Title: Budget hotels Post by: capt david on December 05, 2001, 05:00:00 AM My girlfriend lives in Mandaue. When I arrive after many hours of travel, I don't want any hassel. Can someone give me the name of a budget hotel on Mactan where I can stay for a night or two, 15$-$40. I can then find somthing on the beach myself, unless someone has some ideas there too. I have heard Eddies, in Cebu is nice, but it seems out of the way. Thanks again Capt david

Mactan isn't a good place for budget hotels all the rip off so called five star hotels are there. A budget hotel in the Philippines should cost no more than P500 to P800 maybe a little more in big citys. Does she work at the computer chip place? I would HIGHLY recommend going over to Siquijor to the Coral Cay Resort ran by Dave & Hellen Very nice! and they have Budget rooms for around P600. Humabdos Get the book it will answer all your questions The Coral Cay is listed there with a cell number.

The Shang-ri-la is a very nice hotel on the beach. A year ago they were running a promo rate of $50 a night for Filipinos. Your girlfriend can get you registered at the promo price. Normal price is about $100-125, so $50 is a great deal if it is offered. Waterfront hotel near the airport should be nice if you just want to fly in and go right to a nice hotel and sleep. It is about $50 a night also. Of course there are cheaper places to stay, but many tend to be noisy, smelly, or uncomfortable. If it were me, I would book a nice place to stay and rest until I learned my way around. Don |
