Puerto Princesa, Palawan: Ysabelle Mansion - Hotel Review

on
Having a good accommodation when traveling somewhere is an important consideration for me. Well not in the level of luxury hotels and high-end resorts, just a comfy place to stay with complete basic amenities, clean toilet, and of course soft beds and pillows, I'm satisfied.

Ysabelle Mansion is located just near Puerto Princesa Airport, actually only around 5 to 10-minute ride by van or tricycle. The good thing with Ysabelle Mansion is that they have a free airport van transfers so commuting to and from the hotel is not a concern. Their airport van is well air-conditioned, spacious and comfortable, and can accommodate up to 12 passengers.

TRAVEL TIP: Kindly contact Ysabelle Mansion days prior your flight and let them know of your airline schedule so they can fetch you at the airport on time. The hotel driver will hold a placard with your name on it! :)

If you ask me if I will recommend this hotel to other travelers, definitely a YES! If given the chance again to set foot in Puerto Princesa, I won't have second thoughts booking a night here.
