The staff are all extremely welcoming and go out of their way to help you if you have any questions, will quickly order you a tricycle, or offer to call restaurant in the area to check if they are open. Breakfast is simple, eggs, fruit, toast but is filling enough. Through out the day staff will bring round filtered jugs of water while you sunbathe. The rooms are large and clean with good air conditioning and a fan. A very nice touch is they have an extra battery powered fan which is useful for the power cuts on Palawan. Unfortunately the evening before we were due to get an early bus up to El Nido, I got food poisoning from another restaurant. The staff at the hotel could not be more helpful, allowing my party to stay in our room (without charging any extra) and organised a…
On the back of some excellent reviews we booked a three night stay. The decision was the right one. Although off the beaten track it oozes charm and character and is small enough to allow the staff to give you a personalised stay. And the staff tick every box. Led by an affable gentleman by the name of Enriqo all will give their all to make your stay memorable. Book excursions with them in the confidence knowing they will be punctual and cost effective. All in all a first class package.
Stayed in a familyroom for 3 nights. The hotel is nice and quiet with a clean pool that we enjoyed. Big rooms with comfy beds. Walking distance to public beach. Would have been nice if they offered pancakes/toast for children at breakfast. They promised to pick us up at the airport but forgot this even though the hotel was not half full. Seemed a bit unorganized with information because of many reception staff. A part from this I highly recommend this place!
I wish I could give them 6 stars! By far the best value we found in Puerto Princessa. We stayed at more expensive places with fewer amenities. Massage service was great, breakfast was delicious, Laundry service was reasonably priced and fast, internet was fast, beds were comfortable, and staff were all delightful! Loved our stay!
Paboreal is an oasis from the hustle and bustle of Puerto Princesa. Whether you are in Puerto Princesa for a night (heading to El Nido) or for a few days (Honda Bay and Underground river) make Paboreal your base. Searching through TripAdvisor don’t be tempted by the photos of the bigger hotels/“resorts” because they can be deceiving. Paboreal’s photos may not be impressive, but I really think one should give this gem of a hotel a try. Number 1: impressed by the courteous staff and attentive owner. It was super difficult to find non dairy milk in the city, but the owner went to the market to buy us soy milk! The smiles of everyone also added to a lovely experience. Number 2: cleanliness Number 3: simply quiet from the chaos of the centre. If you are wanting some city…
Stayed just one night. Room was clean and had a balcony (N.o 9) and nice breakfast. Nice feeling with the pool with a lush surrounding and friendly, open atmostphere in the reception & restaurant -area. But most important: The bed was soft and comfortable! That’s hard to find in Asia (I’ve tried 40+ hotels).
The Paboreal is a fantastic hotel for your stay in Puerto Princesa. Quiet and relaxing spot but provides easy access to all areas of town. The staff was welcoming and friendly throughout my stay and provided excellent recommendations for dining, shopping, etc. Rooms and property are very clean and comfortable. Overall wonderful experience.
This hotel is outside of the main part of Puerto Princesa, not close to anything, need a tricycle ride to get to town, shops etc. That's the downside but the upside is, it is located out of town in the midst of some very nice trees & other greenery, you can hear the birds singing in the morning & see the stars at night. After Cebu, this seems like an oasis. They provide drinking water which is nice being so far out. Also provide breakfast,, (pandesal, eggs, ham or fruit, juice or coffee/tea) & the restaurant is open in the evening. The staff are very friendly & airport pickup can be arranged by contacting the hotel. They also arrange day trips to several places and tricycles to town. We booked a Superior room with a pool view, got Room 11, 2nd floor overlooking the pool…
Can’t praise this gorgeous hotel highly enough. Enrique and his staff, absolutely wonderful. Nice quiet location, not too far from town or restaurants/ bars. We are coming back to the Philippines next year and we will be definitely staying here
This stay exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment you meet the owner, Enrico you will understand why this place is how it is. He is warm, very kind and greets every guest with a smile and is extremely helpful. This place is great value for money and the perfect place to base yourself in Puerto Princesa for a relaxing stay. We would 100% stay here again. Highlights: - Enrico and his staff did everything to help assist us with our journey from El Nido to Coron as the ferry was cancelled. - Dinner was great. The staff made fresh italian style pasta. Delicious - Staff assisted in booking trips and Enrico ensured that we were fully prepared including providing us with sun cream to use. - Superb breakfast - The cats were great! - Room was clean - Piano pool was…
