Hi folks,

I am going to manila in Oct to meet my lovely girfriend.

I am finding it hard to choose a hotel as so many of the 3 or 4 star hotels have bad reviews. So in the interest of security etc I think I will go for a 5 star. Its only a 7 day stay, otherwise I could not afford 5 star LOL

My favorites are

Shangri La Hotel Manila Makita City
The Diamond Hotel
The Peninsula Hotel

All advise welcome & thanks :)

Shangri-La is fine but has ladies of the night in the bar - as if you can't find them anywhere else if that is your thing! Makati hotel much preferable to Edsa/Manila one.
Peninsula Makati is wrong side of the road.
Renaissance, Mandarin & IC are no more than OK as supposed 4/5*.

Personal preference is the Ascott. Huge, modern, well equipped suites. Private despite being on the Ayala centre. Nice pool and pleasant breakfast room.

Somerset Milllenium is nice and can be a bargain at the quality level.

Don't know The Diamond.

the only hotel we went back to more than once was the (was WESTIN) PHILIPPINE PLAZA , mainly because of the large grounds/ swimming pool etc, bay view ..

Hello everyone,

Thanks for the advise, very helpfull :)

The Shang is potentially the favorite but I dont think the cost includes breakfast!!!

So recommended hotels may now fair better ;)

Hello there, you can also try Sofitel Hotel (formerly known as Westin Philippine Plaza)......great hotel, in my experience :xxgrinning--00xx3:
food were superb, hotel staff were excellent and the view of the manila bay as well as the hotel garden from your room balcony is just splendid :xxgrinning--00xx3:
