The world is moving
towards a new normal. The COVID-19 pandemic has led the world to cancel
vacations, reunions and business trips for the past 3 years. Now, people are
searching to return to some pretense of normal life some are even having their
own #RevengeTravel. Staycation is an increasing trend because it’s an easy way
to take a break without travelling too far.
I had always been a
constant customer of Hotel Sogo in the Metro the largest hotel chain in the
Philippines most specifically at Hotel Sogo Guadalupe Edsa branch.
They always welcome me
with a bow greeting and even though they’re wearing mask I can feel they’re
also smiling upon welcoming me. The hotel features a 24-hour front desk, room
service, and 24-hour check-in.
I am also fond of
placing my vote regarding my experience whenever I get to stay at any of their
branch in the Metro, I always give an excellent experience. 😊
This is their lobby area
wherein you can sit from their different sofa and the one I am always fond of
sitting is at their waiting area where you can hear music while waiting for
your n umber to be called. So, you won’t get bored at all plus they have TV for
you also to watch while waiting.
Customer can also het to buy some souvenir items from every branch
from caps to umbrella, mugs, shirts, keychain, sleepers, and a lot more from their
display area.
Enhanced cleaning and sanitation have been applied in all its branches. Hand Sanitizers in common areas. Constant disinfection in all amenities is also implemented.
Hotel Sogo’s continuous
innovation on its amenities and masterful craft on its clean and sanitized room
summarizes its “so clean… so good” experience in all of its branches. Truly, Hotel
Sogo’s strength lies in its services by creating first-rate quality and
affordable stay fit for young professionals, digital natives, travelers, and
families.
THE ROOM
From deluxe to the
regency, all rooms are perfectly designed for couples, families, or solo-stay
who want the comfort of staying at home while having the leisure to easily
access shopping malls, restaurants, and a lot more.
What better way to
describe the room is comfortable and relaxing other than the fact that it is
clean and cozy of course. We stayed in a Regency 2 room.
Who doesn’t want a
bathtub for a relaxing bubble bath or just simply having a hot bath. It has a hot
and cold shower.
The room has two tables
1 for dining and the other one is a huge one for putting some of your stull but
with me this is where I get to put my laptop and work while watching a movie or
news at the huge TV. And of course put all of my snacks while we watch movies.
Besides also has a huge mirror though inside the room has different huge mirror
which is a good thing so that I can see myself before I head out of the room.
Best of all you don’t
need to bring along towels, toiletries and slippers because they already provided
it and are ready inside the rooms. I know you’re just like me who hates
bringing a lot of my personal needs
whenever I travel or do my staycation because it is hard travelling with a lot
of bags and luggage’s with personal stuff in it. Good thig Hotel Sogo already
though of it, by the way waters are also included at the reception area once
booked.
They also have portable
USB sockets for charging and other sockets from the table but just a tip bring
your own cables if you have multiple gadgets that you needed to charge.
Why stay at an expensive
hotel when you could enjoy the same hospitality and comforts at a more
affordable price? At Hotel SOGO, free Wi-Fi Internet, entertainment plus a hot
and cold shower, and they have in-room dining, which is my favorite part to
share with you all.
This is one of the most
exciting parts of my stay, The food. Hotel Sogo has a wide selection of food to
choose from their Menu. You won’t even have to go outside anymore because they
have it all well from my experience, they have most of what you will want from
their menu.
Hotel Sogo is famous not only for
its clean modern looking rooms and for affordable rates but also known by its
iconic dishes you can always try once you visit any Hotel Sogo branch
nationwide.
Take a look at all the food from
this photo isn’t it exciting to go check-in right away at your nearest Hotel
Sogo branch and order as many foods as you want and have a relaxing stay and a
good night sleep?
Looking at the menu,
guests can choose from a wide variety of delicacies from appetizers, soups,
vegetables, breakfast orders, ala-carte orders, and even bento box and rice
bowl meals—there is a ton to choose from!
Here’s a line-up of
the ones you need to try whenever you stay at Hotel Sogo. Here are some of the “Must
Order” from their menu!
Crispy Pinakbet – Php 180.00
Pinakbet is a well-liked
vegetable dish among many Filipinos. It is made up of squash, eggplant, okra,
yard-long beans, bitter melon, and other vegetables. If you're looking for
home-cooked meals while staying at the hotel, the classic Filipino mixed vegetables
with crispy deep-fried pork belly are a must-try combination of flavors. My
instant favorite I ate it to myself alone. 😊
Half Fried Chicken – Php 250.00
Mouthwatering in-house specialty

for its flavor. Typically, it is fried to golden perfection and marinated in
citrus and spices. It is one of Hotel Sogo's most popular dishes, and every
guest should try it!
Canton Guisado – Php 190.00
All-time favorite with its perfectly
cooked egg noodles, meats, seafoods and vegetables enriched with oyster sauce. The
canton guisado at Hotel Sogo is a popular dish in all of its locations and is
considered a trademark by some. This all-time favorite is great for dinner
parties with the family or on special occasions. This dish is truly delicious,
prepared with care, and certain to be a crowd favorite! MapapaPansit kayo

Spicy Chicken Wings – Php 230.00
Succulent spicy fried chicken wings.
Who can resist chicken wings? Since it's chicken wings and I love chicken wings,
