We've been all over the place in Iloilo for 4 days. One day we were in one municipality then in another one the day after. It was so much fun!! So here's a rundown of our accommodations and where we ate for the whole duration of our stay in Iloilo.
On our first night we stayed at HJB Pan de Azucar hotel in Concepcion. Airconditioned room for 2 costs P1400 with free breakfast for 1 person. Just add P100 for the 2nd person's breakfast. The room is clean and it seems like the hotel is fairly new so the aircon unit and the TV is in good working condition. They also have a water dispenser in the 2nd floor so water refill is unlimited.

Right after our island hopping at Concepcion, we checked out of HJB Pan de Azucar and headed to the Municipality of Estancia for our next adventure. We checked in at Paon Beach Club Inc. on our 2nd night in the province of Iloilo. We didn't have reservations there but God was so good because there were 3 available 3G rooms that was just recently vacated that day. We opted for the 3G rooms because it was the cheapest airconditioned room they have.

Our 3G room |
Don't get too excited about what a steal the 3G room was at only P600 because if I were to go back in this resort hotel, I would definitely request a more expensive room. I wouldn't have mind if the room and the bed was outdated nor if the aircondition unit was old and not cold. It was the foul smell coming from the bathroom that was a total spoiler for me. I had a hard time sleeping the night because of the smell (imburnal level ang amoy) even if we closed the bathroom door. Also when I had to wake up in the middle of the night to pee, I had to hold my breath because it was absolutely unbearable. Well, that was the price we had to pay for such a cheap room.
We had dinner (2nd night) and breakfast (3rd day) in Paon Resort during our stay at Estancia. They offer delicious food and serving is good for sharing.
On our third and fourth night we stayed at Go Hotels. My sister in-law said that their cheapest room rate was at P900+. The only problem was, she wasn't aware that advanced booking and walk-ins have totally different rates. Since we didn't book in advance, we had to pay around P1,555 per night. We were exhausted (husband and I lost our swim wear and gears because we accidentally left our plastic bag containing our wet swim clothes and snorkeling gear in the van) and had no more energy to search for another hotel so we decided to take the offer.
On our first night in Iloilo City, we dined at Chikaan inside Robinson's hotel where the Go Hotels was also located. We were supposed to checkout restaurants in Smallville Complex but sadly it rained that night so we had no other choice. Well at least staying at Go Hotels had perks like a mall right beside it.

Punot at Samllville Complex |
On our second night in Iloilo City we dined at Punot in Smallville. We were not able to find other restaurants because it was already starting to rain (again). Food was good and price is okay because serving is good for sharing. Not bad.
For our breakfast while we were in Iloilo city, we just ate at Ministop also located at Robinsons mall just a few steps away from Go Hotels.
