Hotels near EMAR Learning Center University, Davao

I stayed for 3 nights for about 2000 yen. As you write, I thought if I didn't ask for luxury, I would pass this price. Good point price, location in downtown center. Colonial architecture with an insta-fill courtyard pool, and stairs to insta-fill. Free breakfast with a degree of unselectable belly. You can watch CableTV on CRT TV. Good staff response. Bad point Amenities are only bath towels, bag rinse in shampoo, bag soap. No bathtub, safe, electric pot, toilet hand shower. Deluxe double has a refrigerator but fails. Pool that doesn't want to enter. No elevator (although I carried my luggage when I checked in). Wifi is good but slow. et cetera. I would like to compare other hotels or Airbnb at the same price next time I come to DVO.

I am on my Vismin leg of trainings and Davao is my last for this week. Had a great, smooth time in Tacloban, Cebu, Bohol and this last seminar in this hotel have been very challenging so far. At the front desk, I requested for lower floor, which I normally do (due personal traumatic experience which I do not need to explain) and after a series of ”please” thank God, Kate of Front Desk stepped in and found us a room at 6th which will be ready only by 5pm. It was turned over around 6pm. In preparation for our Monday seminar, we coordinated with Rose of Banquet to ocular the place as we have a specific layout to follow that will be good for classroom set up, group dynamics and dining. When we arrived at Ruby function room, linen staff Cory was there arranging for our seminar on Monday so we rendered help in lay outing the tables and chairs, projector screen. When we had to coordinate with the technical, we requested an HDMI longer than 1 meter so laptop can rest on the tech table. Sure they have a longer one but with additional charge of P300/day. When I asked for wireless mic to be used since the activity will involve passing around of microphone among the participants, guess what? Yes, an additional P800/mic/day will be charged! So with the 3 days seminar and 1 week stay that we pre booked and paid , these little requests do not come free. I do not want to ruin my Davao stay because I am an avid fan of our former President Duterte and only have the highest respects for his place. I hope to find some pleasant things from this hotel for the remaining days of my stay here to compensate for the ugly start. Time to activate the Vision Mission which is in every room of the hotel and not just left on the brochure. A simple greeting, some genuine smiles mean a lot to every customer. So far the only staff who has a ready smile and genuinely asks how he can be of service is Jaypee, service crew of Cafe Frances. He takes time to talk with the customers and ask how they are doing and recommends the best dish. Food is great and reasonably priced -- large servings and delicious! As for the edifice, needs repairs and refurbs. We had to call in help for the A/C and busted light bulb.

The hotel lobby is dimly lighted and poorly decorated. The room is very cramp and small, no place to walk around or you can hardly move inside the room. Room has no windows. Bed is also small. Only one torn old towel is provided for two guests. Location is good, just walking distance to Gmall.

This hostel is very accessible. It has a convenience store below so that is a plus. It’s also walking distance from Abreeza Mall. When I go back to Davao, I would definitely book this again.

I really love to stayed there, very accessible and so polite staff

Crown Regency has dipped so low on their amenities. No hot water on the shower, TV not available when we checked into the room, noisy pipes when shower turns on, TV needs to be requested on front desk, TV has 1 channel only, no indoor slippers, broken shelves. But their front desk and staff were helpfull enough. We had early check in. 6 years ago I had buffet breakfast. But now breakfast was just ala carte. We only booked the place because of the pool.

In my 3 days experience, I stayed at Red Planet Hotel Davao branch, which was amazing. Near hospital, Sm Malls, near Probinson grocery and schools. Very accessible rides taxis or public transportation. About room so quiet, clean and so cool. Friendly staff and very affordable when you book online.

Hop Inn Davao is a budget-friendly hotel perfect for business travelers, especially with its location just a short walk from SMX Convention Center and SM Lanang. The rooms are clean and comfortable, designed for a ”sleep and wash” experience, which is part of their no-frills policy. While there’s no breakfast option offered, McDonald’s is conveniently located nearby for a quick bite. The hotel is great for those who prioritize affordability and convenience over luxury amenities. If you're looking for a simple and efficient place to stay during a business trip, Hop Inn Davao is a solid choice.

Transiting through Davao airport and needing a sleepover the OYO 150 Davao Airport view hotel is a great spot to stop over. Very close to the airport, superbly clean and good service. . For travellers there is only one downside. Payment is in cash on arrival. On arrival ask for help from the stake to carry your bad up the stairs to first floor.

Samal Island is just a few minutes boat ride from Davao City. Discovery has its own charter speed boat to the property. Upon arrival we were escorted to the main lobby. Main lobby u will see the beach front ( white sand but not that fine). There is also the restaurant Haribsr and Morning Catch. We were then escoorted to our bedroom using golf carts . The bedroom is has the view pf the olympic size pool which has a view of Davao CITY. The property also has a floating chapel, convention center, villas with designated pool. Bedroom is big, with own terrace. Overall the resort is very nice. Only a year from opening, the staffs are very nice accommodating and well trained. Special mention to one if the staffs who took care of is is Sir Ching. He went the extra mile to find us a room with king size bed facing the pool. Thank you!
