Stunning Hotels in Manila

The Henry Hotel Manila

With its garden pool and fence, "The Henry" is typical as a holiday resort — except it's in Pasay City. Grab a book from the library, relax outdoors on the chairs or try a classic Filipino (菲律宾的) breakfast: longganisa sausages or milkfish with fried eggs and garlic rice.

Price: from 7,500PHP (£99).

Admiral Hotel Manila-MGallery

The hotel is known for its art decoration style. The rooms are rich in hard lines and brass fixtures(黄铜夹具). For the best sight, head upstairs to Admiral Club. If you want to experience more, head downstairs to Ruby Wong's for some drinks and Filipino-Chinese food.

Price: from 7,600PHP (£137).

King's Hotel

Newly built in 2022, King's Hotel has all the features you'd expect from the Europe-based brand, including facilities from IKEA. In the hotel, guests can have an interesting outlook: the space is a glass-structured wonder, with stylish hanging lights and wooden art works.

Price: from 12,700PHP (£229).

Shangri-La at The Fort

It's all charm at the Shangri-La, lifts with hanging lights and in-room lights as bright as in a mall. Yet, it all fades in comparison to what's outside: the hotel's 576 guest rooms include floors 18-40 of a 755-foot-high building, giving visitors an unlimited view over the Bonifacio Global City district.

Price: from 15,500PHP (£270).
