Waterfront Cebu City Hotel & Casino

8/10 Good
"This is one of my favorite hotels. We stay here everytime we visit Cebu because it’s centrally located and close to shopping and entertainment. But since it opened I don’t think there were any renovations/refurnishing done to the hotel rooms, lobby furniture, and pool area. Although the rooms are kept clean and the huge lobby, you can tell it’s aged and needs an upgrade. I hope management will do this and make it a priority. The concrete steps near the pool area poses a hazard. I stubbed my toe on those rough floors. Btw, the garden area and pavilion by the pool could be fixed and could be a great place to hold outdoor/garden weddings. So much potential if this hotel is getting upgrades and maintenance. Fabulous staff all around."
