Last week, my girls and I checked-in at the Manila Hotel. We opted to just stay in Manila because we dint wanna stress ourselves out. All we need is a new venue to relax without braving the traffic at all express ways.
Honestly, we were all dreaming of Sofitel but the moment we found out that the rates were a little bit out of the budget we wanted to look for another hotel that can be at par with Sofitel.
Voila! We found Manila Hotel.
The moment we stepped-out of the car, we felt like a part of Philippine history. Their was an air of hospitality and the chandeliers were humongous, you cant afford to miss it.
Aside from the payment we made through the credit card, the hotel asked ₱5,000 for the incidental damages. But you don't need to worry because they will be giving it back the moment you check out from the hotel as long as you did not destroy any stuff inside the hotel room. Our room costs ₱4,500 per night but because we stayed there for two days, we were able to get it for ₱8,000. The price was too right. Very practical.
The hotel stay includes a buffet breakfast at Cafe Ilang-Ilang. If you are breakfast person then you'll really enjoy it because they have the best pastries and cold cuts on the table to satisfy your gastronomic cravings. The technique then is not too eat dinner and just eat a lot in the morning to cut-off on dinner costs.
We checked-out from the hotel on Easter Sunday and went home with no fuss. It was a pretty convenient trip compared to last year and yet we were still able to do the things we wanted to do and the things that we needed to do too.
Over all? The experience at the Manila Hotel was splendid and the photos tell it all.
