Das Eigentum — Caprice Inn
The Caprice Inn is a straightforward, no-fuss 3-star in Iligan’s city centre, useful for transit or business stops rather than a holiday base. The lobby is small, tiled and functional, with a check-in desk that processes guests quickly. Its main selling point is location: a short walk to the public market and jeepney terminals, and within reach of the Maria Cristina Falls tour pickup points. It suits travellers who just need a clean, quiet room with air-con and breakfast, without any pretences.
Chroniken von Iligan
Iligan was established as a Spanish mission settlement in 1609 and later became a chartered city in 1950. Its growth was driven by hydroelectric power from the Maria Cristina Falls, which turned the city into an industrial hub for steel and fertiliser plants. The post-war era saw rapid urbanisation, but the city retained its nickname 'City of Majestic Waterfalls' thanks to over 20 cascades within its boundaries. Today, Iligan is a mix of heavy industry and ecotourism, with a culturally diverse population that blends Maranao, Cebuano and Christian traditions.
