ViewPoint Lodge & Fine Cuisines - Yone Gyi St

Beautiful bungalows over a large lotus pond. A bit noisy but its expected when you're booking right along the river. Nice bathrooms, comfortable bed. What I liked the most was the fact they gave complimentary traditional Shan body care such as natural shampoo and face mask you see the locals putting on their cheeks. They do also provide a generous amount of regular bath products but i thought the traditional herbal products were a wonderful way of learning and experiencing the local culture right in your hotel. Its a very "green" hotel in which they focus on environmental products and conservation which I admire. I would also like to note that the staff here went above and beyond to make my stay so wonderful. I was there back in September and the kindhearted girl at the front desk was willing to change my old US currency so that I had enough money for the day even though no one else was willing to. She was very intelligent and accommodating to my needs and even let me use the shower after check out so that I would be able to take the nightbus without the stickyness from the day tour still lingering on me. I am in so much gratitude to how amazing and thoughtful she was to me. I would also like to mention the sweet gentleman who was serving me breakfast. He made sure to accommodate to my dietary preferences and knowing that I was vegan, he gave me a handwritten note in the local language to take around with me so that I would not have trouble communicating my needs. It was very touching how kind the staff were here. Even the spa staff, the handyman and the boat tour guide they provided me with were very helpful and I would like to thank all of them for a memorable stay. The only thing I thought the hotel could improve on was providing 24 hour front desk staff as some travelers such as myself can arrive at all hours of the night. Otherwise I was very happy with my stay and the people here and the accommodations gave me great joy on my vacation.

The location is just perfect, just on the edge of the town so it's a quiet location but it's so close to the shops and restaurants. The setting is amazing - so tranquil with the rooms on stilts on the pond. Such a special experience. We were very lucky that they upgraded us to a cottage as we were on our honeymoon and the rooms were divine. Plenty of space, well designed and very comfortable. We arranged our boat trip on Inle Lake directly with one of the boatmen and he met us just outside the hotel on the morning of our boat tour, and we walked to the boat just 1 minute away. So easy. The breakfast was truly one of the best hotel breakfasts I've had, anywhere.. Not just in south east Asia! Especially the amazing croissants. All the staff were so friendly and helpful and spoke excellent English. We were blown away by this hotel! ... Now just some small comments as no place is perfect! The breakfast is amazing but I felt bad as they serve a lot so much of the food is wasted... Unless they use the leftovers? It would be good to know what they do. The food and beverage manager was very kind and offered us coffee and croissants when we arrived even though we hadn't checked in yet so food was not included that day. But then he was very pushy about booking a boat your with his friend and made us feel very guilty the next couple of days when we booked with someone else. The hotel advertises itself as an "Eco" Lodge but I think this was a bit of a gimmick. There is a lot more they could do to be Eco friendly.

Beautiful views, every detail in the room is nicely planned, super comfortable, the breakfast is delicious and has different surprises every day, the best though, is the swimming pool, which floats over a lake covered in lotus flowers. The people makes you feel welcome at every moment, the service is impecable

I’ve already added a review of the wonderful hotel. This is to add a comment about the spa, which i’ve just experienced. Had a wonderful traditional massage, as as was aching from a full day before. The spa is both welcoming, clean and beautifully pleasant. I was greeted with an unsolicited cup of ginger tea, with lemon and honey by the charming hostess. After being led into the treatment room, I was dressed in a traditional Shan outfit (which I put on the wrong way around, which delighted the hostess who let out a charming giggle and helped me out!) An hour and a half later, and a short snooze during the massage, I felt rejuvenated and ready for the next part of my trip. Tips were unexpected, but well deserved. I think she was almost embarrassed to take it, which was very endearing and speaks of their warmth. Thank you Viewpoint Spa, and thank you to the wonderful staff working there.

Stayed here for a few days and overall we were happy with it. Location is pretty convenient. Staff friendly and efficient. Nice little enclave away from the city dust!! Rooms and facilities were good and pretty quiet. Extra duvets for warmth if you need them. Breakfasts were good, a range of choices, and plentiful amounts. But a couple of annoyances: 1. The pillows we had were terrible - high and hard. I asked for an alternative, but was told they were full and had no others. So I used a spare duvet instead! 2. We ate once at the hotel restaurant for dinner - food was expensive and disappointingly bland. Overall, however, I'd return here!

This place is just perfect. The location is magical and looks far from everything and everyone but instead you're just in the heart of the city. Places for eating and the market are just a walking distance. I arrived in the early morning,they opened up for me and they served me a basket of bakery with jam and hot coffee. They turned on the fire pit and charged my phone. They gave me the room asap as they were fully booked. The room was huge and amazing, perfect in every single detail. Very attentive to recycling and save energy. The whole complex is stunning,a peaceful oasis. Staff is always smiling and does everything to help. Breakfast is wide and tasty.

It is my first time staying at Inn Lay. The rooms are big, clean, tidy and pleasantly surprised. There is a bed of lotus flowers surrounding and the area is not noisy at all. All rooms have balcony and never bored with the views from there. I'd like to rate highly about the staff. They are professional and friendly. They provide a good service throughout my stay and I am really happy about it. Not to mention, the breakfast is great. Recommended for anyone who is looking forward staying in peaceful and calm environment. Also this place is near to the market and boats service area. Thank you guys for the services provided. Cheers!

One of the best place at Nyaung Shwe Town. Price wise consider high but quality of food & plating is great as well.
