Due to its vintage décor Grandpa's Inn is a bit like staying in a museum. I stayed for 2 nights in room 1 on the first floor. Although, the room was good enough for 1 person it was a bit on the small side. The bathroom was very small and would be a tight squeeze for large person. The room... More

Despite the musty vintage decor that hangs within the cavernous halls of this restored Commonwealth-era building, the rooms are clean, comfy, and well-appointed. Both on-site restaurants (Cafe Uno and Felicia's Kitchen) are top-notch. The staff are knowledgeable and accommodating; they even helped with my last-minute request for a rented van, after a sudden change of plans. The location is not... More

We visited Vigan in 2012 and stayed at Grandpa's Inn. Best location - very near to Calle Crisologo. The room that we got is good for 2 but 3 people can share since the bed is quite big for 1 person. A deluxe room costs 1500/night, which I believe cheaper than other hotels in Vigan. Clean rooms. Water heater and... More

Finding the cheapest hotel to stay in Vigan was quite a challenge. I came across blog after blog and saw most of them stayed with Grandpa's Inn. The Inn doubles as a vintage collector's haven plus some artworks of great landmarks around Ilocos region. The room is clean (and smells clean :)). The room have good air condition, clean bathroom,... More

I had searched through the internet lodging houses and hotels in Vigan and only one stands out for me. Our Ilocos trip includes one night stop over at Vigan and Grandpa's Inn offered the cheapest accommodation and that to be honest was my first consideration since we are travelling with the whole family. Reservation and inquiry was made by e-mail... More

Room number five is satisfactory but not the window "bright lights illuminates from and the silhouettes of passing people can be felt even your inside the room". That makes the room noisy from the tricycles, jeeps, kalesa, conversations of people in the restaurant adjacent to the hotel. Don't ever stay at the lobby that is full of mosquitoes and various...

We decided to stay in this place after reading information from the Lonely Planet. Initially, we fell in love with how the place looks – it was beautifully renovated, clean and well maintained. As we went around the building, I noticed a very busy street just beside it. The front-desk clerks assured us that traffic dies down around 9PM and... More
