Das Eigentum — Quality Plaza Inn
Quality Plaza Inn is a no-frills, dependable 3-star hotel in Davao’s downtown core. The lobby feels like a clean, air-conditioned refuge from the tropical heat — tiled floors, potted plants, and front-desk staff who can book you a trike in seconds. It suits budget-conscious travellers and business visitors who just need a safe, quiet room with good wifi and easy access to Aldevinco Shopping Center and People’s Park. The USP is location: you can walk to SM Lanang Premier in ten minutes and the night market in five.
Chroniken von Davao
Davao City grew from a small logging and abaca port in the early 1900s to become the largest city in the Philippines by land area. Its architecture reflects a functional, post-war boom — concrete buildings and wide boulevards — with little colonial heritage left after WWII bombing. The city is the de facto capital of Mindanao and the heart of the indigenous Lumad and Moro cultures. Contemporary Davao is known for its strict local ordinances (smoking bans, speed limits) and as the home of former President Rodrigo Duterte, who served as mayor here. The cultural identity is relaxed, family-oriented, and heavily influenced by the nearby Mount Apo and durian harvests.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Davao-Guide →Die besten Monate
December to February: cooler, dry weather (25–30°C) and fewer tourists, ideal for exploring Mount Apo or the Philippine Eagle Center.
Peak / Festival Surge
August (Kadayawan Festival) and late December/January (Christmas/New Year). Kadayawan drives hotel prices up 30–50% due to street parties, floral floats, and indigenous showcases. Book three months ahead.
Budget Schulter Saison
March and October offer lower room rates, still mostly dry days, and mild temperatures (28–32°C). Crowds thin out after Kadayawan and before the Christmas rush.
Wetter & Verpackung
Davao has a short dry season (December–March) but can rain year-round — don’t rely on a single season. Pack a lightweight rain jacket and quick-dry shoes; leave umbrellas behind (they’re cheap to buy locally).

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Quality Plaza Inn, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 4–6, facing away from the main road (ask for the interior courtyard side). These floors are high enough to avoid street-level noise but still within easy stair access if the lift is busy.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on floor 2 (just above the lobby and restaurant, so morning prep noise and chair scraping carry) and any room directly above the lift shaft or service stairs — the lift motor hums and doors slam on all floors, but it's worst near the core on lower floors.
Best views
If you get a south- or west-facing room on floors 5–7, you'll see the Davao Gulf coast or Mount Apo on a clear day. Otherwise, courtyard views are green and quiet but not spectacular.
Quietest floors
Floors 4–6 on the courtyard side are quietest — minimal street noise and less foot traffic from other guests passing through.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel's address on a main Davao arterial road means constant jeepney and tricycle traffic from 5am until late. The lift shaft has a low hum that doesn't stop, and walls are thin — you'll hear corridor conversation.
Insider tips
1. Check in after 3pm — the morning rush means rooms aren't ready and you'll wait in the lobby (which is noisy). 2. Ask for a room with a working air-conditioner remote — the desk staff can swap it if yours is sticky, which avoids a hot night.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Geld & Währung
Get a travel card →Philippine Peso, PHP
Withdraw PHP from ATMs (e.g., BDO, BPI, Metrobank) for the best rate; avoid exchange counters at Davao International Airport and tourist bureaux, which often give poor rates.
Visa/Mastercard accepted in most malls, hotels, and chain restaurants; many small eateries, taxis, and market stalls are cash-only; GCash mobile pay is increasingly common.
Not expected but appreciated: leave small change (10–20 PHP) for good service in restaurants, round up taxi fares, and tip hotel porters 20–50 PHP per bag.
Essen, Einkaufen und Reisen auf einem Budget
Cheap car hire →Black instant coffee or barako coffee from a local carinderia or street stall: ~15–25 PHP.
Rice-and-ulam combo (e.g., adobo, fried fish) at a carinderia: ~50–80 PHP.
Grilled pork or chicken with rice from a night-market stall: ~80–120 PHP for a main.
Roxas Night Market along Roxas Avenue is the main budget-eats strip, with grilled skewers, isaw (chicken intestines), and fresh fruit shakes.
Gaisano Grand, NCCC, and Savemore are the common budget supermarket chains in Davao.
Aldevinco Shopping Center (especially for souvenirs and textiles) and the nearby Bankerohan Public Market for budget clothes; also SM City Davao’s department store.
Jeepney (13 PHP per trip, fixed routes) is the cheapest way around; from Davao International Airport, take a multicab or shuttle van (~50 PHP) or a jeepney to town (with changes).
Eat at carinderias or night markets instead of malls; use jeepneys or habal-habal (shared motorbikes) rather than taxis; haggle at public markets for souvenirs and produce.

Top-Attraktionen in Davao
💡 Visit late afternoon when the heat drops and locals come out. The Wi-Fi is reliable enough for basic browsing.
💡 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.
