Guest Reviews

- Mahinda (10/5): - Rxelent service and very kind personal
- KYAW NYUNT (10/5): - A good place to stay for both local and international guests.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The view from the 10th floor was amazing. The room size is just perfect.
- Allen (8/5): - Nice size room with nice view of temple but far away local neighborhood has nothing tos see and very dirty
- Verified traveler (8/5): - No comments except that I would stay again gladly.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Everything was very good. Room could use a bit of updating. Beautiful new bathroom. Included breakfast was very good compared to many I have had. Small market next door. ATM on property.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Really nice staff who didn't understand english that well but never failed to try to help and always succeeded in the end...free shuttle buses helped costs...great FREE breakfast with smiling, friendly servers...good internet and tons of hot water...would stay nowhere else if in Yangon...
- David (10/5): - I like it I be back I recommend all to friends and family
- Mag (8/5): - This is the second time I'm staying at this hotel since 2014. We chose this hotel because they have family rooms that can accommodate our large group. Their rooms were spacious, breakfast and fitness center were also great. My only complaint is there was a moldy smell in one of the rooms. I also felt that they could've arranged non-smoking rooms on higher floors. We stayed on the 6th floor, but the hallway was still full of cigarette smell from the lower floors. Other than the smell the rooms were pretty clean.
- Lisa (10/5): - The hotel is close enough to walk to the market.. about 20 minutes.. not too noisy which is great. I am staying in a top class hotel now and to be honest this hotel is no where near as noisy . Has a supermarket/ chemist next door Staff were brilliant.. and the breakfast very good... definitely recommend 😀
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Short circuit many times Needs to improve! Service is excellent!
- Elizabeth (8/5): Comfortable room. - Comfortable hotel a short cab ride from downtown. Supermarket and bakery close by.
- adrian (4/5): Pls don't stay here...better options elsewhere ! - Absolutely horrible...no air con 3 nights out of 5. Wifi keeps dropping and I could barely complete do any work !
- Chaiyasit (8/5): - Services are good and the location of hotel is convenient nearby supermarket therefore, no need to carry too many personal things. We can drop by and buy anything from Supermaket.
- Sankar (8/5): Grand Unitwd Yangon - It was a good hotel to stay for a family. Only draw back is one washroom only in a one bedroom configuration. With so many Indians travelling to Yangon some Indian food options in breakfast would be off help
- wanwisa (10/5): - I like service and breakfast.
- Alexander (8/5): Best balcony view ever - Ever so tired wallpaper and a few dead plants in the corridor, but the view from our Junior Suite balcony more than made up for the small imperfections. Good breakfasts with a big choice. Grab taxi easiest way to get around. Hotel to 19th Street around 2000kyats
- WEE (8/5): travelling with ease,esp places of interest - staffs,really friendly. they also go out of their way to assit when time permit them.
- ee hooi (8/5): Have stayed there thrice - Nice place as good service
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hotel - Hotel is very near supermarket, breakfast have many choices of food and delicious, nice staff, comfortable.
- ee hooi (8/5): A good choice - A simple n clean hotel.
- C (8/5): Easy access - Next door,you have a supermarket, noodle and bakery shop. Believe it covered, pretty much what you need. A short taxi drive,bring you to mega shopping mall and hotels. No regrets..it my 5 stayed...
- C B Wee (8/5): Nice surrounding, it not too busy area. - My 3rd stayed in this hotel. In general, easy getting around. City mart is just next door,especially last minute shopping to be done.
- Soe Win (10/5): Nice hotel and all the staffs are very friendly . - The breakfast is very good and we will choose the hotel again when we go back to Myanmar.
- Baby (10/5): very nice and low cost hotel. - staff are friendly and polite. Free breakfast has variety of delicious food. The only problem I had is that the toilet paper is too small, fragile and very poor demarcation lines for tearing.
- Yim Fun (10/5): Near National Museum Yangon, short ride to downtwn - Short Taxi ride is 2000 kyats to Shwedagon Pagoda and 3000 kyats to Bogyoke market (as at Mar 2018). Check out with Hotel on their free shuttle to major attractions. As per our rating given, plus good value price booked from Expedia, make our stays wonderful.
- Thar (6/5): Type of Room - Overall are fine, but I don't know how to reserve type of the room via expedia. Because the reservation put me in square room without window !!!
- Doug (8/5): value for money - Everything was as it should be.Location fairly convenient and supermarket and chemist close .Shopping mall not to far away either.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice staff , comfortable , very near supermarket - - Nice service - Comfortable - Near Supermarket - Hotel can see "Shwedagon Pagoda" - And staff upgrade room from no window to superior
- Rattanun (8/5): Good location near Sule Pagoda - Room is well clean. Breakfast is good with many choices of food.
- Hendy (10/5): - The hotel is well located in the city centre. The staff are very friendly. The price is responsible. I will stay here again next time.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The staff were extremely warm and helpful, and the room was pretty clean. Free bottles of water were restocked each day, which was helpful given how tap water in Myanmar isn't fit for drinking. The breakfast spread was quite diverse, too. The only gripe I have is that the wifi in my room only seemed to work in the bathroom.
- Kama'aina (8/5): Good enough for a few days in Yangon - Requested a double bed, but received a room with two twins, but the fact that they got me any room during my extremely early 6:30am check in, made up for it. Not far from the temple and a nice shopping mall is 15 minutes away on foot. Nice gym with cardio and some weights. Superb breakfast! Dinner in the restaurant was good too.
- paul (4/5): Service/Good Facility, Location/No Good - Really, who wants to stay in a hotel just directly opposit a hospital. Matter of fact the hotel was used to be hospital as well and it was converted. Worse bathroom lay-out. The shiwer head was just behind the bathriom door and i meant just behind. Strange. The whole bathroom got wet when you showered. You can smell the toilet right at your bed because there is a window from the bed open to the toilet. Really strange. Location is near nowhere. SERVICE IS EXCELLENT
- tom (10/5): Great hotel handy to everything - Best breakfast I had throughout Myenmar. Value for money is great and accommodation excellent.
- Took (8/5): Nice hotal - Vary good in brakefast , cleaned room, nice staf , nice bath roòm and very comfortable
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent stay & service in Yangon - We had an excellent stay at Hotel Grand United and were extremely pleased with the hotel staff! We booked a standard double bedroom for one night at a very reasonable price for the off-season (early October). We arrived at the hotel at 7am after taking an overnight bus from Kalaw to Yangon and the hotel staff unexpectedly checked us in early, upgraded our room, and provided us with a complimentary breakfast. After we checked out the next morning, we stored our luggage at the hotel all day and were able to shower in the gym before heading to the airport. The room itself was very clean and comfortable, had a nice view of the city, and was well stocked with bottled water. The restaurant offered a wide selection of food for breakfast. Because hotel is a bit outside of the city center, it provided free daily shuttle service to a few of the major tourist spots. We used this service once, but actually found the hotel to be a nice walking distance from many activities/sites, including the Shwedagon Pagoda. We highly recommend this hotel and will suggest to any friends visiting in the future.
- Pongsakorn (8/5): Worth to stay - Good compared with other
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Really good location, staff very helpful, morning Buffet was delicious. Beds were comfortable and clean. 1 thing the towels need to be change, towels were stain and hard.
- Robert (8/5): Pretty good hotel for the price - For Yangon, this hotel is your middle of the road hotel. Services are great, but can be cleaner.
- Anshra (8/5): Very friendly hotel - The hotel staff were very friendly. We were given a good choice at breakfast. The hotel facilities were good. Every time our room was cleaned we were given plenty of complementary water bottles and other products. My only complaint is that the corridor smells of mould . The room also smelt of mould when we first got there. They need to freshen up the carpets and air the rooms more.
- Win (8/5): Good location within reach to tourist' attractions - Reasonable price for a double adjoining rooms which is very convenient for a family with teenagers. Rooms are cleaned and requests are accommodated by staffs at once. Breakfast is included and a variety of foods available for almost everyone. Would stay again.
- Win (10/5): Great price hotel for a family with teenagers. - Good locations to tourist' spots. Good price especially having family adjoining rooms with laundry and a kitchenette. Staffs are very helpful and accommodating. A variety of breakfasts are offered for almost everyone' choice.
- Soe (10/5): Great Hotel especially for family stay - We have stayed in this hotel many times because it has well suited Family room. Superior rooms are small, but Deluxe rooms are better. The price is reasonable. Breakfast is great.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Nice rooms, nice staff, zero vibe. Very standard, Chinese-style tourist hotel. Not a ton of personality, but a nice gym.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Nice hotel with delicious breakfast. Kind helpful staff. Poor wifi and extremely firm beds
- pat (8/5): value for money and great gym - very good hotel. Great breakfast and gym for a hotel in this price range. not many food options around though but close to the train station.
- Etsuko (8/5): - Wish have better late check out flexibility
- alang siddiq (10/5): Great Place and View - i am really like hotel service, view and facilities provide. its complete.
- Valendro (10/5): Diamond In The Rough - In the midst of a third world country trying to open its borders and develop itself into the modern era, there are not many places that stand out in quality just yet. The Grand United Hotel chain is one of those things. It is very modern and very comfortable. It is relatively new having been built in 2013. It has multilingual staff, wifi, exercise room with equipment and sauna, a very good dinning service, and a large free breakfast. The prices for food are a lot more expensive than most places but the quality and portions are rather large. I stayed there for 10 days and I wish I could have stayed longer. The thing that made this a perfect five star rating is their willing to do whatever a customer needs and directly listen to feedback. I was given a survey a few days before my stay actually ended and I mentioned a few improvements to their western food and the next morning at breakfast those improvements I recommended were already in place.
- alan (8/5): Good place to stay. - Hotel well placed to start from.taxis essential but always available. Nothing locally so need to go to city centre at night or eat in hotel. Very enjoyable stay. Hotel good. Staff helpful good English.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hotel near local shops - Very pleasant attentive staff, nice reception area with welcoming drink. All amenities provided. Close to local shops and delicious street food. Very good selection buffet breakfast. Near to circle line train station. Would stay there again
- Simon (10/5): Good family room - Very helpful service staff. The family room was a double room that suited our needs very well. The washing machine was great too. Huge selection with the buffet breakfast. Taxis always at the ready as soon as you walk outside the lobby doors. Not too far via taxi to parks and zoo.
- Marc (8/5): Good, reasonable price for value - About 40-45 minutes walk to Shwedagon pagoda and about 40-45 minutes walk to Chinatown/Sula pagoda. Good breakfast, not so appealing, but many choices. Choices of different room rates, I had a large room with balcony for reasonable price compared to others hotels of same category. Good Wifi.
- Diogo (8/5): Very good value. - Very pleased with my stay at Hotel Grand United. The room was clean, breakfast was one of the best I had in Myanmar and the staff was generally friendly and happy to accommodate my requests. Wi-fi was reliable and fast in comparison with other hotels. The only con was the location, which is a bit faraway from most landmarks and sights in Yangon.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Breakfast was good and the hotel changed towels every day. Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful.
- alice (2/5): Don't even think about it! - Room full of mosquitos. Not appropriate area fort tourists. Kitchen useless. Water didn't even run.
- Michael (6/5): Good hotel! - Not a bad hotel, but not really close to much interesting stuff, very nice staff, older building but very clean and well kept up. I enjoyed my stay.
- dawn (8/5): value for money hotel - i was impressed when the hotel provided us with free upgrade. breakfast was good and simple. however, wifi in room was not stable
- ELANGOVAN (4/5): Feedback about the Hotel - (I Total booked 01 J/suit and 3 Single room) 1. Aircon in suit room was too small for the room. I need to pull the bed nearer to the aircon to sleep. I think the management need you upgrade to bigger aircon. 2. Room service did not clean the room neatly. 3. Room service charge me us2 for a bucket of ice cubes and US $2 service charge. This is my first time in my travel experience I have paid for ICE cubes. 4. I personally felt that the staff were not friendly. I travel 6 to 8 times a year. Any way thanks for the stay.
- Deb (8/5): Best hotel gym ever - This hotel was a mid-range and generally comfortable hotel a little away from the main drag. We booked a windowless room, which is great for sleeping in when you're light sensitive, and it did the job. Maybe a bit more light would have been nice as some of the lightbulbs were not working but overall not a big deal. A little scent of chemicals lingered in the room but perhaps it was from work on adjacent rooms. Food was tasty and the hotel fitness center was awesome!
- Margaret (10/5): GREAT PLACE TO STAY - 10 out of 10 for this place Can not fault it. The food for breakfast fantastic. Dinners on the second floor very high standard.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Wifi and TV connection very lousy! - -Wifi and TV connection very lousy! -Other services good
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice view - The view of Shwedagon pagoda made the room perfect for relaxation.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - THE STAFF ARE VERY FRIENDLY EVEN THE DOORMAN AND BREAKFAST ARE ACCEPTABLE
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Location doesn't seem the best. Nothing noteworthy within walking distance.
- Angie (8/5): Good location in walking distance to down town - Walking to downtown Yangon is a breeze. Train Station and public busses are easily available and taxis are cheap and easy to get. Hotel staff is patient, friendly, helpful and very honest! Restaurant and Cafe have good food at reasonable prices and even send up to the room. A good hotel in the right spot. We will be back for sure!
- eric (10/5): Great hotel and amazing staff. - Great place. Not much around location. Not good for walking. No shops or eating around hotel in walking condition.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good hotel, clean, value for money, and friendly staff. Wifi can still be better and faster though
- Melissa (10/5): Good location - This is my first time in Yangon with my partner. I'm glad to have booked this hotel as it has a good location. It is near Taw Win Centre and good few mins away from downtown! Opted for a room with balcony and a view of the city with shwedagon pagoda! Had a lovely stay for a week! We will definitely come back to this hotel soon for visiting.
- Kevin (8/5): Lovely hotel. Friendly staff. - Nice hotel and very friendly and helpful staff. Clean room and bathroom. Quiet neighbourhood a short drive from town centre. Always a taxi outside and doorman hails the taxi and confirms the price if you wish. It's a cheap trip into town. Hotels in Yangon are expensive for what you get and this hotel isn't any different but it is a decent and well managed hotel with gym and nice buffet breakfast. Get a couple of hotel cards at reception with hotel address and handy little map to show any taxi driver who may be unsure where it is. We enjoyed our stay and will go back there next time in Yangon.
- Verified traveler (8/5): location not good - hotel condition is good but location not so good. everytime take tuk tuk charge 3 dollar. can get better hotel at riverside.
- Kenji (4/5): Far fro Downtown. - It seemed not so far form Downtown on maps but it was, since Myanmar's infrastructure (public transportation systems) still hasn't improved.
- Victoria (10/5): Classy hotel with a great breakfast - I really liked my stay here. I had a very spacious and elegant room with a great view. The free breakfast was a treat in the morning. Don't miss it. The hotel was a very good choice for me. I would certainly recommend it.
- Sam (10/5): Great view and super friendly staff - I went to Yangon for work and this hotel was very well located, close enough to the centre but far from all the noise and crowds. the room was great and the staff one of the most friendliest I have met. The food was good (I missed some brown bread, but nothing else).
- susan (8/5): Reasonable little hotel - An OK hotel but reception staff could do with some training on what is available in the local area. Friendly waiter at breakfast who spoke very good English. The small cafe opposite does a reasonable meal. Glass outside lift wasn't as scary as it seems.
- Marlon (10/5): - Arrived at 6am and hoped for an early check in. The receptionist said that they are fully booked and they cannot accommodate the request. Instead, they let us use their gym to freshen up (because we came from a 9-hour bus ride from Mandalay. In addition, they also gave us complimentary breakfast even though we have not checked in yet! On top of that, they upgraded our room to Juinor Suite! Sweet!
- Verified traveler (6/5): Yangon tourist. - New property. Good price/quality ratio. Cheap taxis anywhere. Decent breakfast. Very poor cable TV. If you are taking an interior standard room (cheapest option), ask for a full bathroom.
- Sandra (4/5): Under whelming - The lobby was really tacky and not inviting. The lobby staff was not very friendly or helpful. The room looked a lot nicer online than in person. The bed was very uncomfortable.
- kelly (8/5): Great stay! - Great breakfast, wonderful staff!
- calvin (10/5): - One of the best in terms of price, breakfast, cleanness, staff service.
- Lucas (8/5): - My stay here was acceptable. Nothing was terrible, but nothing was exceptional either (except for the meal that I had in the cafe. It was really good.) It's walkable to the Shwedagon Pagoda, and it's in a fairly quiet area of Yangon near some consulates. The staff were friendly but didn't make too much effort. My room was fine - it was small with a small window, but roaming dogs made a racket at night, which I suppose is all part of the experience of staying in Yangon.
- Shwe Mra (10/5): Clean and nice hotel - Stayed there 6 nights. Friendly and polite staffs. Clean and comfort room. Varieties of choices in complementary breakfast and were delicious. Bang for the buck. Strongly recommended.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Clean hotel to stay in Yangon - The hotel is located at the edge of the town. The conditions of the road make it very hard to walk around the hotel which is also apply to any hotel in Yangon. The hotel itself is ok and good for stay overnight in Yangon. I probably will skip Yangon next time if I visit Myanmar again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Not a bad hotel to stay in Yangon - We stayed one night before we flew to Inle lake and one night before we flew out the country. The rooms were big, clean but quite basic. Staffs were friendly and helpful.
- Daniel (8/5): Wonderful hotel! - This is a wonderful hotel with great staff. Although the rooms are a little old, they are big, clean and comfortable. There is plenty of hot water, and the gym and breakfast buffet were great-that is, unless you are looking for a purely western breakfast. There isn't much in the immediate vicinity of the hotel, but you are a very short cab ride from the Shwedagon Pagoda and Yangon Museum (both are also within walking distance). Finally, the best part of the hotel is the staff. They are friendly, professional and genuinely helpful.
- Matthew (4/5): Avoid - Rubbish! If you were to look at my other reviews, I am not overly critical of hotels. However, I would avoid staying here. Reception staff were very abrupt, restaurant staff ripped us off, the location is average and the rooms so very dark. There are much better hotels in Yangon.
- Duy (10/5): Quiet hotel, accessible to everywhere easily - The hotel room is a bit small, specially the bathroom, but acceptable. The wifi is sometime very slow or no connection. The breadfast is quite good, staff is very helpful. The hotel is a bit far from other sites, but with taxis (quite cheap, around 2-4K Kyat) we can reach everywhere so location is not an issue, however during the night it is really quiet to sleep.
- Karen (8/5): Smart hotel, fantastic view - We normally stay at the Chinatown branch, which is pretty small, more informal and friendly / cozy - and right in the heart of the down-town bustle (for better or worse). By comparison, this is a much bigger, more spacious and 'formal' hotel, with less soul (and less to do within walking distance) but with the most amazing view of the Shwedigon Pagoda. Our room was big, clean and comfortable, and that view alone made the view a good one. Lovely bed, and quiet room. Staff were a bit less friendly overall - I think the hotel's size makes the hotel more anonymous - but a good stay.
- Michael (6/5): Comfortable but requires improvement. - In a booked deluxe room, we had a strangely placed double bed which really should have split the bed rather than have them together; room 707 which did not oversee the city view which we requested. In fact it overlooked construction next door. Prior to booking in, I already had requested a higher floor room. This was not granted; when I enquired, they did not give a reason why it was not; didn't appear like full occupancy at the time. The hotel is also a distance away from most shops, so walking is not an option and we took a taxi to town; most costs around 2000-2500 with one costing us 3000. Cheap enough; there's a train station nearby which we did not use. I suggest you ask the staff to write down the address of hotel in the local language as taxi drivers often struggle to understand where the hotel is. The breakfast is fine. The staff need extensive training; they loiter a great deal which could also indicate reluctance to use their limited English. In all, the best feature of our room was the bathroom/toilet which was large by Myanmar standards. However, the toilet is placed too closely to the wall; you have to have skinny legs! There's a nicely equipped gym and a recreational room if you just need to hangout. The equipment in the gym is relatively new.
- Christophe (8/5): Overall good hotel for a good price - Poor wifi (as expected). Room lock did not work and had to be fixed.
- Mark (8/5): Myanmar Golden Land of PEOPLE - Great stay at the Hotel. This is Yangon so get used to it... Myanmar has a way to go with infrastructure and amenities. The people here are GOLD and deserve the utmost respect. The staff was very attentive and the Hotel has great value for the money. The buffet breakfast was the best we had in Myanmar. There is much to do within walking distance including the circular train around the city. Gym is well appointed, many other local place to eat nearby. BE adventurous and eat at a roadside stand... The food in Myanmar is better than Thailand, hahahaha...
- Vicki (8/5): Great value for money in Yangon - Friendly staff, huge room with balcony overlooking the city with the Shwedagon pagoda in the distance. Nice little touches like slippers and robes in the room... Breakfast was good - lots of variety, both Asian and western with an omelette and noodle soup to order counter as well. The only thing to note is that the hotel is a good walk from the downtown area (30-40 mins to 19th Street). They do provide a shuttle to be market, pagoda and downtown at specific times during the day but if you want to manage your own time be prepared for a stroll... Overall a great stay, highly recommended for the price!
- talby (8/5): Nice hotel good base - Good hotel a little out of centre, 2 to 3 dollar taxi ride to main temple, arrived early and staff let us have room early, buffet breakfast ok, black bean cafe good for quick fixes. Staff very helpful.
- Dominic (4/5): Ordinary breakfast, margarine was, poorly designed - TV too small and too far from bedroom Hotel was in poor location and too far from town in dark with lack of street lights
- Sovelle (6/5): Stay if you preferred good spead of breakfast - I supposed many will enjoy the good spread during breakfast. This hotel is equipped with gym facility and pool table. Free shuttle bus was provided to Chinatown, Shwedagon Pagoda and Bogyoke market. When we were at Shwedagon Pagoda, we paid 8,000 kyats to enter the place. We were approached by a tour guide to show us around the temple and 10,000 kyats for the one hr tour. Sharing more on hotel stay, we were looking forward to use the kitchen as we booked the family room. To our dismayed, there is no stove. Water from the tap was yellowish. In addition, the signal for our WIFI was poor till we asked for help. I would have stay in Royal Khatter Hotel. We booked a triple room with so much comfort at a lower cost. Perhaps we are Asian (not from China), we did not have special priviledge*** from Grand United Hotel (Ahlone). Last but not least, I would like to praise the bell boy who took our luggage to our room. He is always smiling with a welcoming gesture. We did not capture his name but hope the management will give him the compliment.
- Ricardo (4/5): 2stars hotel not more than that... - This is a 2 star hotel. The food selection at breakfast need lots improvement. To have a different price menu at the restaurant (in US dollars ) and in the room (in Myanmar Kyat) are something the management need to get their act together. Service were terrible! The only good thing in this hotel is the gym and the saunas.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Treat regular customer with royality program. - Needs to regonize regular customer with royality program such as upgrade toom base on frequency of stays.
- Verified traveler (6/5): cheap hotel - Small room with no windows
