Tips for Booking Makati Hotels

Book Early for Peak Travel Months

Plan ahead if you’re visiting during Christmas, New Year, Holy Week (March–April), or major Philippine holidays. Makati’s top hotels—especially near Greenbelt, Ayala Avenue, and Poblacion—can fill up fast, and prices tend to surge.

Watch Out for Major Events

Makati hosts corporate conferences, expos, and international concerts at nearby venues like RCBC Plaza, Ayala Malls Circuit, and SMX Aura. Expect hotel rates to rise during business summits, long weekends, or major K-pop and sports events in the metro.

Save More with Trip.com Perks

New users can score up to 8% off select Makati hotel bookings on Trip.com. A handy way to offset the 12% VAT and service charge added to most stays—or upgrade to a suite with breakfast included.

Stay Smart with Location Choices

If you're on a tighter budget, skip the pricier Greenbelt area and look into hotels in Legazpi Village, Salcedo Village, or even the edge of Poblacion. These spots offer solid access to business hubs, restaurants, and nightlife—without the five-star price tag.
