Grand Palace Hotel Butuan

There's a new 7-11 just across the road from the hotel. But if your transaction are by the main road. The road to JC Aquino is almost inaccessible on foot as it muddy and lots of puddles. Difficult to walk around so you need taxi or tuktuk all the time.

Nice staff

Very nice hotel. Very professional staff. Rooms are clean and adequate. Also come with free breakfast. Very big parking lot

We came in from the south along the bypass and had a little trouble finding the hotel but luckily with the aid of Google maps we were able to find it in the end and once there it was well worth the stay. The check-in was smooth and quick with the staff welcoming and friendly and we were soon taken to our room by the porter. It was a big surprise to see our room, it was a very big room with twin beds and a large lounge suite and also a writing desk which was handy for my laptop. The bathroom was also large with a full bath and separate shower and large basin set and vanity. The aircon was an older style in the wall unit but it worked well and kept the room nice and cool and the beds were very comfortable for the three of us, two adults and a child. One small defect was the WiFi which was quite slow around 2.5mbps and didn't allow much streaming but not a huge problem for us. I'm not sure if there is an in-house restaurant as we had delivered food but there is breakfast available which we had next morning. Our one-night stay was excellent and we will surely stay there in future overnight visits to Butuan.
