The location is close to Panglao Airport, with Alona Beach reachable by a short tricycle ride but a longer walk. Many enjoy the restaurant’s food, though breakfast can be limited and some find prices or quality inconsistent. Best for travelers prioritizing value over high-end polish.

Stayed at this property for 8 days. The property was very clean and 5 minutes from the airport. Our pool room was basic inside but great value & clean and you can walk out the door into the giant pool. The meal and drink menus were extensive and great value with happy hour cocktails at night. All the staff very friendly and transport was available outside the main door. Highly recommended.

Roman empire is a very nice hotel with a very frien staff, the filipino food is very good the sigsig and kinilaw were amazing. The pool and restaurant area are very nice and relaxing. Beside the hotel you can catch a trike into Alona beach for a short ride. We had an amazing time and will visit again.

部屋からプール直が良くて予約をしましたが交通の便が悪いにもかかわらずレンタルバイクなどの対応がフロントではありません。 尋ねるとビーチで借りられます,ビーチまでは2キロ以上あるのだが...(広い通りまで300m位歩けばトライシクルが拾えます) 毎夜ゴキブリとの戦い、二晩目の夜同行者にまたいたと言ったら私は昨夜二匹見たそうで同じ個体かもですが私はその都度サンダルで潰しているので少なくとも三匹は... 朝食もフィリピンの一般的な朝ごはん値段なりでしょうか。 土地柄停電の頻発には困りました、一部は自家発電で対応しているのか室外の明かりは消えないのですが室内は真っ暗、当然Wi-Fiもストップ通常通信は感度が悪くレベル１程度で使えないプールサイドへ行くしかなくなります。 部屋toプールと私が泊まった時の値段は魅力的なのでゴキブリと暗いのが大丈夫ならそれなりです。

The room was filthy and stinks like sewage.I asked for an extra card which is a standard for every hotel to provide one.theres an extra charges of Php1,000 in order for me to have one.We decided to stay only for a night i couldn’t sleep because of the smell they shouldn’t rate it as a 5 star hotel,no robes, no slippers no phone inside the room ,no safety vaults its like a hostel,until now they haven’t refunded me back with my monies.Avoid this place its not worth it.

On arrival there was no one at the counter we had to go and find someone. The area outside the room was musty and smelt of drains, the shower only works for a matter of seconds before you have to hit the button again, it’s like a swimming pool shower. Cracked sink, the place is very tired. Night 2 saw a cockroach in the room which we chucked out the room and then on night 3 in bed there was a cockroach on the bed - horrific. Didn’t sleep spoke to reception and I said I wanted a refund for the last night and we would go and stay somewhere else which they said wasn’t possible as we booked through hotels.com - asked to move rooms then and they said fine and they would put us not on the ground floor and would put our bags in the new room. Arrived later in the day having been out all day only to be found we had literally been moved to the adjacent room. Complained and finally got put on the first floor. If there are cockroaches in the rooms there are cockroaches in the kitchen. Couldn’t wait to get out of there

The large pool in the center of the hotel is very attractive. The dining area is very pleasant, staff is friendly and effecient and its only a short tricycle ride to Alona beach. The wifi is stable and strong. The standard room is just adequate. The bathroom couldnt have been smaller. The shower has a water saving action that cuts off the flow every 10 seconds. Very annoying and the water is barely look warm.

People were out late making noice at the pool right outside our patio and the beds only had sheets for blankets. Other than those two things the stay was excellent. The water pressure was fabulous, bed is comfortable and the place is very clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The one gentleman flagged down a cab for us.

On pictures everything looks nice, but in real its often different. Check in was ok, the ladys friendly. The room was to the pool with balcony, as requested, but the walls and the connection door to the other room, was so thin, that you could hear everything your neighbor said or did. Very noisy in generel. The breakfast staff startet playing loud music at 6am when they arrived, 2 songs, but enough that the sleep was interrupted. Saturday evening there was some people having a party. That fine, i like partys as well, but i dont like that they are singing at screaming until 3am in the morning. When down to ask the reception for help, there was an old night guard, almost sleeping. He did not really understood, but i heard he was talking to the party people, but it did not really help. 2 nights spoiled. The restaurant was so far ok. But very limited according to breakfast. Dinner was ok as well, but also very limited, but they at least tried to make it up to us and the food tastet good. Then they also should think about, that there are diabetics guests. They did not have any stuff for that. All over, not the best stay, and i would rather pay more for an better place, then come again. The value of the stay does not fit the price for a maximum 2 star hotel.

Nous avions pris avec petit déjeuner inclus… très déçu c était juste 2 tranches de pain, beurre confiture et café ! On avais faim ! Il fallait payer en plus si on voulais fruits, pancake etc …. Pas correct quand on book un hôtel et ajoute l option avec petit déjeuner inclus ! Sinon c est agréable d’y passer 2/3 jours

It's fairly decent for the price within the area. Few minutes tryke ride to Alona Beach so it's well within proximity to where the night life is. Very hot water in the shower (which doesn't help given the climate). Have raised many times but we were told it's been adjusted already. Vault wasn't working -- been raised as well but no fix at all. It is good value but had to check out a day early when we found another accommodation. We were given the wrong room upon check-in, luckily the guy inside wasn't naked at all (could've been worse). But didn't make a fuss out of it, human error happens at times. Overall, you get what you pay for. If you have the $$$ I'd recommend somewhere else, otherwise Roman Empire has its own character and charm if on a budget.

部屋からプール直が良くて予約をしましたが交通の便が悪いにもかかわらずレンタルバイクなどの対応がフロントではありません。 尋ねるとビーチで借りられます,ビーチまでは2キロ以上あるのだが...(広い通りまで300m位歩けばトライシクルが拾えます) 毎夜ゴキブリとの戦い、二晩目の夜同行者にまたいたと言ったら私は昨夜二匹見たそうで同じ個体かもですが私はその都度サンダルで潰しているので少なくとも三匹は... 朝食もフィリピンの一般的な朝ごはん値段なりでしょうか。 土地柄停電の頻発には困りました、一部は自家発電で対応しているのか室外の明かりは消えないのですが室内は真っ暗、当然Wi-Fiもストップ通常通信は感度が悪くレベル１程度で使えないプールサイドへ行くしかなくなります。 部屋toプールと私が泊まった時の値段は魅力的なのでゴキブリと暗いのが大丈夫ならそれなりです。

Roman empire is a very nice hotel with a very frien staff, the filipino food is very good the sigsig and kinilaw were amazing. The pool and restaurant area are very nice and relaxing. Beside the hotel you can catch a trike into Alona beach for a short ride. We had an amazing time and will visit again.

Pros: - Close to Panglao airport - Has amazing pool - Delicious food at restaurant - Friendly staff - Aircon in room - Parking available Cons: - No toiletries. There is a shampoo/body wash combo but no conditioner, or other toiletries a standard resort offers.

The large pool in the center of the hotel is very attractive. The dining area is very pleasant, staff is friendly and effecient and its only a short tricycle ride to Alona beach. The wifi is stable and strong. The standard room is just adequate. The bathroom couldnt have been smaller. The shower has a water saving action that cuts off the flow every 10 seconds. Very annoying and the water is barely look warm.

The friendly staff at the hotel really made our trip they were very kind and helpfull. The Roman theme was very unique. And the dinning area by the pool was very relaxing and enjoyable we tried some phillipino food at the restaurant the sigsig was amazing. The tuna kinilaw was also very good i would definitely stay here again.

Hôtel sympa, belle et très grande piscine Chambre agréable, lit confortable mais juste un simple drap pour se couvrir. La Clim est bruyante. Nous avions pris avec petit déjeuner inclus… très déçu c était juste 2 tranches de pain, beurre confiture et café ! On avais faim ! Il fallait payer en plus si on voulais fruits, pancake etc …. Pas correct quand on book un hôtel et ajoute l option avec petit déjeuner inclus ! Sinon c est agréable d’y passer 2/3 jours

Bassenget var flott. Restauranten serverte virkelig god mat fra kontinental meny, og de som jobbet i restauranten var så oppmerksomme og serviceinnstilte. Var veldig fornøyd med alt på dette hotellet og kommer gjerne tilbake.

The place is nice. I won’t recommend the food (pork still have hairs and too hard), but brekafast was fine. Guard needs to be trained not to discriminate customers by its race. He prioritized the foreigners even he was already assisting us. He left us during the heavy rain going to our car service and took the umbrella with him and assisted the foreigners instead .

Great hotel, pool was definitely the highlight and what made me book. Staff were helpful as much as possible, some didnt understand english too much but it was good enough. Restaurant was good and check in was flawless. Checkout couldve been a bit faster but overall a great experience. The room had a few tiny little imperfections but small enough it didnt bother me. Id go back as long as the price doesnt increase too much.
