Bulskamp Inn

Situated just off the main ‘Walking Street’, the location is great if you want to be in the heart of everything. Our room was clean. The bed was very comfortable and it’s always a bonus when you get two pillows each we love that! Simple things ! There’s a very small fridge but it meant we had cold water, plenty of hanging space and some shelves. There’s two little side lights as well, which gave the room a nice ambience in the evening. The shower is electric so the pressure is never great, but it was more than adequate and the temperature was brilliant. They also provide hand wash shampoo, toothbrushes, and toothpaste. We didn’t watch the flatscreen telly but a nice touch. There’s a/c a fan and a torch for when the electricity goes out in EL Nido. Not something we experienced during our 3 night, January 2025 stay, but the provision of the torch indicates it’s not uncommon. Breakfast is served in the lounge area downstairs, which is really cosy. The breakfast consisted of a potato fritter like a hash brown fried egg some bacon, bread a bowl of fresh fruit and it was really really tasty great value for 320 pesos. There is a pancake option as well. They provide complementary tea, coffee and water throughout your stay which is great and the staff are really pleasant. We also booked our island tour from here and we were pleased to realise that the environmental tax we paid yesterday while diving could be used again today for islands hopping too. Rey, who has worked here for ten years, was a font of knowledge, great at providing suggestions for our future plans in The Philippines 🇵🇭 as well as offering an insight to El Nido and how tourism has changed the face of this destination over the last decade. Having stayed here, it’s somewhere that we would recommend.

They staff is super sweet and warm esp Rey! He was sooo helpful in coordinating tours and our ride to PP. he always came to say hi to us every morning. There are drying racks set up outside that we could use post island hopping tour. Location! Close to everything - quick walk to the port to grab our tour and close to beaches.

All the staff were lovely, really friendly and helpful for booking tours etc. The room was great - spacious and clean and just what we needed. Didn’t have the breakfast but the communal area was nice and was in a perfect location, close to the beach and restaurants/bars/shops etc.

The location was amazing and the staff really helped us out with so many services. We had laundry done which was super speedy, hired a motorbike, booked onward transfer - sometimes it felt like we were giving the staff a big to do list but they did it all with a smile and it meant a completely hassle-free stay. Special shoutout to Rey who was always smiling and asking us how our day had been. Definitely recommend this hotel!

Staff were so welcoming upon arrival and throughout our stay. I remember the names especially of Rey and Tin Tin but everyone was great! The location was perfect for being in the town and close to everything. It was a bit loud at night due to the clubs etc surrounding, this is not at all down to the hotel itself, anywhere in town would be exactly the same. Tea, coffee and water self service 24/7. Room has the option of AC or fan readily available. Great vibe, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thanks!
