Awesome contemporary architecture”

My bestbud and I stayed at Astoria for one night during our Holy week stay in Boracay. The best thing about it was definitely the cosmopolitan and modern architecture. The reception had furniture that seem to take inspiration from the famous designer Cobonpue- a mix of indigenous materials and fine craftsmanship. The room that we stayed in had tones of teal and white impeccably laid out. It felt like a real hotel as it had a refrigerator, an oven, plates and utensils, a bath tub, expensive looking lamps and coordinated items. (Most resorts in Boracay don't have refrigerators and ovens). You can tell the difference of a hotel that hired an interior designer in its construction. WIth Astoria, you would love to keep going back to your room to savor the awesome design. The pool had these cool, modern looking sunbathing beds and hammocks. Though the pool was not that big, it was well maintained. The staff was efficient and attentive. In fact, they seemed to be a little too much. They were literally everywhere, looking after everything, as if the hotel had a big celebrity that needed top-class security. The breakfast buffet was generous. They had pancakes, waffles, fruits, salads, juices, omelettes, champorado (chocolate rice porridge), arroz caldo, rice and about 3-4 dishes/viands. I was definitely definitely pleased with our stay in Astoria. The main downside, though, is the steep pricing of the rooms. I wish they could lower it a bit. Also, for those who want a quiet time at night, they may hear some music at night during holy week, since there are lots of parties.

Excellent”

Staying in Astoria Boracay is so relaxing. Everything you need is all around the resort. Just a few steps going out the backside of the resort you will have to see the very awesome seashore of Boracays's Station 1 beach, may it be high tide or low tide. While traversing the seashore, one would find a lot of restaurants and specialty shops in the area.the D Mall is also just a few steps away from the Astoria Boracay. Hair braids and henna tattoos and even massage spas are not far from the resort. The breakfast buffet is so sumptuous and satisfying...if only we have not booked for our water activities, I swear I could have stayed and tasted everything in the breakfast buffet starting from 6AM till 10 AM. The staff are very friendly and courteous. It has been a hassle free journey coming in and going back to Caticlan Airport. Kudos to the staff of Astoria Boracay! Till we meet again soon. :)

Exceeding our expectations”

Astoria Boracay did a wonderful job of making our a stay a most enjoyable one. We arrived at 10.30 am which was 3.5 hours ahead of our agreed upon check in time. We were greeted with a wonderful welcome drink while talking to the staff at the front desk. I asked if it might be possible for us to get a room earlier than 2 pm our normal check in time.. The gentleman at the front desk told me he would see what he could do and asked my for my cell phone number so he could contact me when our room was ready. So we went to the cafe at Astoria and had lunch and enjoyed the beautiful view from the restaurant. While eating i received a text message our room was ready. This was 2.5 hours ahead of the expected time of 2 pm. When we went to the front desk to receive our room keys we were informed that our room had been upgraded to a superior room free of charge. I asked why and she said she had an unusually high number of guests requesting the standard room so we were the lucky ones. Fantastic!!!! I then asked if it would be possible to have a room near to the pool and on the ground floor. After a brief period of searching on her computer she said absolutely no problem one is available and you may have it. Day after day this hotel exceeded our expectations in customer care, cleanliness, attentiveness to detail, and amenities. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who is searching for a beachfront hotel in this price range. We also received on our arrival day a free fruit basket with some delicious fresh fruit. It was a very nice touch. I would go back again and stay at Astoria again.

Unplanned Trip”

It was an unplanned trip with our balikbayan BFF, I called Astoria Boracay if they can booked me and they recommend to check agoda for cheaper price, we got 1 Premier & 1 Luxury rm at a lower price than I expected. Our Experienced upon arrival was spectacular, we received a welcome drink and cupcake bibinka,Benedict a d Almira was very accommodating and very patient (we arrived early), Ben really assisted us very well, he informed us that there is an on-going brunch if we want to avail for P199(super sulit and yummy)while waiting for our room to be ready we were able to eat, rest and relax at their cozy dining area, take note that this hotel is a beach front hotel and located at station1. Crews from guard to cleaners (Dessa)are very polite and attentive, all crews from Dining area are super friendly. The room is neat and clean ,love the floor drain-no clogged. During Check-out, it was flawless, Benedict handled is very well, Super Thank's Ben, see you again on Nov.21st.

Great Hotel Service, Nice Hotel Room, Lovely Beach”

Astoria Boracay is a nicely designed resort. Apart from the facilities and the dining experience, their pricing is fair, even their buffet meals. The staff were all very kind and accomodating and they would always go out of their way to assist us which delights us. We have been back to this resort more than thrice and we find ourselves going back. Our biggest complaint is that the sports activities center is right outside the beachfront and it makes the resort's beachfront too crowded and noisy, its not very comfortable to relax and to sunbathe. Still, we can always walk far away from the crowds and still enjoy the beach. There's no gym or fitness center too. Also there was complimentary wifi but only for 1 gadget, you will have to pay for additional wifi use if you have more than 1 gadget. They have free drying service which was super great! Soon, they will have their own speedboat to transport their guests to and from the island.

The best boutique hotel of the stretch!”

boracay, itself, was fantastic and with astoria boracay, its the icing of the cake. beautifully designed hotel with a lovely swimming pool. located between station 1 and 2 gives you best of both worlds. head 'right' to the quieter station 1 to get a quiet tanning time and 'left' for beach activities and d'mall (central shopping area). breakfast was reasonably good and service was great but expect more 'time'. whats to rush when you're on a beach holiday. i'll return again!

high class hotel with a very good location”

it was my first time to stay in Astoria boracay and I have to say it was memorable. Upon check-in, welcome drinks were immediately given. Their pandan juice tasted really good. I wasnt able to check in my room at once because it was still early but they were efficient enough to call me once my room was available. The room did not disappoint. It was relatively spacious, with modern design, complete features, great bathroom with complete toiletries, complimentary flip flops, free wifi and more. The pool area is very modern with nice lounge chairs. Even the beach front area is clean with a number of lounge chairs as well. Buffet breakfast was okay. It did not really stand out but overall, it was filling. My overall rating for Astoria Boracay would be 9 out of 10. I got what I paid for.

" Friendly Staff and fast service"”

it was my first trip to boracay and i chose to stay at astoria because i have stayed a couple of times at astoria ortigas and the hotel has always lived up to my expectations especially when it comes to their fast service. on our day of arrival, one of the staff provided us with cold towels to clean our hands and was served with pandan juice that was so refreshing! on our second day, we were provided with beach towels on our island hopping tour and when my friend and i decided to swim on the pool, the hotel staff gave us new set of towels. drying clothes has not become a hassle because the service is provided for free and a after a few hours, our dried clothes were brought to our room. the only turn off i saw was that molds have begun to form at the bathroom tiles. i guess i'm just oc when it comes to using bathrooms but all in all, me and my friend has a pleasant stay and would definitely return soon at astoria!

perfect hotel in boracay!”

our stay in astoria boracay i should say is one of the best, we've been to boracay quite a few times and stayed in other hotels but this hotel really exceeded our expectations. we arrived late due to some delays in our travel, we were died tried with 3 young children in tow, but to our surprise instead of our regular deluxe room we were upgraded to a 2 queen sized deluxe with direct pool access, the room also has a lot of amenities, we have our own bath tub, nice toiletries selection, rubber slippers for us to keep, dvd player (you can rent dvds in thier front desk), magazines and all.. it will really make you feel at home! breakfast was also awesome, all staffs were ready to give you a smile and help anytime. we will surely come back to astoria!

Anniversary Trip - Boracay”

Given its location, hotel was very strategically positioned for all activities-Ariel's Point, Boracay Pub Crawl, Diving, Beach Activities as well as Souvenir shops. We had minimal inconveniences getting around. Hotel lived up to its 5 star service-food menu, room service, pool, staff and cleanliness were top notch. Priced competitively among hotels in same location and looked new. One of the selling point. We were given a free upgrade to a premium room since it was our anniversary. Celebrated wife's birthday and we got complimentary cake, impeccable service from the staff to arrange a surprise bouquet and party. Rooms are clean and well maintained throughout our stay. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay and will certainly return to Astoria should we go back to Boracay.

Super friendly staffs, Great beds and pillows..”

The staffs were superb. Room was nice. Bed was awesome with 3 pillows/each bed. But the room was small, so do not bring giant luggages. LCD, fridges, safety box, dvd player, wifi was weak and available for 1 gadget only. Bathroom was decorated greatly but the shower was not stabil. Great taste of breakfast, although the choice was not that much enough. 30 seconds walk from receptionist to the white powdery beach. The beach was crowded. The airport shuttle fare was epensive. Betterchoose between south west tour or island express tour. 15minutes walk to D' mall. Overall, it was a great stay and we could deal with all the weaknesses. I will come back to Boracay and just can't wait to see the smilling faces of Astoria.

Great Weekend at Astoria”

The hotel is located at Station 1 of Boracay Beacg which is a good area to swim with finer sands and with beautiful sailboats in the background for great pictures. Agoda's swimming pool is nice and colorful at night. The staff are courteous and very accomodating. There is a free service of having your swimsuits be dried in their drying machines and can be claimed after 3 hours. The food is good. The rooms are large and housekeeping are quick to clean room, usually after we took our breakfast the room is clean when we get back. You can avail of their pick-up and drop off at the aiport using a more comfortable mode of transporation using van and speedboat. The cost when we availed of this service going back to the airport is at Php860 each person. Overall, I would recommend Astoria as a good place to stay in Boracay. :)

Cozy property”

For those new to Boracay, the island is divided into several areas. Further out are the more secluded, less populated areas of the beach where a number of larger hotel properties are located. Towards the center of the white beach on the other hand are the restaurants and the bars and previously, only few well maintained hotels were located here. The Astoria is one of the relatively newer additions to this area and they offer a refreshing from the older, less cozy hotel options on this part of the beach. Personally, my preference is to stay in the area as I tend to go drinking at night and do not really appreciate the long walk to the more secluded area described above. Astoria combines the combination of location and a more luxurious hotel experience and I recommend this hotel because of this!

Great hotel with perfect service and location”

i stayed in the astoria boracay resort for 4 nights and can highly recommend the hotel! the service was perfect with friendly and attentive staff, the rooms were very big and perfectly clean with comfortable beds, a huge wardrobe, nice bathroom. the breakfast was delicious and the pool was great to relax after sunbathin on the beach. the hotel is conveniently located directly at the main beach promenade. overall we were very happy with the astoria boracay resort and can 100% recommend it! the only thing is missed was a gym.

One of those hotels which I would definitely stay at again”

Astoria is hands down one of the best beach front hotels in that area of Boracay. It is not cheap but not too expensive as well, I guess that's why all the rooms are booked days ahead. Rooms are great, spacious and I would suggest you get a pool access one as you would really enjoy that. The pool is great and has some beach beds half submerged in the shallow area as well as the ones with mattresses and improvised leaf-sun-umbrellas on the top. There is also a shallow kids pool interconnected with the big pool. Restaurant is good but being at the beachfront of that area of Boracay means you are minutes away from other great restaurants located along the beach path. Beach area has a dozen or so beach bed where they could serve you a cocktail or two, but you should also keep in mind that now along all the beach they have built a wall of bamboo net covered up by plastic transparent film, it was made to prevent sand swept by the wind inside the hotel area. At one moment it may be limiting your view but from another point you will quickly realize that it will give you some privacy from the beach hawkers and that's a good thing believe me. The other thing which I didn't like about the beach is that there is an armada of sail boats parked in a row there which limits your place to swim, and in the evening when lots of people come to take a ride on them you may find yourself maneuvering to avoid being hit by leaving - coming boats so it is better to get in water a bit further down the beach.

Astoria Boracay a good place to stay..”

Our stay at Astoria Boracay was a welcome surprise! We didn't really expect much but got more than what we expected from Astoria Boracay.. The location was very good, staff very accomodating and friendly, food served was great. The buffet dinner was well worth the money! you should try it! The rooms were spacious and very well designed. The modern theme of the hotel was very very nice, from the pool, rooms, dining area, everything in this hotel was great. You should come and try out this hotel.

Clean, comfortable, hospitable”

Other than the disappointing breakfast, everything else is perfect. Personally, I don't usually expect good breakfast anyway, so the rest are more important and Astoria Boracay got them all well and good. Airport transfer from Caticlan was smooth. Check-in was fast. Room was clean, spacious (spacious can be very subjective though), sufficiently equipped, and exactly as shown in photos. Love the big bathroom with amenities. The swimming pool is not big but beautiful especially with the changing lightings at night. Staff was polite and attentive. Here's a simple example. Astoria has a drying service where you call them to come to your room and pick up wet clothings for drying. I called for it on my last night in Astoria without reminding them that I am checking out first thing the next morning. Then came morning and before I needed to call them to return my clothings, a staff was at my doorstep with the stuff and he said they knew I was checking out in the morning to catch a flight so here are my stuff. Perfect isn't it?

Lovely hotel and great location”

Astoria Boracay is most probably one of the best hotels along white sand shore of Boracay! Just take a few steps from the hotel room and you'll experience Boracay's fine white sand. A choice of local and western menus are also available to the preference of the guests. Staff is friendly, very helpful. The highlight of hotel is certainly the swimming pool! In case we will come back to Boracay we will surely pick Astoria again.

Boracay Gold Crown Resort”

Generally, this is one of the best hotel in the Philippines that I have been to. Being in Boracay would probably mean for some as staying mostly outside the hotel but with Boracay Gold Crown, which I think will be changed to Astorias, you would definitely love staying inside the room. The double bedroom is so big that it can even accommodated 4 person with still enough space to move around. The design was so modern but very comfortable, as well as the bed. The bathroom was also great, however, we didn't have bathtub but some others rooms have. Very nice and clean. It might look old from the outside, like the hallways are not really well maintained but the room was so great that you couldn't ask for anything more. However, the food is not really that great. t needs for choices and variation. They should offer as part of the package buffet breakfast.

A real five star treatment for guests”

It is located near D Mall.. Very kind and accomodating staffs.. They gave us our room 1 hour earlier from check-in time.. The room is well designed, the ambiance of the hotel itself is very relaxing.. The swimming pool is one of the highlights of astoria boracay.. Wide choices in their breakfast buffet.. All in all, me and my fiance will definitely go back to astoria boracay..
