Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Manila, making it accessible to many attractions, but it is in an area that some may find unsafe. The rooms vary from having no windows to featuring small windows with limited views, and some come with bath tubs or better window views. The service levels vary from lacking understanding of reservations to going above and beyond for guests.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was superb, right in the heart of Manila with easy access to everything. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but the window was ridiculously small. The service exceeded my expectations with attentive staff. However, the dining experience was not exceptional as the dishes were of average quality.
The hotel is situated right in the heart of Manila, making it accessible to almost everything. The rooms, though without a view, were comfortable, and the service from the guards to the receptionists exceeded my expectations. However, the hotel is located in a less than desirable neighborhood. The dining experience was satisfactory with Dutch products available.

I stayed at this hotel and had a mixed experience. The location was great, but there were some drawbacks like the small window in my room and an uncomfortable bed. The service was decent, though there were some hiccups with my reservation. The dining options were limited, and the area around the hotel was not the safest. However, the facilities were adequate for my needs.
The hotel has a ridiculously small window in the room, but the view is simply breathtaking. The bed is ridiculously uncomfortable, just like in the photos. However, the staff exceeded all expectations in their services from the guards to the receptionists. They were incredibly attentive and went out of their way to make my stay special. The location is right at Doroteo Jose station, which is ideal for exploring the city. However, it's in a very bad area, so caution is advised when going out. The dining experience was a delightful surprise with home-made Majorcan products offered. The facilities are top-notch, with everything you'd expect from a luxury hotel.
The hotel has a central location, right at Doroteo Jose station, which is convenient for exploring Manila. The rooms are decent but have extremely uncomfortable beds. The service from the guards to the receptionists was outstanding. However, there were some issues with processing reservations. The dining experience was pleasant but lacked variety in breakfast options. Overall, the price was reasonable for the value provided.
