Go Hotels Bacolod has been around for several years already in Bacolod City. But it was only recently that we stayed overnight for a little family staycation. If you are looking for cheap but safe and clean hotels in Bacolod City, this is a suggestion.
Ever since my husband and I had kids, it has almost always been family travel for us. Blame it on the fact that we don’t have a babysitter or maybe it’s just because, I personally don’t like the kids missing out on what I am experiencing. So one of the things that we did as a family is to have a family staycation at Go Hotels here in Bacolod City.
Go Hotels Bacolod
Go Hotels Bacolod is the go-to place for a budget traveler. It has decent, clean, and secure rooms at prices that are very easy on the budget. Will tell you later how to get the best rates at Go Hotels anywhere in the Philippines.
Go Hotels Bacolod Location
The location of Go Hotels Bacolod is very strategic because it’s just a few meters away from Lacson Street, a main thoroughfare of Bacolod City. It is just behind the Robinsons Place Bacolod mall, which has everything you need for shopping, dining, and even entertainment.
Since Lacson Street is a commercial area, a lot of businesses are here, so most likely, your business will just be pretty much around the area. And Lacson Street is also now famous for the many homegrown Bacolod restaurants that have peppered the area.
Go Hotels Bacolod is located at the northern area of the city and is just roughly 20 minutes away from the Bacolod-Silay Airport. Airport shuttles are available at the mall for your convenience.
Lobby | Common Area
Go Hotels Bacolod has a spacious lobby with lots of chairs and tables around. Since it is a budget hotel, you would understand that this common area is not air conditioned.
However, the place is very clean and tidy. Also, they positioned it that it does not face the rising or the setting sun, so direct sunlight does not go in. So although it’s not air conditioned, it is not very hot.
There are different booths where you can buy toiletries or instant noodles or make bookings for rentals.
Room and Toiletries
The room is simple and clean and nice. But it was small. It’s good for budget travel or for official business, when you need a clean and secure accommodation, it’s nice for up to two persons max.
Otherwise, you may fit up to three people on the two single beds combined but the entire room can get cramped. In our case, there’s 2 grown-ups (my husband and I) and two young kids. My husband felt it was too crowded while it was hard for me to sleep.
Toiletries are basic. But you get soap, shampoo, and bathroom tissue. If you want other stuff, you can opt for add-ons at the reception.
Go Hotels Bacolod Amenities
I am not sure what the other amenities are but I do know that they have an air conditioned function room for meetings or small gatherings. And Weego Bistro can cater the affair.
Staff
Generally, the staff that we have encountered are nice and helpful from the reception to the housekeeping. Actually, we go there earlier than check in time. The room was available but not ready for occupancy.
The hotel staff that we talked to made up the room very quickly and efficiently so that we won’t have to wait for their housekeeping staff (who were still on break at that time) to come back.
Price
When I approached the front hotel staff about the rates, I was told that Go Hotels doesn’t have a set tariff. But if you are a walk in client, the rate is P1,500 per standard room.
How do you get the room at a cheaper rate?
If you have plans of traveling to any city in the Philippines, book your accommodations early with Go Hotels. You can get their standard at only P88 per night if you are early. So I guess, if you plan early, you will be blessed with very low rates.

Wifi
Wifi is available to the guests of Go Hotels Bacolod. It was pretty fast when were there but I wasn’t able to work because the room was too crowded and the folding table was not very secure to hold my laptop.
Food
There is no breakfast buffet at Go Hotels Bacolod. But you can have all your meals at the Weego Bistro on the ground floor. It’s an art cafe with a nice vibe and some good food. They serve them very affordably, too.
Additionally, there are so many Bacolod restaurants at Robinsons Place Bacolod and also along Lacson Street. You will never go hungry here, even at midnight.
So will we stay in Go Hotels when we travel? We would. But I don’t think we will share the room as a whole family though.

Glad you had fun as a family at Go Hotels Bacolod. I always travel with my kids and always look for comfortable places and other amenities in the hotel. The fun part about family travel is the memories you create with them.
How fun! I’ve never been to the Philippines but now I have a recommended hotel to stay! Love how you put the beds together at Go Hotels for a giant family bed, great idea with little ones.
Yeah we always try to put the beds together in a hotel, as long as it’s possible. But at Go Hotels, I think it will only work if you only have one child. It was kinda crowded for us here.
I always stay in hotels whenever I travel. I’ll definitely consider Go Hotels when I visit Bacolod. 88 pesos per night is superrr affordable!
I know right! But you need super advanced booking to get that P88 at any of the Go Hotels branches all over the Philippines.
Sounds like fun! I’ve always wanted to go to this country it’s defo on my bucket list. Go Hotels is a decent place to stay in.
Go Hotels looks like a great place to stay in while in Bacolod. So many things to love about the Philippines! It’s really beautiful out there.
looks like a good place to take the family and have fun together! Glad it was a clean and friendly place to stay!
Go Hotels seems like a good hotel for the money, in a place with things nearby. Although it sounds a bit small, I guess with budget hotels you get what you pay for!
You guys are the coolest family! I love that you take the kids everywhere you go. Go Hotels Bacolod looks like it was a wonderful place to stay for those people on a budget. The art cafe looks adorable and I love how you pushed the beds together. Almost like a slumber party! xx

I love how colourful this place is and the ground look gorgeous! Go Hotels looks like a great place to stay, thanks for sharing!
Fair review, with all the pictures that you’ve posted not bad for the price. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah, GoHotels Bacolod is actually very cheap. 😀 Especially for advanced booking.
How clean is this hotel, but first of all can I just say how massive is that bed. Enough to fit the whole family and then some in. Go Hotels is nice!
Oh, we just moved the two single beds together so it looks “massive” hahaha Kidding aside, the room is very small and Go Hotels. But it is nice and decent and secure. You just can’t cramp the whole fam in there though 😀
Hotels like this are convenient and comfortable. Simple design, but best for staycation! Way to go for Go hotels!
Go hotels seems like a good value for money. Simple but comfy! Hope you had a great time
