Hotels near Sto. Nino Church in Catbalogan City

Catbalogan is a small city in Samar, and we stayed there because we were traveling from North Samar to Eastern Samar. It was too far a trip, especially when commuting. We took advantage of the terminal that one of the vans provided, and so we found ourseves in Catbalogan. What I appreciate about Asia Novo is their spacious room, and despite being in the heart of the city, it's quiet. However, for those who have walking issues, it may be a bit of a challenge since their hotel lobby is located on the 2nd floor and then the rooms are even located on the higher floors with only stairs as access. They have no restaurant within the hotel, but it's a good thing that they are near fast-food chains like Mang Inasal, and Jollibee. They do sell water, and other snack items. All in all, Grand Novo Boutique Hotel is a good place to stay in, especially if you're moving from one destination to another. This is not a luxurious hotel for staycation but the hotel does its job as a good place to rest.

Thank you GV hotel and to the polite and accommodating staffs!!! I appreciate your attentiveness and helpfulness during my stay!

Good location

Basic, but clean hotel. Ideal location near Metro supermarket and close to the wharf to catch the Seacat to Cebu. Breakfast was rice-based but adequate. Great view from room across to the cathedral and the wharf, etc.

Liked · A key central location with easy access to the entire town. The Hotel is quiet and maintains personal privacy very well. It is located away from the hustle and bustle of the busy street. The room was reasonable in size, exceptionally clean, the bed was comfortable. The staff were communicative and eager to help when asked to do so. The fresh water dispenser, hot showers, and air-conditioning were all very welcome! There seem to be intermittent difficulties with the Wifi signal though. Disliked · Besides the issues with the Wifi, the quality of the restaurant food could be improved. Portions were small, and quite often things which were displayed on the menu weren't available.

Bed is nice. Pillows are ok. Nice floor to ceiling glass window. Cleaning staff are very good. Accessible to airport and to city proper. Allowing my friends to visit and hangout. Lack of basic complimentary such as coffee or tea or electric kettle. Complimentary water is limited, if you drink water on average, you have to pay for more. You can ask hair dryer because it’s not readily available in the room. Lack of hygiene kit. Q-tip and shower cap not available. Even a tissue box in the bedroom and bin is not available. I buy my own kleenex box. This hotel is not for long term use, I mean 1 night is ok. But more than 1 night is not advisable for me. I stayed for 6 nights. So it was NOT as comfortable as I thought. They know I will stay for 6 nights and they give me room without hangin place for clothes😅 very small room. Salt and pepper restaurant staff needs to be more professional in answering phone calls, they have to treat each call properly. Every time I call they answer the phone like it’s their personal mobile and they are laughing and talking while I was on the line. BREAKFAST is scanty. Lastly, it would be great if your front desk can help guest for their needs. It really matters if they’d go an extra mile just to serve a guest. Ex: guest needs massage or any spa services; and front desk will answer. “I don’t know” If you are foreign to Calbayog and you don’t know anything in there. Don’t stay here. But if you don’t need to ask help from them, you can stay. But aside from the mentioned. Everything was good and ok.

Travel with family. Have a luxurious surprise birthday party for your mother. It was quite fun. I am grateful that all the staff were able to cooperate. It became an unforgettable memory of my mother. All the staff are kind. This is a recommended hotel. The rice is also delicious. The scenery is very beautiful.

My wife and I stayed at this hotel for a week from the end of April to 6th May 2023 and we found the staff wonderful, especially the dining staff for breakfast who were amazing. Everyone was very respectful and eager to help with delicious food in the Thai restaurant in the evening. It was great value for money with a huge double bed so thanks to all of the staff to make our stay so enjoyable.
