"I had a pleasant stay at Dusit Thani Davao. The suites are spacious, elegant, and well-maintained, making them perfect for both business and leisure stays. The staff were courteous, and the overall ambiance was relaxing and luxurious. The only area that could use some improvement is the breakfast buffet. While the food was decent, I was hoping for a wider variety of dishes and more consistent quality to match the high standard of the accommodations. Overall, it’s still a great place to stay!🙂"

"Overall a great experience! We were only there for 2 nights but it was probably enough because food and drinks are pretty pricey there. Glad breakfast was included. Staff is very friendly. Just a few odd things to point out: no bananas, mangoes, or fruits native to the area (only watermelon, pineapple and canned peaches) and no longanisa or toscino at breakfast. We’d come back!"
