Excellent staff
Everyone from the day manager and night manager, staff on the front desk, staff that served our breakfast, the kitchen staff, housekeeping (who cleaned our room daily and who put clean sheets etc on our bed when I was vomiting because of food poisoning in the middle of the night) to the man on the front door who always greeted us with a smile. The girls on the front desk were so sweet and the manager very helpful. I did enjoy my stay there. The hotel was having renovations but it didn't impact on our stay too much. There was a change of management/owner and the hotel is now called "Pleasure View" In saying all of this I will add that I was quite terrified each time I had to cross the road in front of hotel. Over time I did learn to not cross alone. I watched the locals cross in small groups and joined them. The hotel is situated in a good position to visit Swengon Pagoda and close to " French Eclair" restaurant owned by a local man who was very nice and helpfull. The strawberry smoothies are fantastic along with the eclairs and other dishes.

No water supply for almost 3 days
Worse experience staying in a hotel.... with no water for 3 days (Thankfully was only in the day time) and water has got a sewage smell! Room was decent in size but very old and filled with mosquitoes... Only compensation was the helpful and friendly staff... apart from that nothing else is worth mentioning.

We all feel so sorry about your inconvenience Ms Esther. We are welcoming you to come back again & at that time we will provide free dinner & special room rate for you. Smell are from municipal water pipe, we've tried very hard to clean it, that's why mosquitoes are showing up. We hope to see you again & pleasure to serve you soon.

Clean Hotel with Helpful & Friendly Staff
Frankly, the hotel is a little old, but not run down. However, the staff are very helpful & friendly. Breakfast portion is good & generous. Location is near to the ShweDagon Pagoda. Walking time is about 20mins. Location wise, it's between the old town -- China town & the new town -- Inya Lake area. Grab taxi service is very2 convenient & I strongly suggest visitors use the app rather than flagging down a taxi along the roadside. Given the price of the hotel, it's still worth the stay.

Perfect place to stay while in Yangon.
I stayed in Pleasand View Hotel for three nights and would highly recommend this place for others.The service was brilliant, especially from the night manager, who have helped us to organise and book a bus to Bagan, and the following morning was kind enough to serve us the breakfast at a very early time of 5.30am, just before ordering a taxi from Grab, that was a couple of thousand Kyats less that if we were to get a taxi individually from the street. The hotel is ideally located for visiting Shwedagon Pagoda that is easily accessible by walking, but you will need to get a local bus No 61 right to the downtown of Yangon. Also you could get a local bus No 36 right from the main bus station to get to the hotel, but remember that in a rush hour it will take you around an hour to get to and from the bus station to the centre of Yangon regardless of whether you choose to travel by taxi or a local bus.

Great breakfast and service!
We moved from a hotel downtown where the neighborhood was just too gritty so really appreciated this nice little oasis in Yagon. The staff was very helpful and gracious and helped us at every moment. Although with they had warned us that they send out laundry, spent $18 on a small load as they charge per item and we did a bunch of socks and underwear. Internet did not work very well but I think that's Myanmar more than this hotel. Breakfast is really well done!!!

Hotel close to Shwe Dagon Pagoda
The staff really make this a pleasant stay. If you actually want a view of the pagoda you probably need a better quality room than what I got. However, the view rooms probably have noice from the street that is always busy. You may already know that when in Myanmar it is apparently required to honk your horn every several seconds to announce your presence. Again, the staff is very helpful.

Only top class rooms nice; eschew mothballs
The people who work here are very, very nice. The food in the restaurant is good too, although the free breakfast was so-so. When we checked in, we were stunned at how small our room was, much smaller than the photos convey. So we upgraded on the spot to the top class of room, which was larger and had a fabulous view. It would seem only this one class of rooms has any kind of view at all. Being vulnerable as we were, we had to pay a relatively high price to upgrade so be sure to reserve and pay for the nicer room in advance unless you don't mind sleeping in a shoe box. Finally, and importantly, this place puts mothballs in the closet so the room reeked when we got there. Even though I got them out of there right away, we were still headachy and sneezing for the first day. I suggest you tell them to prepare your room for your arrival by removing the mothballs and airing it out. Again, the view from the top class of room is just fabulous and the staff at the hotel are great!

Excellent staff, excellent breakfast.
Amazing staff - very friendly, attentive and fair. We booked the first night online. The hotel automatically validated this rate for additional nights we stayed. Very simple. They provide you with free umbrella if it rains or is too hot. They have a choice of breakfast. Western bread, omlette, veg etc or Burmese noodles , fried rice etc, made for you. You get fruits, juice and tea/coffee. It isn't a buffet so you don't need to rush downstairs before everything is gone.. highly recommend this hotel. Downside : pillows are way too hard.

Holiday in Yangon
The bathroom floor gets flooded easily although the water clears eventually. The hot shower is a bit inconsistent. There isn't much of a view from the hotel as we had expected "pleasant view". Other than this, it's a good location for venturing around various attractions within 15-30 minutes walk. The staffs are very friendly and helpful. It's over-priced as compared to many other similar sized hotels with similar facilities in SE Asia or in other parts of Myanmar.
