Litton Hotel Naga City: Stylish stays with loft rooms in Bicol

Kara Santos

Since pandemic restrictions have eased, we’ve been traveling back to our hometown of Naga City in Bicol more frequently these days. During our last trip to Naga in August 2023, my sister and I stayed in one of the newest hotels in Camarines Sur called Litton Hotel by Carterson. This modern and stylish boutique hotel is the first to offer loft-type rooms in Naga City.

Those looking for a new place to stay in Naga City for business or leisure trips with family in the coming months might want to consider this hotel. With many Bicolanos returning home after working abroad for the peak holiday season and reunions and special events back in full swing, Litton Hotel offers a new place to stay and dine, as well as a classy event venue option in town.

Location

Litton Hotel is located along Magsaysay Avenue, just walking distance from the Basilica of Our Lady of Peñafrancia, Our Lady of Peñafrancia Shrine, and the City Hall. It’s located at the center of Naga City’s vibrant business, lifestyle, and dining district for food-tripping. Nearby restaurants include Chef Doy’s, Geewan, Bob Marlin, and more.

Ambiance

The lobby lounge of the hotel is elegant, well-lit, and beautifully designed, showcasing Bicolano culture and landmarks through paintings and sculptures, but with a modern touch.

I liked the minimalist painting that depicted the silhouette of mountains, the sculptural bird details adorning the ceiling, and the modern rendition of Ina, the virgin statue famously celebrated during the Peñafrancia Festival every September.

The color scheme of white and shades of blue makes the place look clean and airy. The lobby’s interiors are ideal for photo shoots, like debuts, prenup shoots, and weddings.

Rooms

The five-story property offers 40 modern rooms with the same minimalist Scandinavian look and seven accommodation options. My sister and I stayed overnight in one of the Deluxe Twin rooms, a 25-sqm room with two single beds, ideal for those traveling with colleagues or family members.

Each room comes with standard amenities, including a flat-screen TV with cable channels, high-quality linens, a desk, easily accessible power outlets, and coffee and tea-making facilities. I appreciated the effort to reduce plastic waste, as each room is provided with a pitcher of water instead of plastic bottles, while shampoo and soap containers in the bathroom are placed in refillable containers instead of single-use sachets or containers.

Other room types at the hotel include the Deluxe Queen (25 sqm), Deluxe Triple (30 sqm) rooms, Premier Loft Triple (45 sqm), Premier Loft Quad (55 sqm), 1-Bedroom Suite (50 sqm) and 2-Bedroom suite (90 sqm).

The Litton Hotel prides itself on being the first hotel in Naga City to offer loft-type rooms specially designed for families, friends and colleagues, which we requested to see for possible future stays with my sister’s kids.

For families and groups who want more space, the Loft rooms (Triple and Quad) are ideal for family staycations, while the Litton Suite (1-BR and 2-BR) are for those who want best-in-class comfort and amenities. The loft rooms boast of a high-ceiling ground floor, a spacious living area with a sofa set, a work desk, a coffee- and tea-making facility, a flat TV with cable, and a closed wardrobe with full-length sliding doors

In the triple and quad loft rooms, which can accommodate three to four adults, up to two children 12 years and younger may stay in the room with parents, for free, using existing bedding.

Dining

All room stays come with a complimentary plated breakfast and access to a mini-buffet of other breakfast dishes like pancakes, salad, fruits, coffee and drinks.

The hotel’s cafe and lounge also offers an ala carte menu with a unique mix of Mediterranean, American, and Filipino cuisine, and an extensive list of wines, cocktails, and non-alcoholic beverages for lunch and dinner options.

I also noticed a few international beers and craft beers available at their bar.

Lobby lounge and meeting rooms

The hotel doesn’t have a pool or spa, but it has other amenities that business and leisure travelers can make use of on short stays.

For those based in Naga City looking for a meeting space, the hotel offers three compact function rooms (The Café Meeting Room, Tomson & Fortune Meeting Room, and Sol Meeting Room) for small business functions, work meetings, and intimate social gatherings with family and friends. The cafe also accommodates diners who aren’t checked in, so it’s worth a visit if you want to try dining somewhere new in town.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay here and would consider staying here again the next time we travel to Naga City.
