Main Hotel & Suites

Cebu Downtown Cebu|2.07km from Penguin
I had a wonderful Christmas Hotel 2022 Staycation experience courtesy of the Main Hotel and Suites located in Barangay Banilad in the City of Cebu. This is my 21st Hotel-Resort-Farm-Campground Staycation in total here in Cebu since Christmas 2020. I instantly noticed most of their guests are foreign tourists. I easily feel the warmth the moment they welcomed me and I could feel at home away from home with their kind and accommodating staff like the  Housekeeping personnel, Irene Tolentino who carry my traveling bag to my standard queen room while having my vlogging, and Stanlee Montecalvo for the maintenance for something that needs to be fixed with Security Guard Jonathan Mendoza who act as my cameraman and delivered all my needs in the room. All these things are made possible by Front Office Associate Joyce Villanueva from the booking reservations up until our constant communication as she instantly answered all my queries and requests weeks before my stay. I got the biggest surprise when I was given that amazing Christmas gift hotel room upgrade on that Christmas morning when Front Office Associate Sheila Matuguina handed me the key for the Main Suite Room with a king-size bed, a sofa, a spacious shower & toilet, a personal refrigerator, a kettle, safety deposit box and has a small balcony overlooking the city view. I could still remember this beautiful serene Christmas night when I powered off all the lights while I was seating on top of my big king-size mattress with large soft pillows at my back and on my head while leaning on the wall. I was deeply mesmerized by the beauty of the city by night from the main suite room window. I couldn't imagine that I can have this kind of wonderful celebration on Christmas night blessed with good weather and a good climate. Two years ago, we were in quarantine and social distancing with strict protocol to follow brought by the Covid-19 pandemic, and a year ago, we are to deal with the devastating aftermath of super typhoon Odette without power, no water supply, limited supply of food, most houses were destroyed and several families were homeless. No wonder they have been awarded Tripadvisor's Travelers' Choice Award winning for consecutive years for the kind of service they have given me. With this track record, now I know the reason why travelers both local and foreign nationals choose to stay here because I, myself personally experience it.

Cebu Parklane International Hotel
4.3/5172 Reviews
Cebu Downtown
Good location near Ayala Center mall, although walking there is a bit hazardous. The outdoor common areas with the restaurant and pool are good. The gym is exceptionally well equipped for a hotel, although average cleanliness. The security policies are a little weird, not letting people leave without clearance at certain times (while letting people into the aforementioned common areas freely).
Hop Inn Hotel Cebu City
4.4/595 Reviews
Cebu Downtown
I would give it a 3/5 for my 3 nights stay! The rooms were clean and quiet. It is away from the loud music or noise from elsewhere. The rooms are new as well. It is cheap so you get what you've paid for. Staffs at the Front Desk can be a little more welcoming to be honest. They will just look at you when you pass by the Reception especially during the afternoon time shift girl and guy and the 2 guys in the Morning are the coldest person ever. I think that what is lacking! They find it hard to greet you even a hi or hello! They should learn from the staffs in the 3 star Hotels in Bohol or Palawan. Despite their Hotel is not new they even out the experience with a sincere and welcoming smile. Could have also been better if they provide a minibar or a water kettle to have some coffee or something. If you are on a budget and no issues with unwelcoming staffs in the Hotel, This Hotel is recommended!
MJ Hotel and Suites
3.9/536 Reviews
Cebu Downtown
The location of MJ Hotel & Suites was very convenient. It was only a short walking distance from a major mall (Ayala Mall) where food stores are abundant and ATM machines are easy to find. The hotel staff are helpful and quick to respond to room service requests. Particularly appreciated that when I first enter my room it smelled fresh and clean. I like it very much that there are sachets of service coffee available in the room along with a water heater. Cold drinking water is also free 24/7 because there is a service water dispenser on every floor. The room is spacious. For someone like me who travels for work, the best thing is a good wifi connection, and this hotel has it. A little bit of a downside is the lack of a working table lamp for some guests like myself who works at night on my laptop and needs sufficient lighting. But overall, this hotel is a good value for the money spent. Looking forward to staying again in MJ Hotel next time I will be in Cebu.
Seda Ayala Center Cebu
4.5/5253 Reviews

The hotel is really good, with a perfect location and good amenities.. If I come back to Cebu, for sure I would stay at Seda Ayala hotel. The breakfast is really good and the service is excellent.
Quest Hotel & Conference Center Cebu
4.4/5448 Reviews
Cebu Downtown
The room is clean. Glass water bottles that are very eco-conscious. The cleaning service is very prompt, room smells good. Room service for food however needs to improve. Ordered for drinks but took a long time to inform us of the unavailability.
Mandarin Plaza Hotel
4.1/563 Reviews
Cebu Downtown
We stayed at the Mandarin Plaza for 3 nights at the end of our trip to Philippines. We booked two rooms and they were on the 16th floor. The views were great and it was very quiet. Beds were comfortable and the rooms were really clean. A lot of the TV channels were not working so we were limited in what we could watch however the wifi was sufficient and we could utilise our phones for entertainment. Breakfast was good however a little expensive if it is not included in your room. We paid an extra 1000php per night for an extra trundle bed and then an extra 50% of the room rate for late checkout of 6pm due to a late airport departure. The staff were very lovely and accommodating. Location is very close to the Ayala Centre and we walked there in less than 5 minutes.
