Summit Galleria Cebu, a property of Robinsons Hotels and Resorts, provided me with a memorable two-night staycation that exceeded my expectations. From the smooth check-in process to the cool room amenities and hotel facilities, every aspect of my stay was designed to offer comfort, relaxation, and convenience.
Smooth Check-In Experience
Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by Ms. Jessa, the duty manager, who ensured a seamless check-in process. Her warm, professional and friendly demeanor set the tone for our entire stay. The lobby’s homey ambiance, coupled with efficient service, made the start of our staycation truly enjoyable.
The hotel lobby itself is a statement. Larger than life ceiling decors coupled with the plush seats placed adjacent to the floor-to-ceiling glass walls allowing more natural light. The reception desk itself exudes an airy and spacious cavern that is indeed welcoming.
The Room
We were assigned Room 1108, offering a stunning city view that included a clear sight of the Cebu seaport and the landing planes at Mactan-Cebu International Airport. The room was designed with the modern traveler in mind, featuring a range of amenities that catered to both relaxation and productivity.
- Bathroom: The room’s bathroom was thoughtfully designed, with separate shower and toilet stalls. The shower stall featured a luxurious rain shower head with consistently warm water, making for a refreshing bathing experience. The toilet was equipped with a working bidet that offered continuous, comfortable water pressure. The bathroom also boasted a large mirror, a spacious lavatory, an adjustable face mirror, a hair dryer, and ample worktop space—perfect for laying out my Beautéderm skincare products. The bath towels provided were soft and comfortable for drying.
- Bedroom: The bed offered excellent back support, and the pillows were firm enough to ensure a restful sleep. The bedside lamp provided just the right amount of warmth and lumens for reading. The room also featured a large flat TV with a selection of local and international cable channels, a spacious working nook with convenient power outlets, a large wardrobe with ample shelving, plenty of bedside storage, and a coffee and tea facility. The personal refrigerator was a thoughtful addition for storing beverages and snacks.
Café Summit
Café Summit, located within the hotel, offered a breakfast buffet that catered to a wide range of tastes. I particularly enjoyed their salad station, which featured fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The local delicacies station provided a taste of Cebu’s culinary heritage, and their hot sikwate drink was a perfect complement to the morning meal. I also appreciated the inclusion of red rice, a fiber-rich, low-glycemic carbohydrate option, which supported my health-conscious diet. As an added surprise, Café Summit served healthy booster shots of beetroot and cucumber, which was a refreshing start to the day. The café also offered direct access to Robinsons Galleria Mall, making it easy to explore and shop without leaving the comfort of the hotel.
Indoor Swimming Pool
Located on the 3rd level, the indoor swimming pool offered a serene escape with a stunning city view. The pool area included a large adult-sized pool and a moderately sized kiddie pool, perfect for families. Daybeds were available for both individuals and groups, providing a comfortable spot to relax and unwind. The pool also offered a separate towel service, ensuring a hassle-free experience for guests.
APEX Gym
Adjacent to the pool on the 3rd floor, the APEX Gym is an equipped fitness center designed to cater to various workout routines. The gym featured large mirrors, ample storage shelves, and was fully air-conditioned. With a range of equipment, including barbells, treadmills, an upper body press, an ab machine, and stationary bikes, the gym provided everything needed for a comprehensive workout. I particularly enjoyed using the treadmill at its maximum incline, which allowed me to simulate hiking conditions and prepare for future outdoor adventures.
Smooth Check-Out Experience
Our stay ended on a high note, thanks to the efficient and friendly service of Ms. Corrine, who assisted us during check-out. She responded promptly to all my concerns and questions, ensuring that we left Summit Galleria Cebu in high spirits, eager to return for another stay.
