This hotel is no joke. As two young backpackers, we felt very out of place when we walked into the lobby (in a good way, it was very grand and beautiful)! The staff are EXTREMELY friendly and helpful. The hotel is huge; it even hosts conferences. Our room was fantastic, great shower, beautiful views. The pool is one of the highlights of this hotel. It was the perfect temperature, large, with lots of chairs to read and sunbathe on. We spend alot of time relaxing here! The breakfast buffet is the other highlight. It's a full on restaurant, with everything you could ever want for breakfast. The location is very nice because it's walking distance to the Shwedagon Pagoda as well as downtown (trust me, you don't want to take cabs in Yangon, the traffic is horrific). A great way to end our three week trip!
