Comfortable bed, good international breakfast, lots of self-serve things like using a communal water bottle to refill smaller room bottles, they also have a couple clothes drivers that are free to use. Wi-fi was exceptional but they don't have tvs in the room. I really like the ceiling fans and the aircon which are always cool. Free parking and they can arrange airport transfer for I think 300 pesos per person. I was doing my YT vlog daily and had great service @margaritasinparadise I made a video just on my room because I was so impressed. The location is fantastic for going out in the evenings or finding easy eating. I will definitely be back.
”The Watergate Hotel in Butuan exceeded all expectations! From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in an atmosphere of refined luxury. The impeccable service, stunning rooms, and exquisite dining made our stay truly unforgettable. A perfect blend of elegance and comfort.”
Pros: Big rooms, newr town, clean room.
Cons: noisy beside the street, water tank motor near our room which creates noise every hour. Bidet and flash of toilet broken. No generator in case there is brownout.
Pool under maintenance, no lift cause it was broken and they put us on 3rd floor. Aircon is loud was awake till 2am. Had breakfast at 8am and everything is cold🥺💔
If you are solo travelers and for one bedroom room rate. You can’t get enought rest as music from outaide store unitop will bug you the entier day and noise from tricycle.
Excellent hotel location, slightly away from the main hustle and bustle, yet close and convenient enough. The hotel provides a free shuttle to the center, with a tricycle constantly running. The grounds are magnificent, with a beautiful, well-kept garden and a private beach that is regularly cleaned and maintained. Free SUP boards are available! The breakfasts are decent and quite varied. Upon request (for an additional fee), the hotel arranged our room for our anniversary. Overall, only positive impressions. Everything was superb!
A comfortable and clean place for solo travelers. The location is excellent, and the service is top-notch. While the amenities are quite simple, the overall value for money is still great. I’d definitely stay here again for a short trip.
This hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. Comfort, cleanliness, service, and atmosphere were all excellent. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and pleasant stay!
The resort is spacious and we needed to ride a golf cart to get to the room. We could always walk but the pathway to the rooms are not ideal for luggages. The room we booked was great and had a smart TV (but you need your own credentials to log-in). It was also spacious and cozy. The pool is not that big but was good enough. The kiddie pool is nice since it’s not that deep and the water slide is a nice touch. The kids playground was also something that kids would enjoy. Wifi is also strong in all areas. The only hiccup in our stay was the breakfast buffet. They ran out of most food even though it was still ~8AM and refill took a bit longer. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would visit again soon.
