Palm Rock Residences

My wife and I were here for several days back in January and enjoyed the stay very much !! Staff is pleasant and friendly. Room was very cozy and was like a sanctuary. I was very pleased to visit and stay here for several days. It was odd to be here in January and wear a short sleeve shirt instead of winter jacket If your in the Makati area and need to relax, this place is for you,.!

We really loved our stay at palm rock. The whole hotel is very clean and in an excellent condition. Rooms are modern and cozy. The aircon works very well and is silent. Bathroom in excellent condition. The free WiFi was working well and provided very fast internet connection. The staff were all very friendly and professional. Only small downside was that most taxi drivers in Manila don't know about this place and so we had some difficulties getting there from the airport. On the following days we always told the taxi drivers to drop us off at the nearby power plant mall and walked to the hotel from there - after having dinner at one of the many good restaurants in the mall. The breakfast served was typical Filipino food of good quality. It depend on your taste though whether you will be happy with it. I would have loved to see an international breakfast option as an alternative. Since the hotel has no dining area, the breakfast is served in-room. Over all we were totally happy with our stay at Palm Rock and will probably come back, if we are visiting Manila again.

I'm so happy we scored a very affordable room accommodation here through Hotel Quickly! I've been to hotels with the same price range (Solace and Artina Suites) but Palm Rock is my favorite! here are my reasons why :) 1. As said, its very affordable. Via Hotel Quickly you could book a night at only 1700-1800 PHP. Early check in is allowed (i think since the hotel is not crowded at the time). We were boarded at 1:00 PM. 2. Clean and cute rooms. It doesn't look so gloomy like the ones we had at Artina Suites. We stayed at room 1001 and its nice. It's a standard room, not so spacious but enough to accommodate 3 guest (2 adults and 1 kid). They have vault, cute bathroom, good set of toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, soap, toothbrush, cotton buds and shower cap) and a good blow dryer :) Would like to take note that their door lock is the manual deadbolt lock and not the keycard type but still feels secure. 3. Its near Rockwell and Makati Avenue... Makati Ave is about 10 mins away by brisk walk, there are a lot of nearby bar and restaurants. 4. Friendly staffs and 24/7 security. Cons of staying here 1. Its just basic. This hotel doesn't have anything to offer but room accommodation, no gym, no restaurant and no pool. 2. Its not at the main street so taxis is nowhere to be found, you will need GRAB or UBER app to book for your transportation or have the reception book it for you. 3. They don't have elevator (as of March 2017). It's currently under maintenance. :( You will have to use stairs. Good thing we're at the 2nd level, only few staircases to take.. 4.For rooms facing the street, expect a lot of noise in the morning but should be okay if you're out all day long. 5. I guess we can exclude this one but i am writing it so others will be informed - they don't have flat iron.. :( So i suggest, don't bring crease clothing/non wrinkle resistant ones. :)

I stayed here for 2 nights with friends. Although I had few hick ups staffs attentively fixed it straight away. I stayed at the loft type room, very spacious but I wish the bed is a little bigger as it felt like it was only semi double bed. =) The security guard on duty for 24 hours on the 31st of December ( short, fairly slim, mid 30's from Masbate) Can't remember his name. He is very friendly and always willing to help to carry my food shopping =) I will definitely stay here again!

The room is surprisingly spacious. I like how there are glass panels on one wall which allow sunlight into the the bedroom. The area is not exactly central but close enough (by foot) to Power Plant/the Rockwell commercial neighborhood. It's also just a few blocks from Poblacion where a thriving food scene is attracting locals and tourists alike. Overall, the place offers great value for money. Tip: Visit the nearby Pineapple Lab for art exhibits and walk to El Chupacabra for beer and Mexican fair.
