A very nice hotel with excellent staff and a very good breakfast as part of the room cost. I stayed for two nights and will definitely book this hotel again when I return to Mandalay.

Nice Hotel
Nice hotel for the money, carpets in hallways need replacing, hotel staff very friendly and helpful but hotel not near anything like restaurants, food in hotel hit and miss, Asian food good and they should just stick to that, why have club sandwich on menu when all you get is a cheese sandwich(what happened to the chicken, ham, bacon, egg?) even the ham and cheese sandwich only had Cheese, no ham? 3 attempts at making pizza, just take it off the menu, had family room which was nice and big and had big bath.

Horrible noisey location, restaurant not open
This hotel is on a street with constant a roar of traffic. The building has no soundproofing. We asked for a quieter room and were told there was nothing else. Reception told us the restaurant was open until 10pm. When we went at 7:00 they were packing up and told us it was closed. There is not much close by. There are many better hotels in the city in the same price range.

highly recommended
Staff could not be more friendly and helpful. Asia food in the restaurant is excellent (my wife is a food specialist) but western food like Pizza is not their forte but adequate. The only let down was the air-condition unit which broke down during our stay.

Average stay but good for a night
Overall the hotel was average - the service was however good. The only problem was the room we stayed in must have been close to a generator or water pump so was making loud humming noises every 15 minutes. Would advice staying towards the front of the building. Although some of those rooms do not have any natural light as windows are blocked by the building next to the hotel. Unfortunately the hotel is not near any good restaurants either.

Great hotel, could be better location
Good hotel, located in a quiet, local area, some restaurants around. We got a good deal on Expedia so the room was about £9 a night, which was definitely worth it. The staff are lovely, breakfast is really good, hot water is on and off and there were a fair few power cuts but what can you do about that! Reccomend this hotel.

Not a good location
Staff were friendly but are not very knowledgeable about what services tourists need. Tried to find a place to purchase air tickets and money changers but they didn't have any idea. Language can be a barrier. No food areas around. Very dusty and noisy street. Typical breakfast where items that have been cooked are not kept warm so consequently are cold. Egg station does provide fresh cooked eggs. Westerners like their food to be hot. We did have to leave early for home due to illness. Hotel was clean and AC worked fine. If you if to stay in Mandalay, I would suggest a hotel in a better location but this hotel is very cheap to stay at.

Regret on Encore
I extended my stay a week before and rebooked for 2 nights after a week but with big differences found both in room facilities, cleanness, etc and the staffs of reception are not enthusiastic but unwilling to help even the basic info on the wifi password hasn't told until asked. the breakfast becomes worse and out of supply. I won't pick this hotel in the future again unless I want to check my luck.

Lovely budget hotel in Mandalay
Great hotel with friendly and helpful staff! Our room was large, comfortable and clean. The hotel is a bit dated, but well maintained. The included breakfast was delicious (egg station, plus fried rice, noodles, greens, salads, fruit, banana cake, toast, etc). Would definitely stay here again.

Good with Better performance on coming
The hotel and its service deserved to pay more than the price I gave. staff are helpful and willing to help. It takes time to be trained to serve on efficiency and the supplied breakfast has room to improve on quality and quantity. The drain in the washroom is very bad, every time there is a flood on the floor and won't dried up in hours.

Great comfort
Mandalay, as a town is busy, chaotic, noisy, and I felt, without charm. The royal palace-right at the centre of things, is a straight road down from the hotel. It is a lovely sight, but now, an army garrison. I was informed by my taxi driver that visits cost 10,000 kyats per entry, for foreigners. There are many attractions around: interesting - even lovely, pagodas, monastaries and stupas, if that is your interest, and the famous U Bein bridge. I had stayed 2 days in this town, and then headed to Bagan in a boat, down the Irrawaddy, which was a fabulous experience in itself.

Excellent price:value
The hotel is conveniently located, and it was easy to get around with either motor cycle taxis or city taxis, even trishaws. My room was huge and the value for money is quite beyond belief, given that, generally, hotel rates for Myanmar are on the high side. The staff are all extremely helpful, and I felt very pampered, and cared for. Cannot recommend this hotel enough.

Friendly Staff in Outdated Hotel
Super friendly staff. The hotel is run by 20 year olds trying their best to make sure guests have a great stay. Unfortunately, the property is a bit of a disaster. Everything is run down, strange music plays in the hallways all day and night (!!!), breakfast is average at best, wifi is horrific. The location is a 30minute walk from the palace. If it weren't for the wonderful staff I would have run for the hills.

Great Staff, Hotel Needs Work!
The staff at Hotel Iceland was super friendly. The property was clean, BUT super run down. The rooms were clean and spacious, but smelled like cigarettes badly. There was rarely hot water or water pressure in the shower and the bathroom smelled like mold. We barely slept, as a family was building their home connected to our room. Literally! At 6am one morning I opened the curtains and was staring face to face with a family building their home. Super awkward! Breakfast was ok. The wifi never worked. It's a shame because the staff really is wonderful amd try to do everything to make the guests happy, but the property seriously needs work.

町外れのホテル
場所は街中ではあるが、ほとんど端に近い。ただ、マンダレーは観光地が近いので問題では無いだろう。また、空港やバガンからシェアバスでマンダレーに入るとホテルの前まで連れて行ってくれるので、ホテルを自分で探し回ることも無い。逆にホテルから空港へはタクシー利用になる。 ホテルサービスは、荷物は持ってくれないし、朝食は遅れて行くと食べるものが無くなる(言えば出てくるのかもしれないが)くらいで期待は出来ない。 部屋は悪くなく、値段を考えると、寝ることをメインに考える人には良いホテルだと思う。

シャワーの出が悪い以外は快適でした。もちろん、値段の割りにですが。ミャンマーは物価は安いのですが、ホテルは本当に高いです。ここは、13ドルくらいで泊まれて個室なので助かりました。すぐ近くにコンビニやレストランもあります。レンタルサイクルもありますので、市内観光はタクシーを使わなくても大丈夫です。

Fint hotel, som ligger forholdsvist centralt (5 km fra Diamond Plaza). Vi havde ingen vindue, hvilket var lidt ærgerligt, men skal man kun bruge det til at sove i, er det helt udemærket.
