Acacia Hotel Alabang

Since I'm on my bed-rest, Japheth is on school and i have nothing to do, I will also post pictures from my experience at Acacia hotel in Alabang.

We stayed here for a one day vacation. If you already have a kid.. staying nearby is the most easiest thing to plan.

We love this hotel.. Its very clean, room is spacious. Friendly and accommodating staff. And most especially its not that expensive as compared to other hotels in alabang. We only paid 3500 php for a Deluxe room (Agoda price). This includes breakfast for two.

The bed is big and comfortable, I could stay on it all night. I also love their pillows

CR has its own bathtub and separate shower. Their free toiletries smells nice and completely provided.

 

Our room has a good view of alabang.

Also, their is a celebration that night and we have the opportunity to watch the occasion by our window.

Pool Area - It was raining that time, Good thing we have a bathtub in our room which made japheth free to play and swim all day.

Your camera would never go wrong with their hotel lobby since it has a good lighting.

Inside Acaci

We are satisfied with their breakfast buffet since it has a lot of options

Happy Japheth? Happy?

Overall, we enjoyed our stay here in Acacia Hotel Alabang. I can say for now, this is the most enjoyable/satisfying hotel experience that we had in Alabang.  But since we haven't tried the 2 expensive hotel in alabang area... So we'll see...

Happy!

Parque Espana Alabang

This has been an overdue post. Ive been too lazy to write. I have my excuse, im busy  with my 2nd pregnancy.. :)

We stayed at Parque espana to celebrate New year. 

The room is really spacious and very homey. We had one bathroom, living room, kitchen, dining room and a bedroom.

Limited soap and shampoo available in the bathroom. No toothbrush and slippers. Also, no bags provided for dirty laundry

Shuttle is available to and from near malls (ATC and festival). You just need to call the lobby to bring and fetch you there

They have a buffet countdown to 2014 but we did not avail it since buffet menu was few. By 6 pm, we decided to order early at the hotel restaurant knowing that they need to cater lot of orders later on. Unfortunately, as early as 6pm they are no longer accepting orders for the media noche. Whhatttt?? Panic mode, what will be our food for the night?

Good thing, there's always a 24/7 pizza delivery. We ordered at dominoes pizza and bought cake at Conti's as an alternative.

The view from our room are fireworks from las pinas city

The morning after, we went to bistro del cielo to avail our free breakfast. I have no positive things to say.. The hotel restaurant is small and crowded. Buffet menu is also few and not really satisfying :(

Japheth's pancake looking sad...

Japheth excited to go on swimming

The pool is also small but japheth enjoyed swimming in it.

Overall, i have a few positive and lot of negative experience on this hotel. This hotel are good if you are on a business trip and would be staying for a number of days since all rooms has its own kitchen. Microwave, pots and pans are available. It is also good to use as a bridal room, baby and bridal shower.

Hotel lobby

If you ask me, if we would go back. Maybe not for now until they have improve their food and restaurant services.

We paid 5,000 php  (including tax) for their standard room at agoda

Crimson Hotel Alabang Staycation

We got the deluxe room from agoda. Room price is 3900 + charges =4500. They have promotion at that time so we got the room at 50% discount but i think its cheaper if we get it directly on crimson website. i visited their website and the exact same room would cost 4200 including the charges.

We arrived 12pm. We checked in from the 8th floor lobby. Luckily  they allow early check in.

 I saw this view from kim chiu's movie - Bakit di ka crush ng crush mo :-)

Our room

Room 

I cant help but compare the room size from acacia's deluxe room. Crimson's deluxe room is smaller. 

Bed and pillow are comfortable but i dont like that its hotdog pillow already has stains. But they removed this stained pillows when we return from our walk in festival mall. (Display lng siguro)

CR

no bathtub :(

Pool

We enjoyed the pool. (Dito ata sila bumawi). Towel is provided in the pool area.

      Kiddie pool- 2 ft

      Adult pool - 4 ft

Food. 

  Breakfast buffet is included in the package. 

Japheth and my plate.

Papa's plate- oops blurred

Japheth and mama's dessert. Japheth enjoyed the doughnut. 

Overall, there are few negatives and a lot of improvement in this hotel. However, we still enjoyed our stay. (Thanks to their pool). A nice way to stay for weekend family day.
