If you’re unfamiliar with the general area, the way to the parking, the way from the parking to the hotel lobby, and to the main reception will be quite tricky. The underground parking is shared by 3 hotels. There were ample available slots when we arrived. But allocate some good amount of time because the journey to find and reach the correct elevator which is leading to the hotel lobby is a feat on its own. Hold on tightly to your ticket coin. It’s tiny and essentially hard to set apart from say toys of your kids. It’s just too risky to be used as a parking ticket. The entry to the lobby is similar to an airport machine checking. We were not lent a hand whatsoever. Prepare for a possibility to do this on your own. In our case, with a child in tow. The main hotel reception is still an elevator (or escalator) ride away. The deposit is PhP5000 per night. Could be made via credit card or cash. If you’re staying long, make sure you are very much prepared. Especially when there’s apprehension to use a credit card. The room was okay. It’s not perfect. The views are either pool or building (you will see the mall across). We were asked if we wanted a pool view room but no bathtub. We went for building view with bathtub. I requested for extra bath mats (for our action packed bathtub use with a child) I was told 3 is the max per request. I asked for water as well, I was informed that 4 bottles is the max. Prepare to hear a rather unhappy tone from the person on the other line. After about 20 mins I received 4 bottles of water, the max and two bath mats because I was told 2 is the max. The number just decreased. Again, this came with unpleasant facial expression, of course this time, in person. Prepare your heart. I’m an avid staycation person, this is something new and unexpected to me. On our first night, I woke up to a noise from a party, laughing, cheering and etc. The room walls are quite thin. You could easily hear conversations at the hallway. During our stay, it was generally quiet. Perhaps it’s not a busy season. Caution if your stay is in time to a peak period. The chairs and tables at the pool area has two rates: PhP1500 or 3000. Otherwise, complimentary ones are only those on the side (in this case you will share it with smokers. One part is the smoking area. Surprise!). By side, I mean very much unfavorable to parents who need to watch little children while using the pool. The pool is elevated and this area has completely no view of the pool. Prepare to stand or pay. The pool is heated. The food is of good quality. We thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast. The team there is just awesome! Jason, Kenneth and the other personnel were truly commendable. They are passionate, very professional and we are happy with their service. Am I coming back? Honestly for the price I paid versus the entire experience, I would choose Fairmont in Makati through and through. If in this area, I will opt for Sheraton.
