Montebello Villa Hotel Cebu
Montebello Villa Hotel in Cebu is a charming, green oasis tucked right in the heart of the city. We stayed here for four days before heading to Bohol, and it was the perfect stopover. The hotel has a vintage feel with beautifully landscaped gardens and an old-world charm—ideal if you appreciate historic properties. That said, be prepared for smaller rooms with slightly outdated furnishings and equipment. But that’s part of its character! Breakfast was absolutely outstanding—great variety including both Asian and European options. Fresh breads, pastries, waffles, cheeses—all delicious and well-prepared. Dining on the terrace by the pool under shady trees made it even more enjoyable. The swimming pools are clean, with both large and small options, perfect for relaxing on a lounger. Location-wise, it’s central and very convenient for reaching major attractions. A popular shopping mall is just a 10-minute taxi ride away. While nearby malls aren’t particularly modern or exciting, the hotel’s surroundings are peaceful and authentic, giving you a real sense of old-school Cebu. Staff are incredibly courteous—greeted us with a welcome drink and available 24/7. Throughout our stay, everything ran smoothly, which is rare in Philippine hotels where minor issues and communication gaps often pop up. Here, none of that happened. For a short 2-3 day visit, this hotel offers exceptional value and a truly memorable experience. Highly recommended!
88th Avenue
Staying at 88th Avenue Hotel was a great experience overall. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from Cebu IT-Park, with plenty of cafes, shopping malls, and restaurants within easy reach. The studio room is well-designed and thoughtfully furnished, offering a cozy and stylish atmosphere. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night’s sleep. The only minor downside was the shower water being a bit cold at times, which could be improved with better temperature control. Also, there’s a Korean grocery store right at the entrance that’s a bit pricey, but it’s convenient if you need quick essentials. Despite these small issues, the hotel delivers excellent value and convenience, and I’d definitely stay here again.
Stacia Hotel
Stacia Hotel stands out as the best option in the area. The room was spacious and the air conditioning worked perfectly, keeping the space cool and comfortable throughout our stay. The staff were friendly, attentive, and always ready to help—great hospitality that made a real difference. Breakfast was decent but not my favorite; the beef was overcooked, almost crunchy like chips, which didn’t suit my taste. There was also an issue with the toilet’s flushing system—it didn’t work properly. Despite these minor drawbacks, the overall experience was excellent. Great value for money, clean rooms, and a convenient location. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to others looking for a reliable, well-located hotel in Cebu.

This hotel exceeded all my expectations! Despite the affordable price, the room was spacious and spotlessly clean—truly impressive. The air conditioning worked perfectly, charging devices was hassle-free, and the shower delivered strong water pressure that made for a refreshing experience. I loved being able to enjoy the pool until late at night, and the private beach was absolutely stunning—the ocean was crystal clear, and renting a kayak added such a fun touch to the day.

But honestly, what stood out most were the staff—they were incredibly kind, welcoming, and always smiling. It felt like staying with friends rather than just guests. I genuinely can’t wait to come back to Cebu just to stay here again. Next time, I’m planning to make it a full-day retreat focused entirely on enjoying everything the hotel has to offer.
