Find hotels near Eastern Mandalay in Mandalay, Myanmar

My friend and I had a great time in Mandalay, and a big part of that was because of the amazing Hilton staff. It isn't an exaggeration to say I've never had a more attentive bar staff in my life, anywhere. It was almost comical how quickly an empty drink would be attended. A front desk manager even invited us out to a local pool party after work, even taking us out for some beers at a local bar. He made it a really local experience and just a fantastic overall time. I highly recommend anyone going to Mandalay and looking for a 5 star experience to choose this hotel.

First we spent 1 night when we landed in Mandalay. The service and quality were just right for the rate and we decided to come back upon our return to Mandalay. The room was spacious and clean, the bed comfortable. Nothing fancy but efficient. The breakfast offered a reasonable variety; the bread was good and the omelette delicious. The staff was attentive and friendly; English skills limited but kindness compensates. The hotel is well located and we did all our visits by foot. As well several good restaurants in the neighbourhood. Excellent stay.

Our stay at the Rupar Mandalar Resort was glorious. It provided a comfortable, peaceful and enchanting setting in which we were able to relax after long and exhausting sightseeing excursions in the heat. The staff were friendly and ready to put themselves to any trouble to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The hotel was as much a highlight as the sites in and around Mandalay.

This was the best hotel we stayed in Myanmar this time, value for money. It’s a pity we only stayed one night, just for taking the flight back to China. It's located in the east of Mandalay, very close to the Palace, the streets here were clean and buildings were new and modern, a lot better than the center of Mandalay, and you would see Mandalay Hill in your room. The design and decoration of the room was attentive and focused on details, for example, the drain in shower room, the indicators on each switch and enough desks and racks to put all your stuff, very thoughtful. Everywhere is clean and comfortable. The swimming pool was amazing as well. My mum and I liked it so much, would definitely come back.

Amazing stay! This is a brand new professionally managed hotel offering deep discounts as it builds up its local reputation (Book now while prices are still low!). I booked the month before my visit and only paid $10-12 a night (less than a "cheezy" dorm room)for a proper room with all the amenities you would expect in a nice hotel. The first thing you notice when you arrive at the Royal Naung Yoe Hotel is the friendly staff greeting you at the front entrance with a "tradiional" glass of orange juice. The nicely designed lobby includes two computers for customer use (and rooms also include free Wi-Fi). The rooftop restaurant where you will be served your free breakfast in the morning offers a 360 degree view and is a great way to get oriented to the city of Mandalay. Though the adjacent area to the hotel is lacking in restaurants, shops or attractions, hop on one of the hotel's free bikes and it's a short, straight bike ride down to Mandalay Hill with stops along the way where you can visit the Royal Palace, Kuthodaw Pagoda or even take in a "puppet show." When my taxi driver cancelled on me for an early morning ride to the train station, the hotel security guard took me there by motorbike. My only glitch was the driver the hotel arranged for a local tour so I bookmarked some of the "popular" drivers (from internet forums) on a lobby computer for future use by hotel staff.

After disembarking about 5 a.m. from Myanmar's answer to the Iraqi torture chamber - the Yangon to Mandalay train, my friend and I limped into a 'taxi' and arrived at the Shwe Pyi Thar Hotel about 5.30 a.m. We hoped to store our luggage and find a spot on a floor somewhere so we could recover. However, after looking at our twisted, battered bodies the amazingly empathetic staff booked us straight into our room and even offered us a free breakfast, which I declined but my friend enjoyed. Our stay at this beautiful hotel was enough to restore my faith in Myanmar hospitality and humanity. If ever I return to Mandalay, a stay in the Shwe Pyi Thar will be mandatory.

A small hotel tucks in a nice quiet patch away from the buzz and rush in eastern Mandalay. It is low season, so i was enjoying the whole establishment by myself. It is a bit of a distance from everything, but 🚲 is available free of charge. I rode it for 2 days to explore the palace ( stopped at the entrance by rifle armed young soldier) and Mandalay Hills. The latter was a big challenge for the sneaky old lady (and yes it is a lady 🚲 without the normal horizontal bar that posts potential danger to the non female component). Good exercise for 2 and half hours in the early morning of heat infested Mandalay's April. Hotel menu is medium priced, so I went to the nearest Myanmar restaurant about 300 metres down main road 26th street for 2 dinners at down to earth unbelievable price. I also had local snacks of sugar cane juice and fish skin at US 40 cents and young coconut water and fresh do a 75 cents at local street hawkers. So do not believe that it is too far from everything!

Very nice hotel. It would be nice if they would offer free water bottles like other hotels. They have something like "designer water" bottles and charge customers for consuming. They should just have regular water bottles (like Alpine, Oasis, regular brand) in a fridge. The weather is hot, people need cold water when they get back to the hotel. Putting some fancy water bottles and charging the customers is just a trick to get more money. Fairly new hotel so it is nice. Encounter some mosquitos in a common area. To be fair, it is hard to keep the mosquitoes out of the buildings in Myanmar where people are getting in and out all the time.

This hotel is older styled and i enjoyed it, staff were good to me. It doesn't give you a real great feeling of being amazing in any way but its definitely very good space and if you spend most time out and don't need a view its one of the best value for money and under-rated hotels. Backpackers should pool money and share a room rather than stay in the low end crapola places.

The stay in the hotel was almost perfect with zero mishaps. The entire 3 night stay there were only 2 issues. One issue was that the hotel seemed to also be accommodating a group of female locals (I think it was some form of conference) which meant that the dining hall was unable to be used for the first night's dinner and breakfast the following day which was very disappointing, however the staff did offer to bring food up to our room which was lovely. The only other fault is the location of the hotel itself. It is disastrous! It is in the very eastern region of Mandalay and is not near anything so we had to taxi to the city centre a few times for inflated prices which was very annoying. Apart from these two issues the hotel was fantastic, the staff were incredibly friendly, the room was amazing and the free breakfast had a wide variety buffet with a plethora of choices!

We arrived by night bus around 1am. From that bus station it is a ~2km walk, which we planned to do as the taxi fares were high (starting price 4k+, offered 2k when walking away). In the end, after walking away, a driver took us there for 1k (2 persons). On arrival we were greeted by friendly staff and checked in. Reception was able to arrange onward travel even on short notice. Would recommend if the location suits your needs.

I think this is a 3* hotel and as such represents good value. All the staff from the bell boys, front counter, maids, restaurant are extremely friendly , polite and helpful. The Western breakfast is the usual half-hearted attempt in SE Asia, but the restaurant does offer great local evening food at a decent price if you couldn't be bothered to go out. You have to be patient with the hot water! I am a walker and found this place close to most attractions. The palace is about 35/40 minutes, the hill about 1.20 hours. There are some good coffee shops and restaurants within 15 minutes, a few massage places and a brilliant rock bar (Yep, I'm old rocker!) - The Rock Gastro bar (Google it), very reasonable drink prices. The music is not heavy!

If you're planning on going to Mandalay, do yourself a favour and stay at this hostel. The rooms are very clean and comfortable, clean washrooms, the staff are extremely friendly and eager to help, it has a great rooftop terrace where you can meet other travellers, and the pool is great for relaxing. I've been to many hostels throughout my travels and this is up there with the best of them! Thank you to the Nan Bwe staff for making my stay so memorable!

It was my first time accommodating in a hostel and it has been a more than pleasant stay at Celia Hostel Mandalay. The rooms were clean, beds were comfortable (we slept like a baby every night) and the management of the hostel was extremely friendly and helpful. They were generous with answers from our endless questions since it was our first time in Mandalay. The location is easy to find, convenient and it is close by Mandalay Hill which is less than 30 mins with a Tuk Tuk ride. There is also a traditional Burmese restaurant just opposite the hostel. I strongly recommend this place to anyone who is new in Mandalay and looking for a value for money stay!

This is a good budget option in mandalay. We booked one night but extended it to 3. The staff went out of their way especially the two young boys who work the night shift - they made us laugh and arranged for some candles on my birthday which was nice. The rooms are relatively small but big enough to feel comfortable and clean with a fridge, snacks, tv and good working air con. The wifi was patchy but it's the same everywhere in myanmar. Overall I would recommend this hotel.

We had a very good time in Mandalay also thanks to our stay at The Rich Queen Hotel in the north-east side of the city. The family-run hotel is modest but clean and cosy, decent rooms with clean towels and sheets everyday. The shower might turn miserable, especially at upper floors level, but just need to ask the staff and they will sort it out quickly. Breakfast is good and the staff always looks after your needs and requests with responsiveness. The distance from downtown is easily coverable either by bicycle (15mins) or motorbike which are always available and in good conditions. We actually enjoyed being away from the crazy traffic of the center not just because the hotel is very peaceful but also because it is conveniently located for visiting both the north-east area off the fortress walls as well as the western one. There are a few nice restaurants in the area, some just 5 mins away from the hotel on the 26th streets, but once we were really exhausted and asked for dinner at the hotel: the staff and service was so quick and good, the food simple but delicious so we decided to go for this option again and again! This gave us the opportunity to connect with the family members and exchange basic English conversation which was fun! Highly recommended. Giada & Matteo

This is the third time I have stayed at the City Joy Hotel-- the managment is great-- the breakfast is excellent and the fooms are clean and well-maintained. The location is a little out of the city but the nearest cross street does have motorbike taxis and if needed the hotel will arrange a car. Possible drawback is that English is spoken by manager but otherwise limited.
