Clean, centrally located, price good ”
We liked the hotel and perfect location right near the pier and restaurants. Though no hot water, only warm due to solar power, which was fine because it's hot outside. What we didn't like was the town, it was like a city, expensive, and terrible food. Though we rented a motor bike and went to other parts of the island which were very nice and I would stay outside the town next time, highly recommend that option. not downtown el Nido. We went on an island tour which was nice, but many boats.

Nice location in the town of El Nido”
Location is very close to the beach, resto/bar and places in town. Staff was friendly, helpful and courteous. Free instant coffee 24hrs a day. Only negative comment was that the rooms needs some updating. If I will stay there again or recommend it, yes because of the location and bang for the money.

Worth what you pay”
The price is reasonable. I think it’s worth it. You are in the heart of Ël Nido. Walking distance to the harbour (boats to Caron and other destinations) and where all the island tours start. It’s very busy. A lot of bars and restaurants. A bit of crowd noise from the room but that didn’t bother me at all. Wifi was really good and free. The cheapest room is pretty small but the deluxe one is a nice size. Tv channels were pretty fuzzy. Massages right next door and another cheaper one a few stores down. A gym to work out at also very close. There weren’t too many hotels to chose from in this area. I’m happy I chose this one.

Very nice - except no hot water.”
Location and facility was great with the exception of no hot water and some lame excuse about the sunshine. You have electricy, you can heat the water.

Ok”
WiFi is so weak. Bedding and room has no hot water. Some rooms have no windows. All accommodations in Philippines are not good value. Staff was very helpful and kind. But overall on par with el nido.

Excellent Location ”
Great location in El Nido town. The street the hotel is located on has all sorts of shops, restaurants, bars and excursions plus it is the street behind the beach. The room itself was small but it did the job. Aircon was good. Don’t expect a really nice room but chose this place is location is most important to you.

Adequate accommodation, okay value, excellent WiFi”
We stayed in a deluxe room on the roof costing 2000php (booked in person). Pros; Good central location, Spacious, clean room, When we visited, WiFi was the best we found in El Nido - stable and 1Mbps download - enough to stream half decent video Rooftop has great large balcony space and a table/seating Cons; Shower on this floor is cold and had an issue that should have been fixed, Quite basic for the cost While the balcony has a good view of the sea, the view from the room was only the balcony

Above average”
Great location, close to everything, Bad location, close to nightlife noise. Hotel is NOT on the beach as it may appear on map. Inconsistent shower, water pressure and water temp, sometimes only cold water, sometimes hot. Bed is small and uncomfortable, with No blanket. Sheet looks stained. Junky TV with few channels and static (snow) picture. Must turn in room key every time you leave hotel. Ceiling fan makes screeching noise. staff is ok. Water is slightly stinky and yellow as others have mentioned which may or may-not be the fault of the hotel?

Great location if you want to explore EL Nido since it is close to the dock area.”
Close to the dock area of tour boats, close to restaurants and souvenir shops.Noisy neighbourhood, aircon not working properly, no food in this hotel. They need to clean specially the trash cans in the guests area.

Nothing special.”
Cold water in shower, and hardly any pressure. Charging possibilities were sockets high up on the wall, and difficult to reach. No backup power unit when electricity goes out, which can happen often.

Great option in the heart of El Nido”
i really enjoyed my 3-night stay with my friends at garnet hotel. the staff were extremely helpful in providing all our needs. palawan folk, i find, are a warm and kind tagalog people who care for their home by minding waste management and keeping the beauty of the place intact. the hotel is just across the row where the beach is, and to get to the beach you need to cross a small private alley which also doubles as a shower area for a nearby dive centre - which gets awkward when someone is soaping up and you have to pass through and excuse yourself. but all in all, this is a great place to stay, not seedy looking but very professional. the breakfast is served from a restaurant across the street with a fantastic view.... breakfast is so-so but the view makes it incredible. the hotel provides free wifi, fast enough to use for facebook and to skype. almost every establishment in el nido is wifi-enabled - a pleasant surprise considering no atm machines exist in this place! for those who do not want the connectivity and be secluded from it all, well, you can always not bring your gadgets and it will work out fine for you as well.

Great location and comfortable stay”
we had a by pleasant stay at garnet hotel! bebong and anne were very kind and helpful behind the counter, and the owner, heal, was very kind as well. the staff did whatever they could to help make our stay as comfortable as possible. the breakfast was right across the street at habibi, and was quite good. we would definitely recommend this hotel to any couple travelers. keep in mind that the electricity goes out in el nido from 6am to 2pm, so you will wake up early when the ac kicks off. the whole town seems to be up and stirring once this happens, so be prepared to wake up early! el nido is an incredible place- the scenery is amazing, and the snorkeling is very good. you must check this place out, and stay at garnet hotel- you'll be happy you did!

Excellent Location ”
Great thing about Garnet is that it is on the Main Street in El Nido where all the restaurants are. Luckily the street that it is on is closed from 5:30pm - 5:30am, so you're able to walk around in the evenings and enjoy without having to worry about Traffic. First look, you may think it's a subpar hotel but it really is a clean hotel with great location. You will always see one of the ladies sweeping away at all th sand tracked in by the tourists. Right next door, you have IBR that is open 24/7 for your hungry appetite especially if you have to wake up early for diving (2 dive shops across) ! Not the best food, but it is open for your early mornings before your dive. Garnet was actually our 2nd choice hotel. We wanted to stay at spin hostel for 4 nights, but since we couldn't stay for all 4 we did 2 nights at Garnet and 2 at spin. We regretted spin immediately and wanted to move back to Garnet, but couldn't because we prepaid. Would highly recommend! Perfect location.
