Find Hotels in Mandalay, Myanmar

Mandalay hotels range from cheap hostels to luxury hotel chains. This place is a perfect balance. We stay here often and because of the clean rooms with aircon and lovely wood decor, the small rooftop pool with a great view, and the friendly staff. It also has a decent breakfast, with some good western options and many Asian food options. It's also really easy to get around from this hotel, even more so now that three-wheeled taxis are everywhere. It's a great value for the price, while still having distinctive Myanmar hospitality.

I have stayed in hotels all around Myanmar having lived and worked in the country for 4 years. The Link 78 in Mandalay is by far the best all round hotel I have stayed in. This is intriguing because it's far from the most expensive. It's what you would say is 'mid-range' in terms of price. However the quality of the rooms, the service, and especially the food, is simply the best in Myanmar I have experienced. It's worth visiting the restaurant on the top floor even if you are not staying int he hotel, the food is truly first class and not at all expensive. In the past 4 years I have stayed in about 15 different hotels in Mandalay. Over the past 6 months it has been the same hotel each time and I cannot see myself staying anywhere else. Well done to the Link 78 Mandalay - as a business traveller, you are the first hotel in Myanmar that has truly satisfied me and achieved international standards.

Absolutely loved this hotel. One of the best hotels we have stayed in Myanmar. Very distinctive decor matched by attractively uniformed staff. Very helpful staff and nice breakfast on the roof top dining area. Free cocktails from 6-7pm!! Good location and quiet. The only minor complaint is that the designers got carried away with the design of the bathrooms without paying attention to the practicalities. A typical Asian wet area bathroom with tiled floor. But there was nowhere to hang anything and the circular hand basin on a small bench had no room to put anything on, and the tap only just extended to the edge of the basin! Not a practical design. Otherwise great place and would definitely return when in Mandalay again.

Brilliant hotel in Mandalay with good English speaking staff. Staff go out of there way to help and assist you with all your needs and queries. Hotel is down a small alleyway but there are staff on the main road all day waiting for any drop offs/pick ups and they carry your bags. As mentioned before hotel has no escalator but bags are carried up and down for you. Hotel is very clean.....the only negative I could point out was bed sheets smelt abit musty. Hotel arranged a driver tour for the day for me and also my onward bus travel to Bagan with hotel pick up and drop off at destination for reasonable price. Breakfast was good.....what seems to be the standard in Myanmar...tea, coffee, fresh juices, eggs (cooked to your choice) hot food such as noddles etc and various bread options. the hotel also recommend various restaurant which are nearby.....I can recommended the local BBQ restaurant on the street just opposite - fabulous fresh food and not to worry about hygiene as it is all cooked there in front of you. I also tried the Thai restaurant (Thai Mhat? I think) that the hotel recommended.....best meal I had in all of Myanmar....reasonably priced, nice air con surroundings, good service and of course a fabulous meal. All in all I would recommend you to stay in during your time in Mandalay and it was also great value for money.

Location is right above the Mandalay train station. Front desk manager and staff were efficient, professional and spoke good English. Front desk provided us a good taxi service to Bagan. Hotel bed was five star. Breakfast buffet was excellent in both food selection and wait staff service a day before New Year. However, when we stayed again 3 days after New Year, wait staff at the restaurant were inefficient; Myanmar tea served was overly sweet and the noodles served were soggy and inconsistent in flavor. Overall, for its excellent front desk service and location, highly recommended!

Wonderful! Don't let the outside of this hotel fool you. While it doesn't look like much, the location, service, rooms and surroundings are lovely. Within walking or a short taxi distance to many major sites (except for U Bien Bridge). Nice bar (with 2 for 1 cocktail hour), nice rooms (request a mountain view room so you can enjoy the temple views). We ate dinner here 3 nights and never got bored. Breakfast buffet was certainly international with many selections. The hotel staff was well spoken and helpful. Our small group of 3 couldn't have asked for a better hotel in Mandalay.

a very brand new hotel which is very clean, big room, and great service. Location is ok. Though it's not in the middle of downtown but you can find some small restaurants and the mini mart on the opposite side of the hotel in the walking distance. And as Myanmar's transportation is not convenience that you have to travel around by taxi, staying here is good because it's not busy compares to those hotels in downtown. Also all the staffs are going beyond their duty, they provide us exceptional services. They helped us plan our trips in Mandalay and book the taxi to travel around and a bus to Bagan with a fair price. They also gave us lots of info about the places' admission fee, the boat fee, the taxi to near by cities, etc. Breakfast was ok. There are hot food which most of them are Myanmar dish. (if you expect omelette, scramble egg, or sunny side up, they don't have that style) Overall is great, will definitely stay here again

O found this place by accident and expected nothing. But when I entered my room I fell in love. This hotel is in a green and quiet area near Mandalay Hill and some other top sights. You can walk by feet around and explore another face of Mandalay. I enjoyed it so much.. The palace is only a 15min walk away. Nice neighbourhood. My favourite place to be in Mandalay. I regret to stay only for two nights. Super furnished room. Super clean. Not smelly. Great breakfast. The pool is super. Always clean. The staff is a bit more special than in other hotels because they all have a glow. I am in love with this Hotel and if you want a quiet place after busy sightseeing and noisy Mandalay, this is your place.

A very nice hotel in mandalay, all the staffs are very friendly and helpful, all with smiling face, the location is good need the city centre and royal palace, hotel also provide a free bike to let the tourist to explore the city.

Honestly, I didn't expect to stay in a modern & clean hotel in Mandalay. This hotel has exceeded all my expectations for a boutique hotel. The room size is not big but it is cosy & comfortable with modern designs. The toilet was very clean. The mini fridge has a see-through glass door which was cool with very affordable drinks. The room comes with 4 vacant international wall plugs which was very convenient. Overall, I would come here to stay again when I come back to Mandalay.

We did not have high expectations of Mandalay but in the end of 4 days, expectations well and truly surpassed and partly due to having a very good place to stay. One of the best places we stayed in even though price was less than other hotels in Myammar. Staff helped us with local transport and finding a motorbike to rent at a reasonable rate to visit Sagieng and Ubin Bridge and places outside Mandalay city. We used the free bikes provided by the hotel 2 days to get around the city. They told us prices to expect to be charged for distances travelled. Breakfast was good with a range of Asian and Western food and fruit. Better than most places we stayed in in Myanmar. Very close to Nepali restaurant called Thinns (no name outside) on 28th between 79th and 80th which had delicious briyanis till sold out and in the evenings has prathas and chapatis for a minuscule price. Lots of local people eating there and drinking tea after about 7pm till late. It would not be an ideal location if you wanted to eat at the more tourist-friendly restaurants on about 77th St unless you were willing to walk or ride bikes. On arrival, hotel provided a pickup service where the Air Asia bus arrived-which was great to avoid being hassled by the Air Asia agent on the bus who kept offering overpriced taxis run by his friends/relatives or when you get off the bus. Hotel booked a bus for us for our next destination which picked us up at the hotel and delivered us to our hotel in Bagan. Very satisfied with stay.

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.

We loved this hotel! The free breakfast was incredible and the staff were so incredibly sweet and attentive. The first night we stayed we got an enormous room that we loved - the second time we got a much smaller room, but it had more of a view. It was unbearably hot outside in Mandalay so we were so happy to have this oasis to retreat to - we would take a walk to the palace or out to the night market (which is pretty close and definitely worth the trip!) and then come back for some cool air. We loved the OJ and fruit upon arrival too. The best part of all was eating the delicious breakfast in the chilled restaurant with a full view onto the palace and its moat and surrounding park. Loved it!

We got this room for for less than 15usd. Room is very nice and they also serve buffet breakfast. We are truly satisfied with our stay. Hotel also helped us to book our bus ticket to Bagan. I almost forgot my mobile phone at the Lobby but they are all helpful. After our tour, we even cameback and they offered a cold towel and a welcome drink again. All staff are highly commendable and truly beats the five star Hotel for offering wonderful service. I highly recommend this Hotel in Mandalay.

We are currently living in Yangon, but are from the U.K. We visited Mandalay for a weekend trip. The hotel is very comfortable, with good sized rooms, comfy beds and spotlessly clean. The staff, as we have found with all people in Myanmar, were polite and friendly with ready smiles. The most refreshing thing, not only from the people in this hotel but in general, is that Myanmese people will go out of their way to help you in any way they can, without wanting something in return, even if you try to offer, it is politely refused. I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel, and will stay here again when we return to Mandalay.

SIG is centrally located; easily accessible to the old palace, mandalay hills, supermarket and just across the train station. They have made travelling for foreigners seamless with a hotel car for hire or assisting to book private taxis at reasonable rates - especially useful when you don't speak their language. We stayed 7 nights and i was impressed with the cleanliness of the hotel, the room, the spa and the restaurant. The staff are super friendly, helpful and efficient - we had to extend our stay and made 3 separate bookings through agoda and they promptly understood our situation and allows us to keep to the same room. food at the 9th floor restaurant is delicious with a wide selection. the rooftop sunset bar is a must once the sun goes down. it offers a panoramic view of Mandalay. Surprisingly, the noise and the dust are not deterrents to enjoying a lovely evening there. Highly recommended - the rooms are large and comfy. Just don't expect fast internet connection, as is mostly the case in Myanmar.

Had a great stay at this beautiful hotel. The staff were very friendly, attentive and professional. Great buffet breakfast with chefs cooking fresh omelettes etc. The pool is fantastic (not many hotels in town with a pool) and was our location of choice during the middle of the hot Summer days. Taxis just outside the hotel driveway ready to take you anywhere. Internet (wifi) available in the foyer, however either slow or not working. There is an internet cafe just round the corner with good wifi / landline connection and quite cheap. The trick in Mandalay is to use the internet from late morning through to about 5.00pm. Either side of that it is very slow due to it being the peak use period and the country not having a good network at this time. I would definitely recommend this hotel compared to many others in Mandalay.

We stayed 3 nights at the red canal and could not fault the staff or hotel, they were very attentive and helpful. Excellent service and great rooms, the food was great and all the staff happy. We had one of the best meals on our trip at red canal, they also organised a taxi to take us round the sights of Mandalay which was a big help and we loved Mandalay Hill view. This hotel is setting the standard for others in Mandalay and if back in Mandalay will return.

Yadanarpon is well located close to the old palace and a few minutes in a taxi from downtown Mandalay. Room was good, everything worked. Wifi was pretty good for Myanmar, best I had during my stay in the country. Staff were really good, went out of their way to help. My Burmese is pretty bad so a bit of patience and everything got done. Rooftop bar isn't really one, they rollout a few tables at sunset. In fact, I don't think there was a bar there at all. It's just a couple of minutes walk down the road to street stalls and restaurants anyway, no problem. Close to sunset a loud noise emanated from some contraption near reception which then started to give off clouds of toxic smelling smoke, I had to close the balcony doors. Apparently it was to kill mossies.....(sledgehammer..walnut etc) Good hotel. If you're traveling in Myanmar you'll soon get used to the different hotel standards and learn not to be too picky about the small things. I'd stay there again

Very, very pleased to have decided to stay at Amazing Hotel in Mandalay. Things I love about this hotel: 1) Excellent service from the staff - the reception is very knowledgeable about the area and is ready to provide information. Very helpful with arranging our transportation and were honest about the rates we should be paying. We were lucky to be paired with an awesome driver (Bon Than?). He was gem! 2) The room is huge! Very surprised how huge (and high-ceilinged) our room was considering we only booked a standard twin room. It comes with in-house tea/coffee making facility, and they give you a plate of fruits to welcome you. 3) The bathroom is quite modern, and is equipped with good quality toiletries and plush towels. It's also very spacious. 4) The bed was amazing! Certainly on par with hotels abroad. 5) Morning pack meals - as we were leaving very early to board our ferry the next day, we informed that hotel that we miss the chance to enjoy their breakfast so they packed a meal for us (2 eggs, 1 banana and a croissant). Thing we didn't like / or care too much: 1) The Spa - quite well done and proper but the quality of massage is not there yet. While it was inexpensive, it wasn't that enjoyable and I got bored halfway. Our only regret is that we only stayed 1 night in Mandalay. I will definitely come back and stay here again. Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed my time there, its very rare I rate a place 100% but the royal yadanarbon deserves it. Firstly, its rated as a 2 star.. and it feels better than that. The room was fully equipped with a great bed, fridge, quiet a/c and a hot shower. It was cleaned every day and the staff were wonderful and really helpful without exception. The breakfast was buffet and whilst the food was mainly local, (which I love) I also asked, and got fried eggs as extra.. just a caviet, I mainly travel with a back pack so I am use to (at times) some average and often grimy places. The royal yadanarbon by contrast was exceptionally clean and a joy to stay in and by far the best place in my stay in myanmar. Mandalay is noisy, dusty and a beautiful but sometimes a challanging city for people who my want to travel but not like getting too far out of their comfort zone.. this small hotel is an oasis of calm..

Most of the hotels in Myanmar are quite expensive when compared with neighboring countries, and most of the time visitors would feel that they deserve more from the amount they paid. Hotel Sahara is an exception! Despite their budget room rates, they offer great service and most importantly the rooms are quite spacious with flat screen tv, cabinet, small fridge, and nice and clean bathroom. It is located at the corner of a shopping district and sits right in front of Mandalay moat which is a famous local attraction. If you are flying with AirAsia, the free shuttle service is just on the next street, less than 3-minute walk from the hotel. The breakfast is awesome, the staff are awesome. In the evening, a local Burmese noodle shop opens right in front of the hotel, and they have really delicious food at affordable prices. Surely it was my best hotel experience in Myanmar.

The location is great, and it is a well known hotel. The gym was amazing, best in ANY hotel I've stayed in Asia (including ones costing 3-4x the price). The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was mostly geared towards Asians, but did have western food, and was a larger buffet. The room was clean, and actually very large. If I return to Mandalay I will stay here again!

Renovation is a great word when it comes to hotels because you get flawless new rooms for laughable prices. Unity is perfectly located in The Little India district, with the best Pakistani restaurant right across the street. The rooms are new, the bathroom is huge, the staff is helpful and smiling and the price is impossibly good. We stayed at a few hotels in Mandalay and Unity was by far the best value. Highly recommend.

This is one of the few river-side hotels in Mandalay, but as a result, is about 3k from the centre of town. There aren't many shops ot restaurants nearby. The rooms are spacious, clean, well equipped with good wi-fi. We had a rear-facing room, which are much cooler and quieter than the front, river-view rooms that overlook a busy road with hot afternoon sun. The breakfast buffet is vast. The staff are superb - well-trained, speak English and couldn't do enough for you. The top feature of this hotel is the roof-top bar and restaurant, with sweeping views over the river. The bar serves a complimentary, free-flow cocktail of the day to hotel guests daily, for the duration of the spectacular sunset over the river.. Recommended.

Best value for the money. Super friendly and helpful staff: reception, bell boys, house keeping to waitstaff at the restaurant. Hotel is clean. Beds and pillows are OK. AC is a bit noisy. Bathroom layout shower and toilet is a bit weird for the room I stayed. Breakfast is quite OK for the 3 star hotel. They have fresh fruits and one local dish every morning, plus 4 or 5 dishes, breads and egg station. Had eaten at the restaurant a few times and it was good. Staff is very accommodating and kictchen has no problem with customized requests for any special diet needs. You will need a taxi to get to majority of attractions. Hotel can arrange all that for you or you can hook up with your own driver. We have also used Grab a few times. Staff will assist you with anything you need. Money changers, mall, convenient store, late night local cafes, are all in walking distance. In summary, I don't think you will find a better hotel in Mandalay at this price range. Highly recommended for budget travelers..

The staff were very nice, friendly and service minded. The breakfast was good. Location is very convenient with a lot of convenient stores & restaurants nearby. It’s also convenient to go to many interesting places eg. Mandalay palace. They also gave us late checkout for small kid nap time. We recommend this hotel in Mandalay and will stay here again next time.

The hotel is well situated in the center of Mandalay, the room is clean, spacious, I contacted the reception for hot water in the shower, the staff came and work the hot water which took over 5 minutes to get the water hot. Still the water remained tepid during my stay.

This place was much nicer than our other hotel in Mandalay. Everything worked, bathroom was nice with no smell, breakfast was on the rooftop with a nice view of Mandalay. We had a room on the 8th floor so there was less street noise to deal with. Very relaxing. Would stay again here!

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.
