FFazar ZamanI stayed at Z Garden Hotel between 28th Nov and 1st Dec. My stay was absolutely amazing. I arrived on an early morning flight, and despite check in being from 3pm, Remy re assured me that they will do their best to accommodate me within a short time. I left my luggage with reception and went to have some breakfast. By the time I returned my room was prepared and I was blown away at the hospitality of the staff as Remy realised upon check in that it was my birthday a few days before and the staff prepared my room with balloons and decor which left me speechless. The staff at the hotel really epitomise the hospitality and kindness of the people of Philippines. Every day my room would be left spotless and as a solo traveller it had everything I could have needed. Modern, stylish room and the bed was so comfortable. I generally struggle to sleep in Hotels but the bed was really comfortable and a warm space to relax. I was greeted by every staff member that passed by from the reception team, to housekeeping to the security guard at night. Any advice I needed or transport arranged, Remy took absolute care of everything as though I was her own guest and it really leaves a beautiful memory of my travels. It is in a brilliant location, in a quiet relaxing space just a short distance away from the lively scene of El Nido. I hope to return to El Nido in future with my family and without hesitation I will choose to stay at Z Garden Hotel again.
Thank you Remy and the entire team for making it a memorable experience and I hope to see you all very soon!
GGuest UserThis hotel is absolutely amazing for the price. I'll start by saying there's a free airport transfer. You just need to write to the hotel in advance with your flight number and names. The breakfast buffet is incredible. There's a pool and a spa. Everything is very beautiful and clean.
NNikolai EfimenkoThis hotel is really, really great, I loved it! Even though I stayed in a shared four-person room, it didn't bother me at all because almost every day (from morning till evening) we were out on excursions or somewhere else. The staff are friendly and caring, rooms are cleaned daily, and the showers and toilets are communal (but there are also a few separate stalls just for women). The breakfasts are delicious and varied – I would fly back to the Philippines again just for these breakfasts! Because here, I only had truly good food three times: first in Cebu, second at the hotel's breakfast, and third at an Italian restaurant in El Nido, that's it! In the shared room, you get a towel, a locker with a lock, and a large bed (unlike other similar hotels). I'm thrilled!
GGuest UserThe Underwater Garden Resort has a unique location on the Baquit Island only 10 minutes boat trip to Coron .Foots in the water! Boatshuttle in hotelrate includet.
Very quiet at night and dayover only some boats passing at a good distance.
The restaurant is OK with place for improvement.
Fishh-Sinigang and grilled fish are delicious. The personell is very gentle, kiind and attentive. They are trying to improve and learn everyday.
Thank you for you hospitality!
AAnonymous UserThe location is very convenient since it was just in front of Robinsons Palawan. Check in process was smooth as the staff already checked us in prior to arriving. The complimentary airport transfer was good. The driver was on time. Just had a few hiccups when I initially reserved for a complimentary airport transfer as the socmed admin seems puzzled at first. But just a minor flaw. The room was huge. The complimentary breakfast was excellent especially it’s a buffet. Extra stars for being flexible, was able to give us a packed breakfast since we are leaving early morning. Extra stars also for the helpful and proactive staff. Overall, it was a great stay and would book again when I go back to Puerto Princesa.
TThat girl abroadI was honestly a bit disappointed with this resort. When you see the word “resort” and pay resort prices, you expect a certain standard. Unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to that.
The bed only had a thin sheet with no proper bedding, there was no water provided in the room, and parts of the property felt quite run down with visible rust. The bathroom, especially the shower area, could really use a deep clean. Breakfast was okay, nothing special. There were four different WiFi networks, but none of them worked properly and the connection was very slow. The staff did warn me about this in advance.
That being said, the staff were absolutely amazing. Reception went above and beyond by helping with my large bags, doing my laundry, organizing tours and transport, and assisting with everything I needed. Truly a chef’s kiss to the team. They were the highlight of my stay.
With some upgrades and better maintenance, this place could match the price they’re charging. Right now, it’s the staff that make the experience worthwhile.
MmoahmadEL nido suites Location and the hotel facilities are the best.
The staff was helpful and room was good. I was able to book massage, tour and motor bike from the reception staff. Breakfast did let me down but still not bad. Bus terminal is next to it and the el nido public market.
Vanila beach, lio beach and nacpan beach is not far. Especially old town is around 10 minutes of walking distance from the hotel for the night life and for good restaurants.
Overall i would definitely recommend this hotel.
SSophia The ExplorerPros:
-Very accommodating and polite staff
-Clean rooms and common areas
-Convenient paid airport pickup and drop-off (₱1,100 pickup via hotel van, ₱600 drop-off via taxi arranged by the hotel)
-Well-maintained swimming pool (approx. 4 ft deep)
-Lounge sunbeds by the pool overlooking both the pool and the beach
-In-house restaurant and small bar available
-Housekeeping is attentive and regularly checks if cleaning is needed
-Comfortable bed; towels and linens smelled and felt clean
-Beach towels available upon request at reception
-Beach view is nice, though only accessible at high tide (around 6:00 PM)
Cons:
-Very isolated location; nothing to see or do outside the hotel
-Free hotel shuttle to Robinsons Mall is helpful but limited to scheduled times
-Breakfast is not worth purchasing if not included in the room
First two days were buffet-style and okay
Last two days were plated and disappointing (small portions, food served cold, long waiting time)
-Air-conditioning in our room was a bit noisy, which was inconvenient since I was working
-Limited activities within the hotel aside from the pool
-Restaurant food and drinks are quite pricey; we relied on Grab deliveries most of the stay
Suggestions for Improvement:
Keep breakfast buffet-style permanently to improve food quality, temperature, and waiting time
Improve coordination of breakfast orders
Consider adding more in-house activities or more affordable dining options
Final Thoughts:
A clean and comfortable hotel with excellent staff, best for guests who plan to relax within the property. Improvements in breakfast service and minor facility upgrades would greatly enhance the overall experience.
AAlexey VerbitskyA nice location, but our room on the ground floor was dark and damp, we constantly caught a cold because of the air conditioner, there is no balcony, only access to the mini pool that resembled a mini paddock, it did not work for heating, there is no breakfast here, it's a pity that there was no room for us on the second floor, which affected the vacation in this place we were not satisfied because he is good in the photo but not very good in reality + all these disadvantages that no one wrote about.
Next time, I'll choose a much more comfortable place to vacation.
GGuest UserEverything is old, dead, dirty. Ants, a large cockroach and a mouse were on the 2nd floor!!!
The location was right next to the pier, there was hot water. Everything else was quiet horror, the air conditioning did not work well.
