✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Big Apple Hotel & Bar, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request rooms on higher floors (4th or above) to minimize street noise. Considering the hotel's location in Davao, you may hear some traffic noise, especially from Roxas Avenue, but higher floors will help reduce the disturbance.
Rooms to avoid

Best views
Unfortunately, the hotel's address in Davao does not provide any notable views of the city or surrounding landscape, as it is a city center location.

🔊 Noise notes
Be prepared for some street noise from Roxas Avenue, especially during peak hours. The hotel's concrete floors may also transmit footstep noise from other rooms.

💡 Step inside for air-con and quiet during midday heat. The adjacent plaza often has cheap street food vendors in the evening.
💡 The 30-minute guided tour is included in the fee and adds context you'd miss on your own. Go early on weekday mornings when it's empty.
💡 Go for the 10am or 3pm feeding sessions to see the crocs leap for meat. Skip the overpriced snacks inside and eat at a nearby carinderia after.
💡 Take the first shuttle at 8am to avoid crowds. Pack a picnic lunch—eating at the on-site restaurant is pricey and average.
