Radisson Blu Cebu
Nice room! Bathroom could use a little bit of updating, but otherwise it was a nice and fairly spacious room. The buffet breakfast is definitely a highlight. Great location with walking access to the mall for restaurants and shopping, and an easy cab ride to other parts of the city.
