This is where I stayed prior to my departure for another visit abroad. I brought along my sister and daughter-in-law with me and we booked in this hotel for three days. This is conveniently located, because it is just a few minutes walk away from eateries, convenience store, park, Catholic Church, etc...easy to get a taxi to go to places you like. The open interior is nice, we took several pictures there, and we were completely satisfied with the room accommodation, but the free breakfast is not satisfying, as if it is just rationed, does not compensate with the room rate. Even if I complain about the food, I still choose this hotel if I have another chance (stayed here three times already) because of its location and its friendly staff.

I had the loveliest time at Miramar Hotel! Stayed for two nights, just for an event in the adjacent Bay View Hotel hosted by the Philippine Commission on Women.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 more than the ~PHP1,500/night that I paid for. 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 (as you should, you have the TripAdvisor logo on the front desk!) 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.)

The location is terrific, very close to sm manila and intramuros. You can even walk to ridzal park. There is a 7-11 next to the corner and there were couple place for dinng around.But for a rate of 4200php per might? Come on...The rooms are old, depressing, especially with the red drapes in the day...i dont want to spend a sec in the room in the daytime.

Rooms are a good size with TV (lots of channels) and mini bar. Hot shower and plenty of wardrobe space and air con. Rooms are clean but quite sparse. Some road noise as windows are not well insulated. Best rates are available on the internet from the usual large companies. Very strange that they charge more for a room with twin beds than a double bed, no one was quite able to explain why. Location is fine, there is a mall 10 mins walk away, 2 starbucks next door, a pizza place and a 7 11 round the corner. Breakfast very basic and probably not worth the additional cost. Not a bad hotel and would stay again if needed a cheap clean base in Manila.

Stayed for a night for a business at the US embassy which is just across the hotel. Its also very accessible to key sites and destinations in Manila and just a 15 minute taxi ride to the airport. There's a homy atmosphere enhanced by its art deco design. The rooms are spacious and the complimentary breakfast was average. The staff are friendly but need more professional training. What was a great turn off was the loud blaring music coming from large speakers right in front of the front entrance that assaults guests passing the entrance. It's a cheap way of attracting customers and destroys the ambiance of the hotel. We complained about it but they just turned it down a little. Forget about the free three-hour crawling wifi.
