Hotel Centro is the newest hotel to rise up in Puerto Princesa City. It softly opened its doors just this March and comes fully equipped to cater to the needs of even the most discriminating visitor to this side of Palawan. Located along the National Highway in San Pedro, it can be reached within minutes from the Puerto Princesa International Airport. It features 111 guest rooms, a grand ballroom, 5 conference venues, a cafe aptly called "Expressions", a poolside bar named "Soul". It also has a spa, a gym and a horde of other amenities that are all guaranteed to pamper its guests in style.

Recently we were able to sample its outdoor swimming pool as a concession to our 3-year-old daughter who had been nagging us all day for a swim. We checked in rather late in the evening at about 8pm and still had two hours to enjoy the soothing waters of the pool before it closed at 10pm.  The fee was P300 per head.

As the crisp, reggae music wafted through the air, the lights around the building and in the water danced along, changing into different hues and combinations, in a subtle way of  uplifting our tired moods. After two hours of frolicking and wading in the two feet deep children's pool area our daughter was now speechless, completely satisfied. Later on we just retired into the night with smiles on our faces knowing fully well that another day has just ended beautifully.
