Elijah Hotel Dasmarinas City Cavite

The room was quiet, neat, and comfortable, and the bathroom was clean and cozy. We had a really pleasant stay and would consider returning. The staff were warm, accommodating, attentive, and helpful. There are lots of interns, and they were all polite and receptive. A small tip feels deserved for that kind of service. Elijah Hotel is handy if you're going between Cavite and the Alabang, Muntinlupa area, whether for a quick trip out of town or busy workdays and errands. It's useful for a spontaneous stay without traveling far. It's not especially cheap, but for us the accessibility made the cost worthwhile. Some packages include free buffet breakfast, and there's a pool too. The area is lively, with Bo’s Coffee downstairs, Bacsilog nearby, Watsons, and plenty of other establishments. It stays busy at night, but the rooms are surprisingly quiet. The elevators need exclusive floor access keycards, which helped us feel secure despite being connected to the lobby and other businesses. The food was tasty, but I'd suggest adding more breakfast choices. Some ulam, such as kaldereta, fish fillet, and binagoongan, felt more like lunch dishes. It would be nice to have classic options like ham, hotdog, or bacon as well. Just a small suggestion.

The room was clean and had what we needed, with a smart TV, decent bathroom, and a free pitcher of water available if requested. It was small, perhaps around 22-26 sqm. The wifi worked well, but mobile signal was absent in the basement parking and very weak at reception, so I couldn't send messages or use mobile data. The hotel is conveniently beside a pharmacy, coffee shop, and a few banks. Staff were very friendly, and there were lots of them around. Maybe some were OJTs, or perhaps the hotel is small enough that you notice everyone. They offered to carry our bags to the room without being asked. Check-in also requires a 2k security deposit; they give you a receipt to show at checkout so they can cancel the credit card charge. We stayed over the weekend. It was comfortable, and this is probably the nicest hotel in Dasma, with good service, but I found it too expensive. Booking directly costs 5k, while Agoda had it for 3.8k, quite a difference. If it weren't so pricey, it might be my favorite hotel in the area.

Elijah Hotel is only a few minutes from home, so it's become our convenient go-to for an easy staycation. We stayed twice this year, once for Father's Day and again at Christmas. Before Elijah opened, Bayleaf Hotel Cavite was our usual choice. Now, when we want a hassle-free stay, we keep considering Elijah.

The location was underwhelming, with little nearby unless you're interested in golf. The rooms, though, look modern and great, with excellent AC and all the amenities you'd want. Service was good, and people were always willing to help.
