客の層に関する情報提供

年末年始の観光で滞在しました。 施設は少し古いですが、その他は通常のサービスを受けられました。 悪い話も一つ。 必ずしもホテルの責任ではないのかもしれませんが、年末のカウントダウンで飲みすぎたと思われる近くの部屋のグループが深夜廊下で暴れていて不愉快でした。 うるさいだけでなく当方の部屋のブザーを深夜に何度も鳴らされるなど、危険を感じる局面もありました。 宿泊客の層を理解するうえでは有益かと思いますので、情報提供いたします。

Seen better days.

Friendly and polite service let down by a very old, tired and dated building. Convenient location for grabbing a taxi around the city and there are some good restaurants nearby (Marie Min for yummy vegtarian food and Rainforest for Thai and for doing laundry!). I wouldn’t return until the rooms are upgraded and all bathrooms are equipped with separate showers - having a shower over the toilet in an old wet style bathroom is not pleasant and does not match the photos. Breakfast is bland.

Great stay!

Good location. Friendly staff- very approachable. No much variety for breakfast but the soup and sticky rice are the best!! It was quite noisy for the room (405) by the main road. We didn't sleep well because of this. When we changed to the other side (402), it was much quieter. No lift is available. So need to climb up.

Tiny, shabby rooms

Cons: Maybe because the hotel is quite old, the rooms look very shabby and worn inside. The room I had was also extremely tiny with merely a size of a king bed but no any other furniture. A lot of mosquitoes and spider nets in the room. Electricity got cut out frequently. The door is not sound proof. Pros: Good location. Very good breakfast. Helpful staff.

Quaint but comfortable

Older building needing some work but quaint and comfortable. Well located. And the staff deserve an extra half star. Other reviewers berated the breakfast but it was OK, and how much can you expect on this budget?

Good. Would choose better location next time.

Nice facility and staff. The rooms feel old, could use some general sprucing up. Location was OK but not great. Difficult to walk anywhere, and all the good places to see were a taxi or motorized rickshaw drive away.

Great value

Our stay at Hotel Emperor in Mandalay was very nice. Room was as seen on the photos although the view was just wall of the next building. Breakfast was quite nice - including eggs, noodles, sausages, fruit and toast. Hotel staff helped us with arranging transportation to Bagan. Mandalay is not super exciting city so there is not much around the hotel, but we managed to find good restaurants and beauty salon. Overall, great value for money (we also stayed in another hotel in a similar price range in Mandalay and Emperor was by far better).

Friendly and Basic

Small, friendly hotel. Staff was extremely helpful. Room was basic but comfortable. Good wifi. No bathtub, shower sprays directly on bathroom floor (which isn't unusual for smaller hotels in Asia). Many restaurants nearby but you still have to take a taxi to most of the main sights since it's about a 45-minute to an hour walk to the northeast corner of the palace walls.

Really loved staying here. Great staff, so helpful and attentive. Close to two very good restaurants. Central location. Hotel was very helpful in booking us transportation for custom tours, boat tickets, etc. Good breakfast. Only reason gave slightly lower review for property quality is there was a hole in our bathroom floor and floor gets really wet during a shower.

バガンのホテル

このホテル近辺は一応バガン中心街のようですが、バガン中心街そのものが田舎町ですので舗装も完ぺきではなく土埃が舞ってました。ホテル設備はバスタブもありまあまあですが、洗濯物の干場がなく室内で乾燥しました。朝食は屋上でバイキング方式ですが西洋の真似事のようでした。ホテル従業員も一緒に食事していたようだ。
