Radisson Blu Cebu
Nice room, great place to stay. The only disappointment was that our flight got in at 11:45am, but check-in wasn't until 3pm, and they could not accomodate an early check-in, in spite of my requesting one a day earlier.

Bayfront Hotel Cebu - North Reclamation
It was a good stay but maybe next time the management will provide hand towels. It’s accessible to SM mall which is the reason why I booked this hotel.
