The hotel is conveniently located next to Mandalay palace, just one block away from the Air Asia bus stop. the rooms are comfortable and clean, with suitable space. the staff is friendly and helpful, offering assistance in arranging day tours and transportation. the breakfast is tasty, with a small buffet option. the hotel also provides early check-in when available, allowing travelers to rest after a long journey.
The air freshener in the toilet has a strong and annoying smell that can be felt in the room for a few hours.

Had a really enjoyable stay in this gorgeous hotel. the staff were professional. - the location was strategic next to the central mosque. - the property was next to the shopping street and the city walls. - the hotel was near Myanmar by far. - Went to Bbb Bar And Restaurant for a drink or two, set around a 10-15 minutes walk from the hotel.

The WiFi connection can be quite hectic and unreliable at times.

During my recent stay at a hotel in Mandalay, I had the pleasure of experiencing exceptional service from the staff. When I arrived, they promptly arranged for a driver, U Soe Gyi, who turned out to be one of the best guides I've ever had. The location of the hotel, just across from the Royal Palace, was a major plus. Additionally, the hotel was accommodating when I needed to change my reservation due to a canceled boat trip, and they didn't charge me for the extra night. The breakfast offered was delicious, and overall, I highly recommend this hotel.

My husband and I had a fantastic stay at Hotel Sahara for three nights. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and went above and beyond to assist us when my husband fell ill. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and the room, although on the smaller side, had a wardrobe and drawers for added convenience. The central location was ideal, and we were able to rent bicycles and motorcycles from the friendly staff. They even let us return the bike after the staff member finished his shift – such great service!

We had a wonderful stay at Sahara! the staff were extremely nice and accommodating. They even allowed us to check in at 4 am without any extra charge. the room was clean and comfortable, with a cozy bed, hot water, and a fridge. the hotel provided a delicious breakfast buffet with a variety of dishes that changed daily. the location was convenient, near the royal palace, and the staff arranged a car with a driver for us to explore Mandalay at a reasonable price. They also surprised my husband with a birthday cake and singing.
Nothing that we didn't like. 👍.
