財産 — Grand Princess Haus
The Grand Princess Haus in downtown Davao feels like a functional base camp: clean, no-fuss, with a small lobby that smells faintly of disinfectant and coffee. It's a three-star built for business travellers and budget-conscious families who want reliable air-con, decent WiFi and a location near SM City Davao and the night market. You won't find character or views, but you will find cordial staff and a working elevator.
Davaoの歴史
Davao City was formally founded in 1848 by Spanish coloniser Don José Uyanguren. After WWII it grew rapidly as a logging and agricultural hub, then became a charter city in 1936. Its skyline is a jumble of 1970s concrete blocks, new malls and the occasional glass office tower. Today Davao is a regional economic and cultural capital, with a mix of Cebuano, Chinese and indigenous influences, and remains the home base of President Rodrigo Duterte. The city is also a gateway to Mount Apo and the Philippine Eagle Center.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Grand Princess Haus, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 3 or 4 facing away from the street (likely the rear or side). These mid-level floors avoid street noise and are above the ground-floor bustle, yet still close enough to the lift for convenience.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the first and second floors. First-floor rooms suffer from street-level noise and potential security issues; second-floor rooms can catch noise from the lobby or restaurant below.
Best views
A room on the street side (likely at the front) gives a view of Davao's urban activity and maybe distant mountains if high enough. Rear rooms overlook quieter, possibly greener areas but less dramatic vistas.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 to 4 are the quietest at this hotel. They sit above common areas and street level, and below any rooftop or higher floor that might have equipment or traffic.
🔊 Noise notes
Main noise sources: street traffic (jeepneys, motorbikes) on the front-facing side, lobby and restaurant activity on lower floors, and the lift mechanism near the lift bank.
Insider tips
Check in after 2 PM to avoid the midday rush and secure a quieter room assignment. If you drive, ask about free or cheap street parking—the hotel may have a deal with a nearby lot.
- 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

Davaoのトップ観光スポット
💡 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.
