Hotel in zona Sta. Ana Shrine Parish, Davao

I am on my Vismin leg of trainings and Davao is my last for this week. Had a great, smooth time in Tacloban, Cebu, Bohol and this last seminar in this hotel have been very challenging so far. At the front desk, I requested for lower floor, which I normally do (due personal traumatic experience which I do not need to explain) and after a series of ”please” thank God, Kate of Front Desk stepped in and found us a room at 6th which will be ready only by 5pm. It was turned over around 6pm. In preparation for our Monday seminar, we coordinated with Rose of Banquet to ocular the place as we have a specific layout to follow that will be good for classroom set up, group dynamics and dining. When we arrived at Ruby function room, linen staff Cory was there arranging for our seminar on Monday so we rendered help in lay outing the tables and chairs, projector screen. When we had to coordinate with the technical, we requested an HDMI longer than 1 meter so laptop can rest on the tech table. Sure they have a longer one but with additional charge of P300/day. When I asked for wireless mic to be used since the activity will involve passing around of microphone among the participants, guess what? Yes, an additional P800/mic/day will be charged! So with the 3 days seminar and 1 week stay that we pre booked and paid , these little requests do not come free. I do not want to ruin my Davao stay because I am an avid fan of our former President Duterte and only have the highest respects for his place. I hope to find some pleasant things from this hotel for the remaining days of my stay here to compensate for the ugly start. Time to activate the Vision Mission which is in every room of the hotel and not just left on the brochure. A simple greeting, some genuine smiles mean a lot to every customer. So far the only staff who has a ready smile and genuinely asks how he can be of service is Jaypee, service crew of Cafe Frances. He takes time to talk with the customers and ask how they are doing and recommends the best dish. Food is great and reasonably priced -- large servings and delicious! As for the edifice, needs repairs and refurbs. We had to call in help for the A/C and busted light bulb.

Questo hotel di 70 anni superava certamente le mie aspettative. Il processo di check-in è stato semplice e semplice, quindi mi sono trovato rapidamente nella mia stanza. Questa stanza è stata ben arredata e ristrutturata con tutte le attrezzature standard necessarie. Il letto molto comodo, con letti e mutandine molto puliti, era molto pulito, ma un paio di interruttori di luce a bordo erano rotti. Il bagno era molto pulito, con un'ampia fornitura di asciugamani e tovaglie. La zona di pranzo dove si crea un buffet era fredda, che odorava bene e non c'erano insetti volanti intorno. Il personale era molto utile e accogliente. Servizio molto attento. Cibo ragionevole a prezzi ragionevoli sia per il menu buffet che per la cart. Avete goduto il bar dell'hotel a notte. La luna blu. Bevande e karaoke. Non c'è piscina. C'è un grande giardino dove si può mangiare al fresco. In generale una buona esperienza.

Been booked several times here at Red planet davao and it's a good and nice place to stay and rest... Well definitely come and book here next time 😊

It's a new hotel in town.  The staff were kind and polite. They were very considerate with my  every request and they were very prompt. Filtered hot and cold vendi is accessible  , its  a money saver.  If your are particular with cleanliness I recommend this hotel, it is super clean.  Fast food like McDo and Jollibee are walking distance . Though The SPMC hospital is just next to it but it didn't bother me .So far there were no noise annoyance  during my stay. Though it's a little distant  from shopping malls . The SPMC hospital is just next to it but it didn't bother me .So far there were no noise annoyance  during my stay. The hotel  is located at the back of MCDo it  could be much presentable if the drive way  were clean , I saw dump area along way . I may say,  as constructive criticism  the outside view  from where I was  roomed   wasn't that nice ,  I can see the local residence  cooking and eating their meals  outside . I can understand it but   if I am a foreigner it won't be favorable.   To stay again in this hotel would be in my list. Thank you for your service.

Uno dei migliori hotel a Davao. Il mio fidanzato e io ci siamo trasferiti qui per 12 notti e lo amiamo! Il direttore era molto amichevole e ospitante, così come il personale. Avevamo un momento molto memorabile in questo hotel. Fino alla prossima volta Park Inn Grazie tante!

We were given a room on a floor where they were doing some renovations I believe cause it smelled strongly of thinner. You should not do that next time, least they can do is give a room on a different floor. I did report it but nothing was done. Cleanliness was good. Buffet breakfast was really good. My kind of breakfast. Service was good. Although our room was not really prepared based on out booking cause we booked for 3 people but then everything inside the room was just for 2., I still had to request for lacking ones which took them a really long time to deliver as well. 😅

I stayed in Blue Lotus Hotel in July 2023 for one night, although I frequently visited their Sky View Restaurant. I had a great experience. The room was quite spacious, approximately 30 sq metres. The elevator is one of a kind where you do not need to touch it but simply use your RFID-enabled hotel keycard. I believe this was for sanitizing measures taken by the hotel management since the pandemic era. The room has qiblah direction on the ceiling, and they provide Muslim travellers with prayer mats as well as Holy Quran. Very thoughtful touch since none of the hotels in Davao City provide this in their room. The housekeeping staff were also attentive and it took less than 10 minutes for them to deliver the iron & board. The hotel has a Malaysian Chef, Chef Shah who cooks authentic Malaysian dishes like sate, murtabak, chicken curry, daging masak hitam and nasi beriani.

We used to frequent at GoHotels (other branches) many years ago so I know that it’s a reputable hotel. But this time, COME ON. They renovated the exterior and lobby of GH Lanang to look new but the rooms are way too old. I paid 4,100+ for 2 nights and it was not worth it - TERRIBLE at that. I didn’t sleep well because of the room state and avoided using the toilet and shower as much as I could because just look at the photos and be the judge. Not only did it look bad, it also smelled bad. On my 2nd morning, I kindly requested for room service but the staff informed me that they only do room service on a guests’s 3rd day but I was only on a 3D2N stay so I figured I wasn’t qualified. I went on and requested that the CR at least be sprayed with air freshener because it was smelly (I literally told them it was smelly). They agreed this time so I expected it to have been done upon my return in the evening but unfortunately it wasn’t (still smelly when I arrived) and I didn’t bother to request again. There was no exhaust fan in the toilet - only a small window that didn’t help at all with the smell up to my last day. Note that there is no “main” CR door - only 2 separate glass doors, one for the toilet and one for the shower. So expect to smell your own poop in the entire because the doors would not hold off the smell for you, lol. You can see the sink from your bed because it was just… there. The only redeeming factor of that room was the duvet and 2 of the pillows (the pillow cases of the other 2 were old and cheap). Other small things I should note: in-room phone wasn’t working so I had to google the number and call the front desk from my mobile phone. I borrowed a flat iron and was quickly brought up to me (thank you, staff). I also requested for a towel change (just 1; there were 2) on my first night because the towels were giving off this weird smell. They quickly changed it (thank you again) but it smelled the same so maybe it was the detergent being used that smelled weird. I let it go. One of the bedside lamps had small stains that looked like blood, which freaked me out NGL. Look, I wasn’t expecting a luxurious stay. I’m a frequent traveller who even stays at smaller, unfamiliar hotels when on long trips to smaller and farther towns. But this was way too bad. I’ve stayed at many rooms like that of what I experienced with GH but I only paid 800-1,000/night so who am I to complain? With GoHotels, I expected more because it’s a Robinson’s property. Heck, Gokongwei group had an advertisement at the lobby so I expected a decent stay at bare minimum! With that experience, I will NEVER stay at ANY GoHotels again and will probably avoid Summit hotels too because it was being advertised at the lobby and I don’t wanna risk paying more money for another sub-par experience. P.S. I cannot comprehend how others have recently rated GH Lanang with 5 stars LOL

Le porte nel CR non hanno chiusura, le luci sono così dimmi, le piscine non sono pulite e non sono ben mantenute.Si può vedere i sedimenti e le sporche sono posizionati nella parte inferiore della piscina e le tovaglie sembrano vecchie e sembrano sgradevoli..

Il personale si trovava in un posto molto pulito solo un po 'di preoccupazioni che riguardano con l'ordine di cibo che non hanno servizio in camera quando il tempo che io sono lì spero che si ripara la prossima volta che io resterò ma tutto in ogni luogo è stato sorprendente facile accesso all'aeroporto .
