Manila Hotels

Just to clarify, it was not the problem to register a guest at the entrance guard.

I have been asked to register any possible guest until 8 pm by WhatsApp, and with preference with attached ID.

That makes night hunting complicated.

Thanks the update. After 8 pm, in order to bring in your guest, you had to send the hotel a picture of her ID via WhatsApp? Or alternately, if you plan to bring in a guest after 8pm, you must register via WA before 8pm? And if you so register the girl this way, does this avoid the walk of shame (can she enter, show her ID to the guard, and proceed directly to your room)?

Never heard of that before.

Thanks the update. However, registering guests at the entrance guard (or front desk at some hotels) is considered 'guest friendly', is fairly typical, and protects you (somewhat) if she does something stupid in your hotel room. Non-guest friendly would be a complete rejection at the hotel of you non-registered girls.

Hello, I just want to alert that at Air Residences Condo, the entrance during the night is not really Guestfriendly. Sometimes, any guests must be announced during daytime with full name, name must be indicated in the list of visitors at the security!

I stayed low cost at Jupiter Suites, very close to P Burgos St, paying about 2 k online for a very big room, old but clean and everything working. No issues to bring even 2 guests.

Also good to know. Jupiter Suites is just steps away from The McDo on Jupiter St corner Makati Ave.

Hi,

Any knows if the Grand Hyatt in BGC is girl friendly? Stayed there before but with a GF. Outcall / Gogo girl needs to show ID at reception or can I take her from the lobby directly to the room?

Thanks.

Its GF, I've never had a problem. But I'm not aware of their official policy. All I know is that I just take the girl up and no one really seems to care.

Greetings, will be in Manila for a week towards the end of March. Staying in Publacion to be walking distance for mongering. It seems like both Coro and 1898 both fit the bill for our budget (60-70/ nt). Any strong preference in the group between the two? Will be a group of 4 guys in our mid 40's getting our own rooms. Rooftop bar would be nice but it's hard to tell if either have one. Any other strong recommendations within walking distance? Your experience is appreciated. Cheers!

Hi Benja,

The other guys have offered some really good advice for you in previous posts.

My flights back to Australia with PA always leave at midnight, so I always just pay and book an additional day at my hotel.

Whilst this may seem like a waste of money, it saves the hassle of moving to a short-stay for the afternoon, or worry about where you can leave your luggage until your flight.

And you can have a pretty wild time with your contacts leading up to that time you have to check out and head to the airport.

I've often thought it might be an idea to open a bar with short time rooms right by NAIA. Or at least a decent bar close by for departing travelers.

But I've got too much other business stuff going on at the moment.

Maybe ten years ago_Phil.

Yes, a bar with ST rooms and luggage storage will be the best business investment for somebody that's in the know.

Sometimes I go to SOGO hotels for by the hour rental, even if is not for fucking purposes, only to have some place to rest or keep the luggage if the flight is too far from the 12 pm checkout time, it's cheaper than paying for another day at the hotel where you're staying.

Hello. I arrive in Manila on the 18th for a quick layover before flying to the M. E. For work on the evening of the 19th. I was wondering if there are any hotels in Manila that offered free late checkout possibly after 8:00 pm That's not the Peninsula Hotel.

Don't know of any off hand, but you might want to consider some of the short stay hotels, and book an extra half day.

Good catch. Short time hotels Sogo, and also Lokal, are at either end of Burgos. Sogo is located a few steps from the Burgos / Makati Ave corner, and Lokal is just steps from the Burgos / Kalayaan corner. I think both places offer 3, 6, and 10-hour ST rates.

Also at the Kalayaan corner is The Clipper hotel. A hundred meters away towards Makati Ave is Coro hotel. You can always just book an extra night, or ask before reserving to book until 8 pm.

On the attached map, those hotels and several others in the area are marked with a red circle. Also circled are the Red Planet hotel and St. Giles. The blue arrows are where the gogo bars are located. If this is your first time, you can walk the entire length of the arrowed Burgos area, from Makati Ave to Calderon, in about 3-4 minutes. There are 15-20 gogo bars available.

Release the tension, and then tell us about the experience.

I have been top tier with a number of chains. The chance of a free 8 pm checkout is close to none. If you have status 4 pm is usually it without paying a half day rate. I usually book a really cheap hotel if you just want somewhere to stay.

You might want to contact hotels yourself. Booking dot com and Agoda both have a messaging system to contact the hotels or condo hosts. Expect 24 hours for the return message from the hotel. You can also get the hotel's number from their website and call them directly.

The reason to contact the hotel directly, as opposed to trusting what the gents say here, is that policies change over time, possibly since the last time another fella stayed in the hotel he recommends.

Any recommendations around Poblacion for about $50 a night for 4 nights? Other than St Giles. Was thinking about City garden grand but of course it is a bit over the budget. Is Red planet too basic or even girl friendly? Makati palace too old or Travelers inn? Not a fan of cockroaches. Royal bellagio too noisy? Or just increase the budget for a better one?

1898 hotel colonia en las Filipinas is a nice hotel. Very clean, guest friendly, pool / spa, and resto / bar. Normally priced about mid 40's a night on agoda. I'll be staying there Mid March, should be good times. Last time I was there I had multiple girls ordered in, and some I brought from Burgos without any issues, but they did make the ordered in girls sign in and called me down to meet them in the lobby. The security was cool, gave me a heads if a trouble maker or ladyboy was trying to talk to me on the street.
