First time to Philippines. 17 day trip. Stayed in three different 5-star hotels in Makati and a dive resort in Mabini. The Manila Hotel experience is head and shoulders above all the others. It’s the only one I want to go back to. It’s probably going to make all of the hotels I stay at in the future seem inferior.

Grand dame of Philippine hotels

It’s really awesome to stay at the ‘grand dame’ of hotels in the Philippines. So classy. I’d choose it over newly-build, ultra-modern hotels that are hyped-up and overpriced.

The Manila hotel is an icon in the Philippines. Presidents and diplomats stay there and MacArthur is a famous tenant. So much history and they have a museum, original art, Nara furniture, luxury chandeliers. I love that all the employees wear traditional Filipino dressings. The bed mattresses are top notch firm. It’s walkable to Rizal Park and the National Museums. Intramuros is a car ride away. Mall of Asia is also a car ride away. We had a very nice productive stay for just 2 nights. And the breakfast and dinner buffet were excellent.

Beautiful historic hotel with great service.

The Manila Hotel is a Manila classic. It's a beautiful and elegant hotel and it showcases the historic Spanish Colonial influence in the Philippines (if that is your thing). The rooms have the old classic luxury feel and the food was great.

After this trip, I don't know if I can stay anywhere else in Manila. The mixture of old world architecture and charm, combined with all the amenities of a modern luxury hotel coupled with amazing, attentive and friendly staff blew me away. One afternoon I spent an hour in the lobby just drinking in the vibe.

First, the hotel has made a great decision to maintain it's beautiful antique design, which is it's strong point. It also maintains long-term staff which provides something few environments offer: continuity of relationships over years. It is rare and important to have people know us over many years and it makes the Manila Hotel feel like a home. This is it's key value for me. It's also a fact that grace and excellence are eroding with thime: * Small details are not repaired all over the hotel. * The beautiful greeters with welcome drinks are less and less common (the airline staff were getting a welcome drink and I had to ask for one this time). * The fruit in the buffet was minimal and not as fresh as it could be. Nino, manager at the buffet is always a highlight of my visit - he makes me feel welcome every time for 15 years.

Clean, excellent service and location! Everyone knows the the hotel is grand but old. I booked two (2) rooms, one facing Manila bay and the other room that we stayed in 16th floor faces Intramuros. The Bldg needs a little bit of maintenance as the outside shows paint peeling off when I look from my window. Manila Hotel is my Go To hotel and would stay there again whenever I am back in their area.
