I first stayed here some 15 years ago. Things have changed in the area for sure, but the Hotel is much as I remembered it. We stayed in a Majestic Suite and it was a nice room, so I would recommend it. What didn't impress me is the Compendium in the room, stating rates for transport was not current and did not match the front desk copy. Fortunately the Hotel honoured the room compendium which is just as well, as it was already expensive at Php4500 so we could make a return trip to Mt. Samat. In fairness it is for a minivan serving 1-8 people, but of course for 1 or 2 it is expensive. There is no taxi or Grab service in Balanga City and a tricycle is probably not a good choice for that journey. The Hotel seems popular for weddings and other functions and seems well set up for those events.
