Posts: 249I keep a close eye on those youtube videos. Gold Club is set up exactly like a girly bar. Curved couches looking at a stage. Doesn't seem at all like Hiso. I hope it's the new Hiso but I doubt it.

Posts: 3440I just saw on one of those generic Walking Street YouTubes that High Society has reopened as Gold night club. Hopefully it continues the same tradition of high end and sophisticated entertainment. 😜.

Posts: 812One bit of advice I would give anyone coming to the PH is this. Be respectful and follow all of the rules in place, regardless of how stupid they may seem to be adhere to what is asked of you. People here have missed out on a lot since Covid hit and every chance they see to take advantage of you they will. Don't develop an attitude because think you shouldn't have to follow a certain set of rules. You will be asked to fill out a contract tracing form pretty much everywhere you go with name, address, phone#, ect, you are required to wear a facemask at all times in public. Also you will have to have your temperature taken and show proof of vaccination to enter most establishments. That's just how things are now so if you have even a slight problem with this stay home. The cops would have no problem whatsoever of hauling you to the Barangay hall and / or extorting money from you. If you are anti-vaccination you definitely don't want to come here. To begin with you probably won't be able to board a flight but if you did get here without being vaxed there is very little you will be able to do.
There is still plenty of fun to be had but get used to having your temperature taken and filling out a form every time you go anywhere. If you go to 3 restaurants a day and 10 bars yes you will fill out 13 forms and have your temperature taken 13 times. Granted there are some places that are a little more relaxed than others but look for the cops to be on the prowl to fine any foreigner that thinks their rules do not apply. Some places will accept a photo of your vax cards. Easiest way is to make a copy of the original, have it laminated and carry it with you at all times. Probably a good idea to make a couple of spare copies also. Many things have changed. Lots of businesses did not survive. Some may return and some will not, leave your bad attitudes in your home country and come have fun. I sure there will be plenty of visitors that will learn the hard way.

Posts: 249Actually my plan in March or April is 3 weeks in PH. 2 weeks in AC, and then pick the girl I like the most and spend the next week with her in El Nido or some similar beach local. I haven't exactly worked this out but I think this would be ideal.

Posts: 249Yeah AC knows what's up. I usually stay a day or two in Makati and then a couple weeks in AC. That will be my plan going forward. I await some boots on the ground reporting.

Posts: 405Seems like everyone has the same idea.
My room at "The Penthouse" is booked pretty far out and they aren't promising me a room, they sent me a message see attached. It says subject to availability, isn't that what a prepaid reservation is for? I think I'm going to go ahead and book a few hotels just to be on the safe side. Agoda lets you cancel with no penalty, never had a problem with Agoda in that regard. I assume they are going to bump me if they start to raise rates and take the higher rate reservations instead of the discounted pandemic rates I locked in. Kind of a sleazy way of doing business on their part.

Posts: 249I feel like there's zero chance the hotels won't go back to operating like they did before. Imagine AC but you can't take a girl back to your hotel? They're trying to get their economy back, not kill it forever. I usually stay at Central Park. I checked hotels dot com and other than prices being a little more expensive than before, everything seemed normal. I also checked flights from LA to MNL in March. 2 flights a day, just like before, and around $1600 round trip. Perfectly reasonable.

Posts: 405Goto Girl friendly hotels closed for good?
Gentlemen anyone of you who will be there on Feb 10 onward (unfortunately I will not be able to get there until April ish) if you would be so kind to post, "post pandemic" girl friendly hotel information going forward that would be much appreciated.
Thanks Ghost the for sharing your insight into the alert systems I "HOPE" they will do away with that just as they have done away with the green yellow and red light system by the time tourists get back into the swing of things OR exempt vaccinated people from these tiers.
I think we will have to see a lot of policy changes from the prisons the hotels were running back to normal hotel operations in an "endemic" environment.
I've seen some walking tours by Overstayroad and Philly, Amsterdam seems to be open but Grand Central and walkabout seem to be closed closed? Overstayroad mentioned that all ABC properties said they do not allow non registered guests to join.
Can anyone one confirm that Grand Central is closed for good? It seems like my go to hotels are not available or closed up for good. Hell I can't even book a room as pacific breeze.
I was considering the Clarkton hotel as an alternative as they re did the rooms and I think the brass knob also re did their rooms I hope they are nothing like what they used to have on offer, the brass knob rooms used to be a nasty cum laden cells.

Posts: 405So I booked a flight and a hotel but.
Now that they are doing away with quarantine requirements that is all the green light I needed to at least book the flight and hotel.
I booked a the penthouse and I assume these restrictions will be revised by the time I get to the Philippines but this hotel wants 1 k deposit a night?
Has this become common place? WTF? Anyone know if they are they allowing bar fines into these hotels?
Is Grand Central Hotel on walking street closed for good I cannot also find a way to book a room at the Amsterdam either.
Here we go (MAYBE)!

Gad Dang, I guarantee walking street is going to be insane in 2 weeks. I think I'll go in late March. Let's hope all the talent from all the provinces get the memo and flock to AC.
