Excellent, friendly hotel: fantastic stay”
The Owner and Staff at Hotel Mega Stars couldn't do more to welcome and help their guests. They provide welcome drinks not just on their guests' first arrival but on every return to the hotel at the end of each day. The owner Htun is always personally available to guests to make them feel at home, and encourages a spirit of generosity in his staff. Htun is personally excellent with kids: our two, a boy of 7 and girl of 10, absolutely loved him. He is also part of a small team of players of the national ball game Chinlone / Caneball who not only play a nightly game in the hotel garden - which is absolutely riveting to watch - but also invite guests and their children to have a go, and it's not easy to play!! The hotel restaurant food is beautiful: a nice mix of Asian veg and meat dishes, noodles and some sensational "finger fish" and fries: battered fish fingers and English-style chips, which were great for our fussy western children! The breakfast is good: cereals, lovely brown bread (to counter the prevalence everywhere in Asia of slightly sickly sweet white bread), eggs and some Asian breakfast options such as rice, veg and noodles. Most amazing of all about the restaurant is the view of misty Mandalay Hill which is to die for. The swimming pool is pleasant although we didn't use it much as the evening temperatures in December when we stayed were relatively low and the water was a little cold: it would be great in the hot season months from April to October. Probably the jewel in the experience of staying at Hotel Mega Stars is the presence of "Jewel", the resident monkey, who is a sweetheart. At first we came with our Western preconceptions of "is this animal safe?" and "is it right for there to be a wild animal kept in a cage in the garden?" In fact, Jewel is a rescue monkey whose mother was killed by hunters - she is free to roam, and as and when she wants to, she enters and leaves her large garden habitat which is surrounded by netting and shared with some

Peaceful Oasis”
We stayed three nights at the Mega Star. The staff bent over backward to ensure all our needs were met. The food was delicious and we frequently received gifts like green tomato salad, fresh fruit and green tea along with what we ordered. To get around town we used the free bikes or taxi and always came back to be greeted with a cold refreshing welcome drink. We ate most meals in the garden area and enjoyed the fish, rabbits and a baby baboon who had been rescued by the friendly owner Tom after the mother had been killed by hunters. It was a great stay and we will be back. We will also recommend Mega Star to our friends. Many thanks to the Mega Star staff for making our stay in Mandalay wonderful!

Stay here!”
Hotel Mega Stars was hands down the best value hotel that we stayed at during our trip to Myanmar. The location is slightly out of town and might be perceived as inconvenient to some, but we found it a perfect respite from the business and noisiness of inner Mandalay. The hotel has a lovely garden out the back housing rabbits and birds, which is the perfect place to have lunch or dinner in the evening. The hotel food was some of the best that we had in Myanmar. Rooms are on the smaller side but comfortable and well equipped. Many of the staff don't speak much English, but there is always someone at the front desk who speaks English well and will doing anything possible to help. The English-speaking owner is also often on hand and has great tips on where to go/what to see. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Hotel Mega Stars to anyone visiting Mandalay.

Mega Service!”
I usually never review hotels, but this hotel was so charming that I had to make an exception. Their staff were so ridiculously eager to please that it was sometimes a little comical. From filling up the air in our bicycles to arranging other kinds of ground transportation for us to the little charming touches like decorating our bed with rose petals, giving us a free room upgrade, giving us free food at dinner, and a little send-off gift when we left. Clearly, they are highly motivated to get good online reviews, and, well, it worked. Beyond the service, free bicycle rentals is a brilliant idea to give guests independence around Mandalay, and perfectly compensated for being a little off the beaten track (which, by the way, meant they were quieter than a downtown hotel). Finally, the hotel grounds itself were beautiful: a wonderful garden, lots of plants all over, an even rabbits and a bunch of different kinds of birds as pets. I would definitely stay here again.

Myanmar-Mandalay-Mega Star”
Very pleasant stay from 25-28 October 2015. We had arranged for the hotel to pick us up at the airport. The driver and hotel representative were there on arrival, in a large van with a/c and played up-beat music all the way. The airport is about an hour drive out of town. It cost us US$10. We were greeted with a welcome juice and shown to our room. The room was spacious, clean and well equiped. We ended up changing to the room with the better view to Mandalay Hill. The staff were friendly and helpful and courteous at all times. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Once the staff learned that we really liked their green tomato salad, it was presented to us for free several times during our three night stay! I especially enjoyed sitting on the community verandah outside our room watching the sun come up. We also received little gifts on the evening and on the morning when we travelled on. We continued on to Bagan by Ferry on the 28 October and thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

excellent friendly small hotel ”
The staff were very helpful and the owner on hand and friendly with his personality showing throughout the hotel. The location was quiet and gave us a local view of Mandalay without being far from the main tourist sites. The room room was comfortable and well designed. The breakfast was tasty with great views over Mandalay Hill. The dinner service was a bit quiet.

Very Good Hotel!”
I highly recommend this hotel! This is the best one I had from my 1 month travel in 5 countries. I am a solo traveler and I rented a private room usually good for 2, So I got myself a big bed! The bathroom was so nice and clean. Staff are very kind, even if they spoke a little english they tried their best to give the best service. There is a swimming pool and a free bike! Free breakfast is a plus. They also allowed me to check in early coz I arrived around 5 in the morning. Though the loacation is far, they can still manage a good tour for you so you won't bother thinking where and how to go to places. I love this place! :) If I'll be back to Mandalay, I will totally book here again.

Highly recommanded”
It was very very pleasant experience. I want to tell two stories. We three took the evening bus to Mandalay and were able to check in very early. We are thankful. My friend got sick after eating something unclean and the staff were very caring and went out to buy medicine for her and communisate with the next hotel about our delay of arrival. They are also helpful in tourist information and booking taxi for us. The hotel is super beautiful. Wanting to go there again!

Perfect place to relax after long flight in a busy city. An oasis and exceptional staff. ”
Our welcome was original. Monkey Jewel is the perfect hostess and we were treated like the duke and duchess of Edinburgh. We slept soundly in our bungalow, which I recommend. The restaurant serves freshly cooked delicious meals and with a smile. Bear in mind fresh food takes time, this is not a fast food place and worth the wait. This was the best place to start our myanmar holiday. What a welcome! Please do not expect 5 star facilities. If so, you do not belong in Myanmar. Take the genuine experience as it comes and go with the flow. Internet is on and off in the room but if you really can't do without, go to the reception area and knock yourself out, but remember, you are on holiday in Myanmar so chill and detox. We will surely return here and recommend Mega stars to our friends. Thank you staff and Jewel, we miss you most.

Awesome stay ”
Stay was great, the staff super friendly. Located close to Mandalay hill we enjoyed our time riding our bicycles around town and exploring the area. Breakfast was the best we got during our stay in myanmar.

Nice hotel with original layout”
Unlike most of the hotels that are just the typical cookie cutter style concrete block, this hotel has bungalows over a clean filtered pond and a hotel. In the garden where rabbits are housed and there two puppies as well. Seems like the owner has a soft side for animals and seemed to properly take care of them as well. Really nice to see. The hotel staff was great. The hotel wasn't fully booked and I asked if they would consider upgrading us they complied. That is customer service you never find in Myanmar. It was really refreshing (FYI, I have lived in Myanmar for nearly 2 years, so I have seen many hotels). I really enjoyed this place and the location worked for me because it was near the main hill. However, it is away from the city center so keep that in mind if that is a big factor. Didn't bother me since the city is small.

Wonderful place to stay”
Well, I can only praise this place for their warm and genuine welcome. The staff there are so kind. They make you feel at ease as soon as you come in. We visited a week ago. My children keep saying that they are missing the place. the owner always has time for you and likes to have a good chat. They are always eager to please you. Even though it is not downtown it is not a problem as you can borrow their bicycles. It is nice to cycle to town and it is not far from their place. The garden is very nice. tThe children loved the rabbits (about 20 of them). it is an excellent place for families as they also have an indoor swimming pool. i can only recommend this place. We will definitely go back to that hotel. We wish to thank everybody from that hotel for being so nice to us.

Good Hotel and fantastic staff”
The whole city is very chaotic and noisy.L'hotel is in a more secluded area of the city. Arriving at the hotel the area looks not beautiful, but the hotel looks like an oasis and is close enough to major attractions. In addition, the hotel offers free bikes with which it is easy to reach attractions. The pool is small but it is there if you want !!! The staff is very, very friendly. The juices offered are often fantastically fresh. The rooms are clean.

well I have sad news to fellow guests at Mega Stars Hotel... Jewel is no more, now in monkey heaven.”
Now they have 7 puppies to keep you entertained. Oh the fun and games. This has to be the best budget hotel I have stayed at in all my years of traveling in Asia. Staff are first class. They feed you until you burst. Nothing is too big a problem. Free bikes at your convenience. A great time had. Highly recommended. Please give it ago. Pool so refreshing after hot dusty day on the pushbike. 10/10.

I will not stay here again. ”
This hotel is at the very far north end of Mandakay. Not even in the city actually . A 30 min walk to even the North side of the Royal Palace. The wifi is terrible. Not even working in the lobby. Nothing in the room. Other hotels in Mandalay have very good wifi. The staff tried to use a bad rationalization of the same net issue everywhere. Not true. Poor location(expensive transport to town) and terrible wifi. Not recommended!

Absolutely wonderful place for a family with kids!”
If you have access to a vehicle and want a quiet peaceful place with a really kind helpful owner this is a great place. It's far from things so if you dont have a car or struggle with getting taxis (though I'm sure they could probably call for you,) it might be hard. Wifi is good, hot water isn't very hot but the animals and breakfast are amazing. The bungalows are above fish pools and the staff let my kids feed the fish. If you are used to Myanmar and the way things are here and want to experience peace and nice familt tine this is the place. (or if you just want a break from visiting tourist hotspots.) :)
