Hotel Villa Angelina

Bicol


Villa Angelina is an ageing ancestral home in a central but quiet location a couple of blocks south of Albay's main street. Second-floor rooms are reached via a sweeping staircase – ask for one of the north-facing rooms opening onto a shared balcony with superb views of Mt Mayon. Friendly staff but no restaurant.
