2-Star Hotels in Central Luzon, Philippines

"The location is excellent. Less than 1km to Plaza Mayor de Balanga. Close to cafes, food park, night market, and other fast food chains. You can ride a tricycle as soon as you get out of the vicinity. They're quick to respond with calls and online inquiries. The facilities and essentials supplied are almost like those you'd expect in a hotel. The shared bathroom is not a downside as I expected initially. They are actually well-maintained and comfortable to use. The front desk almost has everything you might need in any situation: medicine, alcoholic drinks, games, trash bags, paper cups, etc. There's a water dispenser, too, to fill up water containers. The free breakfast is very much appreciated. It was already prepared as early as 6:30 AM, and you can choose to take them out. The food is nice, too. Well recommended for solo travelers or friends who are staying for a few days in Bataan."

"It was worth travelling here! The place is great, very serene, not crowded. The Manager and the staff are friendly and attentive to our needs. Aside from the beach, you have other fun stuff to do here, like dragon boat ride, volleyball in the sand, table tennis, karaoke at the bar. The room is spacious and clean, they got fresh and crisp bedding. Food orders in their restaurant are good, served on their dining tables beach front which added to a more enjoyable experience. This place is truly recommendable 👌🏻"

"We had an amazing stay with my family. The hotel was very clean and peaceful. The staff were very polite and helpful. The kids enjoyed our stay so much! Thank you for the great service. We will surely book again. Highly reccomended! 🥰"

"Good day, I'll write my experience nung nag check in ako.. hmmmm so good naman. Everything is okay but I have a two (2) concerned hehe. 😅 1.) Ahm pagka may foods na kasama sa booking maybe lagyan nyo ng toothpick yung order na foods lalo na Pag meets 🥴🥴 yun lang HAHAHAHA. Second; pagka package ba kukunin na booking with free food, tapos yung food late na na deliver consider ba yun na free din?? Kasi nga po yung package na kinuha ko is may kasamang free food so, consider din ba na mababawasan yung amount dun sa package na bino-book ko?? 🤔🤔 Kanina kasi kinuha ko yung free meal ko and 8:40am ata yun nung pumunta ako sa front desk para kunin ko yung meal ko then , nag antay ako tapos ayun umabot yung Oras ng 10am yung Pag aantay ko hehe 🤦 then yung naka lagay sa Catalog is before 10mins dapat andyan na yung food if hindi? It's consider a FREE?! Hmmmmm 🤔🤔 yun lang naman the rest is okay.. 👍👍 Salamat po, sa Sogo Tarlac Hotel, first time to check in po and first time to use online booking 😂🥴 medyo kabado ako kasi baka scam 😂😂 HAHAHAHAHA sa uulitin po, shout out pala sa mga stuff na babae, may crush ako dun 😂😂🤭 then si sir na nag assist Sakin, shout out din salamat sa Pag assist 👏👏 PS: Joel O. #Chek in (26,27,28) #ROOM 339"

"2nd time here. We checked in on Sunday, April 27, almost 2pm. Around 1:50ish. I went to the front desk. But the two women there didn’t attend to me right away because they were busy with something. That took around probably 3-5 minutes. Then a guy outside the front desk area asked me if I was checking in. I said yes, (obviously) that’s why I was there. He told me to just wait and that they’d call me.  We had a lot of stuff with us since we came all the way from Taguig and DRT. My partner told me to mention that we already had a reservation. So after a few minutes, I approached again. The girl said, “Ay, meron na po pala kayong reservation, ma’am,” and then she took my name. Shouldn’t she have asked me that from the start? Instead of just assuming I was a walk-in and ignoring me at first. It felt like I was the one who should be shy to talk to them because they seemed so busy.  Anyway, fast forward, the key card was sorted and we were heading up. But here’s the worst part: From the elevator all the way to the hallway on the 3rd floor, it reeked of cigarette smoke. The smell was so strong and nauseating. 😣  The room itself was fine. Premium room. Had a TV, the aircon was okay, and there were toiletries. I just wish the front desk staff would be more proactive in asking guests, and I really hope they can make the elevator smell better, no cigarette odor, because it’s really dizzying, especially for nonsmokers. It felt awful."

"We just lived nearby and needed a reliable internet connection due to the bad weather. Their room has it's own router and was able to use the ethernet. Was able to work remotely. The downside the next day it was already fully booked. This condotel will be my go to for my remote work. Thank you ❤️"

"The hotel can be easily navigated. Parking is just outside the hotel. Room was readily available and staff were nice. Can swim from 7am to 9pm. The bathroom feels cheap to be honest. No liquid soap, wall painting wasnt done nicely. Good option tho if you just want to rest and enjoy Angeles City."

"Our first room smelled so bad due to an issue with their piping. We had to transfer to another room because of this issue. Bathroom was ok, but only had half closure on their shower area -- water tends to spill over the toilet and sink area. Hotel seems like new but the doorknob in the bathroom kept falling off. Stairs going to the loft area was too steep, it made going up and down the stairs pretty difficult -- especially if you have your baggages with you. Food at the restaurant was so-so, i can say try other restaurants. Staff service and cleanliness are 100%!! totally welcoming and accommodating. Hands down to their staff."
