to expensive for the room you received

The rooms where very small and clean, we hardly had space to put our luggage and we didn’t bring a lot. The hotel was way to expensive for what we received. Hardly any water to take a good shower. I could not wash my hair due to the amount of water that we got

Mr John is one of the best things about this hotel

Mr John Alexander was the saving grace for this hotel because he was so helpful and friendly. The staff are friendly too and try to be helpful but their English is very limited.

The room feels a bit old, needs refreshing, for example the decorative pillows on the bed were pilling. The shower pressure was weak and it needs a good scrub. The property is nice on the outside but it’s the interior that is looking dated.

The hotel is in a peaceful part of town close to the main gardens and about 20 minute walk to the town centre.

Great Pyin Oo Lwin Hideaway

This was my second time staying at this hotel. The location is PERFECT as you're just up the road from the beautiful Kandawgyi Garden. The rooms are quite clean and it's so nice and quiet at night. If there's one complaint, I'd say the beds are a bit too hard for my liking but aside from this it's a great place. I love the morning breakfast and the super sweet and more than accommodating staff. Pan Taw Win is a great cafe across the road from this place and the hot choclate is AMAZING!

Great Stay!

We had an amazing stay in this hotel. We stayed 2 nights at this hotel and we loved it. A very quiet, clean and peaceful hotel. They have a nice little Japanese style garden. We could see that the staff are well trained. They wear apron and cap in the kitchen. The kitchen and wares are kept neat and clean. We could see them cleaning after the day's work from our balcony. The property is well maintained. They grew different kinds of fruits in their compound. Jackfruits, lychee, pamelo to name a few. They kept the corridors well lit throughout the entire night. The staff were friendly, helpful and attentive to our needs. The hotel is located quite close to the National Kandawgyi Garden and there are many restaurants close by. The hotel itself serves Japanese sake and food. We love the tempura mushroom. The hot pots can be improved though. The soup has been absorbed by the many ingredients in the pot. The fried mixed vegetables is too oily for our liking. Coffee can be stronger. We brought the nescafe packets provided in the room to add in. Nevertheless, we strongly recommend this hotel to anyone who visits Maymyo aka Pyin Oo Lwin.

Not bad, not great, but more than adequate.

Welcome at Akimono was lackluster. We had to carry our bags from our car into reception before we were met by staff. From that point on the welcome was warm and effusive. I always appreciate th warm greeting which is typical in Myanmar.

The room itself was very simple but adequate. Because of the grounds and surroundings in Pyin Oo Lwin, there were a few creepy crawlies, but nothing too awful.

Breakfast was the most disappointing. They were very few options and the presentation was not great.
The grounds of the hotel we're covered with beautiful few fruit trees. There were a jackfruit, rambutan, lychee, and even peaches! This was a lot of fun and made for a really cool exploring on the territory.
I understand that the hotel has a Japanese theme. Unfortunately it gives a survey of bifurcated personality to the hotel. The staff, architecture, and overall feel of the place was definitely local. But there is a Japanese restaurant (which we did not try) and a sort of half hearted Japanese garden.

Would we stay here again? Probably not. If there were nothing else available then I would. But I would not go out of my way to book a room here again.

No shower.

Perhaps our was broken but it was simply a small and low hand held with no pressure that barely let out a drip. We had to 'shower' in the sink. Room smelled powerfully of mothballs. Staff was great.

sasci Service is not in professional

What a shame to have the hotel with nice environment but without staff in good and polite.manner. Staff of house keeping and the reception are unprofessional in sufficient knowledge to know about the exact problem, instead of just blame and condemn that is the mistake of the customer on using the room facilities. English standard is not good enough for confident to speak in person. Room is too small.

추천하고 싶지 않은 호텔

1.창문이 많아 1-2월은 춥습니다.
2.아침 조식 성의없고 초라함.
3.오픈초기에는 친절했는데 최근에는 너무 상업적으로 변질됨[예, 미얀마 돈을 지불해도되는데 달러로 동일한 금액을 지불하도록 함=> 폭리를 취하려고함]
4.최근 핀우린 인근에 고급호텔이 오픈하거나 저렴한 호텔이 있으니 가급적 투숙을 자재하기 바람
