Hotel AKIMOMI

Beautiful atmosphere in Japanese style, clean rooms and affordable price. Breakfast was delicious and generous. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

The standard room we stayed was charged 40USD a night. Asides the front office staff’s friendliness, the room is awful. Even the complimentary things are not in standard. Cobwebs and dusts plus strong moldy smell comes out when I opened the fridge and cupboard. Bathroom is also moldy, socket from the bathroom is broken and even the soap dispenser is also broken. Felt like spending my money to sleep in an abandoned room. Totally not recommended.

Hope this place be quite and peaceful.
But, very noisy as of children playing loudly till 11:00PM. I called and complaint to reception but no action.
Rooms.
Corner suite room — enough space but old. Not soundproof, can hear everything outside.
No intercom in the room. The hotel phone didn't answer when I called to check out.
Staffs.
The front desk staffs are nice but they may be over workloaded.
Breakfast.
Terrible. Only a few menu to choose and no meat.
For my opinion, overpriced and not worth its price.

Located in quiet and peaceful locality not far from down town, 1.7 miles far from Kandawgyi. As soon as we entered the compound, we felt Japanese vibes. As the owner himself has lived in Japan as a professor in a Japan University for years, his hotel is influenced by Japanese culture and traditional architecture. All the buildings are based on Japanese tradition. Among the buildings, there is a grove with many trees which is natural and creates a cozy, cool and pleasant surrounding. We can relax in the tents of the garden and take photos by wearing Japanese traditional Kimono. The rooms are neat and tidy and they have necessary facilities. The foods served at the hotel are very fantastic and the hotel staff are kind, helpful and attentive to the customers. The hospitality of the owner family of the hotel makes us feel warm and secured. This hotel is the only ASEAN Green Hotel Standard winner in Myanmar. May I strongly recommend to put up at this hotel when you are in Pyin Oo Lwin.

Even though the Wi-Fi is horrible expect for the reception and dining area, the rest of the hotel was great including the food which tasted good and at a good price while having lots of variety and different cuisines.
The rooms maybe small for some people but for me staying with my uncle and grandma was just the right size.
The service is great with kind staff, overall a very good hotel to stay in for a vacation/business trip.

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the wonderful experience during our stay at your hotel. From the warm welcome upon arrival to the exceptional service throughout our visit, every detail exceeded my expectations. Your team’s kindness, attentiveness, and professionalism made our stay truly memorable. I appreciate the comfort and hospitality provided, and I look forward to returning in the future. Thank you again for making our stay so enjoyable! ”

Great view, and an affordable price. The area is quiet, suitable for people who love nature. Best for morning walks or exercises. The staffs were friendly and the food tasted amazing. The rooms could improve a bit more. It was better a few years ago.

I really liked my time at Hotel Akimomi. It felt very Japanese, even though it's not in Japan. The room was clean and simple, like a traditional Japanese room. It was cozy and I slept very well.
The people who work there were very nice. They helped me with everything I needed.
The hotel had a nice garden and pretty. It made me feel calm. The food was good too. I tried some Japanese dishes and they tasted great.
Hotel Akimomi is a good place to stay. It's comfortable and peaceful. I would tell my friends to stay here if they want a taste of Japan.

I went to this hotel with my family on Christmas 2024. It was very peaceful in this hotel. There are many trees and the buildings makes me feel like I'm in Japan. The staffs were very kind to us and the food was also amazing. The breakfast was fantastic too. I recommend eating Shan Noodles there because it tasted really nice. The Japanese food tasted very authentic and my family also enjoyed their trip here.

Our stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful! The atmosphere was peaceful, with lush greenery all around, creating a serene and relaxing environment. The owner and his family went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable and memorable stay.
Being new to the area, we didn’t know much about the city, but they were incredibly helpful in arranging everything for us. They even connected us with their wonderful driver, who took us around and recommended must-visit places.
The staff were incredibly respectful, attentive, and always ready to assist with anything we needed. Their hospitality truly exceeded our expectations.
We had such a fabulous holiday and are already looking forward to returning to the city and staying here again. Thank you so much, Akikomi, for making our vacation so special!

We had a lovely time at Akimomi. The hotel is surrounded with beautiful garden and it was so peaceful to sit on a terrace and enjoy the view. People working there are very helpful and would do everything for us to have the best stay. The owner himself made us a proper Japanese breakfast which was absolutely fantastic and we felt so special. We'll be happy to come back when in POL.

Bad things —
We stayed at their “suite” over the holiday period. The suite room is actually no different from the normal room and overpriced. It has a boarded-up hallway that has no practical use. The bathroom is small, dark and dirty! The rooms are NOT soundproofed at all; can hear everything. The food at the hotel is terrible, even at inflated prices. Bad Wi-Fi.
Good things —
Green environment with trees.
Front office staff is nice.
We wouldn’t stay there again.

This hotel badly need interior decorating. The hotel seriously needs to evaluate options for improving cleanliness for towel, bedsheet (offensive smell). There is a musty smell in our room. Wifi connection is very poor during our stay and no phone signal. Air conditioner, shower and toilet water spray is not working properly. The only thing I like this hotel is that the staffs were very courteous and respectful. Do not ever waste your money.

The drinks at the restaurant are EXPIRED and they just keep selling them.
We noticed after we had have them and when we told them about that they replied it was okay because it was 6 HOURS away from the exact EXPIRED DATE published on the can.
Zzzzz…. Gg.
