Traveling to Philippines? Find Zamboanga City hotels

This is one of the newest hotel in Zamboanga. The hotel lobby is big. The hotel looks posh for the affordable price that I paid. Wifi connection is good even inside the rooms. The hotel cafe is still not yet open but because it is located at the heart of the city, when u step out of the hotel there is Jollibee and Mcdo. Its very convenient. Staffs are friendly and helpful. I just happened to pass by the area when I stumbled upon this hotel. The location is quite good and is in the main downtown area of Zamboanga. The wide space in the lobby made me and my companion feel relaxed. Upon entering our room, again we were quite surprised because of the spacious area and the bed was very comfortable, we were able to fully rest after a tiring day. You won’t feel cramped staying in this hotel. With the price point, I can really say I felt the value for my money. I feel very satisfied and would come back soon.

I only stayed for a night and so far my experience was great. I managed to check in early and the staff were helpful. My only concern was that the hotel transport was not availble till 5am. I booked for the hotel transport to airport and I woke up early andwas ready at 4:30am as my flight was at 6am. I just think that 5am is a mad rush seeing that thr zamboanga city airport is chaotic and small. Maybe they can adjust their tranport timing to allow clients a room to breath. Other than that, hotel staff and room were awesome.

This hotel is very conveniently located in the city center of Zamboanga City. It is clean and comfortable! The staff are very courteous and friendly! They were kind enough to let us have an extra bed without charge. The negative thing is that the aircon in our room is very noisy. I had a look and found that it lacks regular servicing. The filter is clogged with dust! The other thing is that its shower head is fixed too high and the water patent cannot be adjusted to our preference as it is fixed. Another drawback is that they don't provide you with hotwater/coffee/tea making facilities. If you have a baby travelling with you, you'll have to request them to provide one which took a long time.

It was our first time in the city and we were lucky to have reserved a room in this property. PROS - near the airport, shopping areas and points of interests - value for money - great and helpful staff - water pressure is high - spacious cabinets - lots of power outlet CONS - no cable - small bathroom - no fridge - breakfast not available if booked via Agoda - pillows are old and flat - daily wifi log in with new pw and everytime it detected

The hotel is OK for a provincial hotel. But the description on Agoda gives a false impression. Expectations are set above delivery so initial impressions are disappointing: * New Delux Room: Rooms all in an old building; new buildings in the photo are conference facilities. * 2 Double beds: Two SINGLE beds. The hotel insisted that double means the room is for two people – did not accept that single/double bed relates to the size of the bed itself. * Balcony/terrace: this is the outside corridor. It is not private. No views (blocked by other parts of the building).Noisy because kids run up and down banging on the doors. * Desk: No chair. A plastic chair was provided when I asked. * Coffee/tea maker: A kettle was provided. No cups. 2 cups provided when I asked. No tea or coffee. Housekeeping did not include washing or replacing the cups. * Kitchenware: No kitchenware. * Free wifi access: This is listed as a room feature - and is the ONLY reason I chose this hotel. THERE IS NO WIFI IN THE ROOMS. Coffee shop wifi might have been OK but the coffee shop was always in use for seminars. Fortunately, there are good Globe and Smart 3G signals so I used my cell phone as a hotspot. The Agoda description has a nice photo of the pool. But as far as i can see, none of the rooms overlook the pool. There were conferences and weddings every day (stayed 4 nights) which splilled over into the pool area and lobby so there was little chance for a quiet time by the pool. Nearly all the room look out onto the main road, which is noisy. The other rooms didn't seem to have windows that could be used. The top floor is better than the second floor. Now, having said all this, it is not bad for the money. It was fairly clean, beds were basic but comfortable, the delux room is quite large, hot water most of the time, aircon worked ...

we enjoyed the stay, we had business to do in zamboanga city. we were late to comeback and exceeded our check out time. we requested to overstay and the hotel agreed and only changed us Agoda rates. we discovered you need to book early as the hotel removes the sea view rooms even if not booked. the restaurant is way too pricey and they charge 10% over the amount. I ordered filet mignon but got beef tenderloin. we suggest eat elsewhere not in hotel. I am American and I have not seen a bathtub in over three years, that was a treat for me and a new adventure for my wife.

There are room for improvements like cleanliness of the bathroom (particularly shower area), leaks from shower division, the air con size for the family room was quite small (but they allowed us to leave it on so the room will be cold when we come back), and the noise from the Gym (but this was resolved immediately when we requested to be moved to the other wing opposite from the gym). Security is tight, which makes you feel secured. Polite staff which is the biggest factor. Will definitely stay there again on our next trip.

From the time I arrived at the airport, I thought I had a very special treatment. Miss Benita Feliciano was the one who facilitated my transportation going to and from the airport and made sure I was well taken care of. She even checked me in at the airport without me being in the airport yet when I left Zamboanga for Tawi-Tawi. So I really appreciate that. When I got to the resort, everyone was just nice. My assistant called the day before to make sure that my room was confirmed. When she told Miss Rose that I needed a good internet connection, they immediately transferred my reservation to Casita number 2. When I got there, I had the router for my own use inside the room. I had to work for a few hours in the evening of my stay so I really needed a good connection and they did not disappoint. I was able to work without any issues. The power went out twice during my stay - I guess this is an issue in Mindanao. But the resort is well equipped with a generator so power was never an issue. I left very early in the morning so I could not take the complimentary breakfast. They gave me a complimentary dinner instead. And did I forget to mention that my room was right in front of the beach? The food in the restaurant was also good and very affordable. One of the staff members who was on duty during the early morning accompanied me and talked with me until my airport transfer arrived.

We booked a 4 days 3 nights stay but we decided to move to a different hotel after 1 night of stay because upon checking in the room they said is still occupied(we called in to let them know that we are checking in early) we waited for like 1 hour at thier very small office. When we where ushered to our room we were told that the floor is still wet, so lo & behold it is literally wet all over😲. We notice that some of the locks are broken & there is a back door with no secure double locks attached to it. On the 1st & only night of our stay a group of guys knocked urging us to let them in (creepy). The next day from our tour we noticed that the aircon in our room was switched off (we purposely left it open because its so humid outside and so when we get back we dont need to adjust the temperature). Then when we are readying to check out, though I forgot to lock the door due to exhaustion a guy just literally barged in without knocking. Pros: breakfast served is good.

Overall, it was a very pleasant stay. Their policy of putting a 5 minute delay on the aircon start-up puzzles me though. This is probably applicable only if they are coming from a brownout and they want to stabilize the power first. Five minutes is simply too long to wait if you're coming from a tiring 2 hour plane trip. I also think that wi-fi insode the hotel room should be standard for a hotel that claims itself to be 2 stars.
