Experience impeccable service, stunning interiors, and a wide array of amenities that make Bai Hotel a true gem in Cebu’s hospitality scene.

Cebu, the bustling city that holds a special place in my heart, has seen remarkable growth over the past few years.

Since my departure three years ago, numerous hotels have transformed its skyline. Among them, one grandiose establishment stands out—the magnificent Bai Hotel.

This luxury hotel not only captivates with its impressive size and stunning exterior but also boasts a prime location near Parkmall and City Times Square, home to a myriad of boutiques and restaurants.

In this article, I will delve into my memorable experience at Bai Hotel, recounting the exceptional services and facilities that make it a true gem in Cebu’s hospitality scene.

Unforgettable memories in Cebu

Cebu, the place where I pursued my tertiary education and worked a regular 9-5 job before embarking on my journey as a digital nomad, holds a special place in my heart.

It is a city where lifelong friendships were forged and where unforgettable memories were created with colleagues turned confidantes.

Cebu will always remain a part of me, no matter where my adventures take me.

Although my visits to Cebu have been limited since relocating to France, this time was different.

Accompanied by my husband and celebrating our 5th anniversary, we sought a lavish and memorable experience, opting to stay at Bai Hotel—a decision we would soon come to cherish.

Bai Hotel exceeding expectations

As we stepped foot into Bai Hotel, we were immediately greeted by a palatial reception area that prioritized both security and hospitality.

The efficient check-in process, complete with organized queue areas and time suggestions, ensured minimal waiting and a hassle-free experience.

A deposit was required upon check-in, and it is advisable to have local currency in large banknotes on hand.

However, should you arrive directly from the airport without pesos, fret not, as Bai Hotel also accepts foreign currency, offering a favorable exchange rate.

Rest assured, they provide the exact equivalent in local currency, provided no damage is caused to the property.

The chic oasis on the 19th floor

Upon completing the check-in process, we eagerly made our way to our room on the 19th floor.

Bai Hotel’s chic interiors and stylish flooring immediately caught our attention, exuding a sense of luxury and elegance that surpassed our expectations.

Truly, it stands as one of the most meticulously designed hotels we have ever had the pleasure of visiting.

The splendor of our room at Bai Hotel

Our room at Bai Hotel was the epitome of interior design goals. Adorned with subtle earth tones and hints of teal, it created a tranquil atmosphere.

The harmonious patterns on the walls and floors resonated with the contemporary minimalist theme, making it undeniably trendy.

The highlight, however, was the king-sized bed—a haven of comfort that embraced us after a long day of exploration.

Soft as feathers, the pillows beckoned us to sink into their embrace.

The room was equipped with bedside tables, lamps, and control switches, allowing us to customize the ambiance to our liking. Additionally, a spacious desk in the corner of the room became my designated workspace.

The amenities extended beyond our expectations, including a flat-screen TV, mini-fridge, coffee/tea making facilities, vault, robes, ironing facilities, and a telephone.

Furthermore, as it was our 5th anniversary, Bai Hotel had thoughtfully prepared a delightful romantic surprise upon our arrival.

The bathroom, equally impressive in its design and functionality, provided a sanctuary within the room. Complete with a hairdryer, vanity mirror, bidet toilet, rain shower, and even a telephone, it left no desire unfulfilled.

And if that wasn’t enough, Bai Hotel’s pièce de résistance awaited us on the 21st floor—an awe-inspiring infinity pool. Its stunning views and inviting ambiance offered the perfect backdrop for relaxation.

For those who wished to indulge further, the pool bar catered to all desires, serving refreshing cocktails as guests lounged in the pool’s embrace.

A culinary journey at Cafe Bai

Mornings at Bai Hotel were a delightful affair, as we eagerly anticipated the extensive breakfast buffet at Cafe Bai.

Never before had we encountered such a wide array of options in a single dining establishment.

From local delicacies to Italian, Chinese, and even Indian cuisine, Cafe Bai had it all. Those craving kimchi and sushi for breakfast would be delighted to find them readily available.

As a self-proclaimed breakfast enthusiast, I made it my mission to savor almost every offering during our first breakfast at the hotel.

My husband, on the other hand, found himself drawn to the Italian and Indian sections, each dish a testament to the culinary expertise of Bai Hotel’s chefs.

To complement the delectable fare, Cafe Bai provided an extensive selection of hot and cold beverages, ensuring that every palate was satisfied.

The following day, we were pleasantly surprised with a change of menu, a testament to Bai Hotel’s dedication to culinary excellence.

This thoughtful gesture ensures that guests staying for longer periods never tire of the food options available.

With such variety and quality on offer, one could hardly grow bored with the culinary delights at Cafe Bai.

Unparalleled facilities and services

Beyond its lavish accommodations and culinary offerings, Bai Hotel takes pride in its extensive range of facilities and services.

From an in-house gym, spa, and business facilities to a clinic, function rooms, shuttle service, and multiple restaurants, Bai Hotel truly caters to every need within its premises.

Furthermore, its full butler service adds an extra touch of luxury and convenience, ensuring that guests’ every requirement is met with utmost care and attention.

Our stay at Bai Hotel Cebu was nothing short of blissful

From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in a world of comfort, luxury, and exemplary service.

Every aspect of our experience, from the grand reception to the chic interiors, from the breathtaking views to the sumptuous breakfasts, spoke volumes about the dedication and commitment of Bai Hotel and its staff.

As we bid farewell to Bai Hotel, we couldn’t help but look forward to our next stay, where we hope to indulge in the heightened experience offered by their Executive Club.

Without a doubt, Bai Hotel Cebu remains a beacon of luxury and hospitality, beckoning travelers to discover the magnificence it holds within its walls.
