Top 5 Luxury Hotels in Cebu

セブ高級ホテル

If you frequently travel for business or recreation and are all about posh accommodations and top of the line service, you can definitely find several high end hotels in Cebu. Separate from resort-hotels, these establishments are more straightforward with the accommodation type and services included in booking a room. While resort-hotels provide a more vacation feel and may be miles away from the center of the metro, these 4 or 5 star hotels are right in the heart of Cebu City’s business and commercial district. This makes it very convenient for hotel guests to get the luxurious accommodation and the ease of going around the city. With the urbanization of the city and its neighboring towns, tourists who visit, whether for business or pleasure, find the amenities and recreational facilities of these high class hotels a comforting home away from home.

Before we give you our top picks for the best luxury hotels in Cebu City, we’d like to give you tips and tricks on getting the most of your stay. When you book hotels, be it a luxury or a budget hotel, make sure to book it days in advance so you can get a better deal in pricing. You can use booking and price match websites that will give you the best option in pricing and reservations, as there are booking websites that will allow you to pay at the hotel and will not require you to give your credit card details on the website. Another helpful tip is to read the reviews of previous guests and pay particular attention to customer reviews that are a recurring theme, or those that are frequently mentioned as these are more likely to be true. If you are arriving from a different city/country via the airport, it is wise to contact the hotel if they offer free/paid shuttle services for their in-house guests. When you are traveling as a group, ask the reservations officer if there are rooms that can accommodate your group size and the corresponding additional rates for the extra beddings and meals. Make sure to call ahead for your special requests or instructions (allergies in food, preference in routine room service, toiletries needed, additional services needed, etc.) so your stay will be streamlined and hassle free.

Without further ado, here are our picks for the 5 best luxury hotels in Cebu:
