Hotels met Pools in Cordillera Administrative Region, Philippines

"Pluspunten: De locatie is goed; er zijn supermarkten en restaurants beneden, en de restaurants kunnen maaltijden op de kamer bezorgen (ik weet niet zeker of alle restaurants dat kunnen). Het ontbijtbuffet is redelijk. Minpunten: De lobby was altijd druk; ik weet niet of het restaurantgasten waren die stonden te wachten om te eten of iets anders. Er stonden veel personeelsleden bij de ingang, maar ze waren allemaal aan het kletsen. Op de dag van aankomst, nadat ik mijn auto had geparkeerd en mijn koffer had gedragen, vroeg geen enkel personeelslid of ik wilde inchecken. Ik sloot me domweg aan bij de rij, om er vervolgens achter te komen dat het was om te betalen voor een maaltijd in het restaurant. Er was geen drinkwater op de kamer. De telefoon op de kamer had een ”0”. De receptie is 24 uur per dag geopend, maar tijdens mijn verblijf van drie dagen en twee nachten heeft niemand ook maar één keer opgenomen. Toen ik die avond wegging, vroeg ik een personeelslid in de lobby om drinkwater en handdoeken, maar er was niets geregeld toen ik terugkwam! Parkeren is gratis voor gasten; je krijgt een bonnetje, maar je moet het elke keer laten zien als je het hotel in- of uitrijdt. Waarom kunnen ze de kentekennummers van de gasten niet noteren voor een betere herkenning? Andere hotels/pensions waar ik in Baguio heb verbleven, hadden dit probleem niet. Bovendien parkeerden gasten (vermoedelijk restaurantgasten) en andere gasten allemaal op dezelfde parkeerplaats, waardoor er geen parkeerplekken meer over waren voor gasten. Ik vroeg de parkeerwachter of de lift in de parkeergarage de lobby kon bereiken, en er werd me verteld dat ik de trap moest nemen. Voor de schoonmaak van de kamer moet een bordje worden opgehangen; anders wordt de kamer niet schoongemaakt. Maar het bordje zat in de kledingkast."

"The staff are all nice and friendly as they allowed us to leave our belongings on the reception area since we arrived early as the check in time is 2pm. They also allowed us to leave our bags even after our check in at 12 nn because we still roam around Baguio and left at night. The room service is also kind of good as we manage to get a help in setting up the hot shower. The room is also clean and worthy of the price you paid since we did not stay much at the hotel as we most the time outside while the location is kind of far from Burnham park but it is just near the La trinidad benguet and few blocks aways from Bell church which is also a great place to visit. The only issue we had is the service water as it seems to have an after taste and the breakfast that did not manage to finish because it also has a aftertaste. Overall the stay is good."

"This hotel has some good points: 1. Great buffet bfast with a variety of food selections. I like their dried fish, omelette, langgonisa, coffee, breads, fruits. But noticed they did not serve bananas. Staff looks attentive to the needs of guests. 2. Have greats restos and shops nearby. Also near the CJH Conference area. 3. Has ample parking and nice garden plus heated pool. However this hotel also needs improvement on the following areas: 1. Front desk looks like they are not coordinated. Made separate booking for three nights via Agoda and Trip.com and informed the hotel about this arrangement. However, after our first night, front desk asked us if we are extending our stay. Worst, they deactivated our key cards so we have to go down again to have them activated again which caused some inconvenience. 2. Toilet has a foul odor so called housekeeping who took some time to attend to us. They told us what to do to avoid the foul smell but some unpleasant smell still remained so reported this to the team leader who sent their engineering to check. The hotel staff told us they will return but never did. So problem was not solved. 3. Requested for late checkout since our trip back to Manila was still at 2pm. However, front desk cannot commit and said will require approval. We followed up and got no positive feedback. Called team leader and made complaints about issues 1-3 and had our request accepted. 4. Very difficult to book a taxi or grab and the guards said because of too many guests or tourists. But it’s a pity that such an expensive hotel also has no shuttles service. We booked this hotel because it’s near the conference area but disappointed because we felt we didn’t get the value and services we were expecting. Anyway, thanks to the great staff."

"Overall our stay was ok. But i would not recommend it for guests planning for a staycation . Pros: ●Rooms are big and shower area is spacious, and water pressure for showers, bidet, and faucet are strong. ● Breakfast buffet is good ●Hotel Staffs are friendly and approachable. ●View is nice Cons: ●Although the hotel is relatively new, the amenities appear poorly maintained.” Specially for the Pool area/Gym Area - Poor ventilation has caused the area to smell damp and moldy. ●8th floor, place is not very well lit, especially at night.” ●Pool hours is not consistent with what is posted online. Suggestions: Timely repairs are necessary to maintain guest safety and provide a relaxing stay."

"We recently stayed at this hotel, and overall, it was a good experience. The hotel itself is clean and well-maintained, with friendly and helpful staff who made our stay pleasant. The room was also clean and comfortable, especially the bathroom it was spotless, with no signs of prior use or any foul smells. However, the lack of an exhaust fan meant that any odors stayed trapped inside. Additionally, the room had no windows that could be opened for fresh air circulation. While there was an air conditioner, it still felt like the air wasn’t circulating well. Breakfast was just okay nothing special. The selection was quite limited, so you’re left with only what’s available. Compared to Elizabeth Hotel, which is more affordable and offers a more appetizing breakfast buffet with a wider variety, this was a bit of a letdown. As for amenities, the hotel offers a jacuzzi and a heated pool, which is great in theory. However, their location in the middle of a restaurant makes it awkward to use since you’ll likely have an audience while swimming. We also tried the Japanese restaurant on the mezzanine level. The food was good and affordable, but the sashimi was cut too thick about an inch which made it difficult to eat. Despite these minor inconveniences, I highly recommend this hotel for its exceptional cleanliness. If cleanliness is a top priority for you, this hotel is a great choice!"
