4-Star Hotels in Central Visayas, Philippines

We had a wonderful stay at Mercure Mactan and were very happy with our experience. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and conveniently located in Mactan Newtown, where there are plenty of food options, restaurants, and cafes, all just a short walk from the hotel. The staff were friendly and accommodating. We were also celebrating a birthday during our stay, and the hotel kindly prepared a simple cake for us, which we really appreciated. It was a lovely little touch that made the celebration more special. Another great thing is that guests can enjoy access to the pool and beach in Mactan Newtown, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The only area that could be improved is the breakfast selection, but it wasn’t a major issue and didn’t take away from our overall experience. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely consider coming back!

The island was beautiful and we really loved the place. However, I was disappointed with the drone policy. Even though I already had a permit, drone flying was only allowed in one specific area, which did not feel safe because it was surrounded by water. It would be better to provide safer and more flexible flying locations for visitors with approved permits.

the pool wasn't maintain well, it was hazy, blurry water...the aquaplay pool was dirty...water was dirty...seems it wasnt filtered.... the railings were rusted..parts of the hotel was left unmaintained though staffs were friendly and accommodating... I hope they can make up for the things they need to repair.or change... Maybe they should change water in their pools.... Kindda itchy already to the skin

It was very clean and had a wonderful exotic atmosphere, typical of Cebu. Although the beach wasn't very clean, I had originally planned to enjoy the pool and the ambiance, so it wasn't a major issue. However, the path from the front desk to the room and to the pool was sandy, which meant my shoes quickly got covered in sand, and that was a bit of a drawback.

Location wise, this is pefect. You can just take any public transport and you are there when you get off. The staff are very well trained, very nice and very polite. Everything looked very clean and even if the hotel is not that big, they had a badminton/volleball courts. There is enough beach front to walk around. For a Lapu-lapu beach, their beach is clean enough as well. They had plenty of covered lounge couches to enjoy beach front even under the sun. The pool is small but it feels clean. We paid an extra ₱ 500 to get the ”upgrade” for the ocean view and it was our biggest mistake causing us to lose sleep. Apparently, the room assigned to us was part of an adjoining room and the sound insulation was terrible. We can hear everything happening in the other room and unfortunately the couple in the other room were going at it very loudly (the girl was shouting) until around 5 in the morning. We don't recommend the breakfast buffet as well especially if you are paying the extra ₱1,100 for another person. Very few choices, very salty meat dishes and we don't know exactly what caused it but we had a stomachache after breakfast.

The room isn't huge, but it's well-equipped, even with a scale, which is great for those who need to weigh themselves daily. The parking lot 🅿️ is shared with the mall's garage, and while the hotel has designated spots, you need to speak with the security guard inside. Check-in is on the third floor. The pool and gym are both on the top floor, and there's even a bar by the pool. It wasn't too crowded, and the rooftop offers great photo opportunities 🤳. The only minor drawback is a door in the room which, looking at the floor plan, seems to connect to the next room. Although it can't be opened, if a woman were staying alone, it might feel a bit unsettling 😔.

We had a wonderful stay at Holiday Inn Cebu City. The hotel was very clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The room was spacious, and the facilities were excellent. The swimming pool on the 7th floor was one of the highlights of our stay—clean, relaxing, and with a beautiful city view. The location is also very convenient, with a large shopping mall nearby. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

This hotel delivers a masterclass in hospitality. The experience began seamlessly with an immediate, friendly valet service and a highly efficient front desk staff who handled check-in within minutes. Every inch of the property features top-notch amenities, including a pristine, crystal-clean pool that is perfect for daytime relaxation. The breakfast menu is outstanding, offering a massive variety of fresh choices that creatively changed from one day to the next.The absolute highlight of our stay was the amazing roof deck. Sipping expert-level craft cocktails while watching a magnificent sunset was unforgettable. Check-out was just as fast and professional as our arrival. We cannot recommend this place highly enough!

I had a pleasant stay at Savoy Hotel Mactan Cebu. The room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, making it easy to relax after a long day. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and quick to assist with any requests. The hotel facilities, especially the swimming pool, were well-maintained, and the location was convenient, with easy access to the airport and nearby attractions. The breakfast offered a good variety of food, although adding more local dishes would make it even better. Overall, I had a great experience and would recommend this hotel to both business and leisure travellers.

This is my first time booking this hotel and I thought I will never have a chance to stay here. Before my wedding, I booked this hotel since it’s near the church location. We enjoyed the stay. It’s just that we did not get to enjoy the TV because YouTube or other apps won’t work. All throughout the stay we weren’t able to use the TV. Also I called the lobby 5x to ask for a replacement for the 2 mugs for coffee before someone actually gets there to replace it AT THE MORNING. Haven’t also had the time to enjoy pool because we check in late. But their service is good. The hotel is nice. I will surely book again if their TV is already fixed lol. Also two key cards for room and elevator is really hassle on our part. It should’ve been 1 key card, all access, 2pcs since we’re 2 adults. I really appreciate the hotel staff for catering my entourage, we were able to prepare before my wedding and took some pictures at the lobby and pool. Thank you!
