My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms in their new building, like the junior suite I stayed in, were very clean and neat. The space was nice and spacious, making my stay truly comfortable. The service was top-notch, especially the accommodating housekeeping staff. The hotel's location was just perfect for me, being next to Saint Luke's Extension clinic and close to Robinson Place and plenty of eateries. The dining experience was great, with very good food and a location so close to Luneta Rizal Park and the baywalk Dolomite beach. The facilities were impressive too.

The hotel had a basic room that served its purpose well and included all necessary amenities, but there were issues with noise from laundry services and waiting times at breakfast. The service was friendly and accommodating, offering various conveniences like room service and laundry. The location was great, near shopping areas and major streets in the Ermita district, but it was a bit noisy due to its surroundings. The dining experience was mixed, with delays in refills but delicious food options available. The facilities were sufficient for a comfortable stay.

My 16-day stay in the heart of Ermita district was quite a mixed experience. The rooms, though simple and of nice size, had all I needed but were unfortunately affected by smoke and chaos from the staff. On the positive side, the hotel's location was ideal for exploring Manila's major attractions, but being in the red district could be overwhelming at times.

I wish I had booked more than two nights at this hotel. The rooms, though not exactly as depicted in the pictures, exceeded our expectations; they were clean, modernized, and had a very nice ambiance. The service, from my niece's perspective, was commendable; the staff was friendly, courteous, accommodating, and always willing to help with a smile. The location suited my needs in most ways, despite the Manila traffic and pollution; it is conveniently situated at City Garden Suites, offering not just staycations but fun packages like day trips. The dining experience was delightful, especially with the outstanding buffet and early breakfast starting at 6 am. The facilities were top-notch, contributing to a pleasant stay overall.

The hotel is conveniently located near Rizal Park and Intramuros, with a generous breakfast buffet. The rooms are of good value for money, although a bit small. The service was friendly and helpful, especially during the MECQ period. The dining experience was heavy and nutritious, but some issues were noted with saltiness.
