I like that Waterfront Hotel because they offer Free shuttle pick up. The Staff were very punctual- they are there to pick you up as soon as you get out of baggage claim area . I am glad to see the smiling faces of Joshua and Willy - who were assigned on our shuttle pick up. Very polite staff. The front desk staff were very lovely- thank you ladies for a warm welcome and smiling faces. I highly recommended this place for the location , staff and food. Their breakfast Buffet was worth it. I Travel for pleasure and vacation. Thank you Waterfront staff. ❤️❤️❤️

Located at the heart of the city”

Hotel Nicanor is very accessible to key establishments and food hubs in Dumaguete City - only a stone's throw to the Dumaguete Boulevard, San Rival Cakes and Pastries, Silliman University, and if you can walk farther, you can reach the Cathedral and the Belfry next to it. The room is spacious and can accommodate 6 persons at most and is good for sleepovers; however, if you are looking for a hotel with various amenities, better book with hotels outside of the city proper.

I love this place”

Location is great! Restaurants are everywhere! Love the Howyang cuisine (next to Robinson's), Scooby's (in front of the hotel), the famous Sansrival (end of the street) and BPI bank next to the hotel. Also, there's a reasonably priced spa on the same street. It's 15-18 mins walk away to the pier going to Siquijor and Dapitan. The room is clean and organized. AC, TV and hot water are working well except for the wifi. The staffs are nice esp the security guard. Will definitely go back to this place.

Overall it was great!!!”

The place is highly recommended for staff,cleanliness and the room itself was spacious. You can really have a very relaxing shower too, the hot and cold shower works very well. However, I stayed at 3rd floor and I have to walk through stairs everytime since the elevator was not working. Though they have you a little discount but still, this needs to get fixed especially for seniors and those with special needs. Also, the cable is not working in my room.

This hotel is an older hotel and could use some improvements. The location is the best part. You walk out of the hotel and you are at the heart of Dumaguete. There is every kind of food around you and the ocean is a five minute walk away. The rooms are older but clean and the WiFi was very good. I will stay here on my next visit for sure.
