If you want to feel like you are at home but at the same time in a hotel, this is the perfect place. From the very friendly hotel staff, to the spacious and organized rooms, you will have an experience like no other.
The receptionists in this hotel are nice and attentive, and will give everything you need. The prices of the rooms are not that bad as well. Let's just say it was worth it!
Here's A HUGE TIP: check in from their website. I discovered that when you book online, not only is it cheaper, but they give special promos like free massages that are only available IF you book online.
On the other hand, we got booked at their one bedroom executive which is Php 5,000 only; and I am emphasizing on the ONLY. Here's why:
1. You get to have this huge room all by yourself or with a partner. The room comes with a bedroom with super comfortable bed, a TV (well ours didn't work, there was a problem with the antenna), AirCon, closets, and a dresser.
The room also has living area which is big enough where you can enjoy a satellite TV, AirCon, and a mini balcony. They also have a dining area, complete with plates, utensils and cups.
The bathroom's toiletries are complete already. This kind of blew us away since it's the first time that we saw a complete set of bathroom needs. From towels to shampoos, to toothbrushes, to cotton buds, to lotions, to your shaving needs and even a sewing kit! Definitely feels like home. Everything is served to you already.
Plus, you get a kitchen, just in case you wanted to cook dinner or something; Which is really awesome by the way if you're the type of person who doesn't want to go out and spend much money on food.
2. Free use of their hotel facilities. You can get access to their board room, fitness center, swimming pool and jacuzzi.
3. When you wake up, you don't need to think about where to have breakfast because they will automatically give you (upon check in) complimentary tickets to an eat-all-you-can buffet breakfast in their resto, Bistro Del Cielo.
Their buffet breakfast was amazing. They have everything you need for a breakfast. From light meals to heavy, they have it there.
4. Also, you get to have room service till 11 pm, 1 complimentary parking and daily house keeping.
5. This is my most favorite: Free shuttle service to the closest malls. It is my most favorite because you don't normally see hotels offering this kind of service. Their shuttle is not the big ones you usually see on the road. Their shuttle service is actually the private one. Small car, with your own personal driver who is kinda nice as well.
One of the downfalls so far during the stay was that you have to pay for the internet or wifi. Yes, you get to have your own router and wifi access so expect it to be fast but you have to pay Php 100 which is good for 24 hours. Not bad, but we were expecting that there will be a free wifi.
THE VERDICT: If you want to enjoy your stay in Alabang or if you are in a vacation mode and just want to escape reality for a little while but you don't want to feel far from home, this is just the right place for you. The service, and the crew will even make your stay so much better. Although you might bring some more cash for some of their facilities and if you're the type that can't live without the internet.
