Grand Dame Hotel Iloilo

My Bonggang Bonggang Birthday will be in a few days. I don't know if I want to cry or just embrace being 33. Aging...is scary. Recently, I've been feeling pain down my lower back so I've been doing yoga more diligently.

I am contemplating on booking myself a hotel room, the night before the big day so that I can have sometime to be alone and reflect. I've never been alone since I got married. Don't get me wrong! I'm not complaining.

There are 2 hotels that I am considering. The first is the brand new Richmonde Hotel. which is on soft opening. A night costs 3,800 nett for 2.  My online friend, Jet is raving about it and I am verry very tempted.

Then there's my tried and tested , Grand Dame Hotel in Lapaz.

 A room without breakfast only costs 1,700. And the rooms are not that shabby ha! In my opinion,  Grand Dame is comparable (if not better) to the 3 star hotels in Europe.

My price point when I go to Iloilo significantly plunges because I am so accustomed to paying less for great food and great accommodations.

I still haven't decided. Papa and Jet told me I should give it a try because it's my birthday anyway. I have the "barat" fever again. Grrrr.



Kuripot to the max,
