The room was in good condition and clean. THe staff are courteous and very helpful. We arrived at 11pm in the evening so there was no shuttle service. We took a taxi to the hotel but it did not cost alot as the hotel is close proximity to the Puerto Princesa Airport. Overall, it is an exceptional Hotel.

The staff is extremely friendly, welcoming, and helpful. However, the refrigerator was not connected or running, and the safe box not working; both of which are important to me when I travel. Again, the staff is the best asset the hotel offers.

Pros - • very affordable • friendly and helpful staff • easy to get tuktuk (local taxi/bikes) from outside the entrance Cons - • aircon doesn’t work very well • Walls are paper thin • There was a window at the top of the wall in the room, when I stood on the bed to see what was outside i found that it looked straight into someone else’s room… very strange. Overall, for the price, I’d say that it was pretty good, and was fine for the 1 night we booked, but i wouldn’t want to stay here for too many nights.

This is a recent turn over hotel and I feel they are still upgrading from the previous owners. The property is very clean and generally serviceable, but a lot of little things fall short. We had two rooms. One had a modern plastic rfid key, and the other an old fashion metal key. In my room they provided instant coffee packets, but no water heater/kettle. They had two coffee cups but no glasses. Two bath towels, but no hand towels or wash cloths. I felt it was kind of a 3.5 star hotel, but they don’t have 3.5 on the survey scale, so I gave them 4 stars.

I am disappointed with my stay at Empire Suites Hotel. The hotel is dirty and rundown. Area is dumpy and smelly. They advertise terraces, but the rooms don’t have them. When I asked the Front Desk to change to a room with a terrace, he confirmed there were none. He justified their website by claiming that the restaurant has a terrace.

No windows or phone in room. TV not working. Only one towel. Unsecure furniture...."closet" fell on me twice when i opened door. AC unit has a constant drip noise . Bugs, micro-ants, and small lizard in room. Entrance dirty and smells with stray dogs running wild. Staff very apathetic and not very helpful. Avoid this place.

This place was probably one of the worst hotels i’ve stayed at. I’ve been to a lot of places all over the globe, but this was by far THE WORST!!! The staff was unbelievably cunty with me, asking for my itinerary when she had it pulled up on the computer already like she didn’t believe me when i was there the night prior. Charged me 2250 pisos for a late check out? when i never requested a late check out??? also refused to take my cards said cash only, i’m pretty sure it’s just a bunch of scam artists working just like the rest of this godforsaken island, sad to see a holiday in like this.

당혹.

밤비행기로 오고 다음날 호핑을 바로 가기에 호텔에서 머무는 시간이 많지않아 공항과 가까운 곳으로 잡았습니다. 그러나 이선택은 옳지못했습니다. 티키바가 건너편에 있어서 티키바가 새벽 3시4시까지 시끄러워서 잠을 못잤습니다. 또한 조식에서 먹을만한것이 없습니다. 방마다 방음이 되지않습니다. 복도에서 문틈으로 보면 내부가 살짝 보입니다. 직원분들은 매우 친절하십니다. 그리고 1층에 은행이 있어서 가드분 계셔 안전합니다. 또한 1층 마사지는 매우 만족스럽습니다. 시내와 가까워서 시내관광하기에 좋습니다.

Staff are friendly and attentive. Able to provide you with what you need. Just ask for it. This hotel is family oriented. Just walking distance to restaurant or fast food chain including malls like NCCC for shopping or grocery. If you want a quiet night, this is not a place for you. Hotel stay includes continental breakfast or buffett. They never run out of rice or bread. If you like toasted/salted fish, this is a place for you. During my stay, I lost my Fendi watch, but when I checked out and gone out of the door, somebody found my watch and returned it to me. So that was a great sense of relief.

Ruidoso pero muy cómodo

El personal muy amable. No ayudaron a encontrar un servicio de lavado. El desayuno era a la carta. Nos ayudaron a reservar el tour a río subterráneo. El WiFi al igual que en todo filipinas fue pobre pero al acercarte al dispositivo no había problema. La zona es tan ruidosa en la noche que podías escuchar karaoke a kilómetros, ahora el tema del ruido en Filipinas también es súper común. El hotel tiene un servicio gratuito de transporte al aeropuerto.
