The Peninsula Manila Hotel

I stayed at the Peninsula Manila for only two nights for a couple meetings in Manila. I wasn't sure what to expect as I know the hotel is rather old and there are a lot of new 5 star options. Wow, I was surprised. It is elegant, beautiful and the service is one of the best I've ever experienced. The rooms are a bit tired, but really well maintained. It has a classic look. Although I laughed when I saw a fax machine in the desk drawer. I would like to see some type of charging ports for phones, but other than that the room was nice. Service was friendly and attentive. The garden and pool area was nice and quite, plenty of shade if needed. I like the location in Makati, in walking distance to main shopping, business and even night life area. In all fairness, I also managed to book a grand deluxe room with king size bed. It was a nice stay!

The Peninsula Hotel in Manila fully lived up to the name of the brand. Excellent hotel with a beautiful lobby with well selected repertoire of live music in the afternoons and evening. Enormous variety of options for breakfast. Very comfortable rooms and very friendly, efficient service. Only 5 minutes walk from two of the best mega shopping centers in Manila (Glorietta and Green Belt). Recommend this hotel without hesitation. Our stay here is awesome! I really love the view! The room is clean and just the right amount of space for two people. The mattress of the bed is soft and nice. The pillows are soft enough for me. I had a wonderful sleep. The bathroom is well-lit. There's a bathtub and a separated shower. The basics are provided. It's clean!

Our first base when we got to Manila for a family vacation. Stayed in for 2 nights before heading to North. We arrived at 7 am and they blissfully checked us in. I booked a supreme room and requested for 2 double beds during check in. However, the attendant told me that the only room available at that time was King bed. But with a family of four, although with 2 small kids, 1 king bed will be uncomfortable. He gave me the option to wait for 30 mins to have a room with 2 double beds be cleaned, which i happily accepted. But to our surprise, he offered us the same king bed room and gave us an extra bed free of charge. Coming from a 15 hour flight, that is the service you want to welcome you. Our room was in the corner, so we had a great view of the city. The bed and pillows were ridiculously comfortable. Bathroom were all marbled and the shower and toilet were both separated to give everyone the needed space. Breakfast was great with mixture of Filipino and continental, which was included in our room rate. What made their service an exceptional was the day of our departure. We had to catch a 7 am flight and so we requested a room service at 4 am. I was expecting a simple egg, ham & bread kind of plate but oh boy, i was wrong. It was a breakfast for royals. We just felt bad that we couldn't eat everything as my 2 kids are light eaters. I'm very happy with our stay in Peninsula. I would definitely go back and would recommend it to everyone.

Our stay, we got the Superior Room because we just need it for the night, just to sleep, because we are headed south the next day. The room is clean and just the right amount of space for two people. The mattress of the bed is soft and nice. Pillows are soft enough for me. I had a wonderful sleep. Bathroom is well-lit. There's a bathtub and a separated shower. The basics are provided.

Stayed here during the Abbott Activity last Feb 16 to 17. Check in was a little hassle since they were overwhelmed by the numerous numbers of MD's who checked in that day. We were checked in almost 3 pm already. But we were allowed to check out late at 1 pm. The lobby of the hotel is a classic beauty. Everything classic and vintage and well designed but well maintained. All staff were very friendly and courteous. I stayed here with my best friend and really loved the room. Very clean and well maintained despite of the age. Great tasting food at the breakfast buffet. Instagram worthy gardens and pool view. I only stayed for a day but it's all worth it! And it's just a walking distance to Glorietta if you love shopping and foods. Will definitely be back for my future conventions.

The hotel lobby is amazing, they preserved its luxurious decor and style. I was surprised with the big birthday cheesecake they gave me as I was celebrating my birthday with my family. Very generous and warmth gesture. Thank you so much! We didn't bring the car as we thought it was just close to the mall but it was quite a walk and no escalator in the tunnel with kid on a stroller We took a cab going back to the hotel.

very nice in all but not suitable to business
