I had a two day stay at the Mandarin in Makati, and loved every moment of it. A warm welcome, bags up to your room on time, and a courteous hello from the staff at every turn. The breakfast buffet had a vast variety of local and continental cuisines. I specially loved the choice of local fruit. I was often... More

Exemplary service and amenities, in Makati, not too far from all action. Staff is very responsive and everyone makes all effort to provide efficient service upon request. We used daily massage that was reasonably priced and the food was excellent. More

Each morning my daughter and I would wander down for the amazing buffet breakfast, and be greeted by our hostess with a beautiful smile and sunny disposition that instantly made you feel like you were the most important person she'd seen that day! The level of service and attention from the staff of this hotel is above what you would... More

This Hotel was really nice. The pool is beautiful. Fancy restaurants throughout. The main restaurant requires formal attire but they let you in the breakfast buffet wearing shorts. Within walking distance of the greenbelt mall. Very nice shops and restaurants. They have a security force and search dog out front but I think it is just for show since he... More

Nothing is too much trouble for the outstanding staff at this hotel. The rooms are getting towards needing a refurb, but for that don't read that they are threadbare or in dire need.They are still good, well equipped, tidy, clean and with everything you need whether you are a business or leisure traveller. Whatever your needs here, you'll find that... More

Much like an aging film star this hotel is well past it's time for a major facelift and frankly should be an embarrassment to the Mandarin Oriental brand. Dull lobby with bland featureless reception and concierge desks are compounded by a general sense that the paint is peeling and this hotel is on its last legs. The staff however at... More

Stayed 2 nights in December. Check in at the club level was easy and efficient. Carpet in the hallway was worn down and pieces of it coming up and frayed. There was also a distinct stale scent. Room was spacious and bed was comfy but definitely needs some serious remodeling. Wardrobe doors would not stay closed. Room service was good... More

Having read some of the previous reviews regarding the need for renovation I would have to agree that the rooms are showing a slight degree of wear and tear compared to when I stayed here 11 years ago, however, that would be my one and only gripe. To be honest the room we stayed in was a generous size and... More

As many of us have previously remarked, this hotel is badly in need of either demolition and replacement with a 2015 standard hotel (perhaps with an apartment tower next door given the size of the land parcel) or a complete renovation. Since I am unaware as to the ownership of the land I cannot make an overly wel informed comment... More
