Up to this point the Intercontinental and Mandarin Oriental were great in my book, but the Intercontinental is a notch above. The special membership I could afford there is not open to non- special guests like me.

We arrived for a business trip and found the hotel very comfortable. Gym and spa was great and Conways bar an experience. The negative was the room service menu which was poor. Enjoyed the experience, the staff were terrific and service first class.

I've stayed here a few times for business with my father. I think I've gone roughly 5 times? 5 or 6? I've started to lose count. It's beautiful! I love having drinks at the lobby. The rooms are nice and the staff are sweet as well. I had a little trouble with the wifi and room detail (reserved no smoking... More

This was my first trip to Manila and the Philippines so I was somewhat apprehensive since I would be working in the business district - Makati City for 10 days. Luckily I was traveling with a seasoned Manila visitor but she usually stays at the New World hotel. I knew very little about the Shangri-La chain but I had heard... More

From its stunning views & direct to business district, competent and attentive staff and its large family suite this hotel cannot be faulted. Relaxing swimming pool - many a 5 star hotel weakness. Concierge welcome us with great smile.. We even were provided an extra-early room service breakfast free of charge as we were missing our breakfast to get to... More
