Not sure why this isn’t rated higher on TA, because we had a fantastic time and it’s almost faultless. The staff are so nice and friendly, and they assisted us with check in and transport. The breakfast isn’t great and sometimes the Wi-Fi drops out but these are the only bad points. The rooms are super spacious and everything is clean and comfortable. The showers are some of the best we’ve had in our trip to SE Asia, and all products and towels are provided. Location is also excellent, close to restaurants and the promenade is only 5-10 mins away. There is a fridge, television and kettle in the room, and room service / cleaning is available every day. Overall would absolutely recommend it here and I would stay again!

After a few people tested positive for COVID on our scuba boat, the authorities required us to stay at this hotel to be tested the next day. The assigned me a room with no windows or sunlight. There were cockroaches throughout the room. If you don’t have a choice, stay here or if you like cockroaches stay here, otherwise don’t stay here!

Great view from the restaurant. Nice facilities. Large room with great TV channel selection. Fast Wifi. AC works great - Hot water. They had construction going on but only during the day. My fiancée loved the unlimited breakfast.

It's a pitty this hotel has plenty of potential, rooms are big, sea view, bed is comfortable and linen good quality but if you need customer service.... Forget it.. It doesnt exist here, they keep forgetting things, take ages to attend your request. In breakfast time, staff was missing. You have to ring the bell and wait... Maybe you are lucky and someone shows up..

We spent three days in Puerto Princesa as we were interested to see the Underground River before going to El Nido for more fun. The Sunlight Hotel is very well located right in the middle of the town, close to the Beachwalk park, the restaurants and shops, the travel agencies. The hotel is clean and it has a great service, the reception and the driver were really helpful. Breakfast was good and the room (deluxe with sea view) was outstanding. As I saw the rooms with the interior balcony are not that great. Anyway, in my experience it was a great hotel and would return for sure.

We were left at the airport after organising a transfer with the hotel. So things didn't start out well. When we arrived at the hotel and after asking the question, why, we received the obligatory smile with no explanation. The inner rooms are very dark and bedside lights are inadequate to read by. Don't know what the staff were doing the first night in the corridor but they were very noisy most of the night. The bed mattresses are rock hard. The breakfast over the weekend was good but week days no so. You are located in the middle of everything, so that is a plus.
