Hop Inn Hotel Cebu City
Stayed for 4 nights. Staff were great and special thanks to Erika at reception assisting us to contact our driver touring Cebu city. Very convenient, 7-11 is by the side of the hotel. Room is ok but needs some rubber matt in the shower room especially for old people as it's so slippery when wet. ...

Radisson Blu Cebu
Nice room! Bathroom could use a little bit of updating, but otherwise it was a nice and fairly spacious room. The buffet breakfast is definitely a highlight. Great location with walking access to the mall for restaurants and shopping, and an easy cab ride to other parts of the city.
