Discover Metro Manila: Unforgettable and Affordable Hotels at Quezon City and Mandaluyong City Philippines

ABBEY: As our schedule was packed, we decided to stay in a couple of hotels in Manila to save time and be in close proximity to our destinations.

Privato Quezon City: This hotel is lovely and quiet. It's clean, and we had ample space in our room. They even reheated our 'takeaway' food from our loved ones and provided us with some medicine when we caught the flu. For sustainability, they offer a water refilling station in the lift lobbies. They could improve by ensuring that basic amenities and toiletries are readily available in the room without guests needing to call the front desk.

Privato Ortigas: I wouldn't recommend this one. Despite a warm reception at the front desk, the room did not meet our expectations. This was after we stayed for more than a week at their branch in Quezon City. The mattress and sheets had stains and holes, the air conditioning unit was leaking, the bidet hose was rusty, and there were cockroaches. We thought we would be given another room after providing feedback, but that didn't happen. We even had to call them twice because the refilling station's tank was empty. We stayed there for one night, canceled the rest of our stay, and relocated to another hotel.


Novotel Suites Manila at Acqua: Your name will be checked against the reservation list on the ground floor since the reception is located on the 21st. Our room was spacious and included an office desk, a couch, and even a microwave oven. The bathroom, toilet, and sink were separated in an open concept. Our bed was comfortable and soft, accompanied by fluffy pillows and a cozy blanket. From the viewing deck, you can enjoy a great view of the Pasig River, and the hotel is across from the Rockwell Power Plant Mall. The buffet breakfast had fewer options but came at a discounted price of Php 450 from Php 900. The hotel is also pet-friendly.


Park Inn by Radisson North Edsa: We had a hard time booking our reservation online, and even signing up as a member was difficult at the time. We ended up calling and booking a room. Similar to Novotel Suites, the reception was on an upper floor instead of the ground. The room had a light, clean, and chic ambiance. The hotel is connected to SM the Block, which is a plus for shopping and dining. I highly recommend Mandara Spa; they hit all the right spots, and the ginger tea tasted great.

WILL: We decided to book hotels for our Philippine vacation in 2023 to save time and maximize our vacation. Here's the list of hotels where we stayed:

Privato Hotels:

I always make it a point that, at the end of the day, Abbey and I have a clean and relaxing place to sleep. I'm proud to say that I chose Privato QC. Their lobby is spacious, the rooms and sheets were clean, and the staff's hospitality is top-notch. I definitely recommend Privato QC, especially if you plan to stay longer than 3 days. They offer special discounts, making it a real value for money. On the other hand, I wouldn't recommend the Ortigas Branch. The lobby is not clean, the rooms have issues, and we even reported cockroaches and an air conditioning leak, but they didn't address our complaints.


Novotel Suites Manila at Acqua:

As members of different hotel chains, we decided to splurge a bit during our vacation and stayed at Novotel for 2 nights. The room was amazing, with a huge bed, two soft pillows, a separate water closet and shower, and aromatic toiletries. Novotel even surprised us with a congratulatory cake! However, I had higher expectations for the breakfast buffet they recommended we purchase at 50% off. The meager selection left me feeling a bit cheated. Nevertheless, we had an overall lovely stay.


Park Inn by Radisson North Edsa:

Radisson became our savior hotel after the discomfort of Privato Ortigas. We chose it for its accessibility to our family and the convenience of being near SM North. The room was decent, with a huge and comfortable bed, although they only provided one pillow per person, which felt a bit awkward for a hotel. I recommend it, but be prepared for the bustling business of Metro Manila life."
