So accommodating si mommy. We arrived at 1am yet Sobrang maasikso. 🥰❤️ Will surely be back so soon 👏👏👏

We had a memorable and comfortable stay indeed! Thanks to the accomodating and friendly staff as always. Will definitely be coming back.😀

I love this place. I love the villa where we enjoyed the place. The crew were all accomodating and the cable car is amazing going down to their restaurant. It is paradise for me. I love the set up and I love the cozy units..It is expensive but it is worth it. Try visiting the place it is gorgeous. I recommend it.

The staffs are friendly and easy to talk to. It's perfect if you don't like going out since they have a kitchen and refrigerator provided. However, there is no elevator, so it's better to request a ground-floor room if you have health problems that make it difficult to use the stairs.

Charming new hotel in Vigan. This hotel was just recently built. Very friendly staff, very helpful. A pleasant stay with true Filipino hospitality. The owners are very accommodating. Take it from me, who have travelled extensively. You will definitely enjoy your stay here.

Came here with family in March 2023. The property itself is beautiful. It’s rich in art and history, something I truly appreciated and found one-of-a-kind, especially at a hotel. Service was good. Front desk staff were helpful, and there is security at the front entrance at all times. The room itself was cozy - traditional design with modern features. There is not much of a view from our room, it seems to just be the way the building was designed. We had breakfast at the hotel, which was good, although options were basic. The view during breakfast was beautiful, it was poolside and near the gorgeous staircase. Pool is smaller than I expected. My question/concern during my stay was, where were all the other hotel guests? I felt as though there were very few guests at the hotel, considering my party was the only one having breakfast at the cafe. I don’t believe I ran into other guests during my stay as well. A whole dining hall was dark and closed off the whole day. This confused me as this hotel is considerably the best and most beautiful hotel in Vigan.

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.

it was raining hard when we reached this place and the parking area was starting to get flooded. there was no staff to welcome the guests or offer umbrellas to shield us from the downpour. the hotel is not within the city of vigan. we were ushered to our room by one hotel helper who assisted us with our luggages. courteous and jolly guy. food was typically done the ilocano way. i'm used to the taste and the way it was presented. what i'm very particular about was the repetitive banana being offered for dessert, either boiled, caramelised or served very ripe. our towels were never replaced for the 4D/3N we stayed. they just assumed we didn't care since we didn't bother to request for a new set. the telephone in our room has no dial tone. the bathroom exudes an unpleasant smell at a particular hour at night. but overall, we felt welcomed as we stayed longer. we were allowed beyond the time to continue with our socials. the staff just let us be while singing our hearts out. they were very kind and understanding when we ask for small favors from time to time. might stay here again next time.
