We reached this hotel by car from a Paranaque, Metro Manila hotel in 84 minutes on a rainy weekday at an offpeak time. Travelling by bus or from other areas of Metro Manila, or at busier times, would take longer. This is a very different Holiday Inn as unlike most, Lima Park has extensive banqueting and convention facilitites. It also apparently frequently hosts wedding receptions. Check in was instant. Our delightful room was spacious and had two Queen beds along with a roomy wardrobe that had bathrobes, a safety deposit box and slippers. There was a good desk lit by a lamp plus a TV that had a large range of channels including English speaking ones. The room overall had good lighting, extremely effective airconditioning and properly working WiFi. The Queen bed was fairly hard due to Asians' preference but I slept well. Tea, coffee and drinking water were supplied. The shower over bath was complemented by effective Soak shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The bath towels were just that: an excellent size. A lunch at its Plum restaurant was excellent with the BBQ pork a standout. Service from supervisor Ruth and manager George was unobtrusive but great. Since a previous visit about five years ago, the hotel gardens have further improved as you cannot now see the fence. There is a gym and a terrific large pool with a separate children's pool. As on only one of our days was it sunny, I did not use the pool as tge water was cold. About five minutes' walk from the hotel is the near new Lipa outlet centre with an excellent Robinsons supermarket and a wide range of dining experiences plus clothing and other shops such as H&M and even a PowerMac shop. All the major banks are represented, so easy to withdraw cash. General Manager Marisol plus her boss Mr Bong were very pleasant. I noted how drivers Allan and Noel interacted seamlessly with other guests such as those attending a shooters' tournament. As one example of the great hotel service, laundry left late afternoon was delivered to our room by 1400 hours the next day. This hotel delivers good service and has pleasing rooms plus an excellent pool. It makes for a very good staycation for Metro Manila residents.
