Park Inn by Radisson Davao

really great service! we wanted to try local durian but the hotel didnt allow us to bring it inside. however, the guards by the first floor door along with the hotel’s kitchen staff accomodated us still. they helped us find a solution and was even very generous with lending a hand in cutting the fruit open and plating it. they went above to ensure we had a good experience. very happy with their service and contagious positive attitude! they have a bridge connecting to SM Lanang on the second floor which was very convenient. the lady guard there was also very friendly.

We have booked a Suite room which featured a huge king bed, 2 TVs, 2 sofas, 2 toilets, lots of space and a bathroom with a shower and a bathtub (bathtubs are only in suites and not a standard room). The Suite here is the biggest room of the hotels in Davao. Rooms are provided with only 2 pillows but the hotel has accommodated our request for 2 extra pillows. The bed is comfortable to sleep on, as are the soft sofas. Water pressure is decent and hot water does quickly arrive in the shower. Room service has been lovely, with staff always greeting the guests. Special mention to Alile, our main room service provider on our floor. She works very hard and she is very friendly. A lovely person to see everyday during our stay. We did have a few issues during our stay. I have been to Davao for the past 3 years during summer in different hotels. This hotel's internet has been the slowest and most unreliable when comparing to my previous hotel stays. The smaller toilet had a lock that was faulty in a sense that you could risk accidentally locking yourself in from the inside. Luckily my partner was able to fix the issue and release himself from the room. My partner has mentioned one chef during breakfast service, had been reluctant in wanting to serve when he was asked to cook something for him, such as fried eggs and bacon. On one occasion, he never received the bacon. Following from similar reviews this year, the gym still hasn't been completed as the temporary gym is still in place. This is located within 1 standard guest room and features only 1 bench for strength training. This is inconvenient when another guest is using the place. Overall, I am satisfied with my stay here. A few things were frustrating like the internet connection and certain attitudes from a breakfast chef. Yet the overall pleasant attitudes of the other staff, and the convenient walk-bridge connecting the hotel to the shopping center next to it, comfortable Suites rooms, clean environments....does mean I would recommend this hotel, as it is one of the best hotels in Davao and the size of their Suites cannot be beaten.

Not a 4 star hotel and not worth the price charged. The "superior" rooms are tiny and very basic with poor quality construction and poor cleaning and maintenance. Everything feels cheap and low quality. We had to make multiple requests for standard amenities like towels and pillows. Rooms and random locations throughout the hotel have a strong smell of paint fumes from work going on. Our first room had mold in the bathroom and the shower door didn't close properly which flooded the room entryway. We moved to another room and this one had even worse mold and poor cleaning. The staff are friendly but inexperienced and not well trained for an international chain. I wouldn't choose to stay here again but there aren't many options for better hotels in Davao which is probably why they can get away with charging a 4 star price for a 2 star experience.
