"Right in the heart of El Nido town, The Funny Lion stands out with 50 designer rooms and an atmosphere that is buzzing but never chaotic. Rooms are bright and functional, each with a veranda overlooking the pool and plenty of little comforts for downtime between adventures. Rooms are smartly laid out, with locally sourced materials, clever lighting, and breezy balconies facing the pool. The all-day restaurant takes design cues from the region’s limestone cliffs, serving fresh seafood alongside a mix of Asian and Continental dishes. It is a well-located base for exploring one of the Philippines’ most cinematic landscapes." - Tablet Hotels
