The Funny Lion - El Nido

The staff is very friendly and the facilities are clean since it was recently built. The breakfast was delicious and the beds were comfortable so I slept well in the evening. However, the outside rooms are next to the road, so there is a bit of noise, but other than that, it was very good. The pool was large and the location was within walking distance of town, so there wasn't much of a problem 😄😄 There is a private beach operated by the hotel (Papaya Beach), and I definitely recommend going there.

Excellent hotel! Very good location in the center of El Nido. The rooms are comfortable. The pool and bar are very good, and the buffet breakfast is the best, there is a lot of variety of local and western food. Compared to other hotels in El Nido this one is definitely among my favorites. The only thing I can criticize is the WIFI connection, the days I was there it was cut off all the time. Totally recommended!!

I had previously stayed at the Funny Lion on Coron, so I chose the same hotel without hesitation. And when I arrived in El Nido, I was upset. The hotel area is very small, in general it’s not scary, because the ocean is five minutes away. What's really bad is the location next to the road. You can hear it very much, especially when you sleep. The room is quite spacious and clean, but with ants. It is extremely rare for me to now see that bed linen is washed in a hotel with powder containing fragrances. For some reason this was the case here. I'm allergic to chemicals, I couldn't sleep. I had to lay out my things and lie down on them so as not to smell the powder. The price of the hotel is quite expensive, even unreasonably expensive. Yes, the staff is very nice, they always call you by name and are friendly. They get 5 points. Otherwise 3.5. I hope that the hotel managers will read my review and either change the pricing policy; here the price clearly needs to be reduced by 40-50%. Or they will carry out certain improvements. So far Funny Lion is on the Corona benchmark.

The service is very considerate! The staff will send greetings and take the initiative to chat at any time The room was a bit small, but maybe large for a hotel in El Nido.
