Home Away from Home”

My wife and I originally booked Royal Golden View Hotel for three nights, but liked our stay so much, we stayed for two more weeks! It is such a peaceful property, right on the river, and our time there was very special. It was wonderful waking up each morning and seeing the many pagodas dotting the landscape! The staff became like our family, teaching us Burmese and answering all our questions, we will miss them very much. The room with the balcony was great, because we could dry our clothes, and the bathroom shower was very pleasant. Aside from the very friendly staff, the breakfast was amazing everyday, and we often ate several meals at the hotel each day. They were very helpful in making us vegetarian options as well. I really loved the dining area, since it has many windows looking onto the river, and my wife and I would do our work there, it was very peaceful and productive. The hotel owner was also very kind to give me a longyi, making me feel even more at home. Thank you to Royal Golden View, we will be back next year!

Nice hotel in Yangon”

The Royal golden view hotel is not remarkable when you drive up to the front. However, when you enter the hotel, the staff greets you warmly and are always respectful. The room was spacious. The best part is the front view of the hotel. The grounds are manicured with flowers, bushes and trees, and there is an overlook to the lake . The bar is a cool place for drinks. At night, you can have drinks on the balcony with a beautiful view of the lake. . The breakfast buffet was ok.

Not a great stay!”

My boyfriend and I missed our flight out of Yangon and had to find a hotel which was relatively nearby for one night. We chose Royal Golden View because it was relatively close (at least on the map) and seemed quite nice based on pictures. When we arrived, we were given the last room available which was on the first floor right next to the main walkway. As a result, it was pretty noisy (we could hear everything outside, including people talking late at night and early in the morning and cars, not to mention water pipes and whirring air conditioning). Noise aside, I had trouble sleeping even though my boyfriend didn't. At one point, I thought it was bed bugs, but seemed like it was just something in the blanket or bedding that made me itch. I ended up sleeping without covers, and used my scarf and jacket to warm me up. Finally, the location is really quite far from everywhere. The airport taxi was 9000 Kyat to this supposedly closer location, instead of 6000 Kyat to Inya Lake Hotel (which is much farther if you look at the map). All in all, I don't think I would stay at this hotel again. The rest of the occupants are group tours who probably didn't have a choice of where to stay. I have to say, the staff is helpful though only one of them could speak English!

Royal Garden View Hotel- restful stay by the river”

This hotel is only a short distance from the airport but allow at least 45 minutes to get there due to the congested roads. Although the hotel is located in a noisy and busy area the site and the rooms are very peaceful. As the room we were offered did not fulfill our booking requirements we were up graded to a very good standard which did. The staff were extremely helpful. The upper floors were accessed by lift or stairs. The dining room was located in a stand alone building separate from the one our room was in. We found our room to be very comfortable for a family group of 3 adults.

Excellent”

Friendly helpful staff. Room on street side of hotel was a bit noisy but bearable. Rooms on creek side of main building are more expensive I think but would have been quieter. Only downside was that wifi failed on me for 24 hours. Hotel provided a temp fix, but that failed too after 12 hours.

Great hotel close to airport”

Robert and his staff were extremely helpful during our stay and also very pleasant to deal with.If you need a hotel close to the airport its a good choice with a nice riverside setting. The restaurant overlooks the river and it is an enjoyable place to eat breakfast/dinner.

Nice accommodations ”

We stayed here for two weeks while visiting friends. The staff were very friendly and the room (Deluxe Bungalow) was clean and comfortable. The restaurant had a pleasant view of the creek while dining. This location is nice but if you must travel down town it is 30 to 60 minutes away one way depending on traffic yet only 20 from the airport.

Big hotel and near to airport”

Stayed for 1 night for flight back home. Room is clean and bathroom is fixed with modern features. Though water from the shower tend to overflow. Staff at the hotel are friendly. Food at the hotel's only restaurant is good by local standards. Price is of course more expensive. There is no local restaurants near this hotel. ATM is also available here.

As Expected for the price point”

Restaurant is mostly deserted in off season, but they will make you dinner or deliver via room service. The food was good. Comfortable simple room. Huge tidal flow in the creek behind is fun to watch from the restaurant or your balcony.

Beautiful hotel”

It good hotel for family trip and i like the garden

A good place to rest , relax and do nothing”

Food was moderate, all OK, except the air con compressor was noisy and the mini bar fridge was noisey too. I turned off the fridge but was not able do the same for air-conditioner. Even the passing traffic was bearable not the vibration/noise from compressors.

Not worth the money”

The problem of Yangon is that there are not much choice of hotel, you either pay very expensive for an international branded hotel of unfair price for a, i catagorise this hotel is a guess house. Noisey, nothing to watch on TV, very bad internet connection, unprofessional staff (one room cleaner practically open my room door when i am changing without knocking the door), braekfast was practically cold and not heated. Well...i admit that some of the staff did try to help and give you a warm smile.

Helpful staff but not the room service”

Generally good, but the room services not up to standard. They do not replenish the necessity, such as shower cap, soap etc.

No Wifi but very friendly & accommodating staff”

PROS: Very helpful staff. They went to a nearby pharmacy and bought some medication for my bad cough. At tea time, one of them went out to buy some local desserts. Hotel is close to the airport. CONS: No wifi in bedrooms.

Acceptable”

The no 1 best thing about this motel is it’s staff. Could not fault them. Very friendly. The accomodation is not flash or new but it is acceptable. Not in a tourist area. We were there to visit orphanages. Breakfast simple, omelette’s made fresh when you enter which I had every day.

Good value”

Can easily get around with Grab taxi

Remote location from City but with clean room”

a little bit under my expectation

Nice hotel but poor neighbourhood”

Cool”

Très bon niveau services, mais pas d'eau chaude dans les chambres...

Ideal wenn man es eilig zum Flughafen hat. ”

Kurze Entfernung zum Flughafen mit geringer Staugefahr. Allerdings musste ich beide Transfers bezahlen. Obwohl meine Anfrage ob ein Transfer inklusive wäre dreimal mit yes beantwortet wurde, wartete niemand bei der Ankunft und bei der Abreise rief die Rezeption nur das Taxi, bezahlte es aber nicht.
