We stayed in General Santos City especially because we were visiting relatives over there. It is not so much a tourist place, although there are several nice beach resorts just outside the city that are very pleasant to visit. Another quite interesting place to visit is the harbour, with General Santos City being the tuna centre of the Philippines.

Only used the hotel as a based for our wedding. Hotel is quite close to the only shopping mall in the city. There are restaurants and arcade within the hotel ground. Transportation in order to get around are not a problem since the hotel can either arrange a taxi or for the more adventurous traveller they can try what the locals uses, and that is the "TRICYCLE".

Mostly I visited with friends, and family of friends. We used locally available transportation, mainly tricycle, a very effective means of travel in Gen San. We did not take any tours. The only advise to other travellers would be if you must do business with a bank, trevellers cheques and such, do so at a branch rather than the main office.

With wide cemented roads, being in General Santos is quite breather from the overly polluted Manila. I was on a business trip to General Santos so I did not have time to go around. I hired a cab to bring me to the pier where I had my meetings. I did want to go around after my meetings but the "bomb scare" that had circulated the night before prevented me from doing so. So, I never really got the feel and sight of the city since I was in a hurry to leave after my meetings.
