The studios at the hotel are budget apartments but extremely well equipped with a kitchenette that includes cooking wares dining crockery and cutlery, a small dining area, a corner sofa, a TV with a great selection of English channels, free WiFi which is fast and always works for really well and comfortable beds. The rooms are old and a little tired in appearance but there is a certain charm that has me coming back again and again.

No in-room safe but everything else that you would expect. The staff is very helpful. For the location, this hotel cannot be better. TIP: Try to get a room higher up to avoid street noise.

The room I had was spacious with amazing views over Manila, the king-size bed was very comfortable and I found that I slept really well despite the heavy traffic noise. The mini bar was extremely expensive however there is the added bonus of a 7-eleven on the corner so you can get everything you might want there at a fraction of the price. Would highly recommend this hotel to anyone that is looking for cheap accommodation, in a prime location.

Guest Friendly policy reply by The Makati Palace Hotel: “Thank you for your interest in staying in our hotel. We are the friendliest hotel in Makati, that’s why we are allowing joiners to stay with the guest overnight without any charge except that we would be asking for valid identification and need to register for our guest safety.

Location: The New World Makati City is just next to Greenbelt in the Makati district in a very secure area where you can be sure not to get bothered. The hotel was perfect from the super comfortable beds to the softest of pillows and everything you could possibly need to be provided in the room. Great views over the business district from the room. The hotel also offers a great swimming pool and a number of bars and restaurants to choose from as the added extra spa services. The only disappointment was that there was no WiFi or internet connection and the bath was a little small to use if you are quite tall but this wasn’t really a worry. Lovely stay close to the action.

The Hyatt with the big casino is also just across the street if this is your thing. The hotel is not fancy and you won’t get Vegas-style opulence or a great array of amenities, however, if you are looking for a well-looked-after hotel with spacious rooms, excellent service from uniformed staff, and a safe environment then this is the right choice.
