Golden Gate Suites

Close to the center and transport services, public market

good room overall. had struggle at first with adjusting the aircon settings (because iy doesn't initially work) but was all good

security deposit was required for an inexpensive accommodation, dispenser water is available for free but must pay for bottled water, bidet located on the left side

Clean

Cost

It was available with no notice.

No shower curtain, no toiletries, tattered towels. Music in the alleyway was constant. They kept most of my deposit stating a towel was “stained”. I looked at it later. It was dirt from my slippers. Not stain. They put water bottles in the room and charge on checkout.

I book the matrimonial deluxe suite and it was a small little stuffy room that i really could never stay in. I upgraded to a suite and it was much more spacious and they came in and gave it a good cleaning for me. I stayed an extra three nights at total of five because the location was central in dumaguete. No opening windows to the outside and i had a hard time getting fresh air. Not a bad place but maybe 5 days was too much.

No window to the outside which may getting fresh air difficult

Really friendly and accommodating staff. Secure and safe.

No good workspace in the room to use laptop, aside from sitting up in the bed. There was a chair, but not really effective desk space.

Staff were very pleasant

, and hot shower

Except for the lady checking us out staff very friendly

I paid for two extra nights after my first 3 nights stay and on leaving they wanted extra 500 pesos although I had already paid for the room as they said it was a higher standard room. I stayed in two different rooms they use words like deluxe etc they are all basic of low quality

Location was superb.

Room was clean , peaceful & quite . It also accessible to trikes and near malls and restaurant and 7/11 is just on the same building . Overall we liked our stay 👍💗

We appreciated the free water and kettle for making hot drinks. The reception staff were very professional. Appreciate the ability to check our bags at check out while we still did city sight seeing.

There was some confusion of what was being purchased. When I booked the room I thought we were getting the family room with 2 beds, but got the room with 2 beds. Much cheaper but very small for 2 adults. The AC was quite noisy. No windows to the outside.

I booked at Golden Gates years back, it went great! I recently booked again at GG because of my previous experience with them. Golden Gates again was a great experience. Staff were very nice and professional. My flight was rebooked and I needed to stay an extra night, the transition was very fast and easy. Stores are nearby to purchase any necessities. If I’m ever in Dumaguete again, I’ll be staying at Golden Gates without hesitation.

1️⃣ Top on the list is the Location. It’s very accessible to almost all important offices and stores. Convenience store just outside the hotel, police station, arcade and fast food near by, walking distance spa and salon, supermarket, pharmacy, boulevard, and many more. 2️⃣ Second on the list is the Shower. The Hot and Cold shower is consistent according to our set preference, Since day 1 up to day 5, their shower temperature has been the most relaxing bath time we had. 3️⃣ Third on the list is the WIFI. All throughout the almost a week stay at the hotel, the wifi has been working effectively. We can simultaneously access various work sites and emails, while playing youtube on the background and scrolling social sites on multiple gadgets without having to worry about the internet speed. 4️⃣ Others: ✅Orderliness of the Room, ✅Free Hot, Warm, and Cold Water Refill at the Dispenser provided outside each floor, ✅Quiet Hotel Room, ✅Easy Access to Front desk via landline.

There is almost none, though we had a bit of an exercise since there is no elevator. We had to use stairs every time we go up and down the third floor room. It would be better if there will be an elevator in the near future.

I like the location

The stairs is too high and no elevator is available😅

A reasonable hotel a way back from the sea front

The "view" was a brick wall. Very dark. Felt like being in a cave. Surrounding area is grubby.

The bathroom had no mirror hard to shave with no mirror and the 2nd time the shower was very small

Location of the hotel

Staffs were friendly and accommodating

The AC not so cold

Great for a one night stay. Room is small but clean and was just fine for what we needed.

Toilet was broken but I fixed it.

The advertising pictures look nice but once you are LOCKED IN and PAID for everything, you are committed. There is NO window per room. The first room smelled like urine and cigarettes and oh yeah, it just so happened that when I walked in the building, they started working on MAINTENANCE hammering on first floor. This means the loud hammering carries upstairs. But once you shut the door, since there is no window, it is not bad. They did transfer to a room that is clean and quiet but the smell of wet toilet or mold will bother your sensitive noise. Please use CLOROX to remove mold and urine odor. Rooms must be aired out.

It was central. My room was quiet. Air conditioning good. Some cups for my tea. Hot and cold water available every day. Good TV with sport and films in english

My room wasn't cleaned once in 5 nights. Had to ask for toilet paper as I ran out. Nowhere to put toothbrush or soap by the sink

golden gate has been my choice when staying in dumaguete. The location is at the center of everything, few blocks away from the boulevard, they have 7-11 right below the hotel, across of it are nearby pharmacy, market (where you can buy budbud - their delicacy) and places to eat.

Good value and central. Short walk from the promenade. Was quiet at night. Had a window although not all rooms do.

Bit musty but not uncomfortably so. Could do with a kettle and cups.

location excellent, easy check in , pleasant staff.

nothing

all.. the room are very simples and look old

Noisy, very basic

Right in the center

No elevator

Friendly staff, convenient to most everything in Dumaguete, 24hr shop at the entrance, the c/c and shower worked well. Water dispenser in the hall that provides both cold and very hot water!

Very small room.

The location is good

The room was insect infested and did not smell good

The staff are super-friendly and the location of the hotel is downtown central, so in the heart of the city and relatively close to the beach and usual city type stores if needed. As old as the rooms looked, they were very clean. Bearing in mind that there aren't that many choices for a hotel in downtown Dumaguete and that this is a budget-type hotel, it was fine for a 2-night stay.

Rooms are looking worn, tired and old. They are well overdue a lick of paint and some basic maintenance... especially in the bathrooms.

the room is enough for three people . it is clean. location is at the heart of the city. easy to get transport services like tricycles. there are stores at the ground floor which makes it more convenient if we need to buy something. it is also just a block away from the police station so it makes the place even more safe. the staff is very accommodating and friendly.

nothing

Location and staff great. Very accommodating. Internet was good.

Sheet was very thin, bed was a bit on the firm side. No bidet or bucket. Shower was moldy and the room had a moldy smell.

I will forver choose Golden Gates whener I visit Dumaguete. The location is just perfect for me.

IT IS OK ... NO ELEVATOR

NO ELEVATOR

At the heart of the town. There is a 7 eleven downstairs. Affordable room. There is a water dispenser available on each floor.

No elevator / lift, no bidet.

We are satisfied with the quality for the price that we paid. However, be careful not to break any cup because they're very expensive. Our toddler broke a cup and we were charged 380 PHP (6.24€ ~). If it ever happens to you, better get a replacement from Novo,it won't cost you more than 50 PHP. Cheers!

Close to town

Place is clean and staff are good....

Small area

Original room very basic, no refrigerator, room small, no storage, bathroom basic. Upgraded to suite, nery satisfied, room large ample storge, kitchenette(two burners didn't work, but hot plate and micfrowave functional). bathroom with bidet.

not happy with original room, pleased with upgrade. Stair very steep( original room third floor, upgrade second floor)

it was ok

wifi is good and comfy pillows

stairs

the staffs were really great, they were all good people.

what I didn"t like about our room, the toilet really stinks I'm sorry but that really bothers me. we had to buy cleaning products like zonrox, scotch brite, powder soap and room disinfectant and we really did clean it thinking that the foul smell of toilet would be gone. but I think theres nothing much to do about it. the smell of the bathroom is really awful. we did ask the staff to have it clean but when we return, the smell is still there so we decided to do it ourselves. but didn't really help, the smell of stinky urine still lingers.

I like the room.very clean plus the free water provided in every floor

I would rate it 10 if there is an elevator.

Location,friendly staff

No refrigerator in room

In the heart of action, stayed here to experience downtown, I enjoyed the education, extended my stay till the 12th

Nothing I don't expect..
