What to do on a long holiday-weekend?
Yup, you got that one right: A family staycation at one of Ortigas premier hotels~
We booked ourselves a corner Deluxe Room.
The room is spacious (about 50sqm.), enough for my boys to run and play around.
You don't get this much space abroad.
The room has a floor to ceiling window that overlooks the hotel pool (which it shares with Holiday Inn hotel next door).
My son, found his spot. He claimed this comfortable side chair with foot stool for watching TV.
There is a 42inches LED TV hooked to good selection of local and international channels (obviously ours was tuned to the Nick and Disney channel the entire time).
Complimentary coffee and tea
Huge bathroom, with a separate shower and bath tub.
Yes, there is bidet
Basic toiletries...
Bath robe and a safety box, completes the room.
VERDICT
- Location is A+. We love that it has a direct access to Robinson's Galleria mall.
- Service is great as expected of an IHG hotel. Staff are amiable and efficient.
- Our room is spic-and-span. However, age is catching up and would soon require renovation and probably some upgrade, I remember the last time we've stayed at his hotel and it was immaculately clean, smells new too.
- Buffet breakfast is good with a wide selection of food, but fails in comparison to our previous visit.
- Overall it is a nice family hotel. We would love to come stay again, just by its location alone.

Never been to Crowne Plaza but the photos look nice. I wish we could go there someday! :D
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a great time! We stayed there once for a Rotary event, I agree, A+ ang location. It wasn't hard to buy stuff we need since it's directly linked with Robinson's.
ReplyDeleteWow! This room really looks spacious and comfortable.
ReplyDeleteOh it is really a huge room. It could fit 7 running kids and with space left for a watchful mama :P. It was cozy too and the IHG brand really spells good service.
DeleteOh, I miss staycations! :)
ReplyDeleteHow much per room per night?

ReplyDeleteHubby and I stayed there for an overnight and I super love the shower room so spacious. Sana makabalik kami dyan :)
ReplyDeleteI've been checking out Ensogo and Cashcashpinoy for nice staycation deals, ngayon ko lang kasi nadiskubre tong mga to, haha, kaya meron akong nakalineup na ready to book. Will check this out the next time we plan a staycation. Thanks for the pictures.
ReplyDeleteHi Kat, check also Deal Grocer. I often get my staycatio through them. They have a list of pretty good hotels and resorts.
DeleteHaven't been here but the place looks nice. How much was the room per night? TIA!

DeleteIf you are looking for a place for staycation I also recommend MarcoPolo Hotel. http://juvyann19.blogspot.com/2015/04/luxurious-family-staycation-at-marco.html
I've been to Crowne Plaza to attend events but not to have a staycation. Ang laki ng room nila ha.
ReplyDeleteWe've never tried staying in this hotel yet. I'll add it to my list of hotels to try. :) I love that it's connected to the mall. :)
ReplyDeleteAh, we need a staycation...soon! I've never been to Crowne Plaza, looks like a good place to stay :) We've tried Malayan Hotel in Ortigas too, across ADB, and they have a playroom for kids naman :)
ReplyDeleteI have been eyeing Malayan Hotel. I have heard its nice and very affordable. Do you have a review of Malayan, would love to read it :P
DeleteWe've attended a wedding reception here but haven't stayed in one of their rooms yet. It must have been nice! :)
ReplyDeleteIt was nice. But what I really like about Crowne Plaza is its direct access to Galeria. I can do my shopping, while the boys stays in the hotel to chillax.
DeleteMiss ko na mag staycation ah! Grabe. :) And they have a bath tub! Hooray!
ReplyDeleteThat looks an awesome place. I'm gonna try to visit it. I'm pretty sure me and my friends are going to love it. Check out the Hotels in Cebu City, you'll love it too. Anyway, Thanks for sharing!
