La politesse et la disponibilité du personnel
La plage avec la marrée basse.
Personnel sympathique, très bon restaurant franco vietnamien. Vue sur une belle mangrove. Piscine chaude et belle.
Chambres trop petites. Revoir la composition des breakfast box.
Everything especially the Staff and the amenities.

Lovely staff. Beautiful room and decor and setting
A lot of ugly building infrastructure all around hotel as you walk around that hopefully will be better hidden by landscaping etc over time
This is such a beautiful hotel from an aesthetic point of view, the design is stunning, there is so much attention to detail. The rooms are large and the beds are very comfortable. It has everything you could possibly need and more and the restaurants serve delicious food. Once again though, the thing that really stands out and the thing that seems very consistent across the Philippines is the outstanding hospitality. Staff are simply incredible, they are so friendly, so helpful and will bend over backwards to ensure you have a 10 star experience. They even make an effort to learn your name and these little touches go such a long way. I've had great hospitality experiences across many different countries but the Philippines is number one by a country mile. Unbelievably good, I can't rate them highly enough.
That we only stayed one night!
We absolutely loved our stay at The Funny Lion. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, the property felt modern and luxurious, and the pool area was beautiful. The breakfast was excellent each morning, and the restaurants on-site were surprisingly very good. The room itself was clean, comfortable, and had strong AC which made a huge difference for sleeping comfortably.
Honestly, not much. The location is slightly outside the main tourist area, but transportation into town was still easy and we actually appreciated the quieter atmosphere because it made the stay feel more peaceful and relaxing.
Very friendly staff, big hotel room, very modern and beautiful. Nice food, great massage. The swimmingpool was very nice. We were surprised to get complimentary snacks in the morning and the afternoon.
- everything was great! Maybe one tip: it would be nice if the staff passed by the guests a bit more, at the swimmingpool. That would rise the amount of drinks you sell on the hot days we had in May.
Alles.. het eten, gratis gebruik van amenities. De vriendelijkheid van personeel en vooral de locatie

Attractive presentation, very clean and well maintained, extremely friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast. Very good restaurants, specially the French-Vietnamese G75 (better to make reservation if planning to attend).

Great pool Great staff, very helpful Lovely rooms Felt pampered Great atmosphere
Coffee shop could also offer some tea selections and soft drinks Outdoor Lobby area is really nice but for insistence on coffee
Customer service was amazing. Everyone in this hotel would be friendly, kind and helpful. They make the effort to learn your name since day one that is a nice touch. The breakfast buffet was really good too, and they have a tiny gym with the basics for a decent workout plus AC & Speaker, which was greatly appreciated.
The food as the day restaurant was not bad but the menu was very small. We stayed 3 days and I felt it could have had more options, but nothing major in terms of issues.
Nous avons tout aimé si bien que nous avons prolongé le sejour ! J ai deja laissé mon avis sur un autre commentaire donc pour me répéter tout etait parfait et particulièrement l acceuil que nous y avons reçu. Le personnel du funny lion est exceptionnel ! Très poli , souriant , bienveillant, attentionné et d un tres grand professionnalisme. Merci à eux encore une fois ! C est sur que nous y retournerons si l occasion se présente.
Alors juste si il fallait vraiment mettre quelque chose je dirai la diversité des plats végétariens sur la carte . Mais a chaque fois ils ont pu m adapter quelque chose avec du tofu donc c etait tres bien .
Nous avons tout aimé c est simple. Rien a reprocher. Tout est parfait . Et alors une mention spéciale pour le personnel de cet établissement qui est d une extrême gentillesse, d un professionnalisme sans faille , toujours souriant , poli , attentionné , et bienveillant. Merci a eux pour l acceuil parfait . La prochaine fois nous passerons directement par eux et non pas via booking qui a fait absolument n importe quoi avec nos réservations ! Heureusement que le personnel du funny lion etait là pour resoudre nos problèmes ! Le cadre est merveilleux, la piscine magnifique. On mange tres bien . Plein de petites attentions quand nous revenons dans la chambre . Tout le monde est au petit soin. La literie est parfaite . Bravo le funny lion !
Absolument rien tout est parfait !
Es war schön ruhig und man konnte entspannen.
Die Zimmer sind ok eingerichtet und im Vergleich der Anlage, schon ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen. Bei uns musste man auch jedes Mal, die Sicherung für Strom neu starten.
The staff was very friendly and kind.
The restaurant is the worst I have ever experienced at a resort.

Tout était parfait !! Un environnement très agréable et à proximité de l'aéroport. Un service très aimable et attentionné. Je recommande vivement cet établissement.
Lovely hotel with fantastic food, staff are really kind and courteous !! Swimming pool is lovely !!
The DECORATION of the hotel: WOW. The STAFF!!!! Never seen more NICE staff in my life!!!! The restaurant!!! The food!! THE POOL: again : WOW. I’ve been traveling through the world and maybe this was one of the best hotel I ve ever been to!
Everything perfect
Great design taste Only problem … as you have a quality kitchen wanted to try your interpretation … but you had Ty.out and could not make one .. very disappointed
Hotel incrível
Breakfast was excellent as were the two restaurants on site.
The ocean was visible, but around a half mile away. When the tide went out, there was just wet sand all the way to the breakers.
Tutto fantastico, curato ogni minimo dettaglio . Uno dei migliori resort della zona, vi consiglio vivamente di mangiare lì perché il cibo è il migliore della zona. La location, una cosa meravigliosa dal servizio di benvenuto fino la piscina. Gli avevo

Cet établissement fait partie des meilleurs de Puerto Princesa sans conteste !! Personnel au top, mention spécial à Ahl toujours très serviable et qui entend les remarques qu’on peut lui faire pour proposer un meilleur service derrière
La vue depuis la Piscine reste exceptionnelle, ce qui en fait probablement son succès une des plus belles vue que j’ai pu avoir parmi tous les hôtels que je fais
Petit déjeuner très basique, mais surtout ciblé, asiatique, les viennoiseries affreuses, la décoration des années 60, grosse rénovation de la Piscine paraît plus que nécessaire. Les carreaux se décollent de partout et je ne parle pas des chambres ou tout ce qui est décoration et meubles sont très basiques. Le parquet stratifié qui se décolle de partout. L’hôtel aurait également besoin d’une belle rénovation, d’après les commentaires que nous avions vu effectivement il y a des odeurs un peu partout. Ce n’était pas le cas dans notre chambre mais dans les Ascenseurs.
tolles neues Hotel, freundliche und hilfsbereite Mitarbeiter
leider werden die Sonnenschirme bei Wind geschlossen, da es hier sehr windig ist, immer. Da müsste eine feste Installation zum Schatten spenden her!
The hotel is modern, comfortable and very beautiful. The pool is lovely and the beach view is very pretty. There are lots of activities to do (kayaking, cycling, archery) and the hotel can help with tours and transfers. Restaurant is also very nice and the food is good. Staff are excellent, very helpful and friendly.
It was beautiful and the staff were more than helpful and friendly. And the food in their restaurants were amazing! In the evening, they bring cookies to your door, just something I thought was nice.
Très bel hôtel où nous n’avons passé qu’une nuit après notre atterrissage. La chambre était grande et bien équipée, nous avons profité de la superbe piscine le matin avant de partir en voiture de location, mais notre meilleur souvenir est le dîner au restaurant. Les plats vietnamiens étaient excellents et les desserts dignes des meilleurs pâtissiers français.
Je n’ai pas mis 10 car - l’hôtel est tout en longueur et nous avions une chambre assez éloignée du restaurant et de la piscine, - le coffre ne fonctionnait pas et il a fallu faire remplacer les piles, - la mer est impraticable à marée basse.
Was a really beautiful hotel. The facilities were really excellent. The location was great for us though we did have a car. Beautiful pool, beautiful staff, great food, archery and kayaks etc. I wish we stayed longer but we moved into El Nido where we stayed at the very expensive H Hotel which to be frank is really disappointing and ridiculously over priced.
I tried to find one thing. I came up with this. We stayed in 124 which is the closest room to the restaurant and pool so every single guest walked past our room. I think you should put a get up to at least force guests to use the outer path rather than the one right outside the door.
The amenities are nice, the place is cozy and perfect for relaxation.
The choices of food, the food is good and taste are very good but not what you want to find in filipino food. Try serving a local filipino food.
Eigenlijk was er niet echt iets waarvan wij waaauw zouden zeggen.. Meer gewoontjes, ik snap niet waar die super recensies van komen..
De zeer jonge crew deed waarschijnlijk wel hun best maar missen daar iemand die hun wat aanvuurt, oog voor detail leert hebben.. Kleine dingetjes die toch wel ergerlijk zijn, zelfs op vakantie.. een safe die heel uw verblijf niet werkt, ook niet na 2 x melding.. een versgeperste appelsiensap bestellen die er geen is, ook wel niet aangerekend, geen 1 fles rosé in het hotel te krijgen.. en traag is mooi, zeker op vakantie maar het moet ook niet op uw zenuwen gaan werken.. 25 minuten wachten op een drankje aan de bar, waar bijna geen mens zit..
Cozy and quiet and close to the airport
Too many mozzies and expensive food and the beach is not swimmable
It is beautifully designed. Very boutique hotel style in facilities
No balcony but did have a basic room
הצוות המקסים. המיקום בחוף המנגרובים. אוירה נהדרת ורוגעת
יש מקום לשיפור בארוחת הבוקר והמגוון.
It was clean and the staff were lovely.
It’s a massive concrete block, all grey and very depressing. The hotel and the rooms are just bleak! The sink is in the room and not the bathroom - always lovely to watch and listen to your room mate brush his teeth. Air conditioning in the room was very noisy, oh and don’t forget the planes that fly low over the hotel all night.
The room,the breakfast the staff the pool
Fantastic hotel. Staff so friendly and accommodating. They went above and beyond to decorate our room for my wife's birthday. Very comfortable bed and food to die for. Well recommended.
Only a small niggle, problem with our safe was never resolved after asking twice at reception...
Everything was perfect. We really enjoyed our stay. The staff was super friendly and helpful.
We loved the location - it’s secluded yet close to everything. The food, the drinks, the staff, our room… literally everything was absolutely perfect. We really felt at home. We hope to come back again!
The breakfast was great, many choices, and delicious. Staff was excellent, professional and pleasant.
No complaints!
Très bel établissement avec un personnel au petit soin. Bon restaurant intra hôtel.
Ein sehr moderner Komplex , sehr viel Beton ! Das Personal ist hervorragend organisiert und der Service ist sehr gut! Schade ist die Größe des Balkons ca. 30 cm und der Ausblick ! 30 cm mehr hätten die Möglichkeit auf eine Sitzgelegenheit gegeben! Das Meer ist nicht zum baden geeignet, aber die Freundlichkeit des Personals macht das alles wieder gut ! Ich kann dieses Hotel auf jeden Fall empfehlen !
Loved the place it truly is a hidden little gem. Great food, great service. Only negative is that it got windy at night .
The wind near the restaurant
It was a nice stay. But we stayd to long and it was impossible to get a late chck out....
Excellent property and service in Puerto Princesa. Very comfortable with exceptional quality of service.
Nothing comes to mind
The staff was great the place was very clean the location was good
There was no beach and the pool closed early
Вежливый персонал, много приятных комплиментов для гостей, чистый бассейн и очень вкусные завтраки, в номерах чисто и уютно.
Периодически в районе бассейна чувствовался запах канализации, но это совсем не портит впечатление о гостинице и персонале. Надеемся, что скоро найдут причину возникновения запаха и это устранят.
Tutto perfetto!

Geruch vom Meer bei Ebbe am Pool.
Que era limpio y moderno,el Personal amable y la comida bastante buena
Los masajes no son nada buenos y el servicio en cocina a veces era despistado
It was great personalised experience. The staff were amazing.
The beach facing the property is not swimmable because of the mangroves. But we had an idea before going there.
Que no te puede gustar ? Es un lugar increíble y cuidado hasta el más mínimo detalle. Nos encantó este hotel
The pool is amazing, with the view on the ocean, beautiful. Love having the two restaurants on site, the spa, the beautiful gym, bikes to go to town, little attentions like drinks on arrival, little gifts, airport transfer etc
Not much to do around the hotel
We spent only two nights at the hotel, but it was truly unforgettable. We enjoyed the spa and a wonderful relaxing massage, paddled a kayak out to the sandbar, and explored the nearby mangrove areas — all of which made the stay even more special. The staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and genuinely professional. Their kindness made us feel like a king and queen throughout our stay. The meals were delicious, and the overall design and atmosphere of the hotel were absolutely stunning — beautifully planned and a pleasure to experience. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay exceptional. We can’t wait to return!
The weather wasn’t great and all tours were cancelled because of it, but of course this was not the resort’s fault.
The property was pristine and the accomodations were excellent. Staff were very, very friendly and tended to our needs. Mike the General Manager was very visible and talked to us daily. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Funny Lion. Thank you!
