The staff was great. The WiFi was terrible, the A/C wasn’t great and we had lots of ants in our room. The staff did give us bug spray and a fan. I still left hot with ants in all my bags.

From the time we stepped onto the property everything was amazing, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The property was very clean, the rooms were very clean and tastefully decorated. The property at night was very quiet, they have a restaurant on site but me and my wife wanted to explore the area and dined out but stopped back for a few beverages, breakfast in the morning was delicious and plentiful, they offer free transportation to the airport. I definitely recommend this place

The property looks great, but a little outdated, but that kind of adds to the charm. Breakfast was good an and the bar drinks strong. The staff will go out of their way to accommodate you. If they ever travel back to Palawan, they are my go to place

Dolce Vita, was a beautiful property just minutes from the airport. The rooms were very clean and spacious. All the staff was very helpful. The food from the restaurant/bar was delicious as well. They had all the Filipino classics. Definitely one of the nicest places we stayed while traveling through the Philippines. Absolutely would stay here again

My stay was perfectly fine. The hotel has some interesting architecture and was very well kept. It was comfortable, quiet and relaxing. I’d definitely stay there again were I to return to the area.
A beautiful exterior.
I agree with this statement in the restaurant/bar.
There were many beautiful sculptures like this.

Everything is perfect. It’s our first time in Palawan and we did enjoy out stay. I would like to commend ate Daphne at the reception for being patience with us and by accommodating our questions and requests. And kuya Patrick at the bar/restaurant area for making sure we are comfortable and was able to provide our dining needs. Thank you, Dolce Vita Hotel! We will surely be back when we return to Palawan!

This is a an older style hotel. It is in reasonably good condition for its age and has attractive wooden doors and windows. It is set back from the road and is mostly quiet. The grounds are well kept and the pool looked nice although I didn’t swim. The front desk people arranged tours and transportation for us. The restaurant food was good and it was a good price. Apparently they have a room deal that includes a breakfast but we just paid for it. They do have an airport shuttle which was very handy. One annoying policy is that they make you pay cash for your stay so watch your reserve. We had to walk down the main road trying 3 bank ATM’s before the 4th worked. The neighborhood seems to be par for Puerto Princesa, which is on the poor side, but we walked around during the day with no problems.

Nice hotel at the end of a street so it’s quiet. Air con noisy and leaked in room, otherwise room good. Restaurant disappointing, pleasant location next to the pool so could be a really lovely little oasis but the food is poor. Menu uninspiring and nothing fresh. Staff were lovely, very helpful and friendly
