Hi Yeliz,

Happy New Year!

We had a great time in Myanmar, enjoyed visiting.... It was another memorable holiday, thank you for your all effort!!!

The guide service was all ok... The level of English was good, always on time and they tried their best to help us... The guides at Yangon, Bagan and Inle lake impress us the most....! Gave lots of informations, good sense of humor and they handle everything very professionally, was perfect!!! And the drivers were all very polite, very safe and very proper.

Traders Hotel at Yangon and Thande Hotel at Bagan we liked the most.... Rooms,services, breakfast,location....etc were all up to our expectations...!

At Inle, Paradise Inle Resort was a nice hotel but we thought it would be perfect if we could stay in town.. Rooms were very nice, very well decorated but on the other hand Inle Lake was cold and we felt a bit uncomfortable. Hot water was not very efficient too, finishes quickly... And the food there was not our favourite!!! In general, is a very characteristic hotel but if you are not with a big group, it tends to really become boring after the first night. So other 2 nights we prefered to spent time in town and our tour guide did her best to arrange transportation back to the hotel at night, thank her very much!

At Ngapali Beach, we arrived the Thande Beach Resort around 11am but we learned chek in time is 13.30pm so we wait quite a while.... it was a nice hotel and breakfast was nice too but again hot water was not very efficient, it pours very little and the room was clean expect couple of hairs forgotten in the shower....!

Mya Nyeik Nyo Royal Hotel, the staff there was very helpful... but Traders would be better for foreigners!

And the last is Mandalay Swan Hotel.... Unfortunately i have to say that although the staff was kind, the hotel was far below our expectations...!!!Room was in very poor conditions and not properly cleaned.....!!!! In the city there were much better accomadation available... and of course no continental breakfast.....

And lunch, we liked the most Padonmar Restaurant at Yangon and Green Tea Restaurant close to Pindaya cave....The environment was so nice, food was so delicious and the service was so good...

We will check the link for the pics, thank you very much

Have a nice week
