Great: staff and tours to the 4 ancient cities and Dee Dote waterfalls.
Beds are comfortable.
Rooftop lounge is beautiful and oversees Mandalay Palace.
Location is perfect for key attractions.
Not so great: no soap in the washrooms, frequent blackouts, dogs barking really loudly every night.

Comfy night / nice stay
Posted 30 Jul 2019 on HotelsThe staff was super welcoming upon my arrival and their English is amazing. I was really happy to see that my room looked just as pictured/advertised on the app. But most importantly i was happy that it was so CLEAN! The towels smelled like fresh laundry and I LOVED that. It can be a bit noisy at nights since they’re located on the Main Street but to be honest, I was so tired that I was able to fall asleep and sleep really well through the night because my mattress was soooo comfy. The showers are nice and hot and have great water pressure. Breakfast was mediocre tasting but for price of the stay it’s a really nice portion and great view from the deck where breakfast is served. If you want other options, there are local tea shops in close proximity. I’d def list this place on my recommendation list for friends traveling through Mandalay.

Super cheap for the amazing quality provided!!!

Pros: Good quality beds. Clean toilets. Powerful air-conditioning! Cheap & good. Lovely sincere service. Comfortable common areas to chill with other guests
Cons: I mentioned to them on day 1 that the fries I ordered weren't really crispy, and on day 2, the fries were crispy. #firstworldcomplaints
Location: Royal Palace, Goffee Coffee, The Best Spa (accurate name for this spa), "cai fun" food store, MYST Shisha bar.
omg let's talk about the beds. I asked for a bottom bunk because I hate climbing ladders, but these beds were designed in such a way that was so stable, it didnt matter if my roommate and I didn't sleep/wake around the same time. climbing in and out of bed didn't disturb either of us. AND THE MATTRESS + PILLOWS + BLANKET + TOWEL were so comfortable and of great quality.
The aircon turns on and off in the day because of power shortages, but that's an issue that the country has, not this hostel. at night, the aircon keeps running and you go to sleep / wake up in a delightfully cool room.
The staff speak both Burmese and perfect English. They are always friendly and willing to chat about my day (and I like the conversation since i'm a solo traveller!). They'll go the extra mile to help you book airport shuttles / tuktuk taxis / drivers for daytrips in Burmese, or they'll draw you a map of local food stalls that aren't even on google maps, if you want a more authentic/less touristy experience. GREAT LOCATION, there are shops/coffee/food/massage/spas nearby!
The air-con lounge & rooftop bar are also great places to chill & I had a great time getting to know other guests. That's truly the sign of a great hostel - being able to connect people! I enjoyed my stay at Mansions Hostel immensely and would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone and everyone. if you're going to mandalay, stay here. there's literally nothing i regret or can complain about my stay.

Mysigt ställe, trevlig och hjälpsam personal! Frukost varje dag på taket, dock nästan likadan frukost varje dag, men det är okej om man är där någon enstaka natt. Sovrummen är bra, sängar är bra men luckorna som man ska kunna låsa funkar inte alltid. Några är rentav trasiga. Över lag nöjd!
Och om man inte vill bli väckt av musiken som spelas varke dag på andra sidan floden så är det bra att ha med öronproppar!

文句なしです!チェックアウト後、夜行バスまでに時間があって、シャワーを浴びさせて欲しいと伝えたところ、快く快諾してくれ、しかもバスタオルまで貸してくれました。

The hostel is well located, in front of the Royal Palace Square, very good views from the top. It has good amenities at the bathrooms. Tap water is available for free. The breakfast is very good, fruit, jelly, eggs and toast and change every day.
