Mercure Mactan Cebu

Mactan Newtown, Mactan Island, Cebu

A Mercure hotel in Mactan, Cebu offering guests exclusive access to Mactan Newtown Beach, blending Cebuano heritage-inspired comfort with contemporary amenities.

Last updated August 11, 2026

Mercure Mactan Cebu is an Accor ALL property located in the Mactan Newtown development on Mactan Island, Cebu. The hotel is positioned within a master-planned township that includes residential, commercial, and leisure components, with in-house guests receiving exclusive access to Mactan Newtown Beach and the adjacent Marine and Bird Sanctuary — a notable differentiator for a midscale hotel. The Mercure brand's 'locally inspired' approach manifests in Cebuano heritage touches woven through the interiors, alongside the brand's expected standards of comfortable rooms, a restaurant, and functional business and leisure facilities. Mactan Island is Cebu's primary beach and resort zone, home to most of the area's international hotels, and is connected to Cebu City via the Mactan-Mandaue Bridge (roughly 30 minutes' drive). The hotel serves both business travellers visiting the Mactan Economic Zone and leisure guests wanting beach access at a more accessible price point than Mactan's luxury resorts. For ALL Accor elite members, standard programme benefits apply: welcome drink, room upgrades for Platinum and Diamond subject to availability, and early check-in and late check-out for Diamond. As the only Accor ALL property currently confirmed in Cebu, it is the programme's sole loyalty-redeemable option in this key Philippine destination.
