The Manila Hotel is always a classic. Great ambiance especially the rooms, had an ancestral vibe. Staff are courteous, super helpful and very much engaging. The only thing I can point out are, the glasses in the sliding drawer looks dirty, it had those thick white marks like they’ve been there for ages. I appreciate the welcome fruits and chocolates, I wish they place new fruits everyday and Filipino fruits rather than the ones you eat at home. They have a currency exchange booth but they’re so particular with the bills being bent and don’t bring the older $100 US notes bcoz they don’t take them, such disappointment. Maybe the room needs upgrading or renovating on the carpet, our room had bad stains on the floor and ripped carpet parts. Breakfast buffet is good but I wish they would have different food each morning or at least keep the Pinoy breakfast classics. Love the taho, champorado )too bad just one day they had it, I was there for 4 days and 4 nights. They have complimentary 1 car self-parking, I wish they do complimentary too for valet parking. Kudos to all the staff from the guard at the parking, to the bell boys, the staff who assisted outside the driveway, the guards, the reception, the Ilang-Ilang staff who made my daughter’s birthday memorable, and the housekeepers.

The hotel itself is absolutely superb! The grounds are super clean and elegant as was the room. The room has everything I needed, from a bathrobe to high-quality personal hygiene items. The breakfast buffet was AMAZING and high quality with some of the best coffee I’ve ever had! The staff were very friendly and helpful for the most part, although I had some concerns with them gossiping (assuming I didn’t understand the language) and not providing me with the same level of service as other guests. Finally, if you are a male who is not seeking “extra services,” I would not recommend visiting the spa; I was very surprised and offended of such an offer, which made for a very awkward moment. Aside from initiating an “investigation” into this matter by management, they made no attempt to make up for the damage and awkwardness that I felt for the duration of my stay. I’d definitely recommend the hotel and I’d stay there again after having learned some valuable lessons.

I really enjoyed my time at the Manila Hotel. It was my second stay there. I'm very impressed by all the upgrades done to the hotel since my last stay two years ago. The only issues I had was during the week I was there I had killed 4 roaches in my room. Once the roach was walking on the wall above my head by the bed which made me feel really uncomfortable during the remainder of my stay.
