Davao Hotel Reservations Guide and Other Word to the Wise

Are reservations in Davao hotels necessary? Yes! Confirmed reservations are crucial to the success of a trip to this exotic city, and any other world destination for that matter, that is, if you want to be the boss on how much you spend. Nowadays, it’s super easy to phone, fax, or email your reservations so long as you can guarantee them with your credit card.

So here are a few helpful reminders when making your reservations and inquiry at the best hotel in Davao:

·         The date of your stay, time of arrival and your flight number, and the total number of persons who will be staying with you.

·         The type and size of the room you will be needing. Whether they are double or twin beds, extra beds, you want adjoining rooms, non-smoking; you’re concerned about the quiet, and so on.

·         The facilities you want: shower and/or bathtub, private toilet, hall facilities, if there are any available and/or acceptable.

·         Room location: on the street, with a view, or at the back of the hotel.

·         The room rates: Find out what they’re nightly rate will be and if or not the VAT (value-added tax) is included, and the kind of breakfast they serve. This is your best chance to negotiate for discounts.

·         How much deposit is required and what form of payment is acceptable.

·         Note the time and date of your call, the name of the person you spoke with, and other particulars of your reservation. Make sure the rates are clearly spelled out, whether they will include breakfast, and if so, what kind and are there discounts that can be given. Take this with you together with your hotel’s confirmation.

·         Request that your hotel send you a confirmation of your reservation and bring this with you when you check in to avoid any possible mishaps. It doesn’t matter if it’s an expensive or cheap hotel in Davao, you’re better off doing this to save you from a ton of headaches.
