Hotels with Bars in City of Manila

I requested an ocean-view room, but my English wasn't good enough to explain it properly. I was disappointed when I got a room on the opposite side of the sea. However, they put me on a high floor, and I could see the World Heritage site from my window, which was amazing! 😊 Although it felt a bit old, that added to its historical charm. It was clean everywhere, and the breakfast had a great variety and was delicious. I made some wonderful memories there.

Exciting elevator ride because of the glass walls, we can see the city and Manila Bay. Very clean room and bathroom. I like the magnifying mirror the most. First time to experience buffet breakfast with waiting time to be seated and food trays going empty before they could be refilled — in short too many guests! Food was okay, although few choices for Filipino cuisine.

Staying at City Garden Suites Manila turned out to be a great choice for exploring the historic side of Manila. The location is very convenient — just a short distance from Rizal Park, Intramuros, and shopping areas like Robinsons Place Manila. It made moving around the city easy without long travel time. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, perfect for resting after a full day of walking around Manila. What stood out the most was the hospitality of the staff — they were friendly, accommodating, and always ready to help. If you’re looking for a hotel that balances comfort, location, and affordability, this is definitely a good option when staying in Manila.

This was a great hotel, the staff here was amazing and friendly. They took care of my every request, and need. The hotel was very clean, and hospitable. The breakfast was delicious, and extravagant. They had a wide variety of dishes, there wasn’t any western food though but I didn’t mind, everything else tasted phenomenal. I will certainly be back at this hotel next time I visit my wife again.

The room was very neat and clean. The location is very close to my company, which makes commuting easy. The breakfast by the sea was delicious. Someone came to clean the room daily, maintaining a high standard. The staff were very friendly. The rooms are spacious, bright, and some offer sea views, directly facing Manila Bay.

I chose this hotel to celebrate a special occasion and was genuinely looking forward to the stay. The property itself is beautiful, well-maintained, and offers the quality you would expect from a 4-star hotel. Unfortunately, the service and communication did not meet the same standard. Before my arrival, I submitted a special request and received a response from the hotel with additional information. To avoid any confusion, I even called the hotel to clarify the details. Afterward, I modified my request through the proper channel, assuming it would be reviewed and updated in their system. To my disappointment, the revised request was never acknowledged or acted upon. What is most frustrating is that the hotel had multiple opportunities to review and confirm the updated information, yet it appears that no one checked it. For a 4-star property, attention to guest requests and communication should be a basic expectation, especially when guests are celebrating important occasions. While the facilities are impressive, the lack of attention to detail significantly affected our experience. A beautiful hotel alone is not enough when guest communications are overlooked. This experience left me disappointed and feeling that the hotel fell short of the level of service it advertises. I hope management takes guest requests more seriously and improves its internal communication processes, as this is an area that clearly needs attention.

We had a wonderful stay at Century Park Hotel. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and the staff were very accommodating and friendly throughout our stay. We especially enjoyed the swimming pool area—it was relaxing and perfect for a family staycation. The location is also very convenient, with restaurants, shops, and other establishments nearby. We really appreciated the classic and cozy atmosphere of the hotel. The breakfast was also enjoyable, with a good variety of food to choose from. Overall, we had a pleasant and relaxing experience at Century Park Hotel. We would definitely consider coming back for another staycation. Highly recommended for families and anyone looking for a comfortable hotel in Manila!

I chose this hotel for the location/price. Which were good. If I’m honest it was a bit disappointing. The room was older than the pictures. It was just average. Mostly clean but some dust visible in the corners. Not many plug sockets. The worst part is the large number of homeless people sleeping in the street of the hotel. My partner didn’t feel safe walking at night.

We had a pleasure of staying at Manila Grand Opera Hotel and was thoroughly impressed. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. My room was spotless and beautifully clean,comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. The hotel's location was perfect for exploring the city, and I especially enjoyed the delicious breakfast spread each morning. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting in Manila and will definitely be back!”

The location was good and very convenient. The room itself was decent, but not very clean—especially the windows, which were quite dusty. In our first room, the air conditioner wasn’t working properly so it was too warm, and we had to request a transfer. Thankfully, the second room had a functioning aircon. However, we noticed several issues during our stay. Some of our companions had problems with their shower not working, and when they were supposed to be transferred, the next room’s aircon also wasn’t cooling properly. There were quite a few inconveniences overall. The reception staff didn’t seem very accommodating or responsive to concerns. It may have been due to a high volume of guests, but it would have helped if concerns were acknowledged more promptly. The lobby was also quite warm, which made it uncomfortable not just for guests but also for the staff in corporate attire. The surroundings can be a bit noisy since the location is close to busy areas. Overall, since this was our first time staying here for a nearby event, we appreciated the convenient location and affordability. However, the overall experience was around 6/10. I hope they can improve the room conditions and address maintenance issues moving forward. We also didn’t get the chance to take photos of the room for reference. I hope improvements can be made, as the place itself has a lot of potential and the location is really good.
