Backpackers who want to explore Makati but are working with a budget can choose to stay at the budget-friendly Lokal Hostel. Aside from its great location in Makati’s Poblacion district, the hotel has comfortable accommodations and personalized service that make every stay a memorable one.
The hotel’s Poblacion location gives guests easy access to several Makati destinations. The Ayala Triangle Gardens are a seven-minute drive away, while the Ninoy Aquino Monument is 11 minutes away. Other monuments close by are the Pio del Pilar Monument and the Sultan Kudarat Monument, which are six minutes and 11 minutes away, respectively.
Dorm rooms and private rooms are the room types available to guests, who also have a choice between air-conditioned rooms or fan rooms. All rooms have complimentary WiFi access, while private rooms have en suite bathrooms and a shower. Towels and toiletries can be had for a surcharge.
The restaurant serves breakfast with surcharge, but guests can also opt to explore the foodie haven that is Poblacion instead. Holy Smokes BBQ and its authentic Texas-style barbecue is a six-minute walk away. Hip rooftop restaurant The Wild Poppy is four minutes away by foot, and so Empingao, which serves Latin American comfort food. Travelers who need to catch up in business can also use the hotel’s computer station and meeting facilities.
Poblacion is also where one can party, and the hotel is near to several party venues. El Chupacabra is three minutes away by foot while Ringside Bar is right across the hotel. Bars like Jools Cabaret and The Woodman’s Head are just a two minute walk away.
