Manila Hotels
Manila’s burgeoning proliferation of international-branded, high-end hotels reflects growing business travel demand rather than concessions to tourists – namely boutique charm or character offerings. However, this competition ensures abundant bargains are available at 5-star offerings particularly for those booking in advance on the internet. Budget offerings are mainly found around the Manila Bay area.
The Manila hotels below have been grouped into three pricing categories:
Luxury (over US$175)
Moderate (US$75 to US$175)
Cheap (up to US$75)
These Manila hotel prices are the starting prices for a standard double room and include taxes (VAT 12%) and breakfast unless otherwise specified.
This luxurious skyscraper hotel in Manila is justifiably popular because of its top-drawer location in Malate’s tourist quarter. It’s worth the extra splurge to access the top-floor, glass-surrounded Pacific Lounge – lovely in the evening for sipping cocktails and listening to the pianist. The Manila hotel also offers 24-hour butler service and Japanese, Chinese and international restaurants. Early-bird bookings on Pan Pacific’s website push prices down into the moderate bracket.
This 609-room behemoth is the go-to option for opulence. Its luxurious Bay of Manila-facing rooms command just about the finest views in the city. But it’s the facilities that set Sofitel apart. The palm-fringed swimming pool is a veritable tropical oasis while Le Spa wellness centre provides plush pampering. Best of all is the flagship Spiral Restaurant’s multi-Asian cuisine cooked fresh at open stations.

Penny pinchers and night owls will find succour in this budget hostel. Its 106 air-conditioned, en-suite rooms are boxy and cramped and almost have a capsule feel.
