Ponce Suites are for the traveler and guest who is sick of hotels that all look the same. This hitel is DIFFERENT, with a capital D thanks to its artistic owner, Kublai, a fine arts graduate from the University of the Philippines. Even the food is good - and nutritious, not a common feature of either hotels or the Philippines.

In a hospitality desert of bland beige walls and cookie cutter interior design lies this true oasis of individuality and creativity.
