due to the fact that the motif of the hotel is being antique then we must also consider that the facilities and decorations are also antique ... but those decorations is unimportant what is important is how the employee serves and satisfy their guest ....... bcoz a hotels mission is to satisfy guest .................... i think Mr. Crisanto Monsi Dela...

I was so disappointed with this place and the people that worked here. I have stayed for a night and served a cold breakfast. Still, i wanted to give them the benefit of a doubt, thinking it might be just a one off situation, i was wrong!!!booked a restaurant for a romantic evening with my husband and again we were... More

Indeed, the hotel is old but it is reminiscent of the old Zamboanga appeal. It is not in the pueblo itself but places of interest are either walking distance or just a tricycle ride away. If you forgot something to bring home from the city, a small trade center is just a few steps away. For South Sea and fresh... More

The facilities and decor are in desperate need of improvement. Poorly lit halls and rooms, the furniture and toilet/bathroom fixtures are old and must be updated ASAP! The room assigned to us smelled musty with a hint of insecticide! Once we even have to wait until 10:30 at night to be given bath towels! By the way, the sink leaked.... More

By provincial standards, Lantaka Hotel is a good hotel. THUMBS UP: Nice view of the sea, the lobby is elegant, the restaurant is at par with five-star standards, the room is clean, the location is ideal (relative to must-see places in Zamboanga City), staff generally were very accommodating, especially the hotel driver Alvin. THUMBS DOWN: Rickety old room furniture, bigger-than-pocket-sized... More

I have visited this hotel many times whenever I visit family and friends in Zamboanga City. I must say this hotel aged well over time. Its age has added a quaint character reminiscent of Zamboanga's glory days.

Stayed at the Lantaka Hotel last Jun 24-26 on a holiday trip with my wife. The location of this hotel is central, as it is near everything there is to see in Zamboanga City. Its also in front of the sea, which provided relaxing ocean views anytime of the day. We walked to Fort Pilar and Paseo del Mar easily.... More

key to this hotel is location location location. walking distance to local sites, food places. rooms are a bit overpriced for what you get (hallways are old, bathrooms definitely not yet updated), though waking up to a view of the ocean slightly makes up for it. staff are a bit clueless (front desk has no city map or idea/recommendations). don't...

Since the 80s, up to the present, Lantaka Hotel has been the only hotel that we have been lodging in whenever we are in Zamboanga City. Though their rates have gone up as a result of inflation, they have improved their facilities. It's the only hotel in Zamboanga City situated along the sea with a good view of Santa Cruz... More

We arrive at 6am. We contacted Plissap Transport & Rent a Car (09193161908). Its just outside the arrival area. They charge P50/head for hotel transfer one way. Quite reasonable if you have luggages and kids rather than taking a tricycle (alternate for taxi as there is no taxi in this city) The hotel was very kind to allow us early... More
