Fantastic 5.0
transport access: Good. Near malls, the airport, and easy to locate. cleanliness: Spotless bedroom. Very clean linens and quality sheets breakfast: Good buffet selection with both Filipino and Western options service: Fastest check-in and check-out we every experienced in all hotels we tried so far. Nice staff and they even treated me with a complimentary cake for my birthday. I couldn’t believe how good it was, usually I don’t like free cakes but surprised we honestly enjoyed it.😁Thank you

My stay in this hotel is good. They provided the basic necessities, good bed, good sheets and linens, basic toiletries. They also provides glass and water dispenser outside the room. aside from that, it is conveniently located near Mcdonalds and Jollibee, watson’s, mercury drugs. Some problems encountered were only 1 elevator is functioning, and its a bit slow. bath towels were really old, easily damaged and were darkened in color.

I am giving this review 5 stars because the kind staff allowed me to stay in my room ahead of time. The location is quite good as it is walking distance to several restaurants, including SM Lanang if you enjoy walking, like me. Please take the next part of this review constructively. The room needs some improvement: outlets by the bed are not working, the window in the comfort room is stuck and cannot be closed entirely so you hear the noise of the aircon compressor the entire time and a lot of insects also use the opening as entry way. The photos attached here are some places I visited as I did not take any picture of the room. Thank you!

The hotel is located in a very convenient place. The areas such as the lobby and the room are clean and sanitized. They also gave me complimentary water and basic necessities kit. It’s very affordable too.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable. The bed was soft, and I had a great sleep every night. I also liked the modern design and the beautiful view from the window. The staff were friendly, polite, and always ready to help whenever I needed assistance. The location was very convenient because it was close to restaurants, shops, and transportation. The Wi-Fi connection was fast, and the room amenities were complete and well-maintained. Overall, I was very satisfied with my experience and would definitely recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

I booked a Deluxe Room for two at DusitD2 Davao for my sister so she could experience a five-star hotel and enjoy its lavish buffet breakfast. To our surprise, we were upgraded to a Junior Suite upon check-in, which became the highlight of our stay. My sister and I were absolutely delighted by the spacious room, luxurious amenities, and VIP-level comfort. The buffet breakfast remains one of my favorites—offering a wonderful selection and excellent quality. Although it was only an overnight stay, we had an exquisite and memorable experience. Thank you to the wonderful staff for making our visit extra special. We are already looking forward to our next stay at DusitD2 Davao.

What to know before visiting Davao

Quick snapshot of Davao’s experiences

Davao’s most-booked activities on Klook are water activities and guided tours, and demand follows a clear seasonal rhythm. Bookings peak in August while demand is much lower around March, so the city’s year swings between lively high season and quieter months.

Best times to visit and how prices move

Klook booking data show August as the busiest month and March as the quietest. Prices drift through the year: Klook’s data indicate December is typically the cheapest month while May is typically the priciest, and prices rise and fall independently of demand at times. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for December or the calmer months around March–May; for full peak-season atmosphere go in August when demand is highest. Note that some months (for example late-year versus mid-year) can show higher demand without the very highest prices, so check both crowd and price trends before you decide.

Tips for travellers from the United States

Most travellers from the United States who book Davao experiences on Klook tend to finalise plans about five days ahead, with some booking as late as two days before travel and others booking earlier. If your trip is under a week you can stay flexible and still find activities on short notice; if you prefer peak-month travel in August consider securing popular water activities or tours earlier to lock in choices. Use Klook to compare timing and pick options that suit whether you want lower prices or peak-season energy.
