One day, our boss wanted to see the Philippines’ Underground River and decided to take her Philippine team to Puerto Princesa, Palawan! No ifs, ands, or buts! Let’s go!

Yep, I’m one #blessed corporate working momma! 😊

We had to skip the simplicity of cool B&Bs of Puerto Princesa since our boss from Aus was with us.  So we ended up booking three separate rooms in one of the high-end accommodations in Palawan, Best Western Plus The Ivywall Hotel.

This modern midscale hotel in Puerto Princesa boasts of Best Western’s world-famous services standards and an elegant contemporary design that is uniquely Filipino.

The hotel’s well-decorated high-ceiling lobby will surely give any visitor a world-class feel.

And the rattan furniture all around will no doubt give every tourist a glance of  Philippines’ irresistible charm and beauty.

 

All its 120 guest rooms and suites come with an array of amenities including free Wi-Fi.

 

 

My room was so cool and cozy that I didn’t have a hard time expressing milk for my baby even if I was away from home.  The ever reliable Avent double electric breast pump was my room mate for this quick escapade.

 

 

My OC-girly girl self’s check list was satisfied. 😊  Hair dryer – check! Disposable slippers – check! Bidet – check! Free toiletries – check!

And, of course, free breakfast buffet – check!

 

The Ivywall Puerto Princesa hotel also offers the following facilities perfect for both leisure and business travelers:

• Business center
• Valet parking / indoor car park
• Anibong All-day dining restaurant
• Outdoor swimming pool
• Complimentary WiFi throughout the hotel
• Hotel Outlets
• Anibong All-day Dining Restaurant
• Balayong Grill & Bar
• Massage Service

Best Western Plus The Ivywall Hotel also has a great location. By car, the hotel is only a few minutes away from the international airport.  The UNESCO World Heritage-listed Puerto Princesa Underground River is also just 1.5 hours’ drive away from the hotel.  Plus, Ka Lui, Puerto Princesa’s famous restaurant is within walking distance from it.  What more can you ask for?

So if you’re planning your next Puerto Princesa tour, whether with your family or with your boss, keep in mind The Ivywall Hotel. 🙂
