City of Manila Hotels with Rooftop Pools

"A bit crowded due to the season and group bookings, so check-in took a while, which was understandable. The view from our room is currently a construction site, and there are no nearby convenience stores, but that was okay. Mother enjoyed her complimentary birthday cake and the breakfast. Both rooms were nice, and the amenities and services were great. Too bad we weren’t able to use the sauna or the gym. Maybe next time. Overall, our stay was quite enjoyable"

"I had a great stay at Hotel 101-Manila. The location is excellent—very convenient and accessible, especially since it’s close to SM Mall of Asia and other key spots in the area. The staff were also very accommodating and responsive to requests, which made the stay even more comfortable. Check-in and other assistance were smooth and hassle-free. Overall, it’s a good choice for anyone looking for a clean, affordable, and well-located hotel in Manila. I would definitely consider staying here again."

"This hotel is incredibly close to the airport, right across from it. I stayed on the eighth floor, and the soundproofing was decent, but it couldn't block out the motorbike noise. The service was generally good. However, there was a slight sewer smell coming from the bathroom, and the hairdryer's power was a bit weak. They offer in-room massage services, but you have to go to the front desk to pay by card immediately after your massage. The pool is shallow, with live music by the poolside, and it's quite enjoyable for a swim, but it closes at 8 PM, so you have to make the most of it. Also, despite being close to the airport (about a 20-minute walk), the pedestrian walkways aren't very convenient; you often encounter obstacles that force you onto the road. Taking a taxi would be a better option."

"Location wise hotel is accessible to any airport but most to NAIA Terminal 3 since it is just a walking distance via the runway to newport vice versa. Since our flight the next day will be at 10:30pm, i requested for late check out until 2PM only. Actually I expected until 4PM but it is based on availability since it was granted to us 2 weeks ago. The hotel provided 2 bottles of water but it is lacking for us. There is Lawson convenience store downstairs & walkable Mcdo. We availed of breakfast but the food werre same all thoughout my stays before."

"This was our third stay at Kingsford, and once again, we had a great experience. We booked a Superior Twin Room, which was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Although we weren’t assigned a city-view room this time, the relaxing river view was just as lovely. We’re hoping to get a higher-floor room on our next visit. We also enjoyed spending time at Zabana Bar in the lobby, which has a charming retro vibe. The poolside bar was another highlight, and the atmosphere was relaxing, the drinks were excellent, and being beside the pool made the experience even more enjoyable. We also tried the restaurant, and we were impressed by how spacious, cozy, and elegant it was. Special thanks as well to the nurse who was available 24/7 and promptly attended to our medical needs. Their care and assistance made our stay even more comfortable and reassuring."

"The hotel is nice and overall a pleasant place to stay. The rooms and facilities are good, but the elevators can get very crowded because there are only three elevators serving many establishments in the building. During busy hours, the wait time can be quite long. Still, it’s a good hotel, but improving elevator access would make the experience much better."

"The room was clean and smelled great. Aqua Adventure was free, which made our stay super worth it! The WiFi was decent; it lagged a bit when my partner and I played ML (Mobile Legends), LOL, but it was fine for Netflix, YouTube, and scrolling through other social media platforms. The water dispenser was practically next to our room, so we had no trouble getting drinking water even in the early hours. As for Aqua Adventure, I wish it were cleaner, as there was a lot of moss. The water itself was clean, but the floor was really slippery, and there were many kids swimming there."

"My 2-night stay in Manila was truly a story for the absurd. When I checked into room #4008 at 8 PM on April 9th, everything seemed normal. However, on the morning of April 10th at 8 AM, since I had booked two nights – the first in a standard room and the second in a queen room – I packed all my clothes neatly, ready for the cleaning staff to transfer my personal belongings later that afternoon. I was a bit worried at the time, so I even took a photo of my folded clothes as proof (please see attachment). At 9 AM on April 10th, I went to the front desk and explained my situation. They assigned me a new room, #2010. I specifically asked them to help transfer my clothes from room #4008 to my new room. The young woman at the reception said, “Okay, sure.” When I returned from work at the factory at 6:00 PM on April 10th and entered room #2010, getting ready for an evening party, I discovered that the clothes I needed to change into were missing. I immediately rushed to the front desk to inquire. Initially, they were hesitant and evasive, but after my persistent questioning, they admitted that due to an internal communication error, my clothes had been treated as miscellaneous items and disposed of by their staff. Naturally, I was not satisfied with this answer and demanded an internal investigation. After all, the items I left were neatly folded and placed on hangers – clean clothes and shoes – there was no reason for them to be treated as trash. As I continued to discuss with them, they asked an irritating question: “Who did you tell at the front desk when you gave them the task on the morning of April 10th?” In my opinion, with numerous cameras at the hotel’s front desk and check-in records for staff, identifying which staff member made the mistake (or oversight) should be an internal responsibility of the hotel, not something an overseas guest should have to figure out. After about 15 minutes of discussion, they finally located some of my clothes with the housekeeping team and asked me to wait in my room. So I waited in my room from 7:00 PM until 7:30 PM until the service staff brought my bag of clothes. Upon checking, 6-7 items were still missing. Due to the repeated hassle and the lack of proper attire, attending the evening party was clearly out of the question. However, continuing to argue with the hotel staff seemed fruitless, so my companion and I simply went to a nearby mall for a quick dinner. When I returned after dinner at 9:10 PM and opened my room, thankfully, I finally received the remaining bag of clothes..."

"This is my 5th and I love staying here as always. The hotel is clean and smells good. This hotel is situated nearby park for a quick stroll, restaurants once you get hungry and grocery shops where you can buy your immediate needs. I would say the accommodation is a bit pricey but there are days where you can book this at a very affordable price.Plus the staff are very accommodating and friendly for any urgent needs. Overall I am very satisfied with my stay here and would love to book again here."

"The rooms were spacious, spotless, and featured remarkably comfortable beds. The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable—nothing was too much trouble. The location was perfect for sightseeing, within walking distance of popular landmarks. Don’t miss the breakfast buffet; it had a huge variety of delicious options. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a stress-free and pleasant stay!"
