“A clean, new hotel with good price!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 28, 2012

Select this hotel just want to try it since there are not so much review on it. However, the result is great! From airport to hotel about P200 or so. To Ayala shopping center only 8P by jeepney. Staff are very kind and willing to help. Hotel facility are quite new. Room space is OK, not so small(like Tune hotel). Very quiet environment. A few steps to nextdoor 7-11, Macdonald, cafeteria, restaurants. The only weak point is: there is no wifi connection in the room. So we can only use wifi connection when close to reception room area or use the PC in reception room.

“BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed November 20, 2012

I always try to stay to a new hotel every time I go to any city in the Philippines to make sure that the linens are still fresh, beds are new, bathroom and room in general are clean. Later, when after I booked a full week reservation on their website, I found out that it was all messed up! Even when I had one of their staff stayed on the phone while I was doing the reservation. Eventually, she got pissed and raised her tone on me when I told her to guarantee that I will have the same rate I am trying to secure online if I follow her instructions to have the booking done the next day because she doesn't know what to do and the only person can help me is her supervisor who will be coming the next day. The next day came and voila, the supervisor texted me that I will get the same rate and my reservation will be done on their end. However, 2 hours later, she texted me again to inform me about the changes of their rates. WHAT THE HELL?!? Obviously, they have untrained staff who pretends they know what to do and giving out wrong information.

I figured, it's not worth it anymore. It took me 4 days to deal with them about my reservation and even after that it was not even fixed. Ridiculous! After hours of waiting for her confirmation if she was able to fix it, I decided to look for another hotel who have the same quality rooms and real Filipino hospitality.

This hotel needs to improve customer service, their website, and their communication.

Beware on using your credit card to secure your booking. Don't do the same mistake that I did. Goodluck!

This review has been escalated to top management right when this review was posted.

We sincerely apologize for this untoward incident. The concerned staff and supervisor has been investigated and actions were taken.

However, bookings from electronic channels like Agoda, Expedia and the likes have their own booking engine/ portal/ site independent from the hotel's website and the hotel has no authority to maneuver a booking when placed on their system . The hotel's website is capable of accepting only non guaranteed reservations to eliminate the requirement of a credit card. Guarantee is practiced only when required on peak dates (e.g. Sinulog festival).

But we truly believe that the matter could have been handled in a better manner. I hope this does not stop you from giving us another chance to be of service.

“Disable friendly hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 4, 2012

Because the hotel is just one floor, has tiled walkway and wide enough for a wheelchair, this would be near perfect for people that are wheel chaired bound and even the elderly. I did not measure the width of the door as to how wide a wheelchair can go in, however its comfortably wide enough to manoeuvre around when needed. My mom uses a cane when she walks, the walkway was good. Not slippery at all, which is very important for senior citizens.

Rooms are good for two persons. Rooms are kept very clean and when requesting for room cleaning, they are quick about it. I love the thick and hard double bed. Lots of room to roll around :P

As you walk through the walk way, you would feel the breeze on your face which is really nice considering you are surrounded by cement buildings. I do hope that the owner of the hotel continues to add more plants around the property to ensure that. It does make a difference!

Ah, i also appreciate the spa next door. Just a short walk form your room, and you can have that massage much needed at the end of the day. There is also the nearby cafe and the famous lechon restaurant! What more can you ask eh?

And for guest with vehicles, they have ample parking space and a security guard is nearby to keep an eye on them.

I will go back for sure. Thank you Escario Central Hotel Staff!
