Our Linden Suites Staycation Overview
Last week, we left our place in Cavite to my mom because we were going to Ortigas and have a staycation at Linden Suites. The first time I’ve been to this hotel was when I was still new in blogging and attended a Celeteque event on their roof deck with other mommy and beauty bloggers.
Since we just commuted to get there, we passed by SM Megamall first to have our lunch (at Din Tai Fung) before checking in at the hotel. We just walked from Megamall to Linden which is just at the back of San Miguel Corporation’s building.
The original date that I asked for a reservation was supposed to be today August 19-20, they replied after 4 days that these days are not available already, so we decided to move it to an earlier schedule.
It was raining and there were still some guests in the lobby waiting for their rides at exactly 2 PM when we arrived. Just like any other hotel, they asked for a valid ID and a deposit that’s refundable upon checking out.
Linden Suites is a 4-star hotel in the metro. Here’s a peek of our Deluxe Room that is located on the 21st floor.

The original plan is to go out for dinner, but because it was raining hard, we decided to just order a room service from Happy Chef.
We ordered Fried Chicken and Molo Soup.
Our booking comes with a FREE breakfast buffet for two. I just paid for Ren’s meal that is 50% off from the adult’s rate (that rate is valid up to 12 years old).
They called our attention when they saw that we are wearing our bedroom slippers at the restaurant. We are used to doing this in every staycation that we have so we thought that there’s nothing wrong with it. We wear our bedroom slippers because it’s more comfortable than wearing our shoes and we are just at the hotel’s vicinity naman. Anyway, that’s a lesson we should learn, baka yung mga 5 star hotels na napuntahan namin pinagbibigyan lang kami kaya di kami sinisita hehe.
It’s unusual for us not to use the pool during a staycation, but since as I have mentioned it was raining at that time and it’s so cold, we did not take a dip in their indoor pool. They said that the temperature of the pool is regulated but I don’t want us to get sick so I did not think twice not to use it anymore.
It’s a good thing that we have a bathtub in the room, so that’s where I enjoyed an hour bubble bath 🙂
You can get a Deluxe Room with FREE breakfast for 2 from Agoda for P3,400, the walk in rate is P6,000.
Feedback:
1. The bed is okay, but it’s sad that there are only 2 pillows provided. I called the customer service and asked for additional pillows.
2. They only have one bathrobe and bedroom slippers inside the cabinet, so again I called the customer service to request for additional.
3. They have a bidet and we like it.
4. If you like an indoor pool to avoid the sun, then Linden has one.
5. Their massage rate is quite affordable.
6. The food are affordable and taste fine.
Overall, if you are looking for an affordable yet decent place to stay that is near the busy area of Ortigas, then you might want to consider Linden Suites.
But if you are looking for a better option with the same rate then I would suggest Bellevue Hotel in Alabang more for the five-star feel.
As usual, here’s our signature Hotel staycation photo 🙂
