We booked this hotel through the internet and telephone calls made by my Philippines wife. When we arrived at the Hotel they showed us a dirty smoking room, we said we ordered non smoking and they then showed us a clean non smoking room BUT asked for more money. I do not like bait and switch deals so we checked... more

I normally stay in the Mid-town area of Cebu, but during the Sinulog Festival, vacancy was limited. The Montebello Villa is Uptown, but not terribly far from the City Center attractions. There's a 24-hr. business center, a pool and included breakfast for a sort-of budget price. My room was large and clean, though a bit dated. A noisy A/C and... more

I had booked my room online and communication was great. Got responses quick and was able to communicate fine. I had booked the hotel in my name and my cousins were going to check in first and they were fine with this. Booked the executive suite, the room was great nice and big and divided into two rooms. There was... more

I love the place... not only the Spanish style look of it but also the beautiful garden what impress me the most. I have my wedding there at the beautiful garden and the reception follows at the hotel ballroom. I think it's really a best place for wedding ceremony. more

It's close to the shopping centre and entertainment, but it's quiet and there is plenty of space. The beautiful gardens are a real treasure in a rapidly growing metropolis such as Cebu. The... more

I've stayed in Cebu City twice now in the past year. Both times at the Monetbello Villa Hotel. Although it is an older hotel it is being completely remodeled, both rooms and facilities. It is a full service hotel with all of the amenities of a western branded hotel for less than half the price. Alsot the Montebello is minutes... more

Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Lobby, Restaurants, and Pool area very clean and well maintained. Gardens are beautiful. Rooms are in desperate need of remodeling and are very old and out dated. Bathrooms are horrible the tub we surely would never sit in. Toilets flushed extremely slow as if they do not want to flush. Takes for ever to... more

I disagree with the earlier respondent who reported an unsavory atmosphere at the Montebello Villa. Au Contraire! During my recent stay (I have b een coming to the Philippines since 1989) I found the hotel up to its usual high standards for pleasantry, courtesy and prompt service. Every time I come to the hotel I feel I'm stepping back in... more
