Hotel Suites Guide - experience, cost, etc

**Phoenix67** · August 12th, 2013 09:55 AM

Although mas marami ang prefered talaga ay budget accomodation...baka puedeng magcompile din tayo ng pang high-end accomodation. Para din sa mga nagbabalak ng weekend splurge experience, honey-mooners at sa mga gusto lang malaman.

Will start with some that I know of or learned of:

EDSA Shangri-la:

Shangri-La Suite - located sa Garden wing, one bed room, may sala, may dining table, merun kitchenette, may access sa Horizon Club. Cost around P38k to 42k ++ (depending on season). Yung ++ ay plus 10% service charge, 12.%+ na Government taxes.

Makati Shangrila, Manila Peninsula, New World Hotel, Ascott Hotel puro nasa makati.

ano kaya mga rates ng suites ng mga un? delux room lang lang kasi alam ko 10k per night.

We have stayed sa Ascott Hotel nuon. It is not that pricey vs Makati Shangri-la and Intercon.

The typical Deluxe sa hotel would be around P7k to 12k ++. Sa Ascott it will be almost the same...pero the room is bigger (yung One bedroom nila). They also have off-peak seasons which is usually 20% less than normal rate. Mahirap magbook ng 3-bedroom nila kasi kaunti lang...pero there was a time we got this for a reunion with the families of our friends - tatlong family kami dun (11 kids and 6 adults) kasayang kasya pa rin...maluwag kasi ang sala...with three (yata) na bathrooms (including pang maids quarter). The 3-bedroom also have a maids room pa (hindi nga lang abot ang lamig ng aircon dun sa room).

Big ref, puedeng magluto (oven, burner, microwave), complete utensils (kung kulang tawag lang sa house keeping), puede ring maglaba (electric washer/dryer). The two bedroom also have these facilities pero walang maids quarter - dati nasa 12k++.

Breakfast though is simple compared sa Shang at limited to usually 2 adults lang...although marami naman puedeng mabili sa ibaba ng hotel na much cheaper,

ung iba sir ginagawa combined room?

Yun three bedroom at two bedroom ng Ascott hindi ganun....its more like a condominum.

Sa EDSA Shang, yung Luzon Suite nila na nsa Tower wing ay mukhang combined room lang (sala and room)...but it is being renovated now, so baka magbago ang itsura.

Yung Presidential Suite ng Marriot isang malaking one bedroom lang...halos equivalent sa 3 rooms siguro....forgot the quoted price though pero parang nasa P80k++ range.

F1 Hotel, BGC - Fort Suite

Got it at around 7k (including taxes), 3k cheaper than the published rate of 10k through Agoda. I'd say that for a hotel that claims to be 5-star, it fell way beyond my expectations. I have stayed at numerous luxurious hotels in and out of the country and this has got to be the ultimate ripoff.

Although I gotta give credit to the modern zen interiors of our room, it lacked certain elements. For one, they need to do something with the faulty keycard scanners of their elevators. Another would have to be the quaint entrance to their lobby. It's too quaint that you either have to be dropped off at the corner and walk your way through a tiny street with an ongoing onstruction, or try your luck in getting your car in.

It's the little things that matter, and it's also the little things that can make you irate.
