The nice and always smiley staff, the good position only 10mins walking distance from the baywalk, the good breakfast with fresh coffee from the machine, the swimming pool… a nice stay for the price we paid. And our bed was comfortable.

Bedrooms and toilet are too small for 2 and we didn’t know where to hang our clothes. Only a small wardrobe on a small corner but clothes couldn’t dry. The shower was good, hot shower and good pressure but water always on the floor, because of the wrong pavement slope.. so toilet was always wet. All room’s windows are facing the pool, so if you open the curtains everybody passing by can watch inside, but we didn’t care too much of this. But sometimes there were some small ants on the bed and walls.. even if we paid attention to not leave our food stuff inside the room there were always a few small ants a little bit around. Good for one-two nights stay.

The owner couldn't do enough for us , reserving a ground floor room,. booking trips, taxing us, assisting me with my disabled scooter. Nothing was to much trouble. The staff are very friendly and helpful, on arrival the owner placed our luggage in the room right by the pool and ushered us to dinning area to take free coffee, tea, hot chocolate, there were 4 choices of complimentary breakfast, all served with such care. You could ask for other food if you not like whats on offer. The pool was spotlessly clean.the pumps running all the time. The staff clean it every day. The hammocks by the pool and upstairs were real comfy. Good location 5 mins walk to town SM and other stores. Street Market. Close to ferry port and the airport both just a few mins by car. We booked one night initially and kept extending to a total of 5 night. The owner organised a massage for us in our room. 500php/hour.

There was nothing to dislike.

This property is a hidden gem! Perfectly located near SM and the baywalk, it’s just a quick 5-minute tuk-tuk ride from/to the airport—talk about convenience! The stay comes with delightful perks: a free breakfast to kickstart your day and unlimited coffee to keep you energized. To top it all off, you can unwind and relax in the inviting pool and sleep in the comfortable bed. Truly, everything you need is right here!

The occasional noise at midnight, when guests arrive, can be a bit noticeable—mainly conversations in the hallway or the sound of luggage being dragged. However, it’s usually brief and doesn’t disrupt the overall stay. A small tip for fellow travelers: lifting your luggage instead of dragging it and keeping voices low in the hallways can go a long way in ensuring a peaceful environment for everyone.

This hotel had the feel good factor from the moment we arrived and met by the owner who couldn't do enough for us. I'm a disabled male 73 my wife and I txt in advanced for a ground floor room, we recived a text , room reserved. On arrival was given a room right by the restaurant/pool perfect for me. We were invited to take unlimitef free coffee or tea "we don't drink either but what a nice gesture " then offered the complementary free breakfast choice of 4 options each day. Served with such care to detail by Ninoi and his wife. The pool was cleaned every day the filter pumps running for hours. The room was small clean and basic. Good WiFi We booked 1 night and extended to 5 nights. The owner offered us moto scooter at 500php/day or car at 1500php/day. The owner even booked a lady to come to our room and massage my wife and I. He booked us the famous sea cave tour, unfortunately cancelled due to Typhoon :-( Our flight was early morning , needed to be at the airport for 5.30am the owner was waiting for us 10 minutes early and dropped us right outside departures . We highly recommend this hotel.

Nothing to dislike

The place was very clean with friendly staff. The TV had a lot of channels both in Tagalog and English. I was able to catch NFL games during the stay. I would definitely stay there again if I go back to Puerto Princesa. I enjoyed use of the pool two nights I was there. The pool was clean and very relaxing. There was not a large number of people staying there which made it nice. The morning breakfast is cooked to order. The Bay Walk in a 10 minute walk at most. They famous 89 Cafe is a five minute walk. The Palawan Brewery is a five minute walk. We walked to Jollibee's in ten minutes and 5 minutes from Jollibee's on the same road is the SM Mall.

Only thing that would of made it perfect across the board is that there is no mini refrigerator or hair dyer in the rooms. For the price that is was ok. They have low prices and give you a clean room to sleep in with clean property.

I did a mistake in booking with the date (my mistake) but then, Sir Bert of Mariners Pension house helped us to find a solution with our problem. He even accompanied us to a other place. He even offered us to stay in the receiving area of their establishment with generous gesture. He is a very honest man (and help us with the refund) and very kind indeed, the staff are so polite and helpful too. The facilities are excellent and in a very good location. To Sir Bert, his family and staff, From the bottom of our hearts "Thank you" , May God continue to bless you abundantly❤️

Great location walking distance to Baywalk Park, restaurants, shopping, and other local attractions (e.g., Immaculate Conception Cathedral, Plaza Cuartel, Palawan Microbrewery). Excellent cooked-to-order breakfast included. Lunch and dinner also available. Super friendly and helpful staff! Very nice pool! Small but comfortable room with good air conditioning. Hot shower with good water pressure. Very reasonably priced airport shuttle service. Stayed 5 nights and would highly recommend this as a great base in Puerto Princesa City for exploring Palawan.

pool, all room have pool view, hammock, location is near public market, malls and tourist places in pps, baywalk is walking distance, underground tours, cafe, our tour was early morning so staff arrange breakfast for us early, airport transfer, wifi can be slow but they have backup wifi also. overall all good place to relax can book again

snacks have to be packed or else ants and cockroach can come if you leave door open vegetarian breakfast option can be mentioned along with regular.

It's the little things. It was obvious that the owners/staff cared about the customer experience. I appreciated that they provided shampoo and body wash in the bathroom. There was a cabinet in the room (I appreciated this because there isn't usually one). Breakfast and lunch were always freshly prepared/cooked. The staff was nice. I would come back and stay here if I returned to Puerto Princesa. I would recommend the place to other people too.

Check-in experience could be improved from the Booking.com part. Staff at Mariner's Pension House handled the issue well. This isn't a criticism of the Pension House. The criticism is against Booking.com

Most comfortable, very clean and friendly pension in Puerto Princesa! -have cold water /drinks on arrival, then can buy more at street vendor prices, mini supermarket with 2 min noodles, snacks etc, cold beer / drinks! -can eat good food at their restaurant, which would suit families or people that dont want to deal with street hassles or see outdoor markets. -Tricycles out front or closeby -The breakfast was amazing!! Pancake, & egg bacon or Filipino option, plus coffee, juice. -excellent cool and upstairs area to relax -super friendly staff Delbert, kept our bags after check out, didnt mind that we stayed there for a few hours while waiting for our next transfer -Delbert called the transfer van company on our behalf and negotiated for us! -Delbert organsed best value tours for us in Puerto Princesa. Not inflated prices like larger hotels -very honest and friendly staff. You can tell they want to help and make ur stay as easy as possible, Nonoy the chef is lovely

The hotel is a little older than newer hotels, but for what you pay it is exceptional!! - it is a bit noisy, so maybe ask for a room at the back away from the street -but much less noise after 9pm
