Hotel berhampiran Tarangotong beach, Ilocos Sur

Sarapan pagi yang baik.

Hotel is situated on top of the mountain so the climate is cooler. They have fantastic view of uncorrupted mountains and if you're lucky, you'll get to witness a sea of clouds. Place is clean, staff and owner are nice and we love their Sinampalukang Manok as well. Internet is a challenge in most places in Sagada. Net was down on our first night but the owner made sure to lend us a different wifi router. Sagada town proper is approximately 5 km away and it's a lovely walk if you're up to it. This place here is a winner. Reminders: -Globe data is very slow, not sure about other providers. -download movies bring books to kill time at night just in case net is down. - room is simple but spacious. Bring your own toiletries since they run out of these when we were there. - I didn't notice public transportations so im not sure how this will work for guests w/o private vehicle. Town proper is approx 5 km away. -During our visit, most of the restaurants in the town proper are closed. The staff can cook for the guests but the options are limited since tourism is not yet back to 100% at the time. - bring water heater so you can prepare coffee and instant noodles. Also make sure to have food. The hotel kitchen and the rest of the restaurants in the town proper close at around 7pm.

You have to be alert to spot the location of this hotel. Aside from a big sign with its name all you can see is an old house. You have to enter a gate at the back of the old house where you will find this hotel. The 24 hour reception desk is located at the foot of the steps leading to the rooms. Its more like an apartment complex with studio apartments The rooms are pretty basic and worth what we paid for which was below Php 2k.If you just want an inexpensive place to lie your head down after visiting Vigan this place might suit you.DONT EXPECT TOO MUCH!

This hotel is a MUSEUM. Beautiful paintings and other incredible art collections line the hallways. Staying here feels like living in an art museum. The staff is amazing as well! They are polite, friendly and helpful. They serve excellent breakfast. I had the best Filipino breakfast in Vigan. This is the best hotel in Vigan Heritage Village so far! I travelled solo, but I would recommend this hotel to couples, friends and families.

Hotel Mercante was such a great part of my fun, peaceful, safe, educational, and rejuvenating stay in Vigan (Jan. 29-31, 2024). I had been skeptical at first about the 4.5 (out of 5) average rating that the hotel has received so far from Trip Advisor reviewers. After all, there are many other more popular (higher-rated and understandably higher-priced) options for accommodations in the city. But having enjoyed the Hotel Mercante experience myself, I do recommend the place for no-fuss travelers like me, who simply want a safe, clean, quiet, and efficiently run hotel. More than the basic amenities, however, there is something truly commendable about the hotel’s staff and management, with their warmth, care, and professionalism. Of course, hotel employees are trained to smile and to be polite, helpful, and efficient. But in my interactions with the Hotel Mercante team, I sensed a sincerity and an unobtrusive desire to be of assistance that is beyond the call of duty. Early on (before I had even set foot in Vigan or met anyone there in person), I had been relieved and grateful for the prompt and kind email responses I got from Hotel Mercante while I was searching online for accommodation options. I had emailed other hotels, but the responses from HM (particularly, Solenn and Sofie, Front House Associates) were not only prompt but also written in the friendliest and most professional tone. They courteously and clearly answered all my email inquiries. They were also considerate enough to offer the best room-rate options available, which meant a lot to a 60-year-old solo traveler like me. I also had fun getting some quick lessons on basic Ilocano phrases from Stan (the night guard, who welcomed me when I arrived early in the morning) and Sean (front desk officer, though perhaps his position may be higher—I met him the day I was leaving). “Agyamanak, ading!” (Thank you, young man/woman) and “ag pagna pagna” (just strolling or walking around to relax and enjoy the sights) will, from now on, be part of the limited Ilocano vocabulary close to my heart. I am also grateful to Sarah (front desk), Steve (housekeeping), Paige (Cantina Mercante), Shea, Suzy, and others whose names I wasn’t able to get. For solo travelers and for families or groups, Hotel Mercante is value for your money. But most of all, it is value for your (even more precious) time and trust. It may not be the most popular or most expensive/trendy/classy hotel in Vigan, but all I really needed was a place for homey, clean, safe, quiet, reasonably priced and very conveniently located accommodations—with excellent service and heartwarming staff. And I definitely, thankfully, got all that at Hotel Mercante.

We just came back from our visit to Vigan, Ilocos Sur. I thought to write this review before I start to get busy with work and home chores:-) The whole staff starting with Jackie, Jo, and all others there, they made our stay like our true home. They are warm people, attentive to our needs, caring, and respectful. The Hotel kept their place clean and sanitized maintaining the historic cultural appearance of the place. They have warm water for bath and provided us with clean towels, and complete toiletries. Breakfast is included in the daily charge. If you want to ride a ”calesa,” Jo did a good job in finding us a beautiful horse (his name is ”Castanio”), sturdy and strong. Hotel Felicidad provided us with a list of places to see. The Hotel has its own big parking lot that is secured. They, too, have their own transportation that caters to tourists (upon request) to take them to shop around the Calle Crisologo sections. Their wi-fi has a strong signal. Not sure of a business center since we were there for a pleasure visit. It's best to visit the ”Calle Crisologo” in the late afternoon till the evening. The beauty of the historic houses reveals even more their meaning. Try to visit the Bell Tower, do not miss it! I highly recommend Hotel Felicidad to all. Its proximity is best to tourist attractions, restaurants, churches, bakeries, and many more.

The Vegan Plaza Hotel is situated in the best location - at the beginning of Calle Chrisilogo street. It is convenient and easy to get around to any place from here. The kalesa (horse and carriage) and the tricycles are located right in front of the hotel. The fountain is a 7 min walk from here and an 8 min ride to the bus station. The hotel is very clean and well maintained. The staff are friendly and helpful. Anything that you requested was seen to immediately and with a smile. Breakfast was ok, there should be more variety. They provide in room massage which was great. They have 2 restaurants which provides a a variety of local dishes. Bathroom is little small in size, however, the shower was awesome. This is a very good hotel and I would certainly stay here again when I come to Vigan. Wonderful stay.

Me and a friend stayed there for one day and we thought we wont need to buy a toothpaste and soap but we had to coz they only provided one tiny toothpaste and one tiny tube of 3 in 1 shampoo/soap/conditioner. Not enough for two persons who will take a bath twice a day and brush their teeth twice also. Their blanket is small also for two thin body adults. Its like their blanket is only for 1 person same with their toothpaste and 3in1 soap. If you want another blanket you have to pay

One of 3 hotels in Vigan that was recommended by family members, this was the only one that had availability. So we hoped/prayed it would be decent. Upon arrival, we were disappointed with its distance in proximity to the town center. Its grounds and curb appeal did not resemble its online appearance. We received a warm and friendly greeting and had much needed help with our bags as there were no elevators. Our standard double was very small; we moved to another room because the a/c was not very good. Our 2nd room a/c was very good, but had a musty smell. There are no in-room safes, refrigerator or ice machines. They prolly need to do a room inspection before releasing room because I had to call down for TP & towels. You should upgrade to include wash cloths, bedside lamps that works, a better wall mirror and bathroom fixtures that are not rusty. My kid's first standard twin room was unacceptable because it was dirty and had no toilet seat. They were moved to a standard triple, but I requested another move because we needed stronger WiFi for remote work. Their third room, the following day, was much better. There is a restaurant on site that is limited in menu options and availability. We appreciated the filtered water cooler availability. Overall, the staff was patient, kind and very accommodating. They did try very hard to make sure we were comfortable and addressed our concerns. Shout out to Rush, who is awesome and the reason I increased my review from 1 to 3 stars It is because of Rush and the staff that I do recommend Hotel Metro Vigan to anyone who can overlook my concerns that I mentioned and doesn't require a safe, and/or additional hotel amenities.

it was raining hard when we reached this place and the parking area was starting to get flooded. there was no staff to welcome the guests or offer umbrellas to shield us from the downpour. the hotel is not within the city of vigan. we were ushered to our room by one hotel helper who assisted us with our luggages. courteous and jolly guy. food was typically done the ilocano way. i'm used to the taste and the way it was presented. what i'm very particular about was the repetitive banana being offered for dessert, either boiled, caramelised or served very ripe. our towels were never replaced for the 4D/3N we stayed. they just assumed we didn't care since we didn't bother to request for a new set. the telephone in our room has no dial tone. the bathroom exudes an unpleasant smell at a particular hour at night. but overall, we felt welcomed as we stayed longer. we were allowed beyond the time to continue with our socials. the staff just let us be while singing our hearts out. they were very kind and understanding when we ask for small favors from time to time. might stay here again next time.
