Hotel 3-Star di Mandalay, Myanmar

LOCATION Excellent location. In the immediate vicinity of the market, and a few blocks' walk from 82nd/84th and 27th Streets, where you'll find street food for dinner. The OK Express minibus company (for Bagan, among other destinations) is a 5-minute walk away. Palace and pagodas are easily accessible by bicycle. SERVICE Excellent welcome, despite arriving at dawn. Excellent customer service. They provide a lot of advice. Excellent work by the housekeeping teams in the rooms and the restaurant. Excellent attention from the night watchmen. The sign at the entrance sums it all up: ”It's not a hotel, it's your home.” ENVIRONMENT Quiet and safe neighborhood. A very good quality hotel, well laid out, and very well maintained. Quality furnishings. Spotlessly clean. ROOM Standard double room: Sufficient space for one person, perhaps a little small for two. Bright. Well laid out. Mirror in the bedroom. Very good quality bedding. Clean, good quality linens. Spacious and clean bathroom. Hot water with good pressure. Good air conditioning. Very good Wi-Fi. Well-placed electrical outlets. The only thing missing was a dedicated space for luggage. BREAKFAST Depending on the number of guests, breakfast is served à la carte or buffet-style. À la carte: one dish of your choice, one drink of your choice (unlimited tea and coffee), one piece of fruit. For this option, given the abundance of fruit available in Myanmar, I would suggest offering an unlimited fruit salad. Buffet: Adequately stocked. Hot dishes, fruit, bread, and drinks. The restaurant is on the rooftop on the 4th floor. Airy and bright, it offers a beautiful view of the city. AMENITIES/SERVICES OFFERED *The room had a hairdryer, an electric kettle, and a small minibar refrigerator. *Bottled water, tea, and coffee were provided. Water dispensers were also available at reception. *Luggage was stored before and after check-in. *Free use of bicycles was available. This was a very popular option that made it easy to get around and explore the surrounding area. *The hotel has a generator, ensuring a continuous power supply. *Bus ticket booking service. A quick note regarding booking bus tickets to Bagan: 2 options: - JJ Express bus. The ticket costs 55,000 MMK if purchased directly from the company, versus 66,000 MMK through the hotel, which is 10% more expensive. - OK Express minibus. The ticket costs 45,000 MMK through the hotel. All locals paid 30,000 MMK directly in the minibus. Price not verified for foreigners. In conclusion, Good value for money. Highly recommended. Already saved to my favorites. This is clearly the kind of hotel every traveler would love to find. Price offered live for a standard double room with breakfast [May 2026] = 85,000 MMK.

Overall, it's fairly clean and tidy. Before check-in, the hotel will inform you that smoking is prohibited in the rooms. If you smoke after checking in and the hotel finds out, they will charge you tens of thousands of Myanmar Kyats for various reasons, and any damaged items will be charged at the hotel's price. Also, drinks in the hotel room are chargeable, and the price is three times that of convenience stores outside (it seems about 90% of hotels here have opaque pricing). If you haven't inquired before checking into a hotel here, it's best to ask to avoid unnecessary arguments and wasted time during check-out.

The breakfast shop was attentive and delicious I stayed for a week and I had a good time without any inconvenience. I recommend it

Excellent stay here & extended one extra day in Bagan. Staffs are super friendly & helpful, it’s inside the bagan pagodas & backyard is Irrawaddy river, quiet & pewceful. Very thankful that they let me check in earlier at 7.30am & upgraded my room to suite. I had the most wonderful time staying here in Bagan! Highly recommended!!!

I stayed at Holidays Pier Hotel for 2 days during my business trip on November 2025 . The room was beautifully and clean. The location was perfect with city view. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable stay. However, the air conditioning in our room was a bit noisy. Overall, it was a delightful experience.

I didn't expect the Samsung hotel rooms to be equipped with bathtubs, and the pool and gym environment was also very good. The room is very spacious and the service is very detailed. The hotel is said to have opened last year. The facilities are newer than other hotels in Mandalay. It feels that it has reached the 4-star standard and will choose next time.

They prepared ebike very quickly to explore around Bagan. Thanx to ebike, coukd visit all around Bagan witg cheap price.

Everything was good, except for a slight issue with the front desk's POS machine. My first payment didn't go through properly, so I had to pay a second time. They only refunded the first payment after I checked out. It seems the hotel staff isn't very familiar with these procedures.

Very good Hotel. NIce pool and in good location, inside the area temples.

Very convenient and safe. You can directly book various activities at the front desk. The hot water supply is quite stable (though the maximum temperature isn't super high). There's someone sleeping by the entrance at night, which makes you feel pretty secure.
