Reviewed By Iris's E

Location was great, and nice view. Hotel ambience is perfect for us. Breakfast options are also good. Employee from Housekeeping was very helpful. He is smiling and always willing to help. Room service was excellent. I would like to highlight the Burmese Lady, Miss Khine; as our waitress, she did a great job. Our food was served on time, drinks were also served without delayed. She has consistency of service levels at all time. Phine at the Spa was very kind, lovely and very helpful. With one exception (see below), the other receptionists are smile and lovely. At the spa, they have a lovely room that can be used for multiple purpose RED ALERT dealing with Maria. Sandrine & Ahmed from the restaurant. The receptionist named, Maria, had displayed poor level of service. I requested to give an alternative for swimming pool as it is out of service. 5 days before the check-in date, I called to the hotel for a Yoga space. She said she will get back to me but never did. She advised us to cancel the booking since she could not able to provide any solution to our needs. We are looking for indoor place for yoga practice due to the weather outside. She said there is a place next to the pool, that she can offered as a favor. I would say that is not even an option for the weather like that. She replied, we communicate with you the pool is close if you are not happy then you should have cancelled the booking. Our group all had booked for 5 rooms total on that day. I found the beautiful squad room next to the spa that we can practice yoga. However, Miss. Maria seems does not know about her own work place that how she can use hotel facility efficiently. The management seems to not care about the staffs' attitude. The two staffs from the restaurant are undoubtedly at the wrong place. They do not know how to serve the guest. No greetings, No sorry, No menu knowledge. But they proudly do have skills... to argue with the guest with confidence and give a grumpy face while rolling eyes to each of us. We had two tables at lunch time for us, we had ordered simple food but it was served after over an hour. The drinks was served after 20mins. The chicken 65 was cooked by expired coconut oil. we can all smell it. Chicken is like charcoal. Compared to the dinner service, lunch and breakfast was very poor. Miss. Khine was alone at the dinner service with so many guests around. Nothing was delayed. We all are happy. I feel frustrated and stressed by all the things that happened to us. There are so many great experiences at this hotel but people cannot just deliver these to the guest. Real shame.
