Guest Reviews
- Juanito (3/5): - Location Aircon not cooling.
- Rowena (8/5): - The big area is very spacious The lobby waiting area
- Rowena (2/5): - The unit is nice and clean and has a nice view and a big space. The receptionist Jam is not friendly , but the name hazel is very accommodating. We booked 4 units for 3 days all units are ok nice The Lobby is not attractive unlike the other hotel , they must replace the sofa in the lobby, it looks like an air BNB type only. The main entrance is like a commercial agency. They must improve the lobby too small for the waiting area. We waited 2pm to 4pm for the room key.
- Lorne (7/5): -
- Daniel (10/5): Always my first place to stay returning to the Philippines - Close to good restaurants and Robinson mall. The staff is professional at all times. This is what keeps me coming back as their charm and pride in their work stands out to me. I wanted to pay in cash when I arrived knowing rooms were available but was told the higher end rooms were only available so I placed a reservation online and then the room I wanted became available. It was uncomfortable for the concierge and myself moving forward with the request but they still kept professional.
- Krystof (7/5): Good -
- Elan (8/5): Very good - I love that the room I had which was EX06 had a smart tv! I was able to watch netflix in my room. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. It's not that I don't like it but I just have a suggestion. There was an empty space beside my bed to the window. It would have been beautiful if there was a couch there to sit and chill when you get bored of laying in bed. (See uploaded pictures for reference) Overall, my stay was great and will keep coming back.
- Rey (7/5): Good -
- Lambert (7/5): Good -
- Dundas (5/5): Passable -
- Cecilio (1/5): Dirty Room - The staffs are nice and helpful. The room is really dirty. A lot of molds on the wall and bathroom. You can smell the molds when you go in. The aircon is super dirty and leaking. Behind the toilet when you flush, it's always leaking.
- Adrian (9/5): Superb - Very comfortable Takes ages to get up in the lift but I guess there is nothing that can be done about it
- Adrian (9/5): IT was nice overall - Friendly staff and nice rooms Takes ages to get upstairs
- James (10/5): - Great property, safe and easy access to the airport

- Hendrik (7/5): Good -
- Niel** (10/5): Exceptional -
- James (10/5): - Great place to stay In Manila, I’ve visited and stayed at this hotel/location 3x’s this year already! Very convenient to shopping, safe and secure, within walking distance to nightclubs and restaurants, very helpful staff and 24/7 security guards that has a sense of humor that makes you feel safe and relaxed staying there. Overall this is a great place!!!!!

- Daniel (8/5): Great value, close to restaurants and stores, would stay here again! - The bed was nice, the space in the room was perfect, coffee shop and salon located in the lobby including travel and massage. Very quiet so you did not have to hear nightlife noise. The bidet nozzle had mold on it, no fridge, the room service was not very good but the front desk more than made up for it. Biggest thing was the bathroom not being clean because of the mold on the bidet and some parts of the tiles. Recommend Coca Cola and baking soda to remove the mold.
- Ovidiu (8/5): Very good - Close to Robinson mall, big and clean room, good food in room service, staff always friendly.
- Mahmoud (1/5): Difently, I will never consider this hotel!! - Just because is close to Robinson Place!! I don’t recommend this property for all travelers. It’s situated in an area where during rain all have to swim, no way can anyone walk. Nothing is closed to it such as Grocery stores: like 7-eleven. Nor restaurants for international. All local foods only. Trust me when raining u can’t walk even one meter. Plus the hotel would ask you to deposit 2000p even ur paid the room rate. Very hard to convince reception staff to wave that deposit. Truly, nothing worth to mention about this poor management staff.
- Rahim (10/5): No Hussle Booking we experience, and the staffs are so accomodating🤗❤ - Hospitality of the staffs are Amazing🥰
- Yuko (8/5): Very good - Kind staff, clean room No fridge
- Rajasekhar (9/5): Superb -
- Hua (8/5): Very good - Nice room server. Comfortable bed. The bathroom door is broken.
- Li (8/5): Good with the environments but the flooded and wifi issue should be fixed - Location is okay if not with heavy rains. If with rains then might be stuck in the hotel cause flooded. You might see mouses swimming. Need stronger wifi singnal.
- Cheryl (10/5): Exceptional - The staff were so friendly & accomodating. The area was easilly get flooded if theres a heavy rain.
- Angelo (10/5): Exceptional - Friendly staff
- Rajasekhar (9/5): Superb -
- Jd (6/5): Pleasant - The lights and aircon
- Tan (5/5): Passable -
- Pierre (6/5): Pleasant - The hotel proximity to restaurants, shopping malls. They do whatever they can not to avoid cleaning the room and thus save on toilet paper, free instant coffee and free water bottles. I managed to get them t clean my room once in my 5 day stay and I had to lean on them to get it done. And It's horribly expensive considering. Much better deals around.
- Wendy (7/5): Good -
- Alexandr (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tan (8/5): Very good -
- Nielan22 (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marvin (8/5): Pleasent stay and I will book again - Very Very helpful staff Bathtub in my room would have been a plus
- Lucy (8/5): Very good - The staff was very nice ! The location was conveninent, the staff was nice and it felt safe inside the building. I saw a cockroach in my room and the neighborhood feels not super safe (even though it's convenient)
- Karla (9/5): Superb -
- Flore (7/5): Good - Nice staff and security The hotel is really basic, but quite okay if you just spend one night over
- Shahram (8/5): Very good -
- Angelo (9/5): Superb - Lovely Professional and friendly concierge and security. Clean room, good towels. No big deal but Wifi strength problems Expensive laundry service
- Li (8/5): Very good -
- Martin (2/5): Warning....this hotel has a scam going in regard to security deposits, and front Lobby staff benefit - Warning! Warning! The front lobby staff collects security deposits in cash. They work hard manufacturing ways to keep that security deposit. A wet towel or some other minor issue results in damage claims equal to the security deposit.
- Irina (2/5): Very poor - 10 cockroaches met us in the room. Old and dirty room
- Rajasekhar (9/5): Superb -
- Shota (2/5): Very poor -
- Cleophas (8/5): Very good - The stuff was amaizing and very helpful and friendly!!! The room was big and nice !and view over the city from the roof top The elevator in the building was 7th slow and often very busy
- Anonymous (8/5): perfect vacation for the money! - the staff are very helpful, hospitable, friendly & reliable. the hotel hallways needs a sprucing up. maybe changing the wall color. needs more live plants & fresh flower arrangements.the 7th floor where we ate needs more natural lighting. Aside from that the foods are very good & Ding make as feel we’re at home.
- Nathalie (10/5): Good value for money. Wonderful stay! - Staff were nice. Room was clean and spacious. Very accessible to all major grocery stores and malls. The shower/ tub could have been bigger.
- Joel (5/5): Passable -
- Anonymous (10/5): a very pleasant, comfortable stay. - the front desk staff are very accommodating, polite & very helpful. the facilities are spotless
- Christopher (9/5): Superb -
- RICHARD (4/5): - CREDIT CARD MACHINE INOP HAD TO PAY CASH I DIDN'T WANT TO USE FOR HOTEL AND THE CONSTRUCTION ON THE STREET WAS NOISY ALL NIGHT
- Hiyasmin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hiyasmin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Donna (6/5): Pleasant -
- Kendy (8/5): Very good -
- Viktorija (7/5): Don’t have very high expectations and you will be fine - The staff is very polite and helpful. Very pleasant in communication. Good location. Couple of blocks away there is big shopping mall and some nice restaurants. The hotel is quite young (opened June 2019) but facilities are badly maintained. In my room the shower was not working properly, under the sink water was leaking and the door in the shower was broken. Windows are blocked so you won’t be able to open them to have fresh air (if it is possible to get fresh air in very polluted Manila). I stayed for 2 nights and my room was not cleaned at all. As a result I had lack of toilet paper and no fresh towels. Also, bear in mind, if you order food into your room (there is no dining room in this hotel, you will eat in your room) you will need to pay instantly. Make sure you have exact money as in my case they couldn’t find money for change to give me. Another important information what is missing in the description of the hotel is that they take 2,000 pesos as a deposit which they give back to you on check-out. In case you would like to check-in earlier (in my case I arrived at 10 am) they will charge you additional 30% of a daily rate.
- Gary (9/5): Superb - I stayed here many times but the service still exceptional.. keep it up!
- Oliver (8/5): Very good -
- Nick (1/5): I am so disappointed with this faculty that not only I will never go back there again I think I will - Extra charge of 500 pesos very poor room Crockbdtaff force you to pay extra
- Zoë (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rajasekhar (9/5): overall good hotel with good staff and security - Nice location and easy access for anywhere in the city The Airconditioning should be improved and towels to be improved
- António (1/5): Bad - we had to change room 2 times because of huge cockroaches in our first two rooms! the staff was helpful but it was absolutely disgusting.
- Nora (5/5): Too expensive not a preferred accomodation compared to places that are located in safer environment - bed - comfortable. Aircon Toilet is too small , no signage where /how hot water can be used. Location is far from restaurants or any food establishments. Pricey for an accomodation that asks for a 2,000 pesos holding fee prior to check in. Breakfast is not even included in price as well as parking - 150peso charged per vehicle/day
- Gigi (9/5): Superb -
- Grace (4/5): Disappointing - near Robinsons mall No ref, doesnt serve proper coffee. But I guess that is how it is with 2-3 star hotels
- Arriana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Μάνος (6/5): Pleasant - Very friendly staff and ready to solve the problems. Nice location, The room is not cleaned unless you ask for it at least 2 times. Every day we had cockroaches in the room
- Andrew (8/5): Very good -
- Adams (9/5): Superb - Loction excellent service from staff and facilities as well as a nice cool welcoming drink Shower curtain not long en9ugh
- Sebastian (8/5): Very good - Super nice and helpful staff (especially ara and april). Nice location. Rooms are clean and nice too Showers are quite small!
- Mahmoud (4/5): I will never book again in property anymore. truly, I wonder how this hotel being rated as 8.2 in Booking. I guess, it - This property is just close to the Robinson Area. Nothing more!!! During heavy rain, u can be stocked in the hotel. Rain is being collected in front of the hotel where u can’t move. it becomes like a deep lake that u can’t see the road. and can’t even walk!! Poor Reception and staff unfortunately changed me twice for taxes and charges. they were not helpful at all with all do respect. it took me more than 2hrs talking to them to but without any luck. You may ask me if u want more info to provide I can mention Names!!!
- Jason (3/5): Poor - The hotel is fairly well kept and in a good location. Charged us 2800 peso (£42) for a single 'stained bedsheet' which is extortionate. Added to this, we almost missed our plane as they wasted so much time on checkout - at least 45 minutes . Very disappointed and would not stay again.
- Syed (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rademakers (5/5): Overall, I would only use this hotel again if they promised to clean my room every other day. - I liked location and initial quality of the room. 1. There was No room service for many days....and they only cleaned the room on request. Worse yet...because I was forced to use the same towel for 5 days....it eventually got stained and i was charged 500 pesos for replacement towel. I honestly was disappointed at daily room service.
- Andrew (7/5): Good -
- russ (8/5): - No wifi.
- Galarrita (8/5): Very good -
- Nazeera (10/5): comfortable - all nothing
- Randy (10/5): - Great place to stay!! Probably needs a little more variety in the food but overall. We would stay there again! Good job!
- Muhammad Ali (10/5): - It was great
- Manilyn (8/5): - Location excellent. Hotel made me beg for toilet paper though
- Sally (10/5): - Close to everything where I want to go and room is very clean. Wish the use of the indoor pool doesn't have an extra charge. It should be included with the room.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was a pleasant experience. The room was nice and clean.
- Ken (8/5): - Clean. Nice staffs. Location is hard for taxi drivers to find. It’s better to tell the driver to drop you off at Robinsons mall (in Malate) which is about 300m away then walk to the hotel.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good place to stay for the price. It's clean, check in was easy and AC was cold. I would stay again.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It has hit water and great ac. Super comfy bed and close walking distance to the bay and to the mall
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Convenient to robinson mall and others, very nice to stay.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Hot water didn’t come out and I had to get a cold shower. Apart from the bathroom, it was good.
