Good: Resort actually looks kind of cool from the outside, with the main building looking like it was jutting out from the side of a mountain. The staff? Super awesome service! They have food available to order and they're not too overpriced (the corned beef was actually very good). The room? Ample closet space, relatively clean, cool temperature, hot shower was working. All for 1700/ night (promo rate, 1 adult, 2 kids).||||The resort- three pools, each larger than the other. A giant slide in the pool closest to hotel entrance. Swim shorts and shirts, cover ups can be bought by the information booth, but limited sizes.||||The place is also close to nearby Antipolo attractions- we walked to Hinulugang Taktak the next day.||||The not-so-good: Cash transactions only (for everything), so make sure you bring cash (or opt to book online); menu is limited (usual silog, pancit meals); limited power outlets inside the room; they were very lax with swimwear, someone was even swimming in a shirt and leggings.||||All in all, yeah I'd go back during lean season maybe. The kids enjoyed it enough. Book a room if you are looking for something basic with pool access, or need a place to crash in between touring Antipolo...
Read moreHotel/Resort name: Femar Garden Hotel & Convention Center ||||Location: Antipolo||||Country: Philippines||||Booking year: 2013||||Stars:** (2)||||Price: from: 1.523 PHP||||Staff service: OK the staff here is very friendly and helpful.||||Standard rooms: OK, the hotel looks old and crying for a little paint and attention. The rooms have just cold water in the shower so it's a cold experience. ||||My Review||||Staying here for 4 days and it looks like this is in the middle of nowhere and here are much noise around here is a OK swimming pool but the staff and some local kids are using it most of the day it looks like.||The Karaoke they have here from mid day and to late in the evening is the most enjoying of it all. ||||They don't sell any food on the hotel but that is not to bad since you have more to choose from and they order for you if you ask in the reception at the hotel.||It's also right over the flightpath to Manila airport so you have flight noise from early morning to late at night.||||Bare also in mind that it's not sure they can get you a taxi so you need to use a tricycle when you leave the hotel, and that is not cool if you have a...
Read moreWent here for a team building activity and we are surely coming back. Very affordable and accessible, and staff are always very helpful and friendly. We had to ask for additional mattresses and they accommodated us with no extra charge.||Food was so amazing! Lutong bahay and always served on time.||The drive took about two hours from Manila with moderate traffic. The resort was in a nice, quiet location but not a lot of establishments accessible by walking. There are nearby sari-sari stores for quick needs. Grab and commuting is an option if you would like to explore Antipolo further.||The rooms and facilities are clean. Pool is also very nice and lots to choose from (around 4 pools, I think?) and long pool hours. We couldn't make use of the pool the first night because there was no lifeguard available.||This resort is bright and airy. Lots of cottages, only one conference room when we booked. Some areas were being renovated which made the days a bit noisy but it...
