A Weekend Staycation at the Blu

It sure was a super busy week for me and to be able to relax and spend the end of the week at Radisson Blu Cebu was just everything I needed.

I just moved back into my hometown Cebu after being away for a good four months living  in the capital and I was so exhausted and so stressed weeks prior the going-home situation that when Radisson Blu sent me their staycation invite, I just couldn’t say no.

The main reason for their invite is for us to experience their new and improved Business Class rooms and share it to you guys. To be honest, I haven’t really gotten the chance to stay at their rooms in the past until that night. Since it was my first time, luckily they also offered a quick tour on their on-going renovations and showed us what the old rooms looked like. This way we can really appreciate the change and improvement of the new rooms. I also shared the amenities that I myself was able to enjoy during my stay.

Old Business Class Room

The moment you enter the old rooms, first thing you would notice is how dull and boring it is, especially when it comes to the room lighting. The tiles when you enter is in black marble, as well as the bathroom. You can also really tell that the carpet is kinda old fashion as you can see in the photo below.

Other standard amenities include a 37-inch LCD satellite television, an in-room safe, a walk-in shower, a minibar, bathrobes and slippers, an iPod® dock entertainment system, and a coffee- and tea-maker.

As you can see in the photos below, the new and improved Business Class Rooms now has a new look that’s so fresh and very much more inviting than the old rooms. The space also is much more brighter and the carpet has a new look as well!

In-Room Dining

My parents visited us late at night before they head home and good thing I was able to order food with the push of a button. Now I just have to wait for my food and enjoy them in the comfort of my own room.
