It was so close to the beach. The room was great for the price. It's walking distance to the main town for the tours. Hot and cold water was provided all day. Good wifi. The staff are friendly and helpful. I loved staying here.
The name of the property is confusing as it was hard to find as nobody knew what it was. It is actually owned by Eco Hotels. So it should be renamed so guests can find it quickly. They should also put more hooks and shelves in the room to help with storage.

Great budget option, amazing sunsets.
Posted 9 Apr 2023 on HotelsAfter reading other reviews I was preparing myself for the worst but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The biggest problem was finding the hotel - it’s actually connected to the Eco Suites hotel, and the name Dormitels is nowhere to be seen. It’s also marked wrong on the map - follow Google maps and you’ll find it. I walked up and down the beach for 20 minutes with my stuff searching for the hotel.
Check in was fast and easy. My room was fine. The rooms are small, but comfortable. Double bed, Air conditioning and private bathroom. The water is not great but this is normal in this area of Palawan. You can shower and wash hands, however, need to use bottled water to brush teeth etc. there was only cold water in the shower, but for me that was fine as it was boiling hot anyway. The location is stunning. The beach is seconds from the room - and sunsets are insane here. I walked into El Nido town every morning to do the boat trips - it took about half an hour. Or 100 pesos for a tricycle. Loads of great food options right by the hotel too.

Close to beach but construction site.
Posted 28 Jan 2017Pro's: clean but basic rooms, nice staff, reasonable breakfast available on site. Right next to Corong Corong beach and some nice restaurants. Reasonable rates.
Con's: massive construction works underway with site workers living behind the rooms and working at the front. Walls are very thin. Generally noisy.

Good for the price
Posted 14 Jan 2017The room was simple yet adequate. We were allocated a room a while away from the actual hotel but it was ok. We accidentally booked a double fan room, but got an aircon room anyway which was nice. There is a lot of construction going on around the grounds, but El Nido is growing at a rapid rate so this is to be expected, it's certainly not the fault of the hotel or staff. The little coffee shop in the ally on the left going up to the main road has the best omelettes ever! All in all a good stay and staff were pleasant.
