Guest Reviews
- Alvin (10/5): - As part of my layover in Manila, I chose this hotel, mainly based on price and location. I must say that City State Tower Hotel met the grade on both of these. Although it is somewhat dated, the hotel has very adequate facilities with a very helpful and friendly staff. There are many stores, restaurants and other places of interest very close by, including Robinson, which has a huge supermarket and department store. The room had a comfortable bed, a very good air conditioner and good sink and shower with warm water. There is even a water kettle for coffee or tea. So overall, very satisfied and I definitely would stay there again in the future.
- MAKOTO (8/5): - The food at the restaurant was delicious and the staff were very friendly. The room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable.
- victor (6/5): - The hotel overal was good the size of the room was big but it did have cockroaches. That being said thats kinda just how most places are in manila. The location is really what i enjoyed the most. Being able to walk to mostly every location with convenience was the best part
- Andres (10/5): Magnificent Hotel - Great experience
- Andres (10/5): Good service but a problem with the bathroom - Good place, but the bathroom had a problem with leaking water
- Thomas (2/5): - The included breakfast is very good. Concierge service to Puerto Galera is good, but very expensive. However; the bed was very hard and springs were hitting me all night, the shower didn't work (no hot water anyway), strict rule of two small bottles of water, very inconvenient placement of outlets and a 1,000 peso deposit even though there is no minibar (what did they think we would steal, the bed?) and the overall feel was very run down.
- Thomas (2/5): - The shower didn't work, the bed was not comfortable and only two bottles of water a strict rule.
- Thomas (6/5): - I like the location and the buffet breakfast. The bed was spring type and the springs kept poking me. Strict rule, only two bottles of water...
- Rosa Maria (2/5): - Room is terrible, dirty and old, services is not that great, they charge me for kids breakfast, they didnt tell me when i checked in, they know that i book for 2 adults and 1 kid.
- William (10/5): - Very clean
- Thomas (10/5): - Good free breakfast, elevator but bed was hard.
- Yvon (8/5): - Well located but the surrounding area is a bit shady.
- Gary (8/5): - Convenient and served the purpose.
- Richard A (10/5): A good stay - It was a good stay as always. The staff is on the mark everyday. Great service. Thanks to all.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Clean and nice - Well maintained, kinda, despite not so modern amenities. They excel in cleanliness. Some of the staff need a little more politeness. Those assigned in the dining area are very nice and friendly though.
- Robert (4/5): - No on site parking availability even though its on their property details. Was given the option of parking 3 or 4 blocks away in the Robinsons parking lot but I would have had to move it again because they don't have overnight parking. The other option was to do valet parking. I told the manager on duty that it was not acceptable and I wouldn't return as a customer. After some hesitation, he upgraded me to the valet parking lot which I appreciated.
- Kevin (6/5): - The place was clean and comfortable, although there were no hand towels or washcloths. The people at the front desk seemed too busy to pay attention to customers. The restaurant staff was very friendly and attentive.
- Jennifer (10/5): - The outside environment is not good and look unsafe. Smells really bad because of the homeless people around the area.
- Terence (8/5): - Beginning to look a little run down but the staff were friendly and the aircon worked. Handy for the onward travel to the port as the hotel was the pick up location.
- Mark (6/5): Mixed feelings - Alot of roaches and rats the size of my feet... but the costumer service was outstanding!!
- anthony (10/5): - noise from traffic was loud
- DEEPENDER (4/5): - Nice Property Great Service Excellent Staff Great Value for Money I came from AMERICA 🇺🇸 Ive travelled ALL Over the World 🌎 to 52 Countries .. Keeping All that in Mind It was Average HOTEL.. Worst thing is Rooms has NO Windows ..it Makes you feel claustrophobic The Staircase i saw real huge RATS Scrambling ariund and Eatibg Food Off yheLeftocer on Playes kept outside the Hotel Room
- Brian (10/5): - The booking in at the hotel could be improved with a modernisation to benefit both staff and customers
- Justin (2/5): - Worst hotel I have ever stayed at in my life. Avoid at all costs. It is not worth the price. If you like bland food, poor internet that drops your connection every 10 minutes, ancient air conditioners that need to be dusted, and non-smart TVs and weird odors that smell like your grandma's spice cupboard, then you are in for luck. I can understand a room being non-refundable but a business should at least be able to provide the basic amenities that they advertise.
- Alexander (8/5): - We were there to go to certain locations that were within walking distance and was very convenient for our purposes
- Elvie (10/5): - Staff are very helpful and respectful. Eater is free everyday. Breakfast is free as well.
- Brian (10/5): Great staff, great room! - Great location. Stayed here to take the Klook bus/ferry to Puerto Galera. Staff was great, room was clean with good air conditioning and hot shower. The breakfast buffet in the morning which we opted for in our room charges was delicious. Highly recommend the Citystate Tower Hotel.
- Robert J (8/5): City State Tower. - First room no windows. Asked for change, moved me to a room with windows. Wondering why I was not placed there the first time. Very nice and clean, 2 beds, warm shower. BREAKFAST needs improvements. Had to search for napkins and silverware, not on table. Scrambled eggs pan empty, sausages cold, limited items, no pancakes, ample salad items.
- Macoy (6/5): - Simple and clean
- David (10/5): - There was a misunderstanding over the bed types in the room. One call to the front desk resulted in us promptly being relocated to a more suitable arrangement. The staff is pleasant and helpful.
- Robert (8/5): - Wonderful and kind service. Good location if you need to be at the US Embassy.
- Edgie (6/5): - Staff are good but property is kinda old, need some fixing or renovation. Fridge not working
- Ebony (2/5): Dirty Rooms, Nasty Air Con & Moldy Refrigerators - Room with filthy furniture Holes in curtains Dirty walls Miscellaneous old and stained couches in the hallways Gross and nasty air conditioners in rooms Gross and unclean refrigerators with mold Wifi was inconsistent and intermittent
- DAVID (8/5): - Fine for what we wanted. A good transit hotel to Si-Kat. Room was fine. Staft was friendly. Breakfast was good.
- stephen (10/5): - All over the Philippines there are sneaky little 1-2 inch steps/ rises that completely catch you by surprise. Found it to be a nationwide issue, weird - so watch your step. Exiting your room's bathroom and even a few spots in the lobby no exception. Not enough fruit on the menu so I hunted my own and cut it up in my room, but I came to Asia to gorge on Papaya, mango, mangosteen, etc.
- Bryan (4/5): Poor - Hmmm didn’t expect the room is like a jail that there is no window.,room is old, need remodeling also the bathroom, closet and floor. I don’t think I’ll stay anymore and a ain’t recommended to stay there.
- Kevin (8/5): - This is about a 3 star property. Get a room in the back, because the ones in the front get a lot of street noise. The best thing about this place is they have a bus/ferry combo going to beach resort Puerta Galera. It leaves at 9:30 a.m.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Did OK considering the situation. Had additional charges we were not aware of which may change in future trips. Still OK.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Nice looking place with good service but traffic noise is bad and bed mattress too hard, gave me back pain.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Citystate Tower stay - Airconditioning unit was old so do expect that you will be sleeping with sweat esp. during summer nights. Towels were old. Luggages in the reception area were an eyesore. Half of the bldg. is also a casino. So, if you're a non smoker better find another hotel. In all fairness, the breakfast food was good although they don't serve hot chocolate in the buffet.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good breakfast very helpful and courteous staff. Rooms very dated aircon working but stuck on 1 setting. Still enjoyable stay
- Verified traveler (6/5): Not quite satisfied - Bedsheets are smelly
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Great location close to mall, food and entertainment. Accommodating nice smiling efficient staff. Free breakfast average. Facility aging but very clean and well maintained.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Property location good. Rooms are out dated and still had the dirty floor towel for use in the bathroom. No spare toilet roll provided and we ran out. Air con very noisy.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Breakfast is ok, not that much to choose from. On parking, they don't have parking space in the bldg but have parking arrangement few blocks from the hotel and you can avail of their valet but we have to look for where the car was parked afterwards as it was not in the location they indicated.
- David (8/5): Good value for money - Mediocre, dated hotel. It's cheap and definitely good value for the money, but when my stay in Manila got extended, we chose to move to another facility rather than extend here. Small rooms, tiny tv. Nice big shower, grey linens.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The property was in a good location. Clean rooms, friendly staff.
- Joseph Brian (6/5): Jan 20, 2020 overnight Stay - Parking was a pronlen from the very start, i.e., upon arrival. Manager was very accommodating, just like the ftont desk staffs. The manager accompanied me to the parking lot - at the cherry blossoms - since i misplaced my valet parking stub. When we got back to citystate, i took my other car key back. Later did i notice that the house key attached to it was already torn to half. Whew! Otherwise, the rest was good
- KimMoffitt (2/5): - Dirty hotel with tiny grotty rooms. Nothing like the picture shown by expedia. Breakfast was terrible. Dining room too small for the number of guests. Had to ask for a clean knife and fork or for a cup to get some coffee, no toaster. Chef tried to pan fry some bread for me whilst my eggs were going cold. Told him not to worry. Last time i use Expedia !
- Noel (10/5): vacay - amazing
- Verified traveler (10/5): Friendy service - Check in was a breeze and free parking is provided. Thank you very much for such a friendly service.
- Richard (8/5): Ok - OK
- Robyn (8/5): - It was only a one night stay because we wanted to rest up after a long drive to Bolinao. We’ve stayed here many times because the customer service is excellent. The bellhops and security really take care of us. We use to stay at 4-5 star hotels, but after staying at Citystate, we haven’t stayed anywhere else except Citystate,
- Leslie (10/5): Pretty good experience - Really nice place, a bit of random stuff in the corridors but nothing horrific. Overall really good value for money 👌
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Location is good has 7/11 stores, mall, restaurants, ATM's in walking distance
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Place has bugs and not clean. Close to everything though so very convenient.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Cleanliness Friendly staff
- Edward (8/5): Between Rizal Park and Robinson's Mall - Comfort at a fair price and a good location for my needs.
- AldophusBethune (10/5): - The location was good place to meet up with my and business partners. The customer services was also good.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Would have been nice to have a view. I don't think it was the same room as what is in the picture.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - its so central to everything i want to do the clubs an d bars ..transport is good
- William (10/5): Great hotel - My stay was great was able to get to embassy with no trouble motel was so helpful with everything
- IanWong (6/5): - Needs more ventilation. Some areas smell like smoke.
- Alain (4/5): Reserve in another hotel. This one is overestimate - May be it was because we had reserved on hotel.com, but we were housed in the smallest room of the floor, withour any window. In the corridor, the employees are very noisy at any timle of the day or night. At beakfast, the empoyees are not at all kind. I asked for hor milk and was answered: "sorry, we just have cold milk". There was no butter, we had to wait 10 munites and ask 2 different persons to get some of it. Compared with other hotels in Manilla, the price is too high for the service provided. Don't reserve in this hotel !
- Bruno (6/5): Poor customer service from front desk - The deal was pretty good so I decided to try it out. The front desk service is poor. The guy at the front Nikko is arrogant and condescending. The room was fine and so was the breakfast. If you want a better experience go to City Garden down the street - their customer service is excellent and so is their buffet.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - xoxoxoxox xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxo
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Clean easy access
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Staff was polite and building was well maintained. Traffic outside kept me awake most of the night along with loud music.
- William (8/5): Great location - Location was excellent for what I needed. The tour bus picked me up right in front
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Nothing was unique.. its a 3 star hotel i did'nt expect anything... ill try other hotels next time
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Near Supreme Court
- Anders (8/5): - Stayed there many times before, i like it
- Verified traveler (4/5): - his was my 3rd stay in this hotel coz i have no option due to its location. very convinient location coz robinsons and other restaurants are very near. but since last 4 yrs i have see no improvment in rooms. my aircon, shower and refrigerator were not working and also not good condition. 2nd day we have to change the room. other room also has same poor condition of electrical gadgets. hope the management will improve the condition of rooms and upgrade it.
- Geoffrey (8/5): All Good - Good Value Hotel
- Patrick (8/5): Good Hotel - Price was very reasonable. The location leaves much to be desired, but the service we got from its employees was nothing short of extraordinary.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great service and security. Staff very quick to help.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great customer support given by the entirr staff. Outstanding service .
- Eula (8/5): Good hotel - It wasn't bad for the price at all. It's very convenient for the purpose of our trip to go to st lukes. Food chains close to the area, so as Robinson's mall. Staff were friendly. You can tell that the hotel is a bit old but it's still in good shape.. I would stay there again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Solo traveller - I got a nice room. Better than most of the rooms I have had before.
- Amy (2/5): - I was very disappointed!!! Too noisy can't sleep at night at all. Often complaint to management but nothing has been done. Very poor.
- Rene (10/5): - Very clean room. Orderly arrangement of basic amenities they offer.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Suckered by the price - I have stayed at this hotel for years always booking direct. This time I booked with Hotel.com and found a reasonable price. Peso 2100 a night . A little on the high side because the City State Tower hotel is NOT worth P2100 a night. I'd say P1750 with breakfast would be a fair price So went down for breakfast. Breakfast was not included in the price. We checked our booking with Hotel.com and that was correct. So what's the problem you ask - read the fine print right !? Wrong. In 10 years stay at the hotel breakfast has always been included. City State Tower is offering a 'cheap deal' with Hotel.com designed to sucker in people with a lower rate hoping they won't notice. That happened to us and net effect was we were the only people not getting breakfast at this hotel. Will NEVER stay here again and making a point of telling all of our friends, their friends, facebook buddies not to stay here.
- Derrick (6/5): - Location close to mall a plus. Staff could not assist with Grab drivers.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice place to stay - Nice room, comfortable bed, clean but a little noisy due to outside traffic. Food at hotel café was very good, great selection. Not far from Robinson Mall about 5 min. walk.
- Fevilyn (6/5): - Im regular customer. This time im happy for the room..
- Mike (8/5): - Clean comfortable and safe. Near shopping, easy transportation. Walking distance to US Embassy
- Kyle (6/5): Service and Location - I have stayed here off and on for over 10 years. The room quality has risen with renovations but what kept me coming back was get service. It has been consistently good every time I have been a guest. The location is excellent, close to shopping, attractions and generally a short ride to the airport.
- Robert (10/5): Friendly hotel - Great check in and staff. Excellent choice of buffet breakfast. Central location.
- Mitchell (8/5): - Very nice hotel, great rooms helpful staff,good food nice service
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Room confort would be perfect if we could sleep at night. Loud music every day all week, beginning around 7h00 pm until morning.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Convenient - We needed to attend meetings at US Embassy and found this hotel. It's not quite what the pictures indicate, but totally fine. Only issue is that the queen bed is a NA double size, so if that's an issue, now you know.
- timothy (10/5): Good spot - Great location ...great hotel for the price
- Charles (8/5): - Everything was nice but the beds where way to hard they need to be softer
- david (6/5): Last minute break. - Dated hotel with very bad wifi. Friendly staff though.
- Karl (6/5): Quick overnighter - Average...nothing really new going on at this hotel. Starting to show its age.
- Kevin (8/5): Good Enough For Me - We checked in early and they upgraded us to a better room since a standard was unavailable. Ok with me. Asked for a quiet room and they put us in the back. The room was large, clean, and comfortable and everything worked fine, but the TV was small. The buffet breakfast was very good, and they have a good bus/ferry combination going to Puerta Galera every day.
- Tom (10/5): Great hotel - Great hotel. Excellent staff and service
- Verified traveler (4/5): Is ok - Shower was bad no water pressure n no safe in room only down stairs and real pane to go down there ty peter
- Roy (8/5): Emita - An other stay at City State being English we are creatures of habit and rooms are reasonable rate on hotel.com and location is good.for Robinson Ermita and Cowboy Grill. Maybe because I had just come from Cebu the traffic in Manila seemed easier and thanks to Grab a taxi no more arguments over the meter fare!
- Neil (6/5): Good location - When I checked in, went to room, which was overlooking street. I could hear the traffic noise then, and I thought if it is like this now, what is it like early hours of morning, so asked to change room, and only room I could switch to, had no window. Took it anyway. With shower, have to be a little careful, as water can easily get on floor near wash basin, but as long as careful, no problem.A very MINOR thing I thought strange, was that there were 4 sugars & creamers, but only 2 coffees. Went to reception to mention this, and they got manager, who gave me a few tea bags. The buffet breakfast was ok,
