Hotels near Kadilyan Eco Park, Ilocos Sur

One of 3 hotels in Vigan that was recommended by family members, this was the only one that had availability. So we hoped/prayed it would be decent. Upon arrival, we were disappointed with its distance in proximity to the town center. Its grounds and curb appeal did not resemble its online appearance. We received a warm and friendly greeting and had much needed help with our bags as there were no elevators. Our standard double was very small; we moved to another room because the a/c was not very good. Our 2nd room a/c was very good, but had a musty smell. There are no in-room safes, refrigerator or ice machines. They prolly need to do a room inspection before releasing room because I had to call down for TP & towels. You should upgrade to include wash cloths, bedside lamps that works, a better wall mirror and bathroom fixtures that are not rusty. My kid's first standard twin room was unacceptable because it was dirty and had no toilet seat. They were moved to a standard triple, but I requested another move because we needed stronger WiFi for remote work. Their third room, the following day, was much better. There is a restaurant on site that is limited in menu options and availability. We appreciated the filtered water cooler availability. Overall, the staff was patient, kind and very accommodating. They did try very hard to make sure we were comfortable and addressed our concerns. Shout out to Rush, who is awesome and the reason I increased my review from 1 to 3 stars It is because of Rush and the staff that I do recommend Hotel Metro Vigan to anyone who can overlook my concerns that I mentioned and doesn't require a safe, and/or additional hotel amenities.

We just came back from our visit to Vigan, Ilocos Sur. I thought to write this review before I start to get busy with work and home chores:-) The whole staff starting with Jackie, Jo, and all others there, they made our stay like our true home. They are warm people, attentive to our needs, caring, and respectful. The Hotel kept their place clean and sanitized maintaining the historic cultural appearance of the place. They have warm water for bath and provided us with clean towels, and complete toiletries. Breakfast is included in the daily charge. If you want to ride a ”calesa,” Jo did a good job in finding us a beautiful horse (his name is ”Castanio”), sturdy and strong. Hotel Felicidad provided us with a list of places to see. The Hotel has its own big parking lot that is secured. They, too, have their own transportation that caters to tourists (upon request) to take them to shop around the Calle Crisologo sections. Their wi-fi has a strong signal. Not sure of a business center since we were there for a pleasure visit. It's best to visit the ”Calle Crisologo” in the late afternoon till the evening. The beauty of the historic houses reveals even more their meaning. Try to visit the Bell Tower, do not miss it! I highly recommend Hotel Felicidad to all. Its proximity is best to tourist attractions, restaurants, churches, bakeries, and many more.

Hotel Mercante was such a great part of my fun, peaceful, safe, educational, and rejuvenating stay in Vigan (Jan. 29-31, 2024). I had been skeptical at first about the 4.5 (out of 5) average rating that the hotel has received so far from Trip Advisor reviewers. After all, there are many other more popular (higher-rated and understandably higher-priced) options for accommodations in the city. But having enjoyed the Hotel Mercante experience myself, I do recommend the place for no-fuss travelers like me, who simply want a safe, clean, quiet, and efficiently run hotel. More than the basic amenities, however, there is something truly commendable about the hotel’s staff and management, with their warmth, care, and professionalism. Of course, hotel employees are trained to smile and to be polite, helpful, and efficient. But in my interactions with the Hotel Mercante team, I sensed a sincerity and an unobtrusive desire to be of assistance that is beyond the call of duty. Early on (before I had even set foot in Vigan or met anyone there in person), I had been relieved and grateful for the prompt and kind email responses I got from Hotel Mercante while I was searching online for accommodation options. I had emailed other hotels, but the responses from HM (particularly, Solenn and Sofie, Front House Associates) were not only prompt but also written in the friendliest and most professional tone. They courteously and clearly answered all my email inquiries. They were also considerate enough to offer the best room-rate options available, which meant a lot to a 60-year-old solo traveler like me. I also had fun getting some quick lessons on basic Ilocano phrases from Stan (the night guard, who welcomed me when I arrived early in the morning) and Sean (front desk officer, though perhaps his position may be higher—I met him the day I was leaving). “Agyamanak, ading!” (Thank you, young man/woman) and “ag pagna pagna” (just strolling or walking around to relax and enjoy the sights) will, from now on, be part of the limited Ilocano vocabulary close to my heart. I am also grateful to Sarah (front desk), Steve (housekeeping), Paige (Cantina Mercante), Shea, Suzy, and others whose names I wasn’t able to get. For solo travelers and for families or groups, Hotel Mercante is value for your money. But most of all, it is value for your (even more precious) time and trust. It may not be the most popular or most expensive/trendy/classy hotel in Vigan, but all I really needed was a place for homey, clean, safe, quiet, reasonably priced and very conveniently located accommodations—with excellent service and heartwarming staff. And I definitely, thankfully, got all that at Hotel Mercante.

The hotel is located in the center of the ancient city, and the facilities are fairly complete, but compared with other big-name boutique hotels, the facilities are outdated. If it is fully renovated and a better management team is introduced, this location can definitely create the best hotel in Vigan. It can only be said that the decoration is not as good as Home Inn, the service level is not bad, and the English level of the service staff is relatively high. The breakfast is not a buffet, it is a la carte, the quality is not very good, the coffee is extremely bad, I failed the food and drink, and it needs to be greatly improved.

This was our second time to visit Vigan as a family and our first time to stay at Panadores De Vigan, and we are so very glad that we did! The staff are friendly and helpful from booking all the way to our departure. They even went out of their way to find out if the local coffee shop would be open since it was a holiday when we arrived. We were greeted with warm and friendly demeanor, and we were able to check-in earlier (1245PM). It's located near some of the popular tourist spots, restaurants yet it's quiet. We also did not hear any noise coming from the other rooms or guests. Our rooms were on the second floor. They were clean, pleasant, lots of room and complete with basic amenities. The bed was comfortable, and we had the best sleep during our stay. We had a minor issue with the bathroom, but it was immediately fixed. Our breakfast was served on time as requested. Our rooms were cleaned during our stay. Just a couple of minor improvements: The water pressure in the shower could be stronger and maybe have the bathroom door fixed (we had to push it really hard for it to close). Recommendation/Suggestion: Provide a water dispenser in the room for added comfort. Two water bottles were provided for free and refilled the next day, but it would be nicer to have access to a water dispenser inside the room rather than having to buy and carry water bottles from the store whenever we went out. We couldn't have chosen a better place to stay, and I definitely recommend them especially for families and big groups. By the way, they are right across the street from the famous First Sinangloa (they're open as early as 6AM). A few blocks from the public market where we bought bagnet and longganisa for our ”pasalubong”. The parking was a big plus! They have ample parking for their guests.

You have to be alert to spot the location of this hotel. Aside from a big sign with its name all you can see is an old house. You have to enter a gate at the back of the old house where you will find this hotel. The 24 hour reception desk is located at the foot of the steps leading to the rooms. Its more like an apartment complex with studio apartments The rooms are pretty basic and worth what we paid for which was below Php 2k.If you just want an inexpensive place to lie your head down after visiting Vigan this place might suit you.DONT EXPECT TOO MUCH!
