The Funny Lion El Nido

The best! Everything was 10000/10!

Breakfast was boring

It was a fantastic trip with great accommodations. The hotel is within walking distance of downtown, and the staff and customer service were top-notch. I highly recommend this hotel and place.

This is an amazing property that has great water pressure, with comfortable beds! The water is all filtered so you do not need to worry when brushing teeth! The staff go above and beyond! They are courteous, friendly and knowledgeable! It is a safe haven for rest and relaxation after a long day on the water! I definitely recommend!

Amazing staff! Very friendly and helpful.

Amazing staff!! I loved how Val remembered every guest's name and addressed them every time she saw them. The hotel is located at a very good location, right next to the town square. The rooms are very botique styled, small but cute! We had an amazing time at Funny lion and would recommend to all.

The staff was awesome. The free breakfast buffet was good and the rooms were clean. Would stay here again.

Main complaint is the poor communication between hotels.com and The Funny Lion despite communicating with each individually to change a booking. Ended up paying for nights we didn’t stay despite requesting change before cut off date. The hotel itself was nice and in a good location to restaurants

This was a couples scuba diving trip for my wife and I, where the highlight of our trip to El Nido was the staff at The Funny Lion Hotel. Incredibly, every time one of us walked past a staff member we were greeted by name! Whether Zel, Val, Sharmaine, Julie, CJay, Kem and Kim in the reception area or Cham at bar, all of them called us by our name from day one of our week-long visit. Their warm Filipino gesture came along with the delicious local and western breakfast together with daily access to the Hotel's private Papaya Beach, just a short boat ride away at a nearby hidden cove.

The staff is great. Starting from security at the front steps who opens car doors and makes you feel welcome each day and evening. Val at the front desk was above and beyong sweet and friendly. All the staff learns your name. They are super sweet and kind. Will definitely stay there again.

Amazing service and staff! Val and front desk staff remembered our names and we had a group of 18 people! Our family enjoyed our stay and will definitely recommend Funny Lion!

Very nice hotel, pool is amazing, food is amazing and bed is soft.

There is no elevator....the bathroom is small and not user friendly.the staff was helpfull and friendly.overpriced for what they offer

Great location clean, staff is awesome, and a lot of extras!!

From the very first minute all the staff and security treat us so well and made us feel special, and we settled in immediately. The hotel itself, rooms, pool, bar/restaurant area etc were all immaculate, modern and comfortable, and the breakfast, shakes and evening food were great. As it was our first time in El Nido we weren’t too sure on what to do during the daytime, so it was a lovely surprise to find that the hotel offers complimentary access to their own private beach just a small boat ride away - and wow! this was a small piece of heaven that we just had to go back to on the second day. Would definitely recommend staying at The Funny Lion, it’s already on our list for when we plan our next trip to the Philippines. Thank you so much for making our wedding/honeymoon trip that extra special.

My family and I stayed at The Funny Lion - El Nido for four days, and let me tell you…it was the most comfortable, most enjoyable, most fun-filled stay of our whole trip! Let me begin to say that the check in process was superb, so very smooth and the staff were so kind and inviting, all with smiling faces! From beginning and end of our trip there, the whole staff remembered all 8 of our names and anytime they would pass us by they would say our names and it made it so personable! We loved it! The rooms were so very clean and tidy, the breakfast buffet was phenomenal every morning, and the pool was oh so relaxing next to the bar (which by the way they have happy hour and great drinks)! I would like to point out that Ralph and Ceejay were so very courteous and tended to our needs every day the whole day! Surprisingly as well, the hotel offered complimentary archery which me and my family found as a fun way to fill our afternoon for a bit when we weren’t busy! Thank you MM for teaching us how to shoot the bow and arrow!! So much fun! I cannot wait to come to this hotel again and will definitely recommend this place to family and friends!!!

Fantastic staff, every single one of them, especially Val and all the others on the front desk, couldn't do enough for you. Room was very nice, great location, great cocktails in the bar.........really didn't want to leave and will be back for sure.

Great staff. Very welcoming.

Really great place to stay. Very new, modern and clean building. Only slight annoyance was hearing some of the road noise from our room. Special props to Val on the front desk and the security guard who gave us all the recommendations and made us feel incredibly welcome.

A place that really goes the extra mile for an amazing experience, from great cocktails (hard to find in Philippines), to packed breakfast with our 5am departure, to wonderful polite and friendly staff, and even have a serviced feet rinsing station when returning from the beach, friendship bracelets, a private beach area nearby with transfers I was unaware of before booking… need I go on…
