I stayed here for 2 nights to attend my re-certification training in Manila. I had a pleasant stay in this hotel. Conveniently located near Robinson's Place Manila so finding a bite to eat is really easy to suit any budget. The hotel staff are all very professional, polite and helpful. Easy check-in/check-out with standard floating deposit (in case you consume items in the mini bar/fridge) which you can refund when you leave. The room I got is quite spacious and clean. Bed linens are comfy and smelled fresh. The T&B is clean and well maintained with amenities. Complimentary plated breakfast is good enough with choice of American or Filipino meal etc. I really enjoyed my stay here and will book again if I have to stay in Manila. Good value for money.

1. Decent location for Ermita, esp to US embassy, if you need that, and the Robinson mall. Some night clubs, casinos, etc., are there, if you like that. But, far from airport in terms of travel time, at certain times of the day. 2. Very clean and modernized rooms. But, VERY small too. (Most hotels in this area may look attractive in parts but have ancient rooms.) 3. Somewhat booked all the time. 4. Good price for Manila. 5. Security good. 6. Staff are very welcoming and professional. 7. Food of various kinds and qualities is close by. I will probably stay here or other Red Planets in Manila. It's just better value for the price.

My fiancee and I have stayed at several hotels in Manila. The Best Western Hotel La Corona was by far the best hotel we've stayed at for the cheapest price. Trust me, some of the hotels in Manila are very expensive and very dirty! In addition, finding a hotel with good air-conditioning is not something you can take for granted, as we've stayed at hotel's in Manila with Aircon's that barely work. The Best Western Hotel La Corona is only a 5 minute walk to the U.S. embassy, which is the primary reason we stayed there and the price was very reasonable compared to other hotels in Manila and in the surrounding area. The hotel was extremely clean, the aircon was super cold, the showers were awesome, the bed was huge and comfortable, the Wifi was great, and the buffet breakfast was awesome! We also enjoyed the food especially the Pancit Bihon! The desserts including the brownie w/ice cream, the banana split, and the sundaes were excellent too! In addition, it's only 3 minutes walk from St Lukes extension clinic and 7 minutes walk from Robinson's Mall. We have to go back to the embassy in a few weeks and we're definitely staying at The Best Western Hotel La Corona again!

I've stayed in a hotel in Manila five times, and this one is the best. Basically, for the price, it simply cannot be much better. The only weakness about this hotel is that it is not in the best area of Manila. But, I would gladly reiterate that this hotel happily surprised me! I believe it is much better than even the photos reveal. To be specific, the rooms are outstanding; beautiful design, large beds, super clean linens, and nice wood furniture, refrigerators in standard rooms, nice bathrooms, and nice plasma wall set TV. Remotes controls work perfectly, and the housekeeping is very responsive. Extra towels are no charge and rooms come with nuts and drinks in the fridge, for example, beer and Gatorade; water is complimentary if you request bottles. Staff is at the front desk and completely attentive 24 hours, including doorman to get you a taxi or open doors for you. The pool is beautiful, and nice temp. Beautiful little waterfall. But the biggest surprise is the food!! This hotel has one of the best restaurants in Manila, in my opinion. The executive chef is from Switzerland, his name Chris. The restaurant serves same quality breakfast, as I had Eggs Benedict that was excellent, though it is not free; and same quality lunch, with smaller menu selection. But, if you like rich, delicious Italian food, which is not at the highest prices in the city, then stay at this hotel. I plan to almost always stay at this hotel, when in Manila, unless its all booked. Why? Because the prices are so reasonable, the staff is young, but very hardworking, and unlike most hotels in Manila, it has a pool. Last but not always least, the food is actually some of the best you might ever have.

I stayed at Casa Bocobo when I went to Manila for medical examination at St. Luke's Extension Clinic. With the help of the map I studied before the trip, I was able to give directions to the taxi driver (and avoided appearing ignorant about Manila which most taxi drivers would take advantage of) and easily got there. Check-in was hassle-free. The hotel has no elevator but male staff are on hand to assist...I didn't need much assistance anyway as I was carrying just one backpack. I was given a room at the farthest end of the second floor where I can look out my window right down to TM Kalaw. That was a fun thing to do every morning when I wake up. I would pull up the blinds and watch all the vehicles carrying students and people going to work. At night, there was much less traffic so noise was not a problem for me. About the room, it was very clean and spacious with a good-sized flat screen tv. The bed was very comfortable with clean a sheet and a comforter. Aircon didn't make a lot of noise. The cabinet was spacious with about five hangers. There was also a table and a couple chairs aside from the bedside table. It was so much more than I expected. I had to extend my stay for a few more days and ended up staying for a total of 8 days and in that span of time was able to try out 4 different rooms. I was given a different room everytime I extended my stay since the room I was in always had someone else checking in the next day. It was a bit of a hassle but not the hotel's fault since my stay was indefinite. I tried the double deluxe room with the queen bed, the room with the twin beds, the petite room, and the loft (my favorite! but it's usually for about P4,500 and was given to me only because they had nothing else available and maybe because i'm a loyal customer). All the rooms I tried are very much worth the money. I have tried Manila Pavilion and Gran Prix Manila but they can't beat Casa Bocobo. I am definitely staying there again!

the hotel is strategically located in the busy city of manila. if you want value for your money with just the right room amenities then this hotel will be up for it. what i like about my room was that it was clean, the toilet and baths have hot and cold shower too. the best thing about this hotel is that they provide free wifi access which helps me check my facebook, news, and reservations/bookings that i have made online. i can confidently recommend this hotel to my friends, families, and basically to everyone.

Pros -the room is big -comfy bed -free welcome drinks -friendly staff -old stuff from the old generation which is i find it cool -Php 350 unlimited Margarita (promo) -i love the smell of their shampoo, conditioner, liquid soap and lotion -location is located in Kalaw -accessible by public transportation -accessible to 711 and other fast food chains -walking distance to Luneta Park -near to Manila Ocean Park -one ride going to Manila City Hall and SM Manila, about 5 minutes without traffic -walking distance to National Library Cons -expensive for a walk in guests, hope they can lower the price because they only have limited facilities -you can hear the sounds of the vehicles because it is located kn the main road -1 round only for complimentary bottled water -the breakfast can be plated or buffet depends on the number of guests -limited parking -for wedding pictorial even you are staying in the hotel and even you have booked many rooms (we booked 4 rooms), they have fees for pictorial except those in the common area. -limited parking, first come first serve and open parking

I booked for a 6 day stay initially. I was so happy with the hotel I ended up staying an extra week. The room had everything I needed. Fridge, stove/oven, very comfortable bed, on 14th floor so no street noise, A big window that I could open and smell the sea and what a great view down past Makati, to MOA and back towards the city of Manila. My aircon was cold and quiet the shower was HOT water with good flow. Rooms were cleaned daily with fresh towels and bed linen done and floor was swept and rubbish removed. The staff here are so good, I tipped them all which is rare for me! Overall the hotel is older and does need some freshening up, but the foyer is immaculate and the elevators are fast and modern. The hotel has a cafe and bar/restaurant,,,, I didn't use as I had my own cooking, bur from outside it was very new, clean and glitzy and they had plenty of customers so that is always a good guide. I was so happy that after I went and did my business in Laguna I cam back for another week. I won't be staying in any other hotel now, this is my home away from home now. I paid only $41AU a night, no deposit asked for and it was terrific value. Apart from looks I would rate this a 3 to 4 star place, it just lacks the La De Da for 5 stars. Places close by are Robinsons Mall 5mins (walk), Moa 10 mins by taxi about 100php, Ocean Park 10 mins, casino 5mins, 100's of restaurants around, and Manila Bay Walk is across Roxas Boulevard via a pedestrian bridge. L.A bar in one block away if you want to watch the footy or have a dance, just dodge the bar girls and you will be right.. they are friendly and won't annoy you if they understand you just there for a drink. Touts and beggars are everywhere in Malate, you get used to saying "no peso" it is a few pickpockets that you need to watch for, and they are children about 11yo...okay!!! Anyways hope this review helps you and enjoy your stay in Manila. C ya!

I stayed here with my husband for 5 nights. (Sept 9-14, 2018) and it was a great stay. This hotel has a good location to Saint lukes medical clinic and US Embassy Manila where we had my medical and interview. The staffs are polite and accommodating. The food was tasty and the room is clean and the linens smell good. The only thing that I don’t like it is when we first enter the hotel I badly smells the strong odor of the hotel maybe because of the articrafts and souvenirs that they are selling inside the hotel other than that our whole stay was amazing. I will surely come back.

Location was very ideal for people wanting to go see the sights and sounds or Manila. Also walking distance to US embassy, St. Luke’s extension Clinic, Robinson’s Place, Manila Bay, etc. Clean rooms, very spacious (value for money right there), welcoming and helpful staff. Only downside was, from the room I stayed in, you can hear the party party outside from dusk til dawn. But I still slept through it thank goodness. But all in all, very nice experience. Didn’t wanna leave:)

Popped up from sunny Subic Bay where I live to have 3 nights in Manila. City Garden Suites gave good rooms, decent wifi and good service. Breakfast buffet was ok, not amazing but did the job. Ermita is a bit of a dive, but this all adds to the fun. Handy if coming from Subic or Angeles City as the Southern Cross Shuttle ends it journey in the next block across Del Pilar Street and is 3 minutes walk away. Good location for access to Robinsons, just 5 minutes or so walk away. Staff were polite, professional and friendly. Highly recommended!

Very clean and modern hotel. I stayed at this hotel because it had a 24 hour reception which I required as my flight into Manila arrived at 2 am. I could not find anything to fault at this hotel considering the price. The location is a short walk to Manila Bay, not that I saw much to view there. Also very close to the massive Robinson’s Place mall if you’re into shopping. The staff allowed me to check out at 12pm, and also stored my baggage for an additional hour as I had some time to kill before continuing my travels.

Second stay at this this hotel. This time I booked a room that supposedly isn’t windowless but what I still got was a windowless room on the fourth floor. The internet at that time was acting up but when it was reported to their staff, they immediately fixed it. Location is within walking distance to Manila Embassy and to Robinsons Manila. There are a lot of 24-hour convenience stores and fast food stores located nearby which is great. There is also an internet shop next door which is convenient as I needed some documents printed. The staff were accommodating. Overall, it’s a nice and cheap place to stay in if you have your embassy interview or your medical in St. Luke’s.

I have stayed at the Soriente hotel many times over many years. It is always pleasant and the friendly staff are a delight. The building itself is showing the effects of time and it can be difficult to locate even for taxi drivers who consider it 'An old hotel',only used by those in the know. Don't expect fantastic views from the rooms, many have windows looking directly on to blank walls! The lighting is a little dim in some of the rooms but that is a minor thing. My main criticism is that there is no longer a restaurant and the surrounding area is not the best. I have however always had a good and safe stay at the hotel and recommend it, especially for those who require a short stay whilst passing through Manila or attending short conferences, etc.

The main reason my wife and I stayed at this hotel was because it it very close to the US Embassy. Its about an 8 minute walk to the Embassy and to St. Luke's Extension Clinic. The rooms in this hotel are small, and you can easily hear people walking around the hallways, but the cleanliness makes up for these shortcomings. Most hotels at this price are not clean but Hotel Juliano is clean and the shower is hot. If you want a small clean hotel for a cheap price then this is a great choice. If you want to sleep in luxury while spending your time in Manila then this is not your best option.

the hotel is centrally located in the heart of manila, which is a busy and bustling city. all rooms have aircon and supply a good supply of toletries for the visitor, includng a toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo and soap, instead of the all too common bottle of liquid soap found fairly frequently in hotels nowadays, the reception desk is very busy but extremely helpful. i have stayed several times, the hotel has doormmen which exclude unwanted hangers on from the street, all in all a good hotel and i will use again.

Manila is a very daunting city and it is good to book in to The Swagman for at least the first night. I was glad to avoid the the taxi bandits outside because I was picked up at the airport be a very attractive lady and led to the airconditioned courtesy bus. They were waiting even though my flight was late The rooms were ok for the price and suited me and my limited budget. The satf all spoke english and there is a large menus in the cosy pub like atmosphere of the restuarant. The food was distinctly Australian /English but it also had a lot of Filliapina dishes too. The food was good and cheap too. The next morning I was off to my next destination of Angeles in their courtesy and delivered to my hotel door there. Excellant.

I had the loveliest time at Miramar Hotel! Stayed for two nights, just for an event in the adjacent Hotel. Miramar is quite beautiful, a true art deco place. Carpeted stairs, ornate decor, and an airy open interior. I was given a corner room on the 4th floor. (I booked the most basic one, so if that's it then wow, and if I was upgraded, then awesome!) I had SO MUCH SPACE and I loved it. The room was worth so much. The bed was comfy, and the bathroom spotlessly clean. Seriously, spotlessly clean. There was no hint of mold. It's true that there's a bit of karaoke noise from downstairs but it wasn't too bad, and during my stay the singing usually stopped around half past midnight anyway. People who sleep late, like myself, would have no issues. I also tried their breakfast, which I didn't purchase with the room. Generous servings, and very fast service! I had ordered in advance, expecting the normal hotel wait for room service, but lo and behold barely ten minutes later, here was my food. No free wifi in the room, but you can grab a card worth PHP 100 for three hours from the front desk. Expensive, but a much better bargain than Microtel's PHP 100 for one hour! And the net is fast so it's worth it. Or you could go to the lobby where it's free. Best part of the hotel: the staff. Particularly manong guard at the front. If hotel management is reading this please do say thank you to manong guard for making my stay a very pleasant one! All in all, I'll be staying at this hotel again when the need to be in Manila arises. (Lastly, Emerald Garden is a two minute walk away in the direction of Starbucks! Go there for the best siopao in the Philippines! Ah, and yes, there's a Chowking, a Starbucks open until 1am, and a 24-hour 7-11 right beside the hotel.)

friendly staff with a smie, fast check-in procedure. Clean rooms , newly renovated hotel. Just infront of SM Manila department store, near LRT train station. I need to process some important documents at Manila city hall and it's very near from the hotel which is very helpful to me. My grand daughter will have to take entrance examination in one of the universities nearby. Very accessible to all transportation.

We booked a family room, and because we were 6, m hotel add another room for free for 2 nights.. Thanks so much we enjoyed the comfortable and soft bed.. US embassy is just so near for 2 minutes walk, ermita shrine, jolibee and mang inasal are just steps away. We spent the whole afternoon at manila ocean park, and passed at jose rizals monument..all are in walking distance..

I would recommend this hotel because of it's location from the Manila airport. It has an upper floor w/a pool which is small but a very nice one. And I also liked the inside area w/benches and plants, a place to go relax and be inside with a very nice atmosphere. And away from the sunshine for a bit. The price was good I think for what you get. I paid $42.USD per night for 2 nights. I think it was a good price for the comfort! And the smiles I got when I checked in. Garden Plaza, I will return in 2008!! Thanks
