Top hotels in Yangon Downtown
Pan Pacific Yangon
Got a upgrade and was blown away by their upgraded room. It was great and I will go for it the next time. Front desk and other staff service has been attentive and service with smile. Bar was nice during happy hour 1-for-1 drinks but their bar food was really bad.
