Amazing new boutique hotel by the lake.
Brand new hotel near airport. Requested a hotel pick up from the airport. US $5. Hotel is by the lake so go for morning jogging. A drive to downtown cost US $3 but traffic is quite bad. Breakfast is very basic so do not expect too much. The services are amazing as the hotel is fully staff. Will go back again.

Couldn’t ask for anything better.
There is not one thing to complain about with this hotel. It has been our go-to hotel when we’ve needed a hotel in the northeast part of Yangon. It’s perfectly modern, plus near a lake with a nice walking park. It’s off the main road far enough that you don’t hear the traffic noises. The only thing I would mention is that the smoking area is in the hallway near the elevators. So if you get a room near the elevators it can be quite smoky. We always ask for a room at the end of the hall as far away from the elevators as possible.

Promised Airport shuttle then withdrawn.
Hotel was fine, but trying to get the promised airport shuttle advertised on the hotels.com site for a different stay at the end of our visit has proved impossible. Although confirmed before we left, follow up email said can't have it.

Clean and modern hotel with lovely staff!
Great little hotel close to airport. We stayed here as we needed to go to airport at 04:30am. The staff were very friendly and organised multiple taxis into town at very cheap rates.. Big room which was very comfortable and extremely clean. Would recommend this hotel to others looking for value near the airport!

Why Myanmar friend is not allow to stay with me
My Myanmar was bringing me around during my stays in Galaxy hotel and sometimes it quite late, so I am wondering why he is not allow to stay overnight. Do I need to pay for my Myanmar Friend allow to stay with me? Was the room rate meant for one or two persons? I am suggesting it would be nice to add fresher to some floors, especially when others smoke cigarettes, it enters into the room. On the whole I have enjoyed the service and the staff assistance during my stays. Thank you.

Good afternoon Mr. Anonymous, Firstly, thanks for your feedback and staying with us. We would like you to know that why we didn't accept to enter the lady. Because the girl was under 18 and she didn't bring Myanmar ID card. According to Myanmar Immigration law, the girl who (under 18 or not holding Myanmar ID card) are strictly prohibited to stay with the stranger (man). So that, we have to check before the lady come to join the room. Hope you will understand why I am explaining to you this issue. Thank you and regards, Galaxy Team

Staff: 10: Manager: 0
The Lady Clerks and Bell Boys were VERY cordial and helpful. After two nights pleasant stay, I checked out at 8:30 for a day of sight-seeing and shopping. The Staff graciously allowed me to leave my luggage as my flight did not leave until 10:10 P.M. Upon returning at 7:00 P.M., I asked for a TOILET. I needed to "freshen up" before my 2-Day trip home to the USA. Instead, the Manager, without speaking, gave me a KEY to a first floor room. Within minutes, the Manager began harassing me. I never used their towels, etc. and left the bathroom SPOTLESS, even drying the Vanity (using the floor mat) where I had shaved and brushed my teeth. I returned the key to the front desk with a 10,000 Ks bill (about a third of a night's stay) the Manager rejected it and began using arm signals indicating clearly that he was THROWING ME OUT! I rebutted, "I am a paying foreign customer and you are treating me this way? I asked for a TOILET, not a room. I travel to Myanmar twice a year, so do you want my future business or not?" He continued with his despicable, disrespectful arm gestures. For the sake of Galaxy Hotel's Future, this Manager needs to be FIRED or at least sharply reprimanded and sent to a Dale Carnage School to learn "How to Win Friends and Influence People".

Pleasant hotel near yangon airport
Hotel is near a monastery, so can consider safe surrounding and only 10-20 mins from Yangon airport. When we 1st enter the hotel lobby and lift, gave a fresh and high-tech feel. Room is clean and comfort. Problem with bathtub height, need to climb to get in and out. Simple breakfast but different from other hotels as it provides porridge.

New and fine for what I needed.
Large room, new hotel, good security. Food was ok. Breakfast a bit sparse. Mattresses were super hard and pillows could double as sandbags in case of flood, but all in all a pleasant stay.

Decent hotel if a little out of the way
can't really fault the hotel tbh. Extensive English isn't widely spoken by staff so my issues were caused more by the language barrier rather than by problems at the hotel itself. The one drawback many people will have is that the hotel is not located close to any of Yangoons attractions and there isn't that much located locally in terms of shops/restaurants.

Hotel is as advertised
I've mentioned this before but I'll do so again as Hotels.com is incapable of replying to emails: many hotels do not recognise Hotels.com as a legitimate entity. Bookings made with this site are recorded under Expedia (Hotels.com's parent company) with most merchants; and booking reference numbers for Hotels.com and Expedia do not match. This frequently leads to much confusion between travellers and merchants. I would ask Hotels.com to rectify this but they either do not care or are too incompetent to fix the problem and haven't ever answered the customer service hotline.

もう行かない
先に一人でチェックインして嫁が後から来た時、娼婦と勘違いされた。 部屋のエアコンも効かず、シャワーも滴るくらい。こんなもんかと思ってたけど、さすがに暑いので部屋を変えてもらったらエアコンもシャワーも普通に使えた。最初から最後までモヤモヤの旅行になった。朝食のバイキングも前の客で無くなった皿がそのまま。他の客も待たせっぱなし。

그저그래요... 저가이어서 장기투숙을 했는데, 직원들 교육도 별루고 청결상태는 나쁘지 않은데, 위치가 너무 북쪽이라 교통이 많이 막혀요. 공항 때문에 단기로 있을 예정이라면, 그런대로 하루 보낼만 합니다. 단, wifi는 포기하심이 좋을듯요.

ヤンゴン空港から近い
夜遅く着き現地ガイドとホテルにチェックインいたしました。所要時間は10分足らずでしたが、非常にわかりにくい場所でした。ホテルには5SGL/1TWNの部屋を予約しておりましたが、ツインが用意されておりません。フロントではもともとツインの部屋がない、シングルも満室で用意出来ないと一点張りでした。そのうちシングルのベットを入れるのは可能とのこと、それなら始めから用意してくればと思った次第でした。朝食も7時からです6時30分からは用意出来ない、弁当も出来ないと言っていましたが、パンとコーヒーだけでもと交渉しましたら卵料理なども用意して頂くことになりました。何とか我々の要望を聞き入れて頂いた次第でした。

Nicht weit vom Flughafen, aber ruhig gelegen
Das Hotel liegt in einer Seitenstraße. Anfahrt zum Flughafen circa 20 Minuten. Frühstücksbuffet war recht abgefressen, und es wurde nicht mehr aufgefüllt. Personal spricht sehr schlecht englisch. Aber insgesamt ist das Hotel eine recht gute Wahl.
