E & T Homecation 2 Bedroom at Smdc Air Residences
5/51 Reviews
The room was very clean and consistent with the photo. The landlord is very welcoming and the location is very convenient.
Raffles Makati
4.7/558 Reviews
My family and I, including my 90-year old mother, stayed in a 2-bedroom suite at the 21st floor of the Raffles hotel for 3 nights at the beginning of the month. Despite coming in late in the evening, the hotel was fully staffed to welcome and assist us settle into our room with ease and comfort. Right off the bat, we felt safe staying in the hotel – from security screening of vehicles entering the facilities, canine-(bomb) check of guests’ luggage, to temperature monitoring of guests as biosafety checks for COVID-19. The lobby was awesome, and we’re equally awed by the spaciousness of the rooms, the high-end appliances and quality of toiletries provided. As we were all tired from a 17-hour flight from Washington, D.C., we all slept like a child under complete cover from city lights and noise. One of my sons wakes up early and orders room-serviced breakfast every morning, which a hotel server promptly brings up at 5:30 am in a well-presented table setting. Absolutely professional and exceptional service. The rest of the family ate breakfast at The Spectrum which offered a variety of breakfast cuisine – Indian, Filipino, American, Japanese including desserts and fruit juices. I specifically craved for their Arroz caldo, fried fish (danggit), longganisa and other Filipino delicacies. The rest of the day was spent shopping, as Raffles hotel is a walk-away from Glorietta and Greenbelt shopping stores. My wife and I often visited the gym and swam at the 4th floor pool, as the Raffles’ pool located in the 9th floor was under renovation (minor disappointment). All in all, from arrival to departure, the hotel staff provided exceptional service and our stay at Raffles hotel was nothing short of a very pleasant experience. Will I be coming back to stay in this hotel? Absolutely!
Fairmont Makati
4.4/585 Reviews
This hotel is in a good location, about 45 minutes from the international airport. 3 stayed for 3 nights. Right from arrival we were welcomed by helpful staff and had a speedy check-in. At the same time they gave us a room upgrade. The room was spacious, clean and very comfortable. The facilities were excellent. Again the staff were very hospital and nothing was trouble for them. We even liked the long bar with live band. We will be back to Manila soon and will not think of staying in any other hotel except The Fairmount. We were escorted to our room and everything was explained in details by the concierge who also helped us book the Manila city your for the next day with a reliable agent.
The Peninsula Manila
4.6/5151 Reviews
Room was good. House keeping was very efficient. Wish we had room with higher floor since originally it was plan to be at 9th floor but since we checked in early only 7th floor room was available. Room was old school style. Was expecting more since is 5 star hotel. Overall I would give 3.5/5. I think there are better option out there!
Dusit Thani Manila

Our stay here was awesome! Check-in was fast and easy. We were accommodated right away. They even upgraded our room and gave us some deets how to avail discounts when dining to their restaurant. The food in breakfast buffet was delicious. They even have a Taho vendor walking around and serving taho. The hotel is just across the malls. The service was fast. Our request for an additional office chair was attended quickly. The staff were very nice and approachable. You will always feel welcome here! Will go back here!
Christine Suites at the Beacon Makati

Condo complex is not bad, there is a gym and a swimming pool but it is very cold as the sun doesn't hit all day. The kitchen apartment is a small studio, so have been seen a few cockroaches. Location is convenient near supermarket, restaurants.
