The Apo View Hotel Reviews

Very spacious rooms and complete facilities. The staff are accomodating. The elevator lobby is a little hard to locate the first time, but its okay. The best part is the buffet breakfast :) I stayed here for business, but this should be perfect for families and group of friends as well.

the staff were very accommodating especially at the front desk & melo of entrèè restaurant. rooms were big & beds comfy. food in the entrèè were very tasty. only downside was we were given rooms with a view of the rusty roof tops of the neighboring houses. i was kinda expecting a view of the apo to live up the hotel's name.

Hotel is very nice but breakfast buffet had very poor selection

Location Pool Value Clean Great staff Breakfast

we booked two rooms and it were all very nice and clean, the buffet have great selections- free breakfast, and the pool was very clean

Honest hotel staff

It's in the center of the city malls, restaurants are just nearby.

Great

Old hotel. Needs to be improved when it comes to facilities.

We arrived around 630pm, left our things in the room and went out for dinner. When we came back, I laid my son to bed to drink his milk and was shocked to find out that the pillow cases got a lot of hair strands all over it including the linens and blanket! I immediately called housekeeping to replace it! Was very disappointed as I have very high expectation of The Apo View Hotel! Is it because they knew I booked it for a steal price here in Agoda compared to their published rates that's why they never bothered to replace them?! To the manager of the property, I hope you do random checks as this will destroy your hotel's reputation.

I bookes for 4 days and it was amazing stay on this hotel...my nephew and niece were so happy swimming on the pool just in front of our room....Staff were very friendly and accomodating....I definitely will coming back...

Apo hotel has been around for a long time now. The elevator is small and only 1 is functional. I think the price is high considering the facilities are old. Improvements or renovations can be made. On the other hand, the restaurant and food choices are good.

The rooms at 350 and 377 had defective airconditioning system. The first maintenance personnel just reported that our aircon was normally not cold while the second maintenance personnel thoroughly checked the aircon and found ice crystals forming on the said equipment. We transferred twice just to get a comfortable room. We are thankful that the staff were able to attend to our needs. However they don't have much initiative 'coz when I asked for an electric fan that's just what they gave.. Without offering for room transfer until we requested. Breakfast buffet is good and the restaurant staff are very accommodating.

Nothing at all

We enjoyed our stay. Good location for everything. A bit old though..

The place is old but room was still nice. The bathroom needs serious fixing - blower does not work, sink is clogged, no bidet, no hot shower. The frontdesk people are quick and nice. Food was great! Very affordable!

When we arrived at the reception nobody greeted us. One person is prete ding to be very busy talking in the phone while others are inside the staff rooms and came out only after a few minutes.. Room smells like never been use for months.. No scented sprays or something that you can use.. AC only for fan mode.

Hotel ia in Downtown Area and near People's Park...thats really good...the only thing they should start renovating the rooms...furniture are old and cleaner bathroom is a must....but overall i still recommend it to my friends...

0no more hot water, many warms

When I'm in Davao i always try to stay in this hotel. It is close to everything, very clean and very friendly staff.

I feel booking trough Agoda not a real value, always get lower treatment. before i book this hotel i requested high floor but i received 3rd floor when arrived and when ask? they change me to 5th floor which the higher floors reserved for the other sites booking. I stayed for 4 days it’s the same breakfast which is really boring with taste. Really need some renovation for this hotel. I not recommend this hotel for the money paid.

Booked 3 bedrooms x 6pax. Contacted the hotel 10am on the same day of our arrival to comfirm our booking. Staff have confirmed that we are booked for 3bedrooms that day and have asked if what sort of beds do we prefer: 2singles or matrimonial bed? I told her we prefer matrimonial beds. She said its ok. Check in time was supposed to be 2pm but we didn't managed to arrived at the hotel till 7pm. Went to the reception and ask for our rooms. We were told that the rooms are not yet ready as they are still cleaning the room???? And we are having 2single beds each room!!! The lady in the reception said two rooms are ready but the 3rd room is still being cleaned. We were travelling with 2 seniors who are already tired. So we agreed to get the 2rooms while waiting for the 3rdroom so the oldies can have a rest. It was a poor service and we are really not happy

accesible

very clean room

walang modo ang front office supervisor - as far as i could remember "jessie/jc" yung name nya. super rude, mean, walang modo, not a good example of a good hotelier! i will never go back to that hotel ever again and will never recommend that hotel. yung ceiling ng room may tubig tumutulo! ang baho ng rooms 😠😤😡

I loved the king bed, the spacious room, the awesome buffet and great staff. They made us feel at home. Jesti, Bernie and Jun really took great care of us. :)

We requested for a higher floor but we only got 2nd floor, they didnt even bother checking other options for us and minutes later, another guest checked in and was given the 9th floor. Wifi in this hotel was also close to non-existend so this property is nor recommended for business travels who relies on wifi connectivity. We moved to a room closest to the main router on the floor but it didnt make a difference. Service? They definitely have a lot of room to grow. I have worked in several 5 star hotels overseas and the F&B service here was pathetic. The staff won’t even smile and make you feel welcome.. it feels like they just come to work and leave. When we asked for coffee at bfast, the server just looked at us and ignored us.. then the 2nd time we asked, the server poured it and left without even a word... horrible.. location is pretty central but I would rather stay in boutique hotels where i feel welcome.

staff was nice, room was large, clean and simple. breakfast was nice. The rooms required you to have your key card in this little power switch in order for your room to have power... an eco friendly touch which has its pros and cons. Pros: energy saving, keeps your key so you always know where it is. Cons: your room is pretty hot when you arrive. when you leave for the day and your power is off, it turns the fridge power off too. if you don’t return the key card you get charged P500... as an american use to not having to turn key cards in this was an inconvenience since the family we were traveling incurred this fee for leaving without turning their key in.

Needs to be upgraded. I was disappointed that even a hair dryer cant be provided

Needs decorating and new staff

goodhappy!!

Toilet facilities needs uodating

I didn't enjoy the breakfast and there was a small cockroach in the toilet room.

The location is good. Very near to a mall and salon district. The staff are not as friendly as the other hotel we stayed. They don’t greet and no smile. The building needs more lighting. It’s dark and gloomy. The elevator needs renovation. The room is surprisingly wide and spacious and the bed is big too. Nice view of the swimming pool and the mall. You have to call the front desk to give you a hair dryer. The swimming pool is big and there is a deep part so you have to watch your children. The breakfast buffet is disappointing. You have to first go to the Front Desk to get your ticket. When we got to the restaurant , the tables are not clean and no table setting. They ran out of food and drinks. There seems to be a gap in communication because we were asked many times about our breakfast ticket many times by different staffs. WiFi worked in our room. If you don’t mind about those things and just need a place to sleep, this is a good place.

My wife just loved the place and its location, just a walking distance to people's park, malls and eating house. Very accommodating staff that they even set up a baby crib upon request. And good food which we enjoyed during our breakfast.

I stayed with my dad and sister in Apo View for 8 days. The breakfast buffet was good, with a nice selection of food to start the day. They also had bacon! Haha. The best about Apo View were the staff. They were very friendly and took care of what we needed. The only downside is the cleanliness of the pool, and lack of gym amenities, but overall, it was worth our money!

Requested for an early check in but were charged of P1500 on top of our payment, sink was blocked and was reported but never repaired, toulet needs refurbishment , toilet was dirty, no towels when we arrived, and kettle was placed in the toilet? Ewwww... it was very poor, cleanliness wise its soo yukcy

We were for 2 nights and the experience was exceptional. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Our room is so clean except that the air conditioner got busted on our last night due to too much ice. There are no mini bar, the ref is empty. Breakfast is too ordinary. But the experience os really good. Will stay again in this hotel.

The buffet ran out of food and replacement was slow. The menu had very few choices . the room given to us was 3 hrs late than originally promised.

Old, no lights. Water flow in shower is very slow.

the rooms are super clean!!!! but the elevators are OLD and scary! and finding a parking spot is hard

got two connecting rooms for a family of 4.When i went inside the room 834 the floor was wet. I needed to call the housekeeper... the other room was 833. We got inside at around 130pm. So hot outside, we have to switch on the aircon to its maximum. We stayed for almost one hour but twas still hot. We called up engineering dept. the personnel checked just said theres nothing wrong, we just wait for a while. Until 4pm but the blow was just like of a heater. I dialed the reception frint desk housekeeping , called up the front desk but nobody picked up fone.This time to make my sons comfortable, i just opened the connecting door so that room can share with the coldness of the other room. After an hour i dialed again thise numbers and whew the receptionist answered telling me that we will just transfer yo another room but not connected anymore.what? I cant allow my sons to be away ftom us.so we stayed. As my husband wanted to take a shower OMG he had hard time turning the faucet.

everything is perfect..staff and the food.. the bed is very comfortable

Clean and Cozy is what I look for, and this hotel was good for me.

I had changed my date through my travel agency and had an email confirming that the date was changed and when I arrived at the hotel, the staff would not honor what the travel agency said and told me that I had to pay for another night. Later I called the travel agency and they refunded my money. I would never stay here if my life depended on it.

rooms are dated, there was a cockroach in the bathroom, the buffet spread is 1 star at best.... was really disappointed. thought it would be a good hotel. but is 2 star at best,.

had a pleasant stay with my husband right after our wedding, free breakfast were good and acceptable, polite and approachable staff, too. The room AC was producing a little noise audible when TV and other stuff were turned off, though as a whole everything was good.

Hotel is near to everywhere. Very good food and location

We enjoyed our stay as we were conveniently accommodated by the friendly staff.

Icant say anything,ilove all also the staff they are hospitality,and kind,the rooms are goods,service is nice,foods in the morning is very delicious,(buffet)iwanted to stay again at the apo view!!!
