An excellent experience!
Pros:

We loved everything about the hotel. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. Everyone was polite and professional as well. It is obvious that they take great pride in the hotel and their jobs there. And lastly, the breakfast buffet was so lovely! We will be staying here many more times!

Cons:

Nothing. I can’t find a single bad thing to say!

NAST 48th Annual Scientific Meeting: My First Solo Trip to Manila
Pros:

It was July of 2026 when I travelled to Manila for the first time solo. It was for the 48th Annual Scientific Meeting (48th ASM) of the National Academy of Science and Technology of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST-NAST). It was also the 50th Anniversary of NAST so it was a momentous experience for me as a scientific poster presenter and an undergraduate student all the way from Mindanao.

The walkability from this hotel was indeed walkable distance from the hotel that I'm staying for 3 nights; it was nearby Luneta Park as well so I got to enjoy the tourist destinations before I even went to the actual event. I also really enjoyed the accommodation there; the place is as luxurious as I expected (since I grew up poor, this was a once-in-a-lifetime experience), the food was exotic at best along with the exceptional service, and the rooms and hallways were so clean. And on top of all these things, the atmosphere here is ambient in way, clean, and as well as eye-catching, with not much noise coming from the outside.

Overall, for someone who enjoyed all of these with taxpayers' money through DOST-NAST, it was worth the value indeed. Thank you so much to the staff behind The Manila Hotel for making this first-time experience an experience worth remembering! To the people behind NAST, thank you for being part of my journey as a student and as an aspiring researcher!

Pros:

It's THE Manila Hotel! Stayed there overnight because we had a sorority ball at the hotel. It was convenient to check-in, also had hair and makeup done at the hotel salon. Still very classy and comfortable hotel.

Lieu d’exception
Pros:

Nous sommes transportés dans cet établissement et très bien situé.
C’est un buffet intercontinental pour le petit déjeuner qui est très varié. Le personnel est au petit soin

Cons:

Peut-être l’eau pas très chaude à la douche au 14e étage mais vu les températures extérieures c’était une bonne chose pour moi !
