Upon arrival, I booked for 2 standard quadruple rooms, but because their Wifi was not working, they stated that they only had one quadruple room and instead gave us a classic double room. They stated their Wifi wasn't working for weeks and had no idea when it would be fixed. They offered a massage service from an outside company. When we booked the massages, they came to our hotel and said that their rates had changed and that the hotel had advertised incorrect prices. They also said they didn't have enough time to provide the services we had reserved for. There was also poor cell phone reception so it was difficult to stay in touch with anyone, most importantly our shuttle service & tour guide, During this time, they were also doing construction, so it was very noisy (loud banging). Whoever was doing construction, cut off our cable TV. So, our TV did not work. The breakfast is late. Most people need to get into town by 8am for their tours. We also had to leave early to get back to the airport which did not give us enough time for breakfast. The people at the front desk gave our room number to strangers who came looking for us for money. They opened our door while we were changing our clothes. This is a major safety issue. There are not elevators, so be prepared to climb stairs. Also, there are no phones to ring the front desk. So, if we ever needed anything, we had to find someone. I am very unhappy and dissatisfied with this property. I do not recommend it to anyone.

Nice, Clean.
It was a nice place. The dining area had the most beautiful view. Restaurant was only open during certain times and wifi was terrible, but, overall very nice. If you are planning to spend a lot of time in the hotel, spend the extra money and stay somewhere else. However, if you are looking for a nice clean place, away from the backpacker hoopla this is it. Not far from town. 100 pesos in a tricycle and walking distance to beachfront restaurants and shops. Staff were friendly. Bring a blanket! They only provide a bedsheet. The room was nice and cool. I didnt even use the A/C but was cold at night with no blankets.

Very small room. Bathroom approximately 15 sq. ft. AC went out on the second day. No shelves or places to hang things. No wifi. Some rooms have no windows so very musty smelling. Spacious upstairs dining area that is very seldom used... but beautiful view. I realize this tends to be a crap shoot....but i struck out on this one.

Accessible location. Accommodating staff tho service is not to be parred with hotels. Buffet Breakfast is only available on weekends. They serve per plate Breakfast Meals only on weekdays. Each 2pax room only has a thin sheet of blanket and 2 pcs. of pillows. There are black ants crawling inside our room and a gecko making sounds at night.

Contacted this hotel before my trip and advised them that we need airport-hotel transfer and they noted that but got to the airport and no hotel transfer waiting for us. I had to find one for my family to transport us to el Nido. Staff was very helpful but the hotel itself is not so great except the view from the 4th floor. It was the staff that made our stay there pleasant.

Comfortable and clean stay in Corong Corong
We really enjoyed the location of the hotel, a bit outside the bustle of town. The hotel staff was gracious and helpful. The accommodations were minimal but exactly what we were looking for--clean and functional. We also really appreciated the free breakfast on site.

Good Hotel to Stay!
Royal Palm Inn is a good place to hotel. Rooms are clean and food is good. Most importantly, hotel staff are good. They are very courteous to their guests and very helpful. Location Is also good. It is just a tricycle away from the tourists' spots.

Prisvärt.
Helt ok för priset, gångavstånd till los cabanos beach. Fick ett rum högst upp och mot den trafikerade vägen, lät väldigt mycket men stördes egentligen bara en natt utav trafiken. Kan ej haft något vattenlås på avloppet i duschen, lukta extremt mycket vissa dagar. Trivdes dock ändå, bra frukost och god mat på kvällen. Hjälpsamma med bokning utav båt-turer.

コスパ良好で清潔。
アイランドホッピングの予約をフロントにお願いしました。スタッフは皆親切で、きちんと手配してくれました。ちなみに私はほぼ英語が話せませんがなんとか理解して協力してくれました。朝食はビュッフェ形式で美味しかったです。海に面したところ(西)が共有スペースなので、夕陽が沈むのをゆっくり眺めました。徒歩5分かからず浜辺に行けますが、物売りが来るのでホテルにいました。朝食以外は食べ物の調達方法がないので、街の中心で済ませる必要があります。空港や街の中心部からは少し離れていますが(空港から400ペソ、ビーチから100ペソでトライシクルに乗りました)周囲もホテルがあり、賑やかだけどうるさすぎず、居心地が良かったです。

Kein 2 oder schon gar nicht 3 Stern Hotel ! ! !
Nach einem 5 Stunden lang andauernden Transfer von Puerto Princesa nach El Nido, freuten wir uns schon auf das gebuchte Zimmer im ROYAL PALM INN in El Nido. Die Enteuschung war groß, sehr groß, ein Zimmer mit 2m x 2,5m, kein Kühlschrank, wobei dann noch weniger Platz bzw gar kein Platz, dazu mit Fenster auf einen offenen Frühstücksraum, auf die Frage um ein Upgrate, boten sie uns ein Zimmer der gleichen Größe mit Balkon, mit Blick auf Baustelle. Danke nein! keine Empfehlung
