              Clean and Big room. good service with wifi

              we are happy with our stay at jilians inn. the receptionist is very accommodating and helpful. the inn has his own travel and tour, so its very convenient to book any tour packages that you want. we arrived at puerto princesa @830am usually pick-up time for tours is 7am, but still they manage to wait for us to accommodate our request. the tour guide they gave us is also helpful, cheerful and lively. after a tiring day, if you want a massage opposite jilians inn there is a nua thai massage at the ground level area. jilians inn is near to airport and beside the inn is a bank and a grocery building (puregold.its a best place to stay in puerto princesa.

              personnel

              i didn't expect that i'll have an airport pick-up but when i went out the puerto princesa airport and getting ready to look for a cheaper ride outside the airport compound, i saw a jillian tourist inn staff with their inn's name so i approached him and was very glad that i am one of the passengers that he's waiting. at the hotel? they greeted us warmly and i already felt at home even if i am alone (my 2 friends were left by the plane). i found a few convenience store and a known supermarket near the place so there's no problem buying my toiletries. the room was big for three persons. clean sheets ... i really like it and if ever i'll return to puerto princesa? i'll stay at the same inn.

              Nice hotel”

              Helpful staff, convenient location, airport transfer

              The hotel is nice, but has nothing special to tell about. To get to Robinson mall you will have to take a tricycle. The city of Puerto Princesa itself is not that big, so it does not really matter where you stay. Most of the time you will use tricycle anyway. Breakfast is purely Philippino-style, with instant coffee 3-in-one. Our room had no window, but this feature seems to be common in some Asian countries. Staff was nice. However, nobody remembered about our airport transfer - despite the fact they asked the time of our departure the day before. Luckily, Puerto Princesa is a small, so it didn't take us a long time to get to the airport after the delay.

              Unexpected Free Pick Up from Airport (9pm)

              We had expected to pay a taxi to find our hotel. Leaving the airport the hotel surprised us with free pickup service. Rooms comfortable and clean. Beside the main road leading to Puerto Princesa centre and plenty of nearby eating and shops.

              great location and accomodating staffs”

              location is near a convenient store, near the highway so you can easily get a tricycle..

              the hotel was clean, staffs were friendly and helpful, i know they tried their best to get us permit for underground river but unfortunately we werent able to get one because no permits werent issued for the whole august because of the early bookings made by tourists. i just have problem with their doorknob..i got locked twice if my boyfriend wasnt there i might have screamed and panicked...overall i enjoyed my stay their..im planning to go back to palawan for underground river and i will surely stay again at this hotel:)

              This was a great base to explore from!”

              Staff's coordinations

              Had a great stay exploring Puerta Princessa from Julian Tourist Inn. From landing the staff was there to great us at the airport and ensure we made it to the hotel. At the hotel the LCD TV greeted our party by name, nice touch. The Inn is well connected with all the tours and everything can be coordinated through them. You won't have to pay a dime until the end of your trip as the Inn pays the guides directly. Prices are standardized and it is no more expensive to go through the hotel then with a tour agency outside the hotel from my inquiries. The rooms themselves are adequate, no real frills but everything you need at a great price. Did I say the staff was great!!!!

              Believe the reviews.. Excellent Service”

              Every member of the staff is so wonderfully helpful

              We didn't bother with a travel agent or setting up travel tours as we already knew that the Underground River was not available as it books up (permit access) 30 days before. But when we arrived at the Jilian Hotel they took us all in and they were all so amazingly helpful. Nene took us across the road to the Coliseum to apply for permits and even offered to follow up for us the next day. above and beyond the call of service. Renting a motorbike, no problem. Honda Bay tour? We did it all including the Underground River and always knew that the Hotel Management and staff had our best interest in their hearts. Thank you.

              Clean, New, Friendly Staff, close to airport

              The hotel is fairly new, clean and a short ride to the airport. We had to shorten our stay in Puerto Princesa, but these were nice accommodations. The rooms towards the front of the building are quite noisy as it's on a major road with the notorious Philippines traffic, so ask for one further back if possible. Also make sure you have a printed map, memorize the name of the shopping complex next door or at least a screen shot on your phone of the place. Many of the cab drivers didn't know where it was at, most likely due to be it being new.

              best customer service I experienced in all of Palawan!

              The rooms are very big and clean. The bed and breakfast was excellent, and the customer service was even better! They helped with everything, and it didn't seem like I was inconveniencing them at all!! It was the best service I've ever experienced at a hotel! I truly recommend this place! Oh, and we stayed at 5 different hotels in Palawan, from 1-4 star and this place had the best water pressure in the shower!!

              We stayed 3 days. Staff helped us out with any questions or provided info that was helpful. Location is not bad but a ways from the tourist zone. Not a problem as transport is easily available. Good spot for jumping north. Rooms was clean and the hot shower was refreshing. Breakfast was simple but satisfying. Would stay here again.

              Nop, not a good choice”

              Price (We've got a huge discount)

              Probably for the price that we paid, is fair enough. However, to be franc, the hotel is not the one to spend more than one night. Because we were passing through Puerto Princesa to go to El Nido, we didn't want to pay more and we look for this hotel. We expected more from it because of the reviews we saw...But if you have the money to stay in other hotel, go for it. Staff nice, rooms are big enough, friendly staff. Bad things are: it wasn't that clean enough and the breakfast is a JOKE (just one plate (no choice) of rice and fried egg)

              Enjoyed our stay at Jilian's. While it's rooms are small, they are cozy. Even though there are no windows, we didn't notice because they use glass blocks above their doors to let some natural light in and the bathrooms have windows, hooray! Travelers in the PH will notice that this is a key feature lacking in many hotels, even 5 star ones.
