Kaung Myint Hotel

Staff were very helpful - especially when my train was delayed and I did not check in until midnight. When I said I was travelling to Bagan by riverboat they offered - without asking - to sort my ticket ( and the return ) for me. When I asked about laundry services they said their machine was broken but they arranged for my laundry to be done locally.

Was disappointed with the options for evening entertainment as there was literally none. No fault of the hotel but I would look for a different location in Mandalay if I came again for this reason. Consolation was the excellent restaurant Shan Ma Ma a few streets away which my Tuk Tuk driver recommended. I ate there most nights.

Lovely, super friendly staff. Rooms are decent value for money.

Rooms were a bit sterile. Breakfast quality not good (industrial products). But the staff was so lovely, it more than made up for it.
