Travelers Reviews of Bicol Hotels

The Marison Hotel
9.1/562 Reviews
The hotel itself is located close to the city and the mall. It’s clean and the most of the staff were accomodating. The rooms were clean and smelled good. Food served in the two restaurants in the lobby and on the roofdeck were great! Things I didn’t really like: Power outages: I understand that there was a 12-hour blackout happening in the city and that the power supplier is a total mess. But a hotel of this caliber should have automatic backup generators that need to fire up as soon as there are power outages from the grid which should make the power outage unnoticeable. All throughout the night, there were at least 8 or 9 times that the power went on and off in quick succession in a span of an hour. I needed to get up several times to turn on the air conditioning system every time that there was a power outage. Pillows: It was a little too firm for me. Laying on it positioned my head in an uncomfortable way unlike softer pillows or memory foam pillows which are more comfortable. The pillows also retained heat, which also added to the discomfort. I suggest investing in better quality ones considering the cost of the hotel (memory foam pillows and/or cooling pillow). I ended up sleeping with no pillow under my head, which was ok since the mattress has a good balance of firm and soft. Shower: This may be a maintenance issue. The shower drain in my room (257) weren’t draining water well. It was probably clogged with hair or other foreign objects. The water filled the floor quickly which made it overflow into the room. Needed to use the towel to wipe off the puddle. Also, the hotel maintenance staff needs to fix the water pressure. It was too low and the shower head need maintenance since some of the holes are already probably clogged with mineral deposits. One of the staff members in the Le Sans Cafe: I didn’t remember her name but she had this vibe that didn’t sit right with me. She was smiling to other customers but when I tried interacting with her to order food or ask for water, her mood seemed to change from welcoming to unwelcoming. It seemed like she didn’t want me in the restaurant to the point that I felt uncomfortable and felt afraid to get her attention. I had to wait for the other waitress/waiters to come by my table to ask for something. The other staff members were okay. They were smiling as they took my order and seemed genuine that they wanted me to be there. Check out process: it took a little too long for the room check to finish upon my check out. Needed to wait 20 minutes in the lobby until they called my attention to tell me I’m free to go. Other hotels I’ve booked took less than 5 minutes and some didn’t even have to do a room check. One staff member that had a RBF and the slow check out process are the reasons for my 3 star rating on service. The clogged drain and faulty shower heads and low water pressure plus the constant power outage are the reasons for my 3 star on ammenities. Hoping that the management or owner sees this so they can improve on an otherwise really nice hotel.

Villa Caceres Hotel

Good location. Disappointed for the service, a manager told us that it would not be possible to have a late check out without making efforts to find an alternative solution and barely looking at the PC.
RedDoorz near Mariners Legazpi
8/520 Reviews
It is a practical place to stay for singles or groups. It is a nice neighborhood, albeit a bit far from the city center. Own car will be good. But for its price, we all have to manage expectations. Thus, for this time Red Doorz again meets my mind.
The Oriental Legazpi
7.3/526 Reviews
Food, service, price, and transportation are not good, except for the swimming pool facing the volcano, is it worth it? See if you have high requirements for taking pictures. Add to that the restaurant is poorly produced and the price is too expensive.
Go Hotels Plus Naga
9.1/579 Reviews
The property seems like new, as evident in the towels, linens, and fixtures. I have tried several Go Hotels property, which are very basic.. so this is the my first “Plus” and I was pleasantly surprised of the interiors and the quality of linens, and even the amenities (e.g., toothbrush, slippers) which are lacking in the “basic” go hotels. The space seems bigger too. I just hated that they still carried the separate bathroom and shower thing.. it’s a feature of Go Hotels that I always hated. Nonetheless, the “Plus” went beyond my expectations. The breakfast was of good value to the amount we paid. But if you’re adding breakfast after you have booked the hotel, I don’t think it’s worth it coz it’ll be more expensive. Now, I don’t mind paying more to get the “Plus”
GV Hotel - Masbate
6.5/541 Reviews
The room is cleaned well organized, the room location is quiete discreet nice and good size. Ac is working great, a little noisy. Close to the port terminal it’s quality is just basic but the staff are really good and polite, I always use this hotel every time I need a room to travel. It’s easy to book online and cheaper compare to other hotel.
Hotel St. Ellis
7.7/548 Reviews
The service was good as always nice friendly staff the one thing that needs to change is the toaster at breakfast to put it bluntly it's fucked needs throwing in the bin and the purchase of a new faster one takes up to half an hour to fo one slice
The Avenue Plaza Hotel
9/556 Reviews
Nice gym and nice pool. Service of the staff was pretty good and cordial. However, we did not have a hot water after the brownout. We were told to wait for 30 mins. to an hour after the electricity came back. We waited 2 hours with no hot water. The shower bath tub is not safe at all. It was too high and dangerous. There’s no anti-slip and that makes it even dangerous. Another is, there’s no electrical outlet on the left side of the bed that makes it hard to charge the phone. Also, I requested a box of tissue paper and I received 2 toilet papers. I was informed they don’t provide tissue paper. Of all the hotels we stayed this is the most expensive, but can’t provide tissue paper. We’ll try UMA next time.
Summit Hotel Naga
9.1/553 Reviews
It has potential, but there were a few kinks. Like when we entered the first room we were assigned, the tv was on, the hand towel had lipstick stains and there was a shopping cart next to the bed - my conclusion is the room may have alrwdy been assigned or the oreviosu occupants have not checked out yet. Also, the next room we got didn't close properly and we jus realized that it was still open when we got back. The good news is, nothing was lost so I am left with faith on the honesty of Bicolanos. The safe was locked though so we weren't able to use it. When we went for dinner, almost all the items we wanted to try weren't available. Otherwise, it was still a pleasant stay, value for money for it's convenience, room type and comfort.
