Inle Lake.
This was a great place to stay in the town of Inle Lake. Right next to the jetty where the boats depart from. The boats start about 6:00 a.m. and finish about 10:00 p.m. They are noisy but it didn’t bother us too much. Friendly staff and very obliging.The hotel organised a 6 hr boat trip for us so we didn’t have to navigate the sellers next to the jetty ($18 for 3 people for the day).

EXCELLENT!!
Tte location is one of the best. Beautiful view of the river, next to the boats, and quiet. Just around the corner there is a busy street with plenty of commerce, convenience stores, Restaurants and the market is about 5 blocks away. the room was large, very clean, good A/C, TV and Wifi. In all floors they have a small terrace as smoking area. The breakfast was a lot better than expected and you can also order some items a la carte. The best part was the service. They have a doorman and the entrance od the property, the staff always smiling and ready to help. They arrange boat trips and tours for a very competitive price and they even bought my bus ticket for my return to Mandalay. Considering the low price, it was an amazing deal. Highly recommended to everyone

Very good stay. Good location being right on the canal. Roof top terrace was amazing to watch activity on the canal and street below. Breakfast was good. Only negative was that the bedding and towels had a moth ball smell if you are sensitive to odours.

Amazing value
This hotel is amazing value, the large room is very clean and comfortable. The free WiFi was very good throughout the hotel. All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful particularly at reception when we arrived. A substantial breakfast is served in the rooftop restaurant with good views over the surrounding area. The hotel is on the river with many boats ready to take you on a tour of the lake and although they can be heard from 5-6am we didn't find this too intrusive. There isn't a lift so anyone with mobility issues may want to ask for a ground floor room. Would definitely stay here again

Great Inle Choice!
Inle Star is a very good choice for the area. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and spacious. The hotel is located directly on the river, which is convenient for sight seeing, but can be noisy in the morning (boat engines start up around 7-7:30am). Breakfast is quite good, the rooftop area where it's served gives nice views. There are really good food and tour options in the area at reasonable prices. The wifi only works in the reception area has to be our only "complaint." We would still recommend Inle Star and definitely stay here again.

Riverside hotel
Our room overlooked the busy river, just where you take a long tail boat to see the lake. The boats are very noisy from the room but interesting to watch. They start up about 5:30 am and stop about 7: pm so it's not noisy overnight. Staff are a little hard to communicate with at times but they do try hard and are very pleasant. Just a short walk to restaurants and shops. Simple good breakfast on rooftop.

The hotel was in a fantastic location - right opposite the water. Room size was great, staff extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also very pleasant. The only negative was no refrigerator or mini bar in any of the rooms in the hotel, which is contrary to the listing.

川沿いにあるのでボートトリップに便利
早朝からボートのエンジン音が聞こえてくるのですがそれも風情の一つと大して気になりませんでした。 ヤンゴンから早朝着のバスで着いたのですが部屋に空きがあったので追加料金なしでそのままチェックインさせてくれました。カックー行きのタクシーの手配など細かいところまで英語で対応してくれたのでとても助かりました。ただ時間によって英語が苦手なスタッフの場合もあります。 朝食は屋上のダイニングエリアで金色に光るパゴダを眺めながら楽しめます。

God komfort, fllott service, bra lokasjon.
Utrolig serviceinnstilling fra de ansatte på dette hotellet, alle sammen, bare smil og hjelpsomhet. De arrangerte båttur for meg på Inle Lake og transport videre, ordnet billetter og transport til bussen. Når jeg skulle ut på Inle Lake med båt ventet den rett utenfor hotellet, når du sitter på balkongen til hotellet ser du rett ned/bort på den lille brygga der småbåtene legger til. Det kan være litt støy fra disse båtene tidlig på morgen og ellers litt på kvelden, så om du sover veldig lett kan det lønne seg å be om rom som ikke ligger helt ut mot kaia slik mitt gjorde. Rommet var sort nok for en, med helt grei skapplass, god, stor seng og helt ok bad. Badene i Asia er jo litt "dusj over doen", men det var helt ok trykk i dusjen og god temperatur. Lokasjon var ok for å nå de viktigste tingene og det var hyggelig nærområde siden hotellet ligger rett på elvekanten. Koselig å sitte på kvelden på felles balkong (de har en i hver etasje) og se ut på livet. Wifi fungerte greit, med mindre tilkobling innimellom, men ikke verre enn jeg forventet. Fikk sjekket mail og aviser etc.

Bien situé près du canal
Hotel bien situé, proche des restaurants et des embarcations pour visiter le lac. Personnel particulièrement sympathique et serviable, voire dévoué : on se sent comme des petits rois! Le déjeuner est très bien, avec en prime une vue magnifique (salle à manger sur la terrasse au 4e) sur la ville et le canal embrumés au matin. En fait, un seul hic : des boules à mites. Beaucoup de boules à mites, sous le lit, sous le sommier... La chambre avait une odeur chimique, on pensait qu'il s'agissait de peinture fraîche avant de réaliser qu'il y avait des dizaines de boules à mites sous le lit. Nous les avons enlevés mais même après trois jours, une petite odeur persistait dans la chambre. Pas de nausée grave, mais quand même très incommodant. Pour le reste, un très beau séjour.

Hotel bien placé et personnel aimable
Très bon séjour dans cet hotel. Tout le monde était très sympathique et aidant. La chambre était très grande et la salle de bain encore plus avec une baignoire en plus de la douche. Il y avait aussi un balcon donnant sur le canal d'où partent les bateaux pour le lac. L'emplacement est idéal pour la visite du lac. L'hôtel propose la journée en bateau privé pour 22000 kyats (nov 16). Finalement nous avions déjà négocié avec un homme à l'extérieur un prix légèrement inférieur mais à refaire je prendrai probablement via l'hôtel car leur sortie incluait le coucher de soleil donc elle était plus longue. Le 2e jour nous avons loué des vélos directement à l'hôtel (1500 kyats par personne). Je retournerai dans cet hotel avec plaisir. Very nice stay in this hotel. Everyone was very kind and helpful. The room was very big and so was the bathroom with even a bathtub. There was also a balcony overlooking the dock where the boats to the lake leave. It really is a very convenient location for the boat ride as the dock is judt in front of the hotel. We had arrange a boat tour with a man outside already but the hotel does sell the tour for 22000 kyats (as of nov 16). Next time I would rather book it thru the hotel as theirs include sunset so it must be slightly longer. On the second day we rented bikes from the hotel directly (1500 kyats per person). I would enjoy coming back for sure.

Not great, but ok!
The Hotel is well located, next to the Boat jetty although this means it can be a bit noisy during day time. Breakfast was good on a nice rooftop terrace. Room was ok. Bathroom was not the best and bit dirty. Dirty towels and linen were changed upon our request after arrival. But all towels and linen they have are worn out and far from beeing fresh and white. Overall a bit overprized.

Wie auch bei anderen Hotels dieser Preisanlage in Myanamr kann man nicht viel erwarten, vor allem im Vergleich zu anderen asiatischen Lämdern. Das Personal war top, das Zimmer veraltet, aber ok. Unbedingt ein Zimmer nach hinten verlangen, da sonst aufgrund des Bootsanlegers es viel zu laut ist. Das Früshtück ist definitiv sein Geld wert, WLAN quasi nicht existent.
