Find hotels in Rico's Lechon

Stayed 3 nights in April. Arrived at Mactan, Cebu airport and took a metered cab to hotel costing about 200 Peso. Room was huge and beds were comfy. There was cable tv, bath tub and safe avail inside. Got a room on the 6th floor therefore not much view to see though. Also the aircon was a individual unit and not centralised thus allowing to control your own temperatures. Nice Swimming pool was located at the 3rd floor and there was a sauna attached in the toilet. However, sadly even during the afternoon from 12-2pm there was no sunlight and couldnt get a tanned. Breakfast has a reasonable variety of food of both international and asian fare. However, no live station around thus unable to choose your type of eggs. Only scramble was available. Location wise is perfect. Just across the road is Ayala Center and also a chimney bus interchange. Otherwise is a short 5-10 mins taxi ride to SM Mall, IT mall, Mango Sq and Waterfront Casino. However, the nearest 7-11 is about a good 10mins walk away One point to note is the hotel policy of not allowing you to joint two singles bed together (if you are thinking of saving money to book that instead ) as they can charge you 2000 peso for doing that. However, Front desk staffs were patient and at no point did they lost their cool trying their best to explain this policy to me and their best to help even though i felt that this was a ridiculous policy. Overall, 4 star hotel 3 star price. Will definetly return to stay 😃

The hotel is very accesible in most places like going to the malls to shop,taking a day tour to Bohol Island and go swimming in the beach in diff beaches in Mactan Island and very near in stores for buying pasalubong like otap,dried mangoes and dried fish like danggit and dried pusit. The prices is very cheap. The food is superb like lechon cebu.It is very delicious. You can eat it without any sauce on it.I you will eat outside the hotel you can eat in AA inihaw na isda and barbeque restaurant and Jo's chicken inasal. Go to LOft at night and hang up there besides there's a lot of places to go at night.You can try go to TOP and bring some food and drinks to eat there and so romantic to stay there. The staffs from the hotel are very accomodating and very friendly. The most I enjoyed is the casino within a hotel. I stayed there the whole night to play. In addition there is a duty free shop within the hotel to shop. Whenever i go to Cebu im always prefer Water Front Cebu HOtel.

I love that it's right across the Ayala Terraces but they also have cabs ready to take me to wherever my events are. There used to be a Rico's behind it but since it closed, it was replaced with a House of Lechon. Perfect coz one can easily walk to get their Cebu Lechon fix. :) I just don't remember it having a gym which is something I always look for in my hotels for business trips.

We weren't able to book this hotel last year for our wedding anniversary. This year, I made sure we could book it as early as I could. Now I know why it got booked out so quickly--because it had such a great value for money! My husband and I were so happy we want to always stay at this hotel whenever we're in Cebu. The location: outstanding. One Mybus ride to SM Cebu and you're already in front of the hotel. There was a nearby CnT lechon resto, mall, and even a rent-a-car! The modern design room was spacious, and had the basic amenities one would need. The view was nice, the bed, sheets, and pillows were so comfy that getting up was a struggle because we just want to stay all day, haha. The buffet breakfast was delicious and had plenty of choices. The staff was friendly, kind, and super helpful. The only cons I could think of (which wasn't a big deal) was the sound proofing because you could hearing the ships' blaring horns and maybe the window could be cleaned from outside. :)

Value for money. Pros: - Has nearby coffee shops (Bo’s, Cardinal Coffee) and convenience store. - Walking distance to CDUH. - allows luggage storage - They serve black rice in their breakfast meals :) - Super value for money. Room wasn’t fancy but just right if u only need a place to sleep. - Try out House of Lechon or Yakski; both restos are just nearby (walking distance from hotel) - comfy pillows - hot shower Cons: - room given to me didn’t have a window - internet is slow once you’re in your room. Had to go to the nearby Bo’s (acros CDUH) just so I could work.

I have been coming here to the 'Montebello Villa' Hotel for eight years. I come once or twice a year and always stay here. There are other hotels in Cebu in the same price range, but this is the best value for your money. They have been remodeling the hotel bit by bit, and the improvements are outstanding. The hotel is located in Banilad - Apas area, across the boulevard from UC Cebu behind a small mall. The mall is very convenient within walking distance. The staff here at the Montebello are outstanding and sometimes they accept interns from the HRM program at UC. The hotel has beautiful gardens, a number of pools a beauriful terrace ans resturant poolside. I can only give them 5 stars, I wish there were 6 available. JoeKanoguy

I have stayed in many hotels in Cebu, and will more than likely stay here or in Cebu Grand Hotel also booked through Agoda when u look at value, quality, and cost. Yes there are many other good hotels, but not for the price. CLOSE to EVERYTHING! Connected to mall which has groceries and great prices on top floor! Located on the main square / round about so you have many activities there that are very safe to walk to even at night. I would suggest paying the little extra for the deluxe room to get the best view. The hotel is also connected to Cebu Pacific Air office which is excellent convenience...also walking distance to perhaps the best hospital in Cebu as well as at least 2 pharmacies. The restaurant was sufficient and you have plenty of options at the connected mall if you prefer.

if you have done a bit of homework before leaving home and heading to cebu, then radisson has the best proximity to majority of the best spots to visit in cebu. got a premier room on a promo rate at agoda and it was over our expectation. we didn't exactly need a mini office and a living area so it was a very nice bonus. very professional and efficient personnel. after signing our information forms, 5 minutes later we were off to our room. they did forget to tell us that you needed your room card to get the elevator going. count that down as another funny moment. clean and spacious. i do wonder why they only provided 1 pair of slippers when there was 2 of us. but that was such a minor detail. you are right across the street from the famous cnt lechon which is one of the best lechon spots in the country (as most people would say). sm cebu is right next to the hotel (since radisson and sm is owned by the same person) so the shopping started a little early. ayala malls are just a few minutes away (probably 10-15 minutes). all other tourist spots are easily reached either by taxi, jeeps. feria is not as big as the other restaurants of other hotels in manila but it had great food selections and had specials for specific days. all in all, it was a fun short trip and would love to bring family with me the next time.

I've stayed in hotels all over the world, and this is one of the best artistic boutique hotels I've ever been in - equaling the best in Chicago and San Francisco. The rooms are huge with high ceilings - I would guess over 20 feet. Even the hallways are extra-wide, giving a sense of openness to the whole hotel. The rooms have retro murals above the bed. Walking around the hotel is a pleasure because of the artwork and decorations. The one downside I found is the restaurant. I only ate breakfast there but it was way overpriced for poor quality. 350 Pesos got a single egg, ham, processed cheese, toast and fruit. But this is more than made up for by the restaurants around the hotel. The neighborhood of Banilad is the most upscale in Cebu. There are lots of really good restaurants, offering many local and international choices. I had one of the best Thai meals I've had outside Thailand just across the street and there are Italian, Filipino, Chinese and Korean restaurants nearby. In the past I've stayed near the Ayala Mall, which has comparatively limited eating choices after you've been there a week or two. The Banilad neighborhood has much wider choices with better food at lower prices. The outdoor pool is pleasant with a well-kept lawn around it. The staff are warm and helpful. I made a few of special requests and all of them were attended to quickly and effectively. I'm a regular visitor to Cebu, and this has become my new home here.

The hotel is new, clean & in a great location, hence the 5 star rating. It just lack basic in room facilities like microwave oven or coffee maker (only 1 of 3 rooms had a microwave oven). Also, their hotel would be great with a swimming pool. The housekeeping, cafe & kitchen staff were great too but I can't say the same about the receptionists & guard/s. Don't get me wrong, I think the receptionists tried to do their best to be good hosts but with a fully booked hotel & only 1 or 2 receptionists at a time, they couldn't fully give us their smile. What I didn't understand are the guards. They couldn't even help us unload or load our luggage to & from the car eventhough he wasn't doing anything but stand there or chat with the people waiting for the jeepney. Lastly, the bizarre experiences we had was when my son, 3 1/2 y.o, & his nanny entered the bathroom (rm.508), my son pointed at 1 corner of the bathroom & said that "lola" was there. He never does that & the nanny, although scared out of her wits, just told my son to ignore whatever it is. Then my mother in law had nightmares the whole 2 nights we were there. Her nightmares for 2 nights were the same, that a man was following her from the lobby to their room. They're in rm.505 & their door is directly in line with 1 of the elevator door. I don't know but isn't that a bad position for the doors to be directly in line with each other? 😱😱😱

Did you ever end up at a hotel where you were not greeted, not taken care of, not happy with???? Then rest assured there is no need to worry, just book a few nights at the Holiday Spa Hotel, be pampered in the day spa, have a massage, swim in the luxury lap pool, jog on the upstairs circuit, go to the comprehensive gym..... be welcomed by the best staff in Cebu.... I was , this hotel not only boasts all the above but also cleanliness, I have never stayed in a hotel that was so clean... and JUST CHECK OUT THE PRICE for a nights stay using Agoda... the best prices in town..... I thought this hotel was going to be a budget price with Budget facilities, but I was wrong about one thing, the facilities are amazing... for this price you will find no better in Cebu... Love it, I will never stay anywhere else.

Cebu R Hotel's location is one of its best features... it is roughly between two of Cebu's biggest malls, SM City and Ayala Business Park. It is also a block away from a local members-only warehouse store (Landers is a local take on CostCo). There are several services available around the general area, from laundry to massage. Ironically there is no 24 hour grocery like 711 around. The other best feature of the hotel are its friendly and efficient staff, particularly the ladies at the cafe and the front desk. The security guards are also highly commended for their friendliness... they are actually the hotel's first and last impressions and they do a wonderful job. The rooms are pretty basic but they work. There's an open cabinet, a TV, a fridge and of course the important air conditioning unit. I wished the rooms had more power outlets but more importantly, I hope they have a look at the state of the bed linens, which are showing signs of age.

I stayed at Main Hotel with my parents for about 3 days and we were very satisfied with our stay there. The Hotel receptionists were extremely friendly and helpful, they would greet us with big smiles every time we passed through the lobby, asking us how was our day or what our plans were. Especially Shelly, who gave us the most help during our stay there. She willingly helped us organize and book our trips and never left us hanging. The hotel owner was also very helpful in giving us tips on what to do in Cebu. The wifi also worked very well in the hotel, expect for one time where it dropped out, but the staff had already noticed and restarted the internet by the time we called the reception. It was relatively easy to get to main attractions from this hotel. As said Ayala Mall is nearby, and honestly if you book tours, they come to your doorstep to pick you up anyway so you don;t really have to worry about transport. The hotel is also located on a side street so you don't get all the noise. It would be best to get their business card when you're there to show the taxi drivers where it is, some didnt know where the hotel was (i'm guessing they recently had their name changed) They also have cable Tv with loads of channels The downsides: Their breakfast is PRETTY limited. They have an option between a Filipino or Western style breakfast. The western breakfast isnt all that good, i persoanlly got pretty sick of it by the third morning. pretty salty too, but i feel like in general most filipino food is salty lol. So don't expect an amazing breakfast, but still its a very good hotel. Also we ended up buying our own soap and shampoo from the convenience store cuz we didnt really like the ones that were provided. But that's just a small gripe. Overall, i wouldnt mind staying here again

My hotel experience was generally great. The room was spacious and clean. The personnel were professional and very accommodating. The hotel location is perfect if you're visiting Cebu City for vacation. The hotel is a spitting distance to malls, convenience stores, restaurants, bars, fastfood chains, massage spas and almost everything. My room was so conducive for sleeping and I could hardly hear the noise outside. I enjoyed my early morning jog at the Fuente Circle just accross the hotel and the very satisfying buffet breakfast of the hotel. LOL. The hotel rate I got thru Agoda was too cheap compared to the satisfaction I had. Well, despite the old facilities, still, I would prefer this hotel over the other 2 hotels I stayed at during my 4-day vacatiom here. I should had booked in Rajah Park during my entire stay. Nextime, this year for sure.

Marco Polo offers 5 star accommodation in the real sense of the word. The lobby was grand and offers several spots for pictorials with the family. The staff were courteous and helpful at all times. The amenities in the rooms were complete and of good quality. The pillows were the best! Fluffy yet firm. Everything was clean and faintly fragrant, just for my taste. Supply supply in rooms was abundant which makes taking a bath a luxurious experience. The swimming pool may not be so beautiful but the fact that the water temperature was moderated made up for it. Another charm of the hotel is that it is private and located away from the city area. This however, makes Marco Polo inaccessible to clients without a car. I would suggest that travelers intending to enjoy the Marco Polo accommodation must book as early as possible to enjoy big discounts.

My boyfriend and I visited The Lex (don't say Best Western--the cab drivers won't what you're talking about) this April 2014, and it was the perfect cap to our trip to the Philippines after staying in more rustic hotels on the smaller islands. The room design is modern and sleek, and we were particularly happy with the HUGE bed, fresh linens, and comfortable mattress. We both slept for 12 hours the first night there. The room is spacious with all the basics you could need, and the rooftop pool and deck are GREAT for taking in the city when it's too hot to actually go sightseeing. Getting a massage and then enjoying some San Mig Lights by the pool on our last day while waiting to go to the airport: awesome! Breakfast buffet selection is impressive, and I also enjoyed their fried chicken when we ordered room service one night. Probably the best part of our experience was the super friendly, enthusiastic, and helpful staff. We were warmly greeted coming and going from the hotel, and they gave great recommendations for the city, such as getting lechon (roast pork) from Zubuchon just a few doors down. Between the concierge, the doorman, and the guy-who-stands-out-front-to-hail-taxis, they even managed to help us locate a cockfight to go see on our last day in Cebu. We couldn't have been more pleased with our stay ... highly recommending The Lex!

I think ABC Hotel is one of the best economy hotel considering its location and below points. The room is modern and kept very clean by thorough housekeeping. Only a point to improve is (cheap looking) airconditioner's noise. All staff were very friendly and dedicated. I found it difficult to book next day's Island hopping tour for one parson and then talked with one of the staff. She kindly arranged chartered Island hopping tour for me!!! although I finally had to cancel it due to lack of information and transportation trouble. I strongly recommend this hotel.

I booked a two night's stay here (double room w/ ensuite), breakfast included. A reasonable rate for Cebu, and worth it since I booked on such short notice. Despite the name, Express Inn is less of an inn and more of a hotel. The helpful staff tells me they have only been open for less than a year, so everything was pleasantly new and very clean. My room was reasonably spacious, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom even had a rainshower head. It is a budget hotel though, and it comes with the usual cons like having really small and cheap toiletries, and you had to hang a sign on the door of your room if you want to have it cleaned, otherwise the housekeeping wouldn't bother. Nevertheless, I'm glad a lot of comfortable and efficient budget hotels like this are becoming more popular, and Express Inn is no exception. Plus, the location was good, near a lot of cheap eateries and a walkable distance from SM. All in all, a highly recommended stay for the budget-conscious traveler.

My stay at the WellCome Hotel was a pleasurable one, with the location being a short walk to Ayala Mall and nearby restaurants including House of Lechon and Kuya J. I had the Deluxe Room, which was very spacious. The complimentary breakfast was great. Lots of variety for both Filipino and overseas guest each day. I also enjoyed the complimentary drinks (juice/iced tea) that were available at Reception throughout the day. The only negatives i found (and they are very minor) were as follows. The Infinity Pool is much smaller than appears in the photos and its no deeper than 4 foot. Plus the glass surrounding the pool needs to be cleaned regularly, as you could no longer see through it from built up chlorine scum. The second minor issue i had was the TV. Some days there were certain channels, the next day they disappeared. I did a re-scan and new channels appeared and i lost some other channels. Overall, i would stay here again, staff were always friendly and courteous.

Pros: Zubuchon the famous Lechon restaurant in Cebu is a 2 minute walk A row of restaurants infront from Starbucks to Korean BBQ, Mexican food, pizza, and Korean Mexican fusion. Close to Ayala mall and airport Staff is very friendly and can help you get a cab and lend you information of Cebu tours. Standard room has a clean shower and separate bath for relaxation. Comfortable bed or beds if you choose and nice smelling sheets and pillows. They have breakfast, but when you are so close to many of Cebu's iconic restaurants you might just skip out on it. Tv has many movie channels in English and Tagalog. Taxis and tour vans know of its location so it is easy to be dropped off there or picked up.

Although they are not 5 star luxury hotel and ancillary facilities for entertainment (the tour we travel, I have lived in other 5 star hotels, the price of error is large, the absolute subsidiary entertainment facilities and restaurants can not compare), However, due to the cost of affordable facilities is reasonable. in order to give customers lower the cost of parity the most intimate feedback is: the attitude of service staff very kindly, and provide customer satisfaction for breakfast, lunch and dinner you can also A lot like the recipe to find affordable and adequate meals.

As only one of the hotel options I listed, I have accidentally pressed the "book" button for Southpole, and booking conditions said it is non-cancellable. I travelled with my senior citizen mom, and she had no complains at all. It was ALL worth it, WIFI is the best - in-room and in the lobby (best I had in most of my domestic hotel bookings) staff were really nice, room was big, breakfast was a bit so-so, location is perfect! Not to mention I had a perfect timing for their room promo.
