Best Hotels in Puerto Princesa, Philippines

After our experience in Manila, this place was fantastic. It was affordable, clean and comfortable - but not quite like the pictures. The staff were very nice and let us hang out and look after our baggage well and truely after we had checked out. However be careful, when I booked this the name I was given of the Hotel was Red Doorz, which there are many of and firstly ended up at the wrong hotel

We spent a week while in this hotel is very well hosting the boss speaks very well French ! Comfortable room pleasant bathroom sympathetic decorations very gentle price bravos to remake André

I've stayed in this hotel before, and I keep returning since it's affordable, safe, and has decent rooms and a spacious parking lot—features that other hotels in Palawan lack.I've recently noticed that they no longer offer airport service, although they have contacts for taxi drivers in case you need one. However, it would be great if they could add the airport pickup and drop-off once more for a hassle-free trip, especially for those visiting Palawan for the first time .Being somewhat honest, some taxis, vans, and tricycles take advantage of tourists by charging them more than the normal.

Really liked the rooftop with the infinity pool and bar, the staff were super smiling and pleasant to talk to, the staffs looked clean and well groomed, the restaurant was beautiful The less positive is that the shower could have been cleaner , the food was ok , nothing really bad but just on a low standard which was still ok for the price we paid, plus I take it as normal in Philippine, I couldn’t really expect them to cook western food like Michelin star restaurant. Overall a very nice stay and certainly a great value.

First of all, let me start by saying how much we LOVED our stay. The location is absolutely stunning, and we had an amazing stay. First and foremost, I want to thank to all the staffs esp to Aj ( who made our stay extra special. The food for me was exceptional, they had a wide variety of cuisines, and I was there for 2 nights and didn't have a bad meal while I was there. I felt the food price was very reasonable given the location, service and quality Astoria set the bar incredibly high and for someone who considers themselves to have a vacation I would highly recommend this place.

We stayed at The Funny Lion in Peurto Princesa in April. It was the perfect stay. The resort is new, and is beautiful from the minute you enter the grounds. The room is large with big comfortable beds and everything you need including a large flat screen TV, filtered water, fresh fruit and a quiet air con system. It was immaculately clean. Rooms are serviced daily including a turn down service at 6:30pm. The pool and restaurant are stunning, situated on the beach edge, food in the restaurant is lovely and room price includes a full buffet breakfast. All amazing and cannot be faulted. The most incredible part of our stay however were the staff. Nothing is a problem and they go out of their way to accommodate any requests. We will definitely be back but next time will stay longer. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.

Extremely clean and spacious room. Loved the contemporary design. Almost everything looked really new when we were there. Great breakfast with variety. The staff was really helpful and courteous. The location of the hotel is great and close to everything.

A group of us stayed here the night of arriving in PP before embarking our scuba liveaboard and chose the hotel as it was where the liveaboard company did a town pick up from. Simple accommodation, but clean and functioning. Very spacious rooms - we had 4 girls sharing one room with two double beds. The bathroom/shower was a little tired but I only had one quick shower. A pretty garden surrounding a pool - I didn't end up swimming as it was quite a hot, muggy, grey day and the pool was more warm than refreshing in that moment, but I also only spent about 18 hours total at the hotel so if I was there longer I would definitely have had some pooltime. It was cute watching some local kids have a mermaiding lesson. The restaurant is not set up for large orders so bear that in mind timing wise - it is a one chef kitchen. If you are landing at 7pm or later make sure you request the chef stay if you want dinner on site as they will otherwise leave at 9pm. The chicken & mushroom pasta was good. Breakfast was also good - fruit, pancakes and egg, but only instant coffee. I particularly liked the access to free drinking water refill - there is a cooler in the dining area. The staff were helpful - with the chef staying late for us, helping us call to book some massages down the road at Nuat Thai Spa, helping me get a bowl of rice for lunch when I tried to order when the kitchen was backed up we made a plan B. Location is a bit further down in the quiet end of Manalo St. It isn't far to walk up to the part with restaurants, coffee shops and the spa, but I probably wouldn't have done that walk alone as a female in the dark so I would stay here with a group more than solo. I'm sure it is very safe, but as a general rule of thumb I don't walk alone in the dark down quiet streets. After the liveaboard I stayed in the 'busier' part of Manalo St. Would I stay here again - well if in PP I would probably go to my second hotel as a repeat customer as it was just nicer all around (but also cost double the price). However, Acacia is perfectly adequate for the price point if you are looking for accommodation close to the airport or the boat pier in southern PP at a very reasonable price and it is true to the pictures.

This is definitely the best deal in the city! The room was clean, big TV, new air conditioner , newly renovated washroom and king sized bed with great pillows and comforter! The price includes breakfast daily ay the cafe on the grounds which was very nice and shuttle service to the airport! VERY comfortable and well priced stay!! It's right on the main road as you come into town so close to a great restaurant called Jory's and McDonalds is right across the street!

The one flaw in this hotel was the location. Not that far from the airport or the malls, but you absolutly need a trike or a taxi to go anywhere. The trike was cheap, only a dollor or two but a bit of a pain waiting for it. 10 or 15 minutes. not a big dea\ Pool was awesome\ Food was good Staff was excellant Sunsets were really good. Hotel backs right on to the beach. Swimming is tuff in the sea cuz at low tide, the water recedes to 100 or so meters away. but the pool is good. The only real site that I found to go to was the Underground River, so Puerto Princess is good for a 3 day vist.
