The Henry Hotel Manila

Wonderful ambiance, beautiful grounds, cool pool for swimming, and the best staff I have seen in Manila..

Staff at reception and in the restaurant could be more friendly and approachable. Many we encountered looked bored and uninterested.

This is our 2nd visit in the last year. We love this quaint hotel as it sits in its own small compound and is close to local shops, fresh bakeries and cantenes. The restaurant on site has great comfort foods. The staff is welcoming and always ready to serve your needs. The rooms are spacious and clean. It's easy to get transportation and is about 20 minutes from the airport. We will continue to Visit the Henry when in Manila!

This hotel looks great but there are just a few key things missing
Check in is a laborious affair, seeming to take forever at all tones of the day. We checked out at 4.30am, and were kept waiting additional time whilst they “checked our room”, coming out to ask where cost hangers were... we had settled our bill the night before and were backpacking, we definitely didn’t have heavy wooden hangers in our backpacks!
Only 350ml of water complimentary per person per day - sub standard for the hotel class.
No hand towel or foot mat in the bathrooms
Also if toilet paper is not to be flushed due to plumbing, the bin NEEDS to have a lid for hygiene reasons!
Finally, the airport transfer is ridiculously overpriced - 1200 peso when regular fair is 200-250!
Unfortunate that these things held back from what is a beautiful hotel.
On a positive the bed was VERY comfy, but our king bed was two single mattresses put together, so not hugely romantic

Always a favorite place to stay when needing a close place to the airport.

This was my last night before I left the Philippines and I absolutely loved The Henry Hotel. Very comfy, elegantly luxurious and well positioned for anyone arriving or leaving the country.Would definitely go back!! Highly reommended!

It's the only nice looking vintage hotel in Manila

Spent one night here on our way to Cebu. We love the Henry Hotel. The location is set back one block from Roxas and on a safe, quiet lot. The on-site restaurant is very nice, good food and great value.

The hotel staff are professional and frindly however, there were couple of items were taken from our room during cleaning. I don't recommend to leave your items unlocked. Also, during the checkout, I noticed that they have double charged us for one meal. After contacting them they did however corrected the problem. The management tried to look into the issues but we were not satisfied

There is a certain charm here. A very worn facility with just the right repairs and updates. Nothing feels new and modern, while it really is where it counts. We stayed in the garden room which has a more modern vibe and a camper like layout. If you like privacy and personal space this room is better left for someone else. Its garden location is in the public garden, that said there we had no privacy issues and it was quiet. The toilet area is seperated from the bedroom with a sliding glass door, if you have performance anxiety not the best room choice. The outside shower is great, with flow, pattern and pressure that makes it difficult to remember the obligations of water conservation. The AC works flawlessly and sleep was bliss on amazing soft sheets and fluffy comforter. The bed itself is firm but comfortable and though i regularly sleep on an ultra soft bed this was good and probably a treat for my spine. Lastly the staff here has mastered the art of making the guests feel at home. Special thanks to the front desk and cleaning crew for making us comfortable for our unavoidable early arrival and for the security officers assistance in getting us a trike to the bank for cash and back.

I woke up with a lot of either bed bug or mosquito bites. I told the front desk and they told me to dial number 0 on the phone but why couldn’t they just send housekeeping from their reception lobby desk? Anyways, I called 0 but they never answered the phone. I even took pictures of my bites but the reception male employee never attempted to accommodate me or resolve the issue. I stayed there April 30th to May 1st. I checked in early on the 30th and got breakfast and ordered beef tapa with scrambled eggs, garlic rice, and house fries. The next day they gave me same meal with fruit and bread. This issue is merely about principle because the server stated he gave me the same exact meal yesterday but did not.

Other than the service, the pros were a working shower, fridge, comfortable bed (except waking up with bites), and walking distance to the Main Street. The cons were no gym, no elevator, lack of genuine service, no professionalism, and no friendliness of staff, lack of following up with guest requests, WiFi connection was not up to par, and the safe was not able to reset for usage.

This hotel is the best option for those who want to stay in Manila as a stopover, it is just 4 km away from the airport. an extraordinary stylish boutique hotel in its gated compound in Pasay neighborhood.comfortable and clean rooms with highly professional and friendly staff.

Staying at the Henry feels like I'm a guest at a private home back in the days of gracious old Manila. I needed a special mouthwash for a sore throat and they sent a staff to the pharmacy to get it for me. That is personalized service at its finest. Surrounding the property is like a botanical garden, with the smell of frangipani flowers wafting in the air. That old acacia tree shades the patio area and cools the air while enjoying an afternoon tea. There's no crowd and no casino and I haven't met an annoying guest. There is a camaraderie among guests when we are at the hotel restaurant because it's so intimate. I love the art deco tiles there. Even their gift shop is unique, nobody minding the store, just leave the payment in a box. This definitely is not a Las Vegas type posh hotel but I would not stay anywhere else. This is my home away from home.

Try the giant tiger prawns.Super cool place to stay in metro manila.Very quiet and peaceful,we will definitely be back .

Henry hotel is a leafy oasis in the busy noisy city of Manila. The garden is beautifully kept with the many lovely trees and plants which are lit up at night with fairy lights. The room we had was clean and spacious with a good comfortable bed. The food at the restaurant is tasty and good quality. Only 20 mins drive to the airport which is handy.

The hotel is an oasis in Manila. The ambiance is superb.

Nice place to stay great food and great service I would stay here again.

Would have given it a 5, but had to wait over 1hr 15min after my check-in time for the room. I arrived early. So decided to have lunch to wait for the room to be ready. Took my time eating.

Room was ready, but it wasn't the room I signed up for. So they had to prep the bigger room. (They said would take another 15 minutes) but took an extra 30 minutes on top. Hotel was nice, but I don't recommend for elderly people. It is an old structure built in the 40s. No Elevators. Had to escort my mom to see the pool/garden because the the driveway is rocks. Have to be careful. Also had to help them upstairs as there are no stairs. Also, not within reasonable walking distance to see things. (i.e. the mall). You'll need a taxi or grab to venture outside the property. Staff friendly. This is a secluded place you will want to stay at if you don't mind the price and just want to get out of feeling like you are in Manila. Place felt very safe. Properly looks very nice for pictures. Rooms have strong AC and nice big clean bathrooms. Would suggest wearing lots of mosquito lotion/spray if you plan on staying in the pool area. Lots of mosquitos outside there.

The beds and pillows were probably the most comfortable I stayed in during my 1 month in the Philippines. Between 6 hotels, & 4 islands, this definitely had one of the most comfortable beds/pillows. Was a nice place to stay and de-compress before my long flight home.

WiFi fast. Food is not cheap here.

It has become my favorite hotel for the past three years and after my 4th stay

Staff was very friendly and helpful! We loved our time there!
