After a long journey from Europe, Entering Grand Octagon Resort greets you with a welcoming staff. From the gates, there they carried and assisted us with our luggage then escorted us to their Front Desk. Front Desk officers appeared accommodating and welcoming. I have observed with the staff which I totally liked and approved that they walked around the resort... More

Just about everything worked as expected, the place was clean. Not quite to western standards, and maybe not quite as good as some resorts in the same price range in the Visayas, but very good for the area. Very friendly and competent staff. The internet did keep dropping, which necessitated regular calls to the front desk for a reset. However... More

I stayed only one night but would go back any time. I have travelled very extensively in the Philippines and I thought that the Grand Octagon offered very good value for money. It is not in the city center but I am happy with that. It is closer to the airport. My level 2 room in the front building was... More

Jean and her superb team of friendly helpers make this authentic place a dream for every traveller. I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights. It's very clean and it has its own colonial character. Going to Laoag City can easily be done by trike and for some diner or a jump in the swimming pool you can simply stay... More

And we were not disappointed. Ms. Jean, the owner, together with... More

I am delighted to add my voice to the chorus of commendation for the transformation of the place into a virtual paradise from an otherwise bucolic atmosphere. The excellent service as well as the food complement the relaxed environment. Definitely good value validating the Ilocano trait of frugality. This place is a must when planning a trip to the northwest... More

the rate is reasonable but the service is very poor, especially the crews, the front desk attendant is always not in the area. sometimes they're sleeping during there duty..no one attended, everytime we need it..sometimes we caught them drinking liquor. More

Had the pleasure of staying at Grand Octagon resort a few days ago with my family. We booked two rooms and settled 50% downpayment, so we had no problem during check in. The manager responded quickly to email inquiries, and service was excellent, considering that many of their staff were on-the-job trainees. It was actually a plus because they were... More
