The Mansion, Mabalacat City, Philippines

The place is nice to look at and the tranquility makes you just want to lie down and relax, though sometimes the noise from other rooms could keep you awake at night. The 2 pools are kept relatively clean and the kids love it. Those are the best parts. Sad, though, that the complimentary breakfast choices are not as great as you would wish and the service, especially on a Monday when the manager is supposedly on day off, is disheartening. They should check their bathrooms too, because in our last 2 stays there, it was always the bathroom that gave us problems (water accumulating in corners away from the drain, the bad smell persisting despite supposedly daily cleaning, and the toiletries are dismal).

Love the resort vibe of the hotel. I didn't feel like I was in the middle of a huge development. I felt like I was on vacation on some wealthy relative's mansion. Bonfire, outdoor movie, free popcorn. Their cocktails were good. Love the game room. I felt safer because we were inside The Village, gated with security guards. Love the nearby Korean grill restaurant. The only thing I didn't like was that I can hear from the bedroom the noise from the corridor coming from children who woke up early to swim.

This was a last ninute trip as flying out of Clark the next day. The views are amazing and the staff/service was very good.

It was my first time staying at The Mansion. The pace was amazing, not typical hotel settings. You feel like you’re at home, the area was big and lots to do other than swim in the pool. It’s tucked in a village like area. You feel secured because you will passed two guard gates before you get The Mansion. The staff were friendly. I will definitely stay here again

The place is really amazing. The bonfire, movie night and free popcorn is great for family bonding. We will definitely be back.

I wanted something out in the middle of nowhere since i was feeling pretty ill and just wanted to relax and rest. One thing that kept this from being a better experience was my room (#5) was connected to the kitchen and it was VERY loud. I could hear a lot of noise, banging, talking, laughing, etc. throughout the day and into the evening. Couple that with the fact that this is basically like a motel with the room at the front of the building, opening up to the parking lot, and the noise from people walking past or standing outside my room meant it was anything but quiet. Next time i'll spend a little more to get a room on the 2nd floor behind the building - hopefully that will be a bit better.

Really enjoyed our stay. It was a lovely hotel with great staff, so friendly and attentive! The hotel is very new, amenities are great, and rooms are clean and a good size. Will definitely return!
