Hotel berhampiran Aemilianum College, Bandar Sorsogon

The Hotel St. Ellis has the best breakfast buffet I've found anywhere, compared to at least a dozen hotels in the U.S. It also has a small but wonderful swimming pool, very good service, and a terrific shower. The biggest negative is that it provides absolutely no written instructions for operating the air conditioning, the TV, the Wifi, and the lights. It provides just one room key, no matter how many people are staying in the room. The air conditioning goes off at night, and can be restarted only by standing on a chair and pressing the button, but they don't tell you that. My wife and I suffered from overheating on the first night. Operating the TV requires pressing 2 or 3 buttons. The room has a power key -- a plastic card that must be inserted on a slot to get any electricity. I had to ask a staff member to connect by phone by WiFi on the ground floor and again on the 3rd floor, because they have 2 different systems. It took my wife and me a full day to figure everything out. The other family members, in another room, never did figure out the air conditioning, and suffered through all 3 nights. It would take the hotel staff less than an hour to write out all these instructions on a single page and print a copy for each room, but they don't bother. If they did, I would give the hotel 4 and a half stars. Other members of my family were so confused by the lack of instructions that they gave the hotel just 3 stars. Their other complaint was that the walls on the stairway are in serious need of painting and repair, but this didn't really bother me. Please, Hotel St. Ellis: get off your butts and write out the instructions!

Took a 2 day break to see Mayon Volcano and booked a 2 night stay here. It is right smack in the middle of Legazpi Ciry. The rooms- clean, comfortable beds, nice pillows, clean sheets, basic bathroom amenities, hot and cold shower with very good water pressure, bidet, fluffy towels and there's also hand towels. Complimentary coffee and water. We stayed in a room away from the street so it's pretty quiet too. The staff- young, friendly and helpful. They can use a little more knowledge on the things to do around legazpi and albay province. Breakfast- the room came with a free buffet breakfast. The selection is what you can expect from this price point, mostly local food like dried fish, smoked fish and vegetables. Coffee is freshly brewed with choices of breads and cereals. Overall, we like this place and would recommend it based on our personal experience.

Pros: 1. Location is the best if you want to be near all the shopping malls and easy access to food. 2. The price is reasonable. 3. Don't expect too much for the price you pay. 4. The cleaning of the room is by request. That is why they don't have the do not disturb door signs. Cons: 1. If there is a choice between a junior suite (rm. 4) and an executive suite (rm. 5 and 6) and the price is right, go for the executive suite because it is bigger. 2. I saw a small live cockroach in the bathroom (rm.4) 3. The rainfall and hand held shower heads have molds (rm. 4) 4. The bidet water head also has some mold (rm. 4) 5. The junior suite (Rm. 4) is really small for a queen bed which takes over the whole room. No place to put your luggage. 6. I first booked a junior suite for the first 3 nights and 4 nights were booked on the executive suite. They were not able to give me the executive suite to some mix-up in their booking. I had to have a discussion with the manager (I think she's the owner too) Ms. Elaine to see what they will do about it. At first I was promised she'll fix it but on the day of my move to the executive suite they want me to just stay on the junior suite. After some back and forth with Ms. Elain and a bit of minor arguing they just gave me a 10% discount on the remainder of my stay, Even though that ruined my expectations to have a bigger room, I don't want to be unfair.

清潔な部屋とフレンドリーなスタッフのおかげで、快適に滞在できました。 近隣にナイトマーケットがあり、飲食には困らないと思います。 広々とした部屋とリネン、お湯がちゃんと出るシャワーがあります。 ペットボトルの水はありませんが、給水機があるので飲み水に困りません。

My recent stay at the Lotus Blu Hotel left me thoroughly disappointed. The absence of essential amenities, including a gym and a pool, was a significant drawback. Furthermore, the quality of breakfast was subpar and did not meet expectations. Considering the price I paid, the value for money was far from fair. Adding to my dissatisfaction, the hotel did not accommodate a late check-out without additional charges, despite ongoing construction on the second floor. It was disappointing that the hotel did not make any effort to offer a free late check-out or provide compensation for the disturbance caused by the construction. Moreover, as a guest who frequently stays out early and returns very late at night due to business commitments, I had hoped for a more understanding and accommodating approach from the hotel. Unfortunately, this was not the case. Taking into account the lack of amenities, unsatisfactory breakfast, unfair pricing, inflexibility with late check-outs, and the hotel's failure to cater to my specific needs, I have decided that I will not be returning to the Lotus Blu Hotel in the future.

I expected more from this hotel being on the expensive side compared to its competitors. The rooms were but cleanliness needs to be improved. Breakfast was very carb heavy and not much protein options available.
