Hostels in Mimaropa, Philippines

Clean, spacious beds and super friendly staff at Spin Designer Hostel El Nido. Near town proper so walking around at night is easy + safe. Free breakfast with lots of options. Only small note: the drier area was a bit confusing at first. Great value and would come back!

The location is great, offering a beautiful view and easy access to the town and all necessary amenities. However, there are some issues with the room: it is quite small, and the mountain view is actually just a view of the rocks. Additionally, the TV isn't working, likely due to a lack of satellite signal, but the Wi-Fi is good.

Great location. They don't provide towels for free, so if you need them you can rent it for 50 pesos. You can also book a tour or ferry through the front desk and it's super convenient. The room is nice. It has an air conditioner and a fan. The bed was big with a clean linen. If you book a 12 person room you will have a shower in a room, but the water pressure there is weak. But you can go to the 2nd floor bathroom.

The hotel staff are super friendly and helpful. The Wi-Fi is stable. Unfortunately, it's hard to sleep in the hostel because the walls are quite thin. Especially if your dorm is near the kitchen, the smell also gets into the room, and it's difficult to sleep because the kitchen is noisy during preparation, and you can hear everything due to the thin walls.

We stayed for five nights, booking one double room and one family room. Both rooms were sufficiently furnished, and there were tables outside that we made good use of during the day. We were also offered the use of a fridge in the common area, which we really appreciated. From what I understand, only the family rooms come with water heating. The location is very good—tucked away in a safe, lively neighbourhood and within walking distance of both NCCC Mall and SM City Puerto Princesa Mall, where there are supermarkets and plenty of food options. We were also able to walk to several places of interest in the city, including the Boardwalk, Chinatown, the Heritage Centre, and the Immaculate Conception Cathedral. There’s a laundry just across the road that charges reasonable rates. The hosts were the best part of the stay. They were family-oriented, warm, hospitable, accommodating, and very communicative. They helped organise tours at prices better than those offered on online platforms. We had a whale of a time at Honda Bay and the Underground River—both are must-experience attractions when visiting Palawan. Highly recommended for travellers looking for a welcoming place, great hosts, and a convenient location.

During my recent visit to the Divine Castle Travelers Inn in Coron, Busuanga, I was pleasantly surprised by the overall experience. The inn stood out for its exceptional cleanliness, which was a welcome relief after a long day of travel. The pristine condition of the rooms and common areas was truly impressive. What truly set this inn apart, however, was its picturesque location nestled next to a gentle hill. The scenic beauty of the surrounding landscape added an extra layer of charm to my stay. Waking up to the sight of lush greenery and the soothing sounds of nature was a true delight. The inn's proximity to the hill also meant that I could easily take a leisurely stroll and explore the natural beauty of the area. It provided a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, allowing me to unwind and recharge. Overall, my experience at Divine Castle Travelers Inn was nothing short of delightful. The combination of cleanliness and its idyllic location made it a memorable and enjoyable stay. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat in Coron, I highly recommend considering this inn.

The hotel has a decent location, and everything about it is actually quite good, except for the management. We booked a deluxe room with a large bed and a balcony. We arrived late and were checked into a very basic economy room on the first floor of an annex building (Room B – more like a tiny closet than a room). All the receptionists, one after another, kept assuring us that this was indeed the room category we booked, claiming it had a sea view and they simply hadn't updated the photos, and that the balcony had been removed after a typhoon. They also said they couldn't reach the manager, and without the manager, they couldn't move us. We decided to leave for a Tour A, gathered all our belongings, and moved them to the luggage room, hoping they would be transferred to a different room later. However, upon our return, we were again given the key to the same economy room. After an hour of 'trying' to resolve the issue at reception, we were finally given a room on the second floor of the annex building (Room D) – it had no balcony, but it was bigger and cozier than the previous one (it had a safe, kettle, and a table with chairs – none of which were in Room B). This situation ruined our first impression, even though the hotel is otherwise not bad. It's in the heart of the action and convenient for those who came for sightseeing. The lingering feeling is unclear. We had little time for this place and really didn't want to spend it on arguments, room changes, and listening to people smilingly lie to your face. The photo shows Room D, the one we were moved to.

It's just a hostel, nothing special about the room. Just a regular dormitory. The bathrooms are OK, but no hit water. But it's pretty often here in the Philippines. There is a nice bar also with good promotions, ha-ha. And you can see really beautiful sunsets here

Our stay at this inn in Puerto Princesa truly exceeded my expectations. We arrived from a long trip, and even before we could get off the van, a staff member was already there to warmly welcome us and assist with our luggage. That small gesture immediately set the tone for the kind of service they provide—attentive, proactive, and genuinely caring. Since it was only a short stay, I didn’t expect much at first. But the level of hospitality we experienced was nothing short of exceptional. The staff were consistently courteous, accommodating, and made sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. It’s rare to come across a place where service feels this personal and effortless. They made us feel well taken care of from the moment we arrived until we left. I would definitely recommend this inn to anyone visiting Puerto Princesa, especially if you value warm and reliable service.

Had such a fun stay at this hostel! The location is perfect—everything’s just a short walk away, with tons of restos, bars, and souvenir shops nearby. The staff were super friendly and really accommodating, which made the whole experience even better. Definitely a great spot whether you’re traveling solo or with friends.They also serve free breakfast every morning, and honestly, sipping my coffee out on the balcony was one of my favorite parts. The view there is just amazing. Would 100% recommend!!!
