Excellent Stay
Very nice hotel centrally located in Nyaungshwe. Although not a newer building, the hotel is well maintained. Plenty of hot water and good WiFi. Comfortable and quiet. The set breakfast is also good. Special mention goes out to the hotel staff, who are friendly and courteous. The young lady at the front desk is most helpful and gracious. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Had a nice stay
We were very happy about the check-in (it was very fast). The reception lady was very nice her english was pretty good she pays a lot of attention to our comfort especially when she knew that our daughter wasn’t feeling well, we appreciate a lot her gesture especially in this kind of remote city. We have been upgraded to a superior room but the hot water of the shower was hard to adjust the bathroom door couldn’t close. The hotel is super well located and very quiet street.

Great family hotel, rooms are nicely decorated and clean, location is very good. Staff goes the extra mile and more, always taking amazing care of visitors. Boat and car tours can be booked easily and at good price, same applies for bus tickets, etc. Can't recommend it enough - the only place we would consider in this town. Note: This was our second visit (first in 2017) and we were happy to see that everything is still as good as we remember it from before.

The hotel staff was excellent on all counts. Only drawbacks were no television and water system which made the sound of Darth Vader and when in the shower the water would pulsate between hot and cold; and the breakfast choice (3) never varied which only mattered for us since we stayed for several days.

Make sure you do not stay in room 110 as it is next to a pump with a beeping noise that goes on 24x7.

Friendly staff, good location and comfy bed
Golden empress is a good choice for tight budget travellers, good amenities and comfy bed. Location is close to the Main Street just 5-8 mins walking, it is very close to JJ express bus stop just 500metre away, easy to access for bus travellers. Breakfast is good, we were up to check out at 6am and it was 30 mins apart from breakfast time but the staff still served us earlier, super friendly.

Very basic hotel with friendly staff
The hotel is very basic. The staff was helpful but very young and inexperienced. The hotel was more suitable as a back packet accommodation.

They treat you like family
The Golden Empress was the best hotel of my stay in Myanmar. The room was very comfortable - nice bathroom, no mosquitoes, comfy bed, very clean, and very quiet. The breakfast was also quite nice, and they keep of stock of bottled water that you are free to access at any time. The best feature, however, was the extended family who runs it. They were the sweetest and most accommodating innkeepers I have ever encountered. I had to extend my stay due to becoming ill (not the hotel's fault), and the receptionist, Thandar, took care of everything for me from booking a flight when it became obvious that I couldn't take the bus, to contacting my other hotel, to providing food, water, and medicine. This is definitely the kind of family-run establishment you want to support in Myanmar.
