We were booked at the Waterfront Hotel in Lahug, and my room, shown above, was a simple yet elegant suite at the casino block. This hotel is a huge one, with around 550 rooms, a casino and a convention center all in one location. I understand that the location used to be the site of the Lahug airport, which serviced Cebu City while the Mactan airport was still on the drawing board. The room was priced at around P8,500 per night, and my booking agent was already able to get a discount at that.
We asked for a tour of the different suites and were lucky to be shown the Presidential Suite--finely done with intricate Filipiniana decor. Quite spacious, I estimated that the suite was around 250 m2 in area.
The executive lounge was on the 18th floor, and was just right for small gatherings and business meetings.
The tour guide also took us to one of the older suites, which had a different feel compared to the renovated rooms (done maybe 3-4 years ago).
We were also shown the reception area for the tour groups--wide and spacious, right as you get off from the bus drop-off area.
