Hostels in Metro Manila, Philippines

The hotel is easy to locate due to it is accessible in the nearest MRT station which can be walk. A lot of restaurants can also bw found here.

This was one of the best hotel I stayed at in Manila. I had some hesitations about the shared toilet and bathroom, but they were quite clean by Philippine standards. The hotel even has a pool, so you can sit by the pool in the evening and meet other guests. However, our room didn't have a window and was a bit damp. The only downside of the hotel is that the surroundings aren't very safe. You need to be cautious around the hotel if you're a foreigner. Mall of Asia is only 10-minutes by Jeepney. The hotel is also close to the airport for those leaving the city.

The location is great, close to the airport – about a 10-minute taxi ride. The front desk was staffed even when I arrived late at night. The interior decor is very zen and the place is super clean. The A/C in the room was really cold! My only complaint is that the front desk charged an extra 90-something pesos for some unknown fee. But overall, it's still a really good hostel, one of the best I've stayed in. I'd definitely choose it again for an overnight layover in Manila.

4th time here and sadly the last night! I enjoyed my time around. Outside in the corner you'll find fresh fruits for pretty cheap price! Local restaurants for even 95 php the dish, 7eleven every few blocks and malls too. I'll try another hostel from The City Flats tomorrow 😊

bf kicked me out of the bnb and had to get a quick hotel for the rest of my stay in Manila! rooms were aight, you get what you pay for yk. its in a really good area i think, it wasnt a hassle for me to get anywhere, its walking distance to poblacion so that was fun. the staff was really nice and accommodating and not rude at all, which was refreshing. i was gonna go and party my last night but took a nap in their bed and woke up at 4 am…… I COULDNT PARTY 🥲 aight hotel for a solo traveler that got kicked out of the airbnb, and if youre tryna cut costs , and actually spend time out of the hotel and walk around AND THEY HAVE HOT WATER FOR SHOWERS dont have pics of the hotel but ill show my trip instead

A very good location in this ugly city. Though it was hard to find it. The room is small, service is good. The girls in the room were very friendly. I tried to use public buses nearby and failed, they didn't stop at the ”bus stop area”, wasted time. So only used metro

Mad Monkeys rarely disappoint & here's no exception, in the heart of Makatis Party district Poblacion, you'll find everything you need to have a blast. It's a very social space with a rooftop skybar/terrace & restaurant & ground floor cafe with outside patio. I stayed in a 4 bed dorm (305) which I have to admit is very cramped, the toilet doesn't flush well & the shower head holder is damaged. Also the mattresses still have the plastic covers on so they squeak like crazy, this could be resolved by placing plywood on the top bunks which would make a sound barrier. Other than that, great hostel, great staff, great service & you get a welcome drink when you check in. JOIN THE MADNESS 🤣

A unique old hotel where some rooms have a car garage. Fast and satisfying service. There is no elevator for rooms on the second floor. So those bringing large suitcases will be helped by the hotel staff. What I like about this hotel is its security, where there are security guards who always guard and supervise every guest. I especially admire the friendly and attentive female security guards. For the room, I said it was okay because it was quite spacious, clean, and comfortable. I didn't try the breakfast so I can't write a review for it. This hotel is close to a small jeepney terminal and a night market, there are also many restaurants and malls nearby. Just a 10-15 minute walk. When I checked in, I was asked for a 5,000 peso deposit (very large). Since I didn't have enough pesos because I was leaving Manila the next day, when I said I was giving a deposit in Ringgit, dollars, or yen, they allowed me not to give a room deposit. I also don't understand why the deposit was so large. When I gave Ringgit and asked for a receipt, the officer at that time didn't give it and returned my Ringgit. It was very suspicious not to want to provide proof of receipt.

The location was nice, it is nearby to the closest LRT station, you just have to walk for a little. If it is not such a hassle, choose this hostel. When we first came in, the room smelled nice. Even though there is only one fan in the room, the room is still comfortable to stay in, it is not hot. Also, if you’ll be staying for a night this is the perfect place to stay in because they only provide beds for you to sleep in, but if you’d like to have more stuff that you can actually use while you’re at your stay, that has more amenities, this is not for you. Lastly, I actually commend the shared bathroom. It is clean and has a bidet and also a toiletry that you can use. All in all, our stay is good. This is also our first time to check-in, so, not bad for the first time. Also, it is a budget-friendly place to stay in. Keep it up!

It's beautiful, clean, and affordable with plenty of food options nearby, plus there's a coffee shop right next door. Super accessible! The staff are incredibly kind. I loved that the air conditioning was already on when I checked in, which was a huge plus! The bathroom is clean and spacious. Honestly, it deserves all the praise. But, if you plan to use the locker, please bring your own lock as it's not provided. That's all, thank you so much!
