan, was our favourite city over our 5 countries and 12 city tour through South East Asia.

It is so styleful that it is calming and uplifting at the same time”
The room was so styleful that it is calming and uplifting at the same time. I think it is my favourite hotelroom so far. The service is excellent, including the laundry service. The double bed was huge, and the matras perfect (very firm!). The SPA menu was suitable to each travelor's needs and included a Balinese massage, which is much softer than the rather spikey Birmese one. Hence, I thought this is a smart move by the hotel to offer it. Thought it was a bit odd that one of the receptionists inquired if I was going in to Nyuang-U for diner when I ordered a taxi at the front desk, and why I would not have a Valentine's diner at the hotel instead. Although the set up was great next to the pool, I thought that was too inquisitive and too pushy. Further, it is not a suggestion to make to a solo traveler. Other than that, a wonderful hotel that allows for the best location to start exploring Old Bagan.

Beautiful Hotel in Bagan”
I believe This should be one of the most beautiful hotel in Bagan. It may not be the most afforbLe but worth it. Food served at the restaurant is good though more expensive than most in the area. Great river view bar/restaurant. Overall, great place to unwind and discover Bagan.

I had issue with a super loud music festival nearby (which was going to last until 5am!), after some persistence, the hotel staff finally allowed me to change to another room so that I could actually sleep. The next day we were moved back to our double bed room when the loud festival ended. I couldn't thank the staff enough for the good night sleep as I have very sensitive hearing that is close to a fox.

Nice hotel, good location, comfortable and clean. The facilities were also great including the sunset bar which we really enjoyed. Breakfast which was included tasted great and had a good choice. Do NOT recommend the massages, expected much better for the price we paid, don’t think the spa staff were trained well. Massage was definitely a disappointment.

staff spoke english poorly difficult to communicate”
the sunset lounge service was a disaster took forever to get a drink / cheque no snacks at the bar!! use mosquito coils to ward off mosquitoes Inlay river resort would light up large mosquito coils at dusk both outside the room and on balconies daily , large fans in the dining room would be helpful breakfast cover your food with large mosquito net covers tons of flies on your fronts and other items at breakfast

Incredible location to explore the heart of Bagan”
We enjoy very much our stay in this hotel. We arrived around 6am and the hotel was really kind to accept early check-in(of course it depends on the availability of the rooms). Our room has a lovely balcony facing the temples and stupas! The view is truly magical. Breakfast is good with varieties. We also enjoyed a lot the swimming pool and river view deck to see the sunset. It is quite convenient to reach all major temples from the hotel. The only disadvantage to be in old Bagan is not having many choices of restaurants. The staffs are all super helpful and friendly. The only 2 advices for improvement: 1)the bathroom is quite outdated and moldy;2)WiFi is not stable. We had really beautiful memory in Bagan and will surely consider to come back to the hotel.

Poor room Walcott and very dark”
The staff at the hotel is amazing, they are at all times trying to make you feel welcome and satisfied, we had a great time there regardless of the poor light in the rooms and seems like an old hotel, anyway is one of the best that bagan have to offer.

Great little oasis in the middle of hot weather, temples and dust”
We had 3 enjoyable nights at Aye Yar River View, the rooms were nicely fitted out, the pool area was gorgeous and common areas were really nice with a nice view of the river. Breakfast could've been better with food running out often and choice were ok and the staff need a little more training for a resort of its stature and the price range it sits at. Things were either very slow or the staff just never got round to doing what we requested like checking for boats and buses etc.

Very good”
The location is good, near pagodas. The resort is nice with river view. The bedsheet was dirty, and the hair dryer is old and making very loud noise and I requested to change. The staff is very responsive. Also maybe due to current Renovation work, the water is a bit yellowish thus I can't use the bathtub. As the price is on the higher side, I would expect slightly better. But overall it's OK.
