"A very hospitable new hotel about 4km outside Kalaw in a quiet area with fantastic rural views. Still getting established and with plans for a pool and spa. Great food and the staff could not be more friendly or helpful. A little quiet while we were there but probably due to low season approaching and getting themselves set up."
"Pros
1. Rooms are just okay - spartan (not big) along with toothbrush, toothpaste, bath gel, shampoo
3. Free water bottle per day
4. Refilling of water near the reception area
5. good Restaurants within 20 metres
6. Very Nice balcony - you can see the sunrise sitting in your room (provided you get the road facing room) and spend time with your friends in the huge balcony.
7. Exceptional location
8. Reasonably good Breakfast - they will take you to a nearby restaurant
Cons
1. Staff hardly...
"Great spa rooms look of the hotel but at breakfast is almost nothing to choose and menu has 12pages but nothing available room service it didn't exist as they chef was sick so they closed kitchen and wifi work for 4h of our stay the rest two days didn't
Staff is extremely polite and helpful hotel has huge potential but my experience wasn't great"
"It's atmosphere is very good with full of flowers. However, what is good ends there. The room was cold at night, electricty recepticles were sluggish and the basin cap plug did not work. The hot water capacity was too small and I had to give up filling a bath tub with hot water. Preparing breakfast was very slow."
"We only spent one night here before our 3 day trek to Inle Lake and it was an amazing hotel! The staff were all very friendly and accommodating and the breakfast was awesome. Five stars all around."
"Arrived at the hotel and hotel staff mentioned that they do not have agreement with Expedia since 2019. I wonder why Expedia still list this hotel in the website. Fully paid for rooms and still awaiting reply on refund."
"The hotel is a stunning five-star property. The restaurant is excellent. The hotel is modern and up-to-date. The service was wonderful. The spa is terrific. I didn't want to leave."
"I cannot explain enough what an AMAZING experience it was to stay here! The hotel is beautiful and the manager was beyond any expectations!! They prepared a delicious breakfast for us (even when it was not included), took care of every detail to make our stay memorable!
Thanks Viewpoint Hotel for making our stay in Inle Lake so special!"

Cons
1. Staff hardly understands English (it is true for almost all the hotels we stayed in Myanmar)
2. There is no AC or Fan. We had to tell them to give a table fan - which they gave. Considering it is a hill station , it is not a big problem. But since the height of the hill station is not great - the temperature is not that cold - when we stayed
3.When we came the owner was not there & hotel staff initially said there is no booking in our name. The hotel booking is in the name of Golden Kalaw Inn, whereas the name mentioned Infront of the hotel is Hotel Golden Kalaw.So when they said there is no booking in your name, we thought it must be some other hotel
4. Then they said we are not supposed to get any breakfast - which was also not correct. Later they did provide breakfast.
5. Then the owner said they have received payment only for 1 room and not two rooms - this is also not correct. I had to explain this to her for 6-7 min. Later we were allotted two rooms. All this causes lot of anxiety to the tourits"
