Tagbilaran Hotels with Bars

I traveled solo to Tagbilaran for business. The Metrocentre was recommended to me. Upon check in, I was requested to make a 500 peso deposit. The front desk clerk said it was for ”incidentals” and would be refunded upon check out. I asked what was meant by ”incidentals” and she said it refered to any other charges I made on my account, such as food at the coffee shop. I was billeted in a standard room, which could have accommodated two people. It was very comfortable. Bed mattress and pillows were nice and firm. The aircondition unit was working very efficiently and kept me cold, which was what I wanted. The bathroom was clean and spacious enough. I felt a little bit claustrophobic though because the window of my room was a small one and was heavily draped. Even if I drew the drapes open, the view to the outside was obscured by some kind of machine, probably an aircon unit. Amenities in the room included free bottled water (2 bottles), two cookie packs, shampoo and soap. There were nice thick bath towels and rubber slippers for room use. There were a lot of lights, I noticed. Some of the light switches were hidden by the pillows on the bed. I didn't see them at first and had to call the front desk to find out how to switch a couple of the overhead lights off. The room had a nice flat screen TV and a refrigerator. Wifi is best downstairs at the hotel lobby. Signal is weak in the rooms. My booking came with free plated breakfast, a choice of American or Filipino. In terms of serving size, it's pretty decent. Breakfast is served as early as 5 am and so that is really, really convenient if you have to get out early. The free airport shuttle was also another convenient service offered by the hotel. The hotel coffee shop is pleasant. Service was friendly and accommodating. My hosts, who chose this hotel for me, said that they chose this hotel because it was safe. I would go back to this hotel.

The hotel is located close to the port, easy access to the bus station for independent travel around the island. The service and amenities correspond to the category, the staff is polite and friendly. There is silence in the room! We recommend

We booked a Deluxe room, which at 36 square meters was the largest non-suite of our trip. Upon checkin, they wanted a 1K cash deposit so that we could charge things. They only gave us one card key, and said they couldn’t give us others that night since the hotel was full. When we went back to our room it was much warmer, since the power had been off. The next day we got another key. The room looked good at first. It had a room-service menu and Kleenex (actually harder, like small paper towels). The WiFi was strong, and worked with my Kindle, unlike most. We had various problems with the room, however. The safe was too small for a laptop, and didn’t even have batteries in it. The desk had a bad working position. The bed had only a blanket, not a sheet. The shower fan didn’t work; we told them about it on our first evening there, but they didn’t fix it while we were there. There was no hand towel, only a bath mat and shower towels. The shower could be better: the overhead rain head had low flow and the handheld one liked to fall down. It was hard to figure out how to turn off the some of the bathroom lights in Kew: I figured out that they’re under a water-protecting cover in the bathroom, separate from the main bathroom light switch, which was outside. They want you to put towels on the floor if they should be replaced, and a card on the pillow to replace linens. We saw a cockroach by the door when we came back to the room once, but managed to get him outside of the room. It was difficult to adjust the curtain, and the first night we didn’t close it completely so it was bright in the morning. There was a good bit of street noise on our top floor room. In the morning, we discovered that there’d been a window open since we arrived. After I closed it, there still seemed to be a good bit of street noise, and we discovered that the AC unit wasn't well sealed. One time they made up our room but took our shower towels; they quickly provided new ones when informed. The humidity was rather high unless we turned the temperature down to around 73F. The toilet tended to get clogged, and we had to ask a second time to get it unclogged. In August, 2022 their roof deck lounge wasn't operational after the December, 2021 typhoon, though they appeared to be fixing it. Their restaurant, Café Melecia, had an extensive dinner menu, and our dinner was quite good. We liked our enormous ”appetizer” of beef salpicao and leche flan, the adobong kangkong with lechon kawali not so much. They didn't have napkins on the table, so we had to request them. We didn't like their breakfast buffet as much as the other breakfast buffets we’d been to on this trip. They again didn’t have napkins. Getting there earlier helps for variety (our visits were a little after 9 AM versus a little after 9:30 AM). I liked their ham and cheese omelet, orange marmalade, and egg drop soup. We rated this about the middle of the hotels we stayed in on this trip, and second-best of the four ho

I have traveled all over the world and the Manager and other workers at Cesar's Place make this hotel my home away from home while in Bohol. They consistently go above and beyond what you would expect for service for such a reasonable price! They are not mind readers so occasionally if I have a special request I do have to ask but they are always very accommodating and super friendly. If you are traveling to Bohol contact them directly. They also have longer stays with and without breakfast. I have seen on some other booking sites they say some rooms are NO CHILDREN under 13 - but definitely contact the hotel directly as they said this was not really their policy.

This is the best place to stay in Bohol. Everything is superb specially the FRONT DESK guy who is very helpful and friendly and will taking care of you if anything you need. His like working in a five star hotel. The food preparation is superb. It’s very recommendable place to stay trust me. Will be going back there. We check in 8/8/22 and check out 8/10/22.

We only stayed at the lodge for one night but I would have loved to have stayed here for longer. The lodge and grounds are so quaint and quirky and the staff are so lovely and welcoming - Gloria even brought us flowers for our room when we arrived (she called herself a romantic)! PROS -Location: 10 min walk from the ferry port, supermarkets and tricycles nearby, felt safe and secure -Grounds: the accommodation is a large mansion with a shaded garden area and lots of seating areas to relax in apart from your room, and meet others -Good WIFI -Shared bathroom: Cleaned throughout the day, showers with good pressure and warm water, towels provided -Our twin room: clean, comfortable, enough space, AC, affordable price -Staff: Helpful and friendly staff, possible to organise tours via the lodge -Food: Yummy Breakfast with vegan options available all day for 100ish pesos. In the evenings there is a BBQ and karaoke available if requested (but the lodge is quiet from 11pm) CONS -None: definitely stay here!!

I am happy to have known Hotel Gabriella. I have had a wonderful experience staying in this hotel with my family. The food is very delicious, the interior is great, the pool is just right for my height hehe, the staff are very courteous and accomodating, the room is neat and tidy. It has tv, microwave oven, fridge, and most of all, a safety box for your important docs and stuff. To those who are planning to find a hotel that is affordable and classy, I hope you will include this hotel in your options.😊

I stayed at Kode inn on march 12-15 2023, I like my room. It's very clean, comfortable and well ventilated. I had a nice view from my room of the tagbilaran bay but if you struggle going up the stairs it is best to request the ground floor rooms. I surely will recommend this place to my friends.
