Puerto Princesa Hotels with Swimming Pools

We are a family of 5 and booked two rooms. The rooms were very spacious with nice balconies overlooking the pool. The breakfast was excellent, the pool and beach activities were fun. They even had a fun game room for the kids. Not too far from the airport and transportation to and from the airport was included. The only negative was the construction noise.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Astoria, Palawan. There are many amenities in the holel to help you unwind and feel comfortable. If you reserved this hotel, you will have free access to the hotel's private aqua park, bikes, golf court, paddle boards, kayaks and multiple open pools. The complimentary boat ride to the open see sand island was truly remarkable. There are lots of restaurants and bars offering different types of food. In my view, the most valuable resource is local staff. We felt at home and were eager to return because they were all such wonderful hosts. Many gratitude to the Astoria crew for making wonderful memories.

My stay here was okay. The location could be better, need 100-150 trike ride to get to stores, restaurants, etc instead of anything being in walking distance. Disappointing a place this big didn't offer food or dining. Probably the best part is the friendly staff at the front, ready and willing to help with anything and check on your well-being. And they do laundry at reasonable rates. The room bring advertised as ”pool view” was a bit misleading. It's just facing a bunch of plants, shrubs and trees and behind all that is the pool. I cannot overstate this. The key is WAY too big. It's cartoonishly, inconveniently, ridiculously oversized. Hard to carry, hold, even use in the door if your hands are full. There's absolutely no reason for it to be this big. They say it's so people don't lose it but they ask you to leave the key with them when you leave anyways so...?? Y'all need to change that lol TLDR Friendly staff, freakishly humongous annoying key

Really enjoyed our stay at Costa. The staff were friendly and helpful. They helped to organize all tours and excursions as well as transport into town. Hotel offers airport shuttle every hour on the hour. Pool was great with an amazing bar. Overall great stay for a couple days when touring Puerto Princesa

It’s got a beautiful pool and reception area. Outside it looks nice. The state of the rooms inside was a little disappointing. Quite old. Unkempt if i may. the wallpapers are slightly peeling at the edges, it’s stuffy and really can use some renovation work. The staff is nice and friendly and the restaurant makes good food. Even though the dial code wasn’t working and i had to call reception everytime i wanted to order.

The place is very relaxing ,the most I like is my room is infront of the swimming pool..which I can see my children easily while their are swimming..the staff are nice,and the location is not too far from the airport

The room was clean, comfortable, and conveniently located near the mall and restaurants, which made our stay more enjoyable. The WiFi was fast and reliable, a big plus for anyone who needs to stay connected. However, there was no access to cold drinking water, only room temperature, and the two complimentary bottles provided were insufficient. While you can request more, the service can be slow at times, which is inconvenient when you need water quickly. A cold water dispenser or more readily available bottles would greatly improve the experience.

This place is fantastic! Location-wise, it’s really great. It’s very near the city’s commercial establishments and great restaurants - 5-minute drive on average. It’s also near the airport. The neighborhood in which it is in is very quiet and peaceful. So if you want a place that’s very accessible but still in a quiet location, this hotel is for you. I also would like to commend the staff - they’re all very warm and friendly. They were very accommodating and gladly answered all our questions about our travel. This hotel has a resort vibe so you really get to relax. It has great amenities, a lovely pool, and a relaxing main reception hall with a billiard table and comfy couches. It also has an in-house restaurant which is great for those who don’t want to go out to dine. Our room was very clean, cozy and surprisingly large for its price. We would definitely book this place again when we visit Puerto Princesa in the future. Definitely worth the price! 🫶

I had an amazing stay at Panja Resort Palawan. The views from the hotel are simply breathtaking, offering a serene and picturesque environment that made my stay incredibly relaxing. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-maintained, providing a comfortable retreat after a day of exploring. The hotel environment was perfect, with lush greenery and a tranquil atmosphere that added to the overall charm of the place. The pool area was fantastic, offering a great spot to unwind and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The service was outstanding, with the staff being attentive, friendly, and always ready to assist with a smile. Their professionalism and hospitality truly enhanced my experience. Overall, Panja Resort Palawan deserves a full 5 stars for its excellent amenities, stunning views, and exceptional service. I highly recommend this hotel to solo travelers looking for a peaceful and enjoyable getaway.

**Review of Microtel Hotel** We recently stayed at Microtel Hotel, booking two rooms, and unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. The rooms were outdated, with dim lighting that made it hard to see. The shower controls were rusted, and even the tissue holders showed significant wear. We were surprised to find that there’s no in-house restaurant, and the breakfast offered was not worth the price. Despite having a small number of guests, the breakfast options were limited to eggs, sausage, tocino, bread, rice, fruit slices, coffee, and juice. It took a long time for the staff to refill these items, and they weren’t even heated properly. To add to our frustration, my nephew, who is in grade 5, was charged as an adult because they don’t have a child rate. The towels were also outdated, which contributed to the overall feeling of neglect in terms of maintenance. On a positive note, the staff were welcoming and friendly, which was appreciated. The beach in front of the resort was beautiful, but it wasn't enough to make up for the lack of proper amenities and upkeep. Overall, we left feeling that Microtel Hotel needs significant improvements to meet basic hospitality standards.
