Make It Davao: Hotel Vicente

Hotel Vicente

Hotels are good indicators of a city's strong, stable and growing economy, stability of peace and order, all of which make it conducive to do business in a city. Of course, none of these would have been possible without the dynamic leadership of the local government and strong support it gets from its constituents.

Hotel Vicente is one of the newest additions to the ever growing number of hotels in Davao City. Built only this year, 2012, this 3-Star boutique Hotel is a five-storey building with 27 guestrooms beautifully designed and decorated in Filipino-Spanish style and ambiance to ensure its guests utmost comfort during their stay in the hotel. It is an ideal place for business and leisure travelers who are looking for a nice, clean, and comfortable accommodation that provides all the conveniences and comforts of home at very affordable rates standard to its class. It had its soft opening last June 22, 2012 and is currently offering a 30% discount on room rates within July.

What makes this Hotel unique and different from the other hotels in the city is that the Hotel is built on a lot where the owner's old house once stood and parts of the old house were preserved and incorporated into the hotel's furnishings such as doors, banisters, wooden beams, and even the sitting rock that the owner's grandfather used to sit on. The Hotel is owned and operated by the Calma Family of Davao City.
