Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The staff are students and they are really nice. They can speak English. Free breakfast, they have 24 hours receptionist. And they are very helpful. The location is also close to money changers and Sule Pagoda. The bunk bed is huge for me and very comfortable.

    All the staff were always really friendly, helpful and attentive. We enjoyed the rooftop pool and the hotel was quite grand. The room was very spacious and comfortable with good aircon so that we could get a good night's sleep in the heat. The location in Downton Yangon was handy for a lot of trips we did, although the immediate street of the hotel had some colourful nightlife but it was safe enough.

    It's being run by student undertaking the hotel course, they are friendly and energetic. Everything has been beyond my expectation, this hostel is better than most hostels I have stayed in Europe. You can hardly see a foreign tourist in the country at the moment due to the political situation, but the city itself is very safe to travel. Grab your ticket and visa and explore this beautiful country with amazing people!
