STAYCATION

[Tumblrista]

Anyone who have stayed at SIGLO SUITES @ The Gramercy Residences?

We celebrated our 8th anniversary in Sofitel. I'm torn between EDSA Shangri-La or Sofitel dahil sa waterpark nila, nagtanong pa ako dito before. So go ako sa Sofitel para sa good sunset, kaso inulan naman kami. Pero medyo disappointed ako sa waterpark nila. We stayed for 3 days. At sa 3 days na yun, 4 out of 5 na slides eh close. As in yung mga family with small/not so small kids eh medyo disappointed din. Sabi pa noong isang teenager it's so boring here. So tip ko sa mga mag-staycation sa Sofitel call them to ask kung bukas mga slides nila. Kasi baka forever naka-under maintenance.

Hi,

I am planning a holiday staycation with my kids.

Any suggestion for a place that is child-friendly?

[michi247]

^ EDSA Shangri la and Sofitel, meron kasi sila wet play area.

Same experience kay @ swtgrl_bee, nung unang stay namin sa Sofitel, sarado big slide so okay lang kasi naenjoy pa ng anak ko yung pambata na slide. Bumalik kami last September, yung pang toddler lang naslide ang open so disappointed kami kasi yung nga binalikan namin. Birthday celebration ng anak ko yun at yun ang request niya tapos under maintenance pala.  So better to ask muna bago magreserve.

[swtgrl_bee]

^OMG! June kami tapos kayo September under maintenance pa din? At hindi naman barya lang binabayad sa kanila.

Kaya kapag may nagtatanong if recommended ko ang Sofitel, no talaga!  Kasi hindi talaga siya well maintained. I am not really happy during our stay, ang baho pa noong sa harap nila. Hindi ko tuloy alam kung yung ROI nila eh ang baba at hindi nila ma-maintain ang facilities nila. Naturingan lang talagang Sofitel siya.

[michi247]

^ Feb yung una, yung big slide ang under maintenance tapos last September, 2 slide naman. Sabi pipinturahan daw kaya hindi pwede gamitin pero wala naman kami nakitang nagpintura hanggang makaalis kami. hehe! Buti bago kami magcheck-out inopen na nila yung big slide, at least nakapagslide ng konti anak ko.

Baka hindi talaga nila inoopen ng sabay-sabay yung slide kung Feb, June at September 2018 e may naka under maintenance.

Saw in my feed a new hotel in Tagaytay which is Twin Lakes Hotel. Heated ang pool! And syempre maganda ang view. They just opened today yata. Saw their rate is 8k per night. Antay muna ng reviews.

[AsunaYuuki]

any recos around Alabang area aside from Acacia and Crimson?

Or sa Tagaytay basta yung affordable sana ang rates. TIA!

Azumi boutique hotel and Vivere suites.

[o9kristin]

^^We?ve been to Sommerset Alabang. Maganda yung 1 bedroom nila super spacious. Konti nga lang ng options sa buffet breakfast. Ok din sa vivere, ganda ng view sa The Nest (restaurant) pero dated yung rooms. Not sure if nagrenovate na sila.

[AsunaYuuki]

Thanks for the suggestions sis airish_2 and o9kristin. Will check those hotels.

Nagtitingin din ako ng hotel or resort in Tagaytay at mukhang maganda sa Escala. Ang bongga lang nung infinity pool nila

I won 3D2N hotel staycation sa work. Hotel is Aruga by Rockwell..

haven't read any reviews from here. From BR Premier, naging studio type na  lang dahil fully booked na yung chosen date na gusto ko.. Sayang.

First time namen maghotel staycation ng hubby ko, tapos icelebrate pa namen ang birthday niya..
Any sis na may review about sa Aruga Hotel Rockwell..

- hidden charge kaya dun?
- kitchen kahit studio type?
- can bring food from outside w/out corkage? plan ko magbring ng bday cake kase eh
- service?
- ano pwede pasyalan sa labas? taga bundok kase kami eh.

Thanks sa reply. Really appreciate it.

Amongst the hotels I have stayed in, I was the happiest at fairmont suite.  That was the first time that I fell in love with the toiletries and even ordered in NY just to maintain.  The second is in Shang the Fort, again with the toiletries that I ordered abroad, but to no avail.  The loccitane variant they offer is exclusive lang for them and I'm sure most of their guests love it.

[Rory_Lorelie_Gilmore]

^Wow Loccitane sila sa Shang the Fort? We stayed sa Shang Boracay last 2017, but they're using a different brand, very basic and forgettable.

I need suggestions please. Saan ba magandang hotel na widespread ang breakfast buffet? And magkano po kaya ang overnight stay for 2? Saan din po ba maganda mag book? Newbie lang po. Thanks

[airish_2]

Novotel Hotel sa cubao wide range cuisine mga 5k ata standard room per night not sure sa current price you can check Booking.com or agoda or try sa Sofitel or Edsa Shang depende kung saan mo gusto mag stay.

Sa Alabang, for me ang medyo madami selection ng breafkast is Crimson

We recently stayed at Citadines in Ortigas. They're part of Ascott chain, same as Somerset in Alabang. Di ko na-judge yung breakfast, umuwi kami agad.
