Top hotels in Poblacion
Grand Westside Manila Bay
Took around 40mins for checking in. Been travelling around the world for almost 15yrs and the check in process in this hotel is the worst one. Main problem: - only 2 staffs available to addressed long line of people. - it took 30 mins before other staff supports the check in process

The Peninsula Manila
The lobby was grand but the room was dated despite it being a grand room (which was a VIP upgrade) but no different from the original room booked. Excellent breakfast selections and all the fresh coconut water you can drink. The seafood buffet was great too.
