Red Canal Mandalay hotel's Pyae Phyo went out of his way to accommodate our stay: The gym was set up despite being under renovation during off-season, cappuccino was served right there, room was upgraded twice in order to compensate for some deficiencies that came with the hotel's renovation, massage was given complimentary, fruits were served repeatedly and all of this...

Even when the rest of the city is hot and dusty, you can be sure to feel comfortable in the Hotel by the Red Canal. The rooms at the front downstairs are really the nicest I think if you can get them as it's great to have the terrace to sit on. While the whole cosy hotel buildings and garden... More

The Hotel by the Red Canal in Mandalay is charming, with lovely architecture in a charming setting, and with very friendly and helpful staff. There were 4 issues which disappointed us in our stay: 1) despite having paid 1 week in advance for a suite, upon arrival we were placed in a very small (albeit charming room, containing essentially a...

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We had a back ground floor room with an outside shower. Probabaly would have enjoyed a front one more so but it was different with no outside light coming in & we slept well! I would certainly stay here again we dined in the Restaurant each night & breakfast was very good, complimentary afternoon... More

Incredible! We loved our stay and didn't know for three days that we left our wallet, cash and wedding ring in the room safe. The owner/GM tracked us down in Bagan through many phone calls and had everything we lost ready for pickup in Yangon before our departure. We could not be more thankful for the hard efforts. Thank you... More

A lovely, small hotel, and certainly the one I would return to in Mandalay. The staff are really trying to do their best to make you feel welcome. The free evening cocktails are a nice gesture, as is the free tea and coffee in the afternoon, the wet towel on arrival and the fruit in the room. House keeping was... More

We stayed as a couple 12 nights in Myanmar in 5 star hotels except for 4 star The Red Canal . In all honesty the quality of service and the friendly atmosphere was unrivalled here. We had a Chin suite on the ground floor looking across the garden to the swimming pool. Additionally the room was spotlessly clean ,attractively furnished... More

We stayed here in mid- April .Mandalay was very hot and the Red Canal was always pleasant to return to.It is a compact smallish hotel in a handy location with good rooms and a very obliging staff.Unfortunately the pool was closed for maintenance while we were there which was a disappointment.We also had to move rooms due to renovation during...

After the very slow transfer from the airport located in the middle of nowhere to the hotel it was great to be welcomed with a nice cold towel and a welcome drink! The hotel staff always had a smile throughout the stay! The pool was great and had sufficient seating and at sunset there were free cocktails and little nibbles!... More
