When we booked this hotel for a decent price, and we saw the 3 star rating, we were not expecting a brilliant night. We stayed over new years eve 2015/2016. Mandalay was fun, a lot of fun, the highlight of our trip. And the hotel was just as impressive.
The name is a little uninspiring, and in the UK, M3 is the name of a major highway, however I digress. The hotel stay was brilliant from start to finish. We were upgraded to a better room on check-in, which was lovely. Very clean, and in good condition, much better than the 3star billing. Air con worked well, bathroom was nice, room was well maintained, and tastefully decorated, and the staff couldn't help enough, so helpful. Breakfast was brilliant and very tasty.
My wife had a thai massage at the hotel, which was very good, and value for money.
