I traveled solo to Tagbilaran for business. The Metrocentre was recommended to me. Upon check in, I was requested to make a 500 peso deposit. The front desk clerk said it was for ”incidentals” and would be refunded upon check out. I asked what was meant by ”incidentals” and she said it refered to any other charges I made on my account, such as food at the coffee shop. I was billeted in a standard room, which could have accommodated two people. It was very comfortable. Bed mattress and pillows were nice and firm. The aircondition unit was working very efficiently and kept me cold, which was what I wanted. The bathroom was clean and spacious enough. I felt a little bit claustrophobic though because the window of my room was a small one and was heavily draped. Even if I drew the drapes open, the view to the outside was obscured by some kind of machine, probably an aircon unit. Amenities in the room included free bottled water (2 bottles), two cookie packs, shampoo and soap. There were nice thick bath towels and rubber slippers for room use. There were a lot of lights, I noticed. Some of the light switches were hidden by the pillows on the bed. I didn't see them at first and had to call the front desk to find out how to switch a couple of the overhead lights off. The room had a nice flat screen TV and a refrigerator. Wifi is best downstairs at the hotel lobby. Signal is weak in the rooms. My booking came with free plated breakfast, a choice of American or Filipino. In terms of serving size, it's pretty decent. Breakfast is served as early as 5 am and so that is really, really convenient if you have to get out early. The free airport shuttle was also another convenient service offered by the hotel. The hotel coffee shop is pleasant. Service was friendly and accommodating. My hosts, who chose this hotel for me, said that they chose this hotel because it was safe. I would go back to this hotel.

Best choice for this price. Room was small but cozy, the best budget hotel we had during this trip in Phillipines (we had three ones before). Rooftop terrace is perfect, we take once our meal to eat it in the evening and we enjoy it. The location was comfortable for our needs as well.

Me and my wife stayed at site. It was very confortable and clean..shower went really bad, almost didn't. That was only bad thing of the stay! We chose this hostel as base camp for one day trip at Bohol and enyoied two nights in there. Recommended if you don't mind location in the busy town and bad running shower.

This is the best place to stay in Bohol. Everything is superb specially the FRONT DESK guy who is very helpful and friendly and will taking care of you if anything you need. His like working in a five star hotel. The food preparation is superb. It’s very recommendable place to stay trust me. Will be going back there. We check in 8/8/22 and check out 8/10/22.

We only stayed at the lodge for one night but I would have loved to have stayed here for longer. The lodge and grounds are so quaint and quirky and the staff are so lovely and welcoming - Gloria even brought us flowers for our room when we arrived (she called herself a romantic)! PROS -Location: 10 min walk from the ferry port, supermarkets and tricycles nearby, felt safe and secure -Grounds: the accommodation is a large mansion with a shaded garden area and lots of seating areas to relax in apart from your room, and meet others -Good WIFI -Shared bathroom: Cleaned throughout the day, showers with good pressure and warm water, towels provided -Our twin room: clean, comfortable, enough space, AC, affordable price -Staff: Helpful and friendly staff, possible to organise tours via the lodge -Food: Yummy Breakfast with vegan options available all day for 100ish pesos. In the evenings there is a BBQ and karaoke available if requested (but the lodge is quiet from 11pm) CONS -None: definitely stay here!!

One of my favorite vacations of all time was a trip to Bohol I made with my wife and two kids waaay back in 2007. We stayed at the Bohol Bee Farm and Dumaluan Beach Resort and I had a grand time at both places, some hiccups notwithstanding. I've been back there a number of times since, but always on business, and never really staying long enough to make an impression on me. Also, both times were before I got onto tripadvisor. Last week, though, I went to Bohol again for the first time in six years, and this time I was there from Monday all the way through Friday, as I had quite a bit of work to do. Again, this was about business, not pleasure, so I definitely was not expecting anything other than a place to rest my head at night, but even then the experience of staying at Arabelle Suites proved to be a distinctly unpleasant one, The bathroom, for one thing, was the kind I really don't like, with a shower area that was not at all separated from the rest of the bathroom, whether by a divider or a curtain. The water pressure in the bidet was depressingly weak, and worst of all, I left the hotel with a boil just under my butt, and given the fact that the only toilet I used for number two the entire time I was in Bohol was at that hotel, and given that I had NEVER had a boil on my butt at ANY time in the past prior to this, I think it's quite reasonable to say that the hotel's sanitation practices leave quite a bit to be desired. Speaking of which, the tiny swimming pool was disgusting. It may have had enough chlorine to burn my eyes out, but the water was still filthy with particulate matter, and it was basically impossible to move so much as a meter ahead without hitting a dead floating insect. The lobby wifi was the only wifi that worked properly; even though I saw a router blinking on the floor where I stayed, in all the five days I stayed there I was never once able to connect to it despite the fact that it was supposedly ”open.” Worse still, the lobby wifi couldn't even make it into the conference room that was less than two feet away. Also, this may not have been a matter of direct concern to me, but with steep stairs, no elevator, and no bedrooms on the ground floor, this hotel is a positive nightmare for persons with disabilities, and it isn't much of a picnic for elderly people either. The food was all right, but not great. It irked me that they didn't have any brewed coffee, and that they didn't actually have coffee cups but rather served the coffee in soup bowls. This wasn't a big thing, but on top of everything else it was really just annoying. The saving grace of this place was the service. It wasn't great, but the staff were always polite and accommodating. Still, I don't particularly feel like giving them good marks for doing something they were obviously supposed to do, especially since they've failed on so many other counts.

very poor experience during our stay - wish we booked with another hotel, but had no choice as other hotels were fully-booked very poorly maintained facilities in the room terrible smelling toilets toilet bowl not flushing well rusty/dirty shower heads / bidets / pipes rooms full of flying insects stained curtains airconditioning too noisy breakfast very ordinary and very limited choices staff were generally polite, but didn't really fix the issues we raised for the room we booked I would definitely not book there again. my whole family, kids included, share the same sentiments. feels awful to give this review, but it has to be said so management does something to improve its facilities and also avoid Bohol getting a bad rap from an utterly poor experience at Bohol Tropics

Twas a good stay near to my business meetings area
