Find3-Star Hotels in Manila

"I totally enjoy my stays at this property. Everything good and comforts at the max. I love the hospitality and room services given during my stay. I stayed for 4 nights. My room at 12th floor which given me an amazing vibes of Manila. Located at Chinatown and walking distance from most of historical building at Manila, this hotel could be the great choice for everyone. Thank you!"

"The location of this hotel is excellent, as it is directly in front of the mall. The staff are friendly and helpful. However, I encountered an issue with the bed; it was not comfortable, and the bedding was not clean, which made it difficult for me to sleep."

"Hotel 101 Manila – Guest Experience Review Date of Stay: August 3, 2025 Duration: 1 Night This was my first time staying at Hotel 101 Manila, and unfortunately, it wasn’t the kind of experience I hoped for. The night before my check-in, I sent an email politely requesting an early check-in, fully aware that it would depend on availability and front desk discretion. I arrived at the hotel around 10:00 AM and queued at the front desk. I was assisted by a male front desk officer. I provided my ID and mentioned that I had sent an early check-in request via email. He didn’t acknowledge the email and simply told me that standard check-in is at 2:00 PM, and there were no rooms available. What was disheartening was that while I was still at the counter, another guest beside me—who had just arrived—was given her room key and allowed to check in. It made me question the consistency and fairness in handling such requests. I didn’t want to make a scene, so I simply sat in the lobby, frustrated, thinking of where and how I could freshen up and iron my clothes before my 10:00 AM appointment. I approached another front desk officer (a female this time) to ask if early check-in would be possible if I were willing to pay. She checked and still said no. I also asked if I could use their iron and board, or perhaps request their housekeeping to press my clothes and will just pay .. something I know is possible in many hotels. But again, I was turned down. With no other choice, I left the hotel to attend to my day’s appointments feeling uncomfortable and unprepared. When I returned at around 4:00 PM to officially check in, things didn’t improve. After ironing and changing, we left again and only returned to our room past midnight—tired and ready to rest. However, the air-conditioning wasn’t working. No matter how I adjusted it, the room remained hot. I called for assistance and the engineering staff came. He checked the unit and said it was dirty and needed cleaning, but since we were only staying for a night, they couldn’t do anything immediately. He adjusted the temperature to 21°C and said it should be okay, assuring us that it wouldn’t shut off again in the middle of the night. Still worried, I called the operator to ask if there was any chance we could change rooms instead. She said she’d call back. While waiting, my companion and I discussed what to do—tired, hungry (our Wendy’s food was already getting cold), and dreading the hassle of packing up and transferring rooms at that hour. After not receiving a callback, I phoned again and said we would just stay in the same room and take the risk. It was a long, uncomfortable night. By 2:44 AM, we still couldn’t sleep. The room was hot, and the low temperature caused insects and mosquitoes to appear. I inspected the air-conditioning unit myself and was horrified to see visible dirt and mold buildup. We had no choice but to sleep in that environment, breathing in whatever was coming from that filthy AC. Upon checkout, I spoke with Sir Jason from customer service to raise all these concerns. He was polite and listened attentively. I appreciated that at least. But the truth is, this experience left me deeply disappointed. I didn’t feel welcomed or properly accommodated. Despite the hotel’s great location, I don’t think I would choose to stay here again. There are many other hotels nearby, and I would prefer to support a property that values fairness, cleanliness, and the comfort of their guests."

"Good service. The room is nice. I hope that slippers and toiletries such as shampoo and conditioner, toothbrush and toothpaste will also be added in the package. Overall, it's good 👍"

"We had a short stay here due to a layover in Manila, but for the price, we were satisfied with our time. The staff were all very kind and gave us a warm welcome. While the room felt a bit dated, it was fairly clean, and the amenities were well-provided. The elevators can get crowded during peak hours, which might feel inconvenient if you’re on a higher floor. It’s very convenient with large shopping malls like SM Aura and Market! Market! just a short walk away. Overall, it was a satisfying stay."

"Friendly and personal service The staff were all very friendly and helpful and no request for assistance was a problem for them. The hotel is well situated, being close to shopping, transport, and the tourist sites. We would definitely stay here again."

"HONEST REVIEW - A Very Satisfying First Hotel Experience Honestly, this hotel truly exceeded my expectations. I’ve read some reviews mentioning that the building is a bit old and could use some renovations, and I can agree with that to some extent. However, it’s definitely not to the point where I felt the building was unsafe or uncomfortable. One small suggestion for improvement would be to vacuum the hallways more often, as the carpets could use a little attention. As for the room, it was just as shown in the photos! I booked a Superior Room and a Standard Twin Room for my family. FOR THE STANDARD TWIN ROOM, my advice would be that if you’re just two people, it might be better to book a room with one large bed. Even though the room has two beds, only the double bed comes with blankets and pillows. I was really impressed with how responsive and helpful the staff was. I had an issue with the shower, and although I had to call twice, the engineer arrived quickly both times and fixed the problem without any delays. Now, the air conditioning – since the room is a bit older, it took a little time for the aircon to cool the room, but once it did, it was wonderfully cold, which made for a very comfortable stay. I’m so happy to give my experience a solid 9/10. The room was clean, the air conditioning was perfect once it kicked in, and the staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and quick to respond. Plus, the room smelled fresh and inviting, which was a nice touch. I’d also like to mention the security guards—they were not only kind and friendly, but also very informative and helpful throughout our stay. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were looking out for us. AS FOR THE SUPERIOR ROOM that I booked for my family, I have nothing but praise for it—10/10! It was spacious, the air conditioning was cold, and the room smelled great. We were all very happy with our stay. And just like their tagline suggests, their hotel is indeed accessible to all (LRT & MRT's a building away). I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a pleasant stay. I will definitely book here again if I visit Manila in the future."

"I booked this hotel for 2 nights. The location is very convenient if you wanna go shopping around, the room is spacious and clean. The amenities are also excellent. I highly recommend hotel for business and leisure travels because it is very convenient. Also, fast food restaurants are just nearby so it is not difficult to find food if you feel hungry in the middle of the night. The front desks staff are also nice and kind.👍👍👍"

"Actually this is the best cheap hotel I have ever booked, staff are nice and friendly and accessible for everything. I will book another one in the future. Thank you again for all the staff."
