Nice hotel with green garden
Nice hotel with green garden. The hotel is little bit outdated but it's very clean. The room was spacious and has nice balcony. It takes 5-7 minutes to walk to the beach.

Quiet location and a nice pool. Room was pleasant but basic, "Free toiletries" means soap, "Safe and desk" means desk. About 1/3 of the quoted 30m2 is the balcony. Queen bed was made up with 2 small singles, mattresses were awful, sank in the middle, no support at all. Breakfast not recommended, ingredients were substituted or omitted and the beef was inedible - better options are available nearby (try Dos Mestizos). Granted this is one of the cheaper Boracay options with pool, but

Nice hotel for its price
GOOD POINTS: Spacious family room w/ veranda, cheap, convenient, quiet, just 2-minute away by foot to the beach and very near the most fun and adventures the Boracay island can offer. BAD POINTS: 1) At the room 201 assigned to us, its bathroom/CR has no proper ventilation and has poor drainage -- no exhaust fan (so any undesirable smell in the bathroom/CR will spread out inside the room) and tends to be flooded always. 2) No assistance from the staff when we checked out at around 5:15 AM OTHERS: We haven't tried their restaurant as we always eat out most of the time so can't say anything about it.

Wonderful resort.
This was my second stay at Tonglen and both times it has been great. Staff is friendly and helpful. Location is great, a 5 minute walk to the beach and far enough away where it is quiet at night. It advertises Wifi in public areas but I was able to pick it up inside my room.

Nice quiet place
Nice quiet place to stay in away from the busy crowds. The rooms are clean & you have your own veranda - gives you a sense of privacy compared to big hotels with a lot of rooms. Beds are comfortable. The beach is a slight walk which is ok with me but inconvenient for those who don't like walking. Cable tv is available & a mini-fridge in the room. Wi-fi & cellphone signal is pretty bad inside the groundfloor room but ok when you step outside. There's a nearby convenience store open 24/7 for emergency supplies. The staff are nice & helpful and the place is well maintained. I recommend this place for those on a budget & are traveling with family (including kids).

Our Tonglen Boracay getaway
We arrived late at night for our flight with Philippine Airlines was delayed by almost 23 hrs. The receptionist Maribel was nice. We stayed there for 2 days and 2 nights. While I could see that the rooms most especially the wall need a re-paint, it's still a nice place to stay. Staff are friendly and most of all, very quiet. Will recommend to my friends to stay here.

Spacious & quiet resort but not beachfront
We are a family of 6 and stayed in this hotel for 3 nights. Rooms are spacious as well as the resort grounds. Pool size is also just right. The only inconvenience is the walk to the beach as there is an ongoing road construction near La Carmela. Roads are wet and muddy. Over all stay in Tonglen is good. Got also a very good rate from Expedia!

Good location but insufficient room aircon
The place is okay for 2/3 star hotel. It is near the beach with just 5 minutes walk. It is also near the D' Talipapa where you can buy fresh seafoods and have it cooked in the nearby restaurants. The hotel, however, needs to change their airconditonig units as those are pretty small that it cannot make the rooms cool.

Fridfullt hotell 5-10 min promenad från stranden
Lugnt hotellområde. Trevlig personal. Bra storlek på poolen. Stor balkong. Om man sitter på balkongen under kvällstid bör man använda myggmedel. En fläkt hade varit skönt att ha på balkongen. Luftkonditioneringen på rummet var bra. Daglig städning. Hotellet organiserar transfer till och från flygplatsen. Kostar 750 pesos per person för enkel resa. Dock tillkommer 100 pesos för färjeterminals-avgift, miljöavgift 75 pesos och flygterminals-avgift 700 pesos per person. Endast kontant betalning.

Mysigt hotell
Ett jättemysigt hotell. Kanske 7 minuters gångavstånd till white beachvolleyboll. Enda nackdelen var att restaurangen på hotellet tog lång tid på sig och vi fick sällan äta tillsammans. Annars rena stora rum, mycket tillmötesgående personal.

Helt ok hotell
Vi var där 3 nätter. Hotellet ligger mellan båtstation 2 och 3 på White beach. Bra läge, bra pool och trevlig personal på receptionen. Men vi saknade safety box på rummet samt nån sorts hylla i badrummet. Hårtork och vattenkokare fanns inte heller. De städade varje dag. Wi-fi funkade inte på rummet men på balkongen kunde man använda wi-fi. Badrummet var väldigt sliten, rostig kran vid handfatet samt sliten toalett. Det finns en pingisbord i trädgården samt en mindre pool. Om man vill ha hög standard då får man välja ett annat hotell men annars duger det.

Vernünftiges Hotel zu gutem Preis
Wir waren 3 Wochen zu Gast. - Die vielen Pflanzen und Palmen haben mir sehr gefallen, ist mal etwas anderes als diese Hotelbunker. - Unser Zimmer hatte: eine Dusche dessen Warmwasser einmal nicht mehr ging (wurde aber innerhalb eines Tages repariert); Mini Kühlschrank; Klimaanlage (etwas laut und alt) aber wenn man nicht all zu empfindlich ist, passt das auch; Fernseher (habe ich aber nie eingeschaltet) - Das Essen im Restaurant war gut - Das Personal war in Ordnung - Der Pool ist häufig dreckig, tägliches schwimmen war mir deswegen nicht möglich. - Ein paar russische Nachbarn haben sehr viel Lärm gemacht und gestört - Viele Moskitos (ist wahrscheinlich nicht vermeidbar) Ich würde aber wieder buchen und kann es empfehlen. Preis-Leistungsmäßig einwandfrei.

현지느낌을 느낄수있고 가성비 좋은곳
저렴한 가격에 수영장을 이용할수 있다. 현지느낌이 나는곳이라 좋고 룸도 생각보다 큰편이었다. 룸앞에 발코니, 넓은 정원, 시원한 에어컨등 만족했다. 불만족한것은 어떤직원들은 불친절하고 화난표정이다. 12시가 지나면 메인도로쪽 문을 닫는다

Hôtel accueillant mais pas très bien placé
L'hôtel ne se trouve pas au meilleur emplacement de l'île et a cinq minutes de marche de la plage, donc le soir vous serez obligé de prendre un taxi moto ou tuktuk pour vous rendre aux endroits festif de l'île. Les chambres sont des appartements dans plusieurs petites maisons, ce qui est assez jolie, par contre il y a énormément de moustiques lorsqu'on reste sur la térasse, et le wifi évidament ne fonctionne pas dans la chambre (uniquement sur la térasse)

리조트를 찾았는데 앞문이 잠겨있고 주인은 잠까지들어 들어가는데만 몇시간을 소비했다 그리고 겨우 들어간 방에선 온갖벌레와 도마뱀이 우릴 맞이했고 경직된 자세로 잠시 눈만 붙이고 나올 뿐이었다 당장 나오고 싶었지만 새벽이라 거의 뜬눈으로 지샌것과 다름없이 있다 나왔다

편의시설이 가까움, 조용함
스테이션2와 3 사이에 위치하고 앞뒤로 보면 뒤쪽 메인도로에 정원이 붙어 있다. 해변은 도보로 10분 정도 걸리고 주변에 편의점과 빵집과 경찰서 등등 편의시설이 많아 편리하다. 해변에서 조금 떨어져 있어 조용하다. 조금 오래된 리조트이지만 직원들이 대체로 친절하고 시설도 나쁘지 않은 편이다. 다만 따뜻한 물이 항상 나오지는 않고 어떤 시간에는 찬물만 나오는 경우가 있다. 내부에 풀장이 있어 물놀이를 즐기고 선탠을 하기에도 좋다. 4인 가족이 이용하기에 충분하고 가격도 저렴한 편인데 가격 대비 좋은 숙소라고 생각한다.
