It's the time of the year when "earthquake" jokes pops in and when the state of being single will be scrutinized. Valentines day has always been a family affair for us. Each year, my husband and I celebrates it with the kids to make it a family-bonding affair.
For a family of 4, it's almost always costly to go out so finding the perfect place at the right price is always the top priority. We decided to buy a voucher from Metrodeal which gives us an overnight stay at Crown Regency Hotel - we picked their Fuente Towers Osmeña Blvd., Cebu City branch. The accommodation is a deluxe room good for 2 adults with a maximum of 2 kids below 12 years old free of additional charges. It also includes a breakfast buffet good for 2 and access to their pool and gym. For the price of PHP2,577 (~$60), it's a steal for us.

Our deluxe room is located at the 8th floor (Tower 1) complete with a king-size bed, mini refrigerator, spacious closet, hair dryer, work table, comfortable chairs, clean towels, bathtub with hot shower, and a kettle that you can use if you want to have a cup of coffee or tea which in our case is very helpful in preparing my son's milk. They provided basic hygiene kit and toiletries good for 2 which includes shower gel, shampoo with conditioner, bar soap, toothbrush, and toothpaste.

The Outdoor Pool
The hotel provides access to their outdoor pool to all their guests. It is located at the 9th floor. They have 3 pools which the kids really love. It's not too deep either (approximately 4 feet max) so it's really kid-friendly. Upon signing at the pool entrance, they will provide you with towels. Lounging chairs are available as well as shower areas, and comfort rooms.
Breakfast Buffet at Glo Cafe
The hotel's free breakfast buffet to their guests starts at 6AM and ends at around 10AM. They have a good selection of food, mostly American breakfast items, salad greens, juices, breads, etc. The kids love their pancakes which they can cook for you upon request. I personally loved their bread selection while my husband adores their beef tapa.

Oh wow that's a great hotel to stay in! I like pools that aren't too deep because I'm not much of a swimmer and are afraid of drowning as well haha. All the facilities look well maintained. We're going to Cebu this May but we've already booked in another hotel. We hope to check into Crown Regency next time!
ReplyDeleteVery nice exploring the heart of Cebu with Crown Regency Hotel as your place. Well, looks you enjoyed your stay with family in the well-maintained place.
ReplyDeleteSeems you have a good stay sa hotel. Okay ang fixtures eh.
ReplyDeleteGreat hotel to stay in. My wife always asks me to visit Cebu with the whole family. Now I know where to stay if ever we do it this year.
ReplyDeleteThe hotel looks so clean and comfy. Glad you had a wonderful time there during Valentines
ReplyDeleteCrown is one of the best locations to explore Cebu. I miss riding the edge coaster and I will probably do it again soon. ;)
ReplyDeleteActually, I got a call from CROWN REGENCY, it's a free accommodation to any Crown Regency Hotel in the Philippines. I have been so careful in dealing with calls from companies I never made any form of transaction. A bit skeptical with the promos and freebies they give me. But reading your post and how you get the voucher at METRODEAL this is not a SCAM! Truly a perfect Valentines dates with your love one's.
ReplyDeleteHope to visit here soon once we will go back to Cebu. Affordable and cozy place.
ReplyDeleteI've been to crown because of the skywalk and I see that the place is so elegant. I have yet to stay here and it looks really so comfy to be there.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great deal to buy vouchers at MetroDeal. You could get a big discount from them plus a great accommodation for the whole family! Very nice! And I do hope I could try their side coaster which is really thrilling! I hope I can muster courage to ride that coaster! :D
ReplyDeleteHappy family in happy-looking hotel. Now I am happy as well :)
ReplyDeleteI love this hotel, do they have other branch aside from the one in Fuente?
ReplyDeleteThat is a fantastic idea to spend Valentine's Day with the whole family. Instead of going the usual route of heading to a restaurant, a nice stay at a hotel is a different experience.
ReplyDeletewow! hope to experience this hotel also when I got the chance to visit cebu in the future! ang dami kasing vouchers nito sa metrodeal right?
ReplyDeleteWe went to Crown Regency during our Cebu vacation years ago, but it's only for their buffet dinner and the skywalk adventure. The room is big pala.
