Great Value for Money
Pros:

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The location was strategic with proximity to major roads and restaurants. The room was clean, staff are kind, and the price is competitive. My kids liked the mini playground at the ground floor and the Tub the room came with. Breakfast was filling and yummy. Overall, I’ll surely come back whenever I’m in the area. Thank you.

A place to stay
Pros:

We’ve stayed here twice already since it’s conveniently located near where we need to be. We keep coming back because the room rates are very affordable, yet you get great value for what you pay. The breakfast is decent, the beds are comfortable, and the rooms even come with a bathtub. My husband also enjoys using the gym. I think the only downside is not having a Netflix on the TV, most hotels now offer this, and sometimes some travellers wants this.

Warm and Memorable Stay
Pros:

The hotel staff were exceptionally warm and welcoming throughout our stay. They were attentive to our needs, promptly addressing all our inquiries and ensuring that we felt well taken care of. This was my first time bringing friends along, and we were all truly impressed with the amenities, the level of hospitality, the comfort of the rooms, and the sense of security provided. Thank you for such a wonderful experience—we are already looking forward to our future bookings.

A relaxing stay after a long trip!
Pros:

Staff at the front desk, Sir Klarenze and Ma'am Cath were very friendly. Sir AJ and the other 2 lovely ladies at the kitchen were very accommodating and very considerate to my needs and requests. Ambiance was relaxing with the jazz instrumental music playing all the time. Rooms were spacious and i love the bath tub 😀 I will definitely stay here again 😀

Good Service, Standard Facilities
Pros:

This is a bit of a late review. but I wanted to share my experience. The stay was generally okay. The room was clean and comfortable, and most of the staff were polite. Clarenz at the front desk was especially helpful during check-in and check out. However, some areas of the hotel felt a bit outdated, and the amenities were fairly basic.

A Cozy Boutique Hotel in Katipunan
Pros:

It has been a while since I was in Quezon City. It was a pleasant surprise to know that there is a hotel along Katipunan. It's location is so strategic, you can easily commute or get a cab and reach Makati, QC and Marikina. SotoGrande gave a clean, elegant and comfortable vibe. From the lobby to the rooms, one would feel welcome and relaxed. Their staff are all courteous, pleasant and helpful. Shout out to Jayden and Kat whose warm welcome make you feel home upon entrance. Food at their cafe at the time of our stay, offered buffet. Food was good, selection was well thought of. I wish we had space to try their lunch or dinner another time. We got a deluxe room with a view of the sunrise in the morning. They have an indoor pool open til 10pm and a gym for health buffs. I would recommend SotoGrande for small families, tourists and balikbayans,

Valentines day experience
Pros:

Our whole family really enjoyed our stay here! Upon arrival, we were already greeted with welcome balloons in our room for Valentine's Day. By the way, we booked the 'Romance in the City' promo for February 14th. The dinner was supposedly a buffet, but they replaced it with a 5-course set dinner; it was perfectly fine, though, because the food they served was delicious. They even gave us a complimentary ₱1,000 restaurant voucher and a small gift since it was Valentine's Day.
The restaurant staff were very kind and welcoming, especially the manager who checked on us from time to time to see if we were okay or how's the food, as well as our server, A-jhay, during breakfast. The room was clean and even had a bathtub. The pool was also clean, though it would have been better if the water was a bit warmer since there were babies swimming. Overall, everything was great. Kudos to all the staff at Sotogrande Hotel! We had a wonderful time staying there and will definitely be back.

Great hotel for te price.
Pros:

Great clean and updated rooms in hotel. Single bed rooms a bit small. Noise is Ok being close to a major road but the AC cuts the noise. Breakfast is free and it was a hassle to get them to make it hot . Otherwise a great hotel.

Our stay, was not worth the price we paid.
Pros:

The location of the hotel is close to where we hold our business in the area.

Cons:

We reported a leak behind the toilet, but was not taken care of before we checked out.

In addition, we saw two small cockroaches.

In spite of all the above problems, we were not offered for them to relocate us – move us in another room.
