Great easy and quick checkin with pleasant knowledgeable staff. We got an upgrade too!

Great experience for my first time in Coron. Didn’t know much about the area and they have great recommendations. And killer cocktails! We were celebrating a birthday and they sent up some balloons and cake, too. Lovely touches.

Everything was perfect! From the moment we checked in to we left, we had a great stay. Everything was planned to the detail. We were surprised with cookies in the room every day, and they served free popstickles by the pool.
The room was nice and clean. The staff was friendly and professional. The food and drinks in the restaurant by the pool and at the rooftop bar were tasteful. It was perfect to see the sunset in the jacuzzi on the rooftop. We also recommend booking the BBQ night that the hotel arranged. It was delicious food, live music, and a lovely atmosphere.
Amazing breakfast with a good daily variation: fresh coffee, a chef who made eggs, and nice local varieties.
The pool area was peaceful, and even if the hotel was fully booked, it was never crowded.
It was easy to get to Coron Town with tricycles. It was always many drivers waiting outside the hotel.

Absolutely loved this hotel, we loved the location, close to town and the dock where we did the boat tours. Staff is absolutely amazing and so kind, food was awesome. The rooftop is great for sunsets and drinks!

We loved our 4 night stay at the Funny Lion Coron. The staff were efficient and friendly, always willing to get you a Tuk Tuk into town and help with any request. The room was spacious and bed comfortable and great bathroom. The little touches like the complimentary fruit juices and sweets are an added touch and the view from the bar is sensational. Plus they do a fantastic cocktail that I just fell in love with. This Funny Lion (in Coron) is far superior to the El Nido Funny Lion which was lacking a little. Well done Funny Lion in Coron!

It’s a beautiful hotel with stellar management and staff. With each day we stayed there, we became more enchanted with the place. I can’t stress this part enough that the service, attentiveness was stellar. It’s perhaps the best hotel we’ve ever stayed at. I had my wife reality check this statement to make sure that I wasn’t exaggerating and making fair comparisons to other great hotels. I have stayed at hotels with incredible facilities such as one at Lake Como, Italy that was breathtakingly beautiful. In this case, it’s the staff. The facilities are smartly designed and it does have pretty landscaping. The staff and managers frequently check with us to verify that everything was good. They made special effort to help us trip planning. They offered a special dinner on our last evening with our favorite Filipino dishes. My wife has health sensitivities to sodium so they always cooked her meal with low sodium and still made it tasty. When are showed up for the special dinner, the scene was amazing. They had a private table set in the grass, overlooking a pool. The candle lite table was surrounded with a canopy of lights and lawn lanterns. We called the cook and staff to our table and tipped them.
The next morning they coordinated our pick up to ensure we arrived on time and in comfort for our flight. The manager was even cutting old flight tags off our luggage. What a champ!
Look, they were over the top on their service. So, they do deserve this review.

Really nice, new and clean.
Slightly odd location but that didn’t impact us as we cabbed everywhere.
2.5 / 5.0
We enjoyed our stay here. Warm, accommodating staff, clean and comfortable rooms, and good dining options. The hotel is just 5 minutes away by trike from Coron Town but the property itself is great for relaxing too. Front desk arranged our island hopping tour and airport transfers, making our trip very easy. Breakfast buffet is provided and the hotel offers additional light food and beverages throughout the day for merienda and turndown service.
Exceptional communication and customer service skills from the staff. They really make you feel at home. Other hotels need to take note. :-) We will stay here again when we return to Coron.

My stay at Funny Lion Hotel Coron was truly exceptional. The staff went above and beyond with their warm hospitality, making me feel incredibly welcome. The breakfast offered a delightful array of options, ensuring a great start to each day. The hotel room was not only aesthetically pleasing but also impeccably clean and comfortable, providing a perfect retreat after a day of exploration. I highly recommend Funny Lion Hotel for a memorable and enjoyable stay.

Excellent staff and property. Everyone was really friendly and helpful. The hotel is clean and very well taken care of. The breakfast buffet was great with different selections every day. The only problem was the WiFi connection…it was non existent more than half the time. You had to go to one of the main areas like the pool and restaurants to get a decent connection. If they can only get the internet connection right, this would’ve been a perfect stay.

I've lived in many hotels/resorts in the US, Europe and Asia. The Funny Lion in Coron offered the BEST customer service experience EVER! Their constant attention to your every need during your entire stay cannot be matched elsewhere. The only problem that I find, through no fault of Funny Lion and its staff, is the amount of what the locals call niknik bugs that Palawan has, both in El Nido and Coron. Make sure to bring your OFF with Citronella. Their head chef used to work for Amanpulo Resorts, the local supervisor Jen was the best I've seen in getting her staff to give us a very wonderful and memorable stay in Funny Lion!

I have never experienced such wonderful hospitality and attentive staff. This place is a tricycle ride to the center of town so it was quiet and felt safe. They are able to arrange tours which was convenient. They have an excellent restaurant with good breakfast food and a Saturday night buffet with an acoustic singer for entertainment. I would definitely come back to this hotel.

They surpassed all expectations I went with my brother and his wife (it was their second time). It will be the last. The staff was so attentive and focused on ensuring we had an outstanding time. The food was excellent. All first rate
5.0 / 5.0
The service staff were extremely helpful and friendly, Nobody could be faulted and it all came across as very genuine.
The Frozen Margarita's on the roof top bar were the best we had in all of Coron. A shame the roof top is not open for meals or drinks at lunch time.
We had to move to another hotel on our last night because no rooms available at the Funny Lion. But it gave us a chance to compare to another hotel. The Funny Lion wins, hands down.

The staff gave excellent customer service. The explained everything well and catered our needs very promptly. Breakfast ambiance is lovely and food was amazing mix of Filipino and Western. Monica, the dog you will find laying down in the entrance is very chill. We also love her. Overall 5-star for this place.

I had an amazing stay at the Funny Lion Hotel. Their staff are so kind, accommodating and really go the extra mile to make your stay that much better. My stay was at the beginning of the lockdown, when they announced that we had two days till domestic travel would stop. The manager went above and beyond, making phone calls, looking at flights, running around and even trying to find transport off of the island for all his guests. room was big, clean and had a nice bed and bathroom. The restaurants were very nice and the food was great. I would definitely recommend staying here and will be back in the future! :)

The staff was very attentive, they gave us a bottle of wine with a nice happy anniversary made from flowers on our bed. The pool is nice and relaxing, the food was very good and happy hours on the roof top for the sunset view is spectacular.
2.5 / 5.0
This is a small hotel but when we arrived we were very hot so the handed us lemonade. I mentioned it was our anniversary so they gave us a free bottle of wine. The fridge in your room is stocked at no additional charge. They DID NOT try to charge us hidden fees. We felt comfortable and welcomed to relax.

This was THE best hotel we stayed in during our month long Philippines trip.
The rooms was really nice and were decked out 'jungle' style, the staff were amazing and could not do enough for you, Kenneth in particular was exceptional.
Breakfast was the best and most varied we had out of all our hotels.
The pool was well kept and the area was well maintained. The only comment here was that there needs to be more chairs as there wasn't enough for all guests. Also the chairs were deck chairs, not sunloungers. This was clearly done for space saving, but it did get a little uncomfortable at times when sunbathing and you wanted to recline, small detail so don't be put off.
The restaurant was also very good but easily tripple the price of anything in town.
The roof top bar easily has the best view in town and has two jacuzzis on the roof, sitting in one of these with a beer watching the sunset is magical.
Overall The Funny Lion is an excellent hotel, it does have a price tag but it's worth it.
