Toyoko Inn Cebu

The accommodation's condition is, as always, well-maintained. I'm satisfied with everything, including the staff's service level. However, the aging air conditioner has a noise problem, so it would be great if you could expedite its replacement. I've also attached some photos that might be helpful when booking this hotel.

Great location, only about 20 minutes from the airport. There's a shuttle bus every hour, but you need to book in advance. The hotel's second floor connects directly to a shopping mall. There's a massage service on the 7th floor that's quite affordable. Breakfast offers a wide variety of choices. The only downside is that it's quite noisy; the soundproofing isn't great. I kept hearing honking and engine noises throughout the night.

Overall, a fantastic hotel! While it's not exactly like Japan itself, the cleanliness and facilities are excellent. The breakfast menu, although not extensive, changes daily, so you won't get bored even on a long stay. Plus, it's right next to SM J-Mall, which makes shopping super convenient.

The location was excellent, making sightseeing and getting around very convenient, which made my stay very comfortable. The area around the hotel also had a calm atmosphere, and even though it was my first time visiting, I felt safe and at ease. I also used the massage service attached to the hotel. It was great, and quite affordable considering it was available right there in the hotel. Since I was on a business trip, being able to get a massage between work sessions was an unexpected treat. Beyond just the great location, these kinds of services made it feel like a hotel where I could truly relax, even during a busy stay. If I have the opportunity to be in the area again, I would definitely like to stay here.

This Japanese-style hotel is no different from chain hotels in Japan, except the rooms are larger and include a bathtub. The staff are all very friendly and kind. The breakfast is delicious, enough to be considered lunch, and it's different every day. The first day was boiled eggs, the second was omelets. The sushi even had tuna, so they weren't cutting corners. There was also a welcome drink that I had after check-out, and you can choose your own time for it. Downstairs, there's a big mall where you can exchange money, a large supermarket, and many Japanese restaurants. The hot water was good, but I felt the bathtub wasn't as good as those in Japan; the water cooled down quickly. The hotel offers airport pick-up and drop-off, which is great; you just need to email to book it. Cons: 1. The room was too humid. The floor felt damp and not completely dry. 2. The air conditioning was a bit noisy. Considering the price, the service and breakfast are excellent, and direct access to the mall makes it truly fantastic.

The rooms are exactly the same as the Toyoko Inn in Japan. It was very helpful to be able to rent the washer and dryer for 200 pesos! Not everyone at the lobby seems to speak Japanese, but there are instructions written in Japanese, so it's not a problem. After check-in, it was very convenient to have direct access to and from the SM J Mall next door.

The hotel breakfast was delicious and the environment was clean. The room and bed were very comfortable. The location is excellent, right below the SM mall, which is very convenient. I highly recommend Toyoko Inn.
