Hotels Near High-tech Water Park in Taunggyi

Stayed here for one night. Very friendly and helpful staff. The hotel is at the edge of the city center. Good thing there is an elevator! Room was nicely equipped and there was a night table and bedside lamps. It was also neat and clean. Bathroom: in the sink only cold water as the faucet was stuck/ couldn’t be turned. The lightswitches for the room were behind the bed in the middle which was a little inconvenient. Wifi worked well in the room. Unfortunately the walls seem to be very thin as we heard neighbours laughing and taking a shower. Only one point was a bit icky: the A/C above the bed really badly needs a cleaning: as it was cool we luckily didn’t need it but I don’t want to imagine all the dirt falling on my head when turning it one- see foto...Buffet breakfast was fine. Overall stay was satisfactory.

I found out this hotel with my friend's recommendation and it was my right choice staying there. Hotel is lovely and located by the main road and easy access to places where we wanna visit. The Hotel Owner were very helpful and even they provided special rate. The room was decorated with wooden and breakfast was served with traditional meals.

The hotel has a beautiful environment, comfortable and fresh, and the key people are kind, considerate and meticulous. It is a very good experience to experience the simplicity and kindness of the people of Inle.

The hotel was nice. The room was huge (suite for 3) and very clean. They helped us to book local massages but everything else we booked/found out ourselves as they had very little to tell us. We asked about using the free bikes mentioned on their website as were told they were not safe to use. We asked where we could hire mountain bikes/ good quality bikes and they didn’t know. They could only suggest 1 bike shop that hires dodgy looking cheap bikes. We asked about kayaking around the lake but they had no idea. When asked about other things to do around here we were told about a boat trip and was quoted 10000 kyat more than what we paid the day before. When asked what else we could do there were no suggestions other than ‘walk through town’. There is no obvious place for information or a book of suggested trips anywhere. Breakfast was fine but everything was stone cold, including eggs. It took us 3 days to realise that you could ask for local noodles (only because we saw other people eating them) which were yummy. We spent a lot of time each morning waiting for them to refill water/ crepes/ eggs/ pancakes etc. At checkout I was told I had to pay 3.5% for using any card (even a local card as I work in Yangon). This is not the case in Yangon or in Bagan or anywhere else we have travelled in Myanmar. So add an extra $8 to the cost of the room. Booking.com stated that I would pay in dollars on the day ‘according to the exchange rate’. However the lady at reception said their machine is incapable of charging in dollars. This isn’t a problem really but then I found out that they don’t amend the exchange rate daily and that they have a flat rate. That flat rate meant I was charged a further 12000 kyat ($8). So in all I paid $16 more than anticipated. This is my second trip Nyaung Shwe and after being given very little help with what to do here and being charged more money, I’d say go elsewhere.

After 2 years of staying at home in Myanmar during Covid, we were ready for a trip. I wanted to see a bit of Myanmar finally. We booked the Aureum on the recommendation of a friend and a great promotion on the website. We really didn't pay too much attention to the description and figured it would just be a nice hotel. When we arrived we were blown away by the accommodations. Beautiful rooms, gorgeous grounds, a great pool, and delicious food. But what made the place most inviting was the staff. Manager Daw Pa Pa Min takes great pride in taking good care of her guests. Hnin Nu Maw in the restaurant was always cheerful, helpful and attentive. And bellman Aung Aung, who also was our excellent boat captain, made our trip outside the hotel fun. The entire staff was friendly and helpful. They made our stay very comfortable. We will definitely return and hope to spend more time exploring Inle.
