Meliá Yangon Room and Views
The premium room felt spacious and practical. A large bed, separate sitting area, minibar and well equipped bathroom made it comfortable for a longer stay. The main attraction was the outlook across Inya Lake and Yangon’s green skyline.
Street noise could sometimes be heard at night. Light sleepers should request a quiet room on a higher floor. Guests who prefer a smoke free room should also confirm that preference when booking.
Restaurants and Breakfast
The breakfast during our stay offered a broad mix of Asian and Western dishes. Meliá currently lists The Market for international all day dining, Olea for Mediterranean food and The Lantern for Asian cuisine. The official dining page also lists the Lobby Bar. Opening times can change, so check the hotel’s current restaurant page before planning a meal.
Facilities and The Level
The hotel remains connected to Myanmar Plaza and has a pool, gym, wellness facilities and more than 2,000 square metres of meeting space. The Level is Meliá’s premium service concept. Eligible room categories receive dedicated facilities and added services, although the exact benefits should be confirmed for the booked rate.
Service was a highlight of our visit. The team was gracious, attentive and clearly proud of the property.
