The Monarch Hotel Pangasinan Map, Address, Transportation & Nearest Stations and Airport

Pros: 1. Place looks new. Sheets and towels are also new and feels premium. 2. Breakfast was great esp the hot choco. 3. Front desk personnel were nice and very responsive. 4. Wifi and water pressure are both strong. 5. The personal butler touch was a bonus. Cons 1. The deluxe villa, which is supposed to be for 4 pax, is quite small. Its more suited for 2 pax. 2. Spa prices are quite steep. 3. Plunge pool is small. Management should consider making it heated, otherwise, guests will not find it of much use. 4. I understand that its an eco resort but a little more landscaping will make it more attractive to guests

At the moment i am here at the Monarch Hotel in Calasiao… and so far, we are loving it! My daughter enjoyed the pool, i love the room, it is big enough for 3 guests…i’ll probably try the suite next time 😊 and of course, customer service is superb! I hope it won’t change in the future. When I say future that would be tomorrow hahaha Big thanks to Mel, i think he is a manager because he has the aura of a manager… very welcoming, warmth and empathetic. Thanks to Vhea too (i hope i got her name right) for checking us in with all smiles and kindness. I shall rate their breakfast and check out procedure tomorrow.

Overnight stay, AC, clean, pleasant staff, ok breakfast, near outdoor markets for shopping. Hot water, good WIFI, cable. Good tricycle access to board walk area. 4 -water smells like rust, mattress was firm foam like material, rooms not very sound proof- a lot of moving of furniture above us.

Wonderful stay at the Palm. Came for a Valentine’s getaway and it really exceeded our expectations in every way. It’s quite new, very well designed, with two great pools, great staff and good dining and drinking options. It’s also peaceful,and tranquil - very relaxing. Rooms are good size, with pools view and nice breeze, and each with its own balcony. Overall security is very good, and there is plentiful parking. It’s near Lin***en, although would be great for anyone as this part of Pangasinan doesn’t have anything approaching this level of quality and environment. It isn’t that cheap, but represents outstanding value for money. Looking forward to visiting it again. Really well done!

Very good modern hotel, done out very tastefully and with lovely staff. It has a good location in the town center, close to the iconic church shrine, and places to eat and small shops. The free parking is another plus, as is the diligent and professional security. Filipino breakfast also very nice. The WiFi is fast and TV choices OK. Just one thing is letting it down - if you are looking for a nice hot shower late at night or early in the morning, forget it. There does not seem to be any hot water at those times, and it’s lukewarm at best for the remainder. We asked about that, but received non-commital reply that everything was running ok and the maintenance staff was on day off on a Sunday. If we wanted they would give us a bucket of hot water to wash with. Sorry, but guests paying for a hotel like this, which isn’t a budget outfit, expect hot water. Maybe it’s trying to save money I don’t know (some sort of system can be heard running around 5 in the morning and warm water is on tap around an hour or two later). But either way, would only return again if that issue is fixed. So, great place with a bit of an issue with its hot water. Its excellent staff ensure a high score, despite its shortcomings which are definitely a management / ownership issue.

We had a wonderful time in this hotel! The staff did a good job in making our stay as fun as possible. The room, facilities, food and of course, the staff are commendable. Going back for sure. 👍🤩

We spent a couple of weeks here during two different stays. We stayed in similar rooms on different floors. The rooms are small, tired and grubby, clearly worn out and way past their refurbishment date. The in room/wall air-con units were 30+ year old units and extremely noisy and not very effective, making a restful sleep very difficult. The bathrooms were dirty, dark and disgusting even for a three star hotel. The lighting was so poor you could not use the mirror for shaving as you could only see one side of your face! Whilst cleaned every day the room/bathroom never felt clean and certainly were not inviting. In house dining options were very limited as was the menu, with the second floor dining room doubling as a bar (with no atmosphere). Staff in general were always helpful. Renovations had commenced during our stay (providing an additional source of noise during the day). I hope the finished product is a significant improvement.
