| Standard twin room |
The Leyte Park Resort Hotel,
a 6.13 hectare, standard class hotel, sitting atop a
hill, was built by former First Lady, Imelda Marcos in
1979 but was closed for 3 years until it was reopened in 1994
following renovation and refurbishing.
The hotel has 100
well-furnished airconditioned rooms with bath, cable TV, NDD phone and minibar
(single/twin standard, PhP2,250-4,800) within the main building.
From
the room balcony, one has a gorgeous view of beautiful San
Juanico Strait (the world's narrowest navigable body of water), Mt.
Danglay and San Pedro Bay. It is also not far from Tacloban's heart
and soul. The hotel also has 50 villas (some with private infinity
pools) and cottages. Leyte Park Hotel still has the potential to be the
best hotel in Leyte but it needs a further overhaul.
The hotel has a number of
food and beverage outlets. Its specialty restaurant, San Pedro Bay
Seafood Restaurant, offers seafood and cultural presentations. Its
second floor coffee shop, Veranda Cafe (open 4 AM-2-AM), offers international
cuisine as well as Samar/Leyte gourmet favorites. The cozy Lobby Sala
Grill, adjacent to Veranda Cafe, offers grilled seafood. The Tavern
Videoke Bar offers cool drinks, videoke and billiards. The Pool Patio Pizzeria,
open 9 AM-12 PM, offers snacks and frozen delights while Park Cafe offers
expresso.
