Shangri La Makati......Sofitel......Mariott Hotels Manila

[RickyR]

Nothing really comes close to the Shangri La, but the Penisular, Marriot and Ascott follow a close 2nd between them. I absolutely love the service, ambience and rooms in that place.

But in all honesty, there are so many good hotels in Manila for a much lower price. We've actually stayed at the Hyatt Hotel and Casino several times and that was fabulous at a much much lower price. There is also the Manila Hotel, which I'd love to try just for the experience and history in it.

But the reality is, what do you want out of a hotel? Somewhere to sleep for a few nights whilst you explore, or a retreat to escape from the city?

Hi,

Thanks for the reply and info. Yes the Peninsula is also nice, we have stayed their too. But no doubt the Shang has the edge.

Our main concern is safety then comfort and also a nice place to invite my wife's family and friends too for bonding in our room before and after City exploring.

We will be their for 10 nights.

We realise that other hotels are much cheaper, thats why I thought it would be an interesting post, as we dont want to waste money.....however, our priorities are as already stated.

I guess we will look at some of the other hotels during our vacation their this year.

Thanks for all replies and comments. We will look at the other hotels mentioned

Cheers
