"A very beautiful hotel, which gives preference to everything natural in the interior and design. Here, even the boards with a request to clean the room or not to disturb are made of wood. We were given a huge room in a separate house. Sometimes there were power outages, but they were short-lived. WiFi worked well. It seemed to me that we were the only guests of the hotel on the first day, then other guests arrived. The hotel has a large swimming pool with a view of the Bagan pagodas. There are sun loungers near the pool, and in the evenings, tables are set up for dinner. The hotel has a spa, where an hour of massage costs $ 5. There is a gym, but due to the lack of people wanting to, the air conditioning was turned off, and I did not wait for the room to cool down.
Breakfast at the hotel is a la carte. You can order all the items. We liked the noodles with vegetables and omelettes. Every day we dined at the hotel restaurant. Of the cocktails, we liked the Mai Tai. Of the food, pasta with chicken. Some dishes were spicy for us, but this is typical for Asian dishes. We didn't like the desserts. The service at the hotel was top notch. All the staff try very hard. You can walk from the hotel to the 12-story tower, which offers views of the whole Bagan. The hotel can call you a tuk-tuk for a trip to the temples. We stayed here for 3 nights. It was enough to ride around the temples for half a day. I don't recommend riding all day because of the heat.
We forgot the cable at the hotel, we found it on Inle Lake in another hotel in the chain. We called the reception, made arrangements, and the cable was brought to us for free the next day. It was very nice, considering that it's a 7-hour drive by car.
I recommend the hotel if you come to see Bagan."
