Our stay at Yamato Hostel was okay overall. We arrived around midnight, and the location felt a bit off the main road, so it was quite dark. For safety, I would advise not going out at night. There was one security guard outside, which gave us some reassurance.
Inside, the lobby looked nice and welcoming. If you have large luggage, take note that there is no lift, but the staff will assist in bringing your bags to your room.
We booked the family suite, which was spacious and generally pleasant. The bed was soft and comfortable, but unfortunately we couldn’t sleep well because the room was hot. The downside is that there was only one air conditioner in the living room. This made the bedroom stuffy, even when we set the air conditioner to the lowest temperature. With two toddlers, I was glad we had brought a mini fan with us.
Overall, if you are traveling without kids, this place can be a good choice. But with young children, I personally would not stay here again.
All is good except for the longer queue when checking- in and at breakfast. Maybe because of the holiday season that there are so many guests. I think they need to improve their system coz it really takes a longer time. Thank you for accommodating us.
I'm completely satisfied during our stay here. The essential twin room that we stayed in is far larger compared to other competitors, the room also has more life in it. Staff were all helpful and greets you everytime, it gives you a sense that you are always welcome. Location is very strategic but you have to walk 300-500 meters to reach Runway Manila if you're staying because of a NAIA T3 flight (this is it's only downside compared to Belmont) but a plus is you're staying in Newport City and it has plenty to offer.
The gym is also well equipped and it is located just adjacent to the hotel pool.
Breakfast Buffet is excellent. The taho station is a nice Pinoy touch for anyone returning to the country when they've been away for years.
Book this hotel if you want convenience and value for money.
I recommend this hotel especially for someone who prefers staying near NAIA airport.The staff are all professional and helpful. I arrived past 10pm already from travel and they accommodated me without any delays. The area is also safe compared to other places in Manila. There's a coffee shop nearby as well.
The housekeeping also makes sure I have my daily supply of water which I'm very grateful for, no need for me to call additional service for that.
Overall, it was a wonderful experience.
P.S please hug the guard sniffing dog for me. They are all well trained.
We stayed at the Grand Westside Hotel as a family of four in two connecting rooms, and overall, it was excellent value for money. Since the rooms are brand new, the space felt fresh and modern, and we especially enjoyed the great breakfast selection. However, we did notice a few small things that could be improved. There was a stain on the corner wall near the window, our table was quite uneven, and we noticed there were no bathrobes or an alarm clock provided. We also had some trouble reaching the staff, as no one answered the front desk phone between 9:40 AM and 11:30 AM. Despite these minor ”punchlist” items, it was a comfortable stay for our family, and we’d definitely recommend it for the price and the quality of the rooms. I loved the logo too, placing it on their walls and accessories, gave it a touch of premiumness. Additional couch/stools around the lobby can also improve the overall feel.
I get it, I booked a budget hotel and shouldn't really expect much. And I didn't. But was pleasantly surprised with how nice and courteous their staff were. From the security guards to the front desk clerks - they were all so pleasant and accommodating. Now for the ”bad” part: the check-in process was tedious! Granted it was New Year's eve and they probably were overbooked - but they really need to figure out a better system of booking. Tempers flared and voices raised! The Titas were not pleased! haha! Also, they could use some refurbishing: floor tiles literally taped (as in scotch taped!) on the floor! The desk in the room is wobbly and broken. My biggest beef though is this: I had my room cleaned thinking they would replenish the toiletries or at least keep the ones I partly used. Instead I returned to a room without toilet paper and they took out my used towel which was hanging on the rack (isn't it a universal rule that if you hang your towels, you intend to use it again?) so now, I'm left with just 1 (the extra) towel. I mean, why remove the toilet paper?! If they were not going to replace it with a fresh, new roll, at least leave whatever was left from the previous day! It really took them more time, energy and effort to remove what was there - which I barely touched, by the way. Just seemed odd! Also, the breakfast buffet, while quite affordable at P450 per person, is really not that exciting. You're better off going to the Jollibee next door or get one of those microwaveable meals from 7-11 (also at the ground floor). Checking out was quicker, except for the super long wait for elevators!
During my first stay at the hotel, the room was quite good it was located on the upper floor. There was a small space for my belongings to put in and a coffee table with chairs, but during my next stay and just recently my room was located on lower floor, the room seems to be getting small with no side tables and chairs where I can put my belongings or to have coffee or eat the food that I bought from outside the hotel. Hopefully on my next visit I could have a better room just like the first time I stayed at the hotel. And someone will assist me to locate the room so I'm not lost. For me, I recommend this hotel, it's accessible to all.

Such a lovely hotel! The staff are always so accommodating and friendly. We always choose to stay here, and every visit leaves us completely satisfied. Highly recommended!
This has been my go-to hotel in Makati. You get 5 star facilities and more for the price of a four star hotel. Plus, the location is also great as well since this is located in between two major thoroughfares, Kalayaan avenue and Makati Avenue. The only thing I say that needs improvement is the breakfast selection.
I book this hotel as it was near at star city not knowing that i might regret and disappointment it somehow. If you are particular in cleanliness i might suggest book in other hotel. First the bed sheet got yellow stain and hair.
2. The wall got painted falling.
3. Tv was been set up in a Chinese. No netflix ( you need to sign in your own) . Normal tv channel was been not working.
4. The hall way have a smoke smell and some how it go through inside of the room( although there is a humidifier inside of the room you can still smell it.
5. You can hear the noise inside of the room from outside. Seems the wall is a thin like a can. We did not get enough rest as we can hear the noise from the people who use the staire( our room was beside of stair).
6. Bring your own towel. Our room is good for 4 but only 2 towel is available and slippers( if you gonna ask for.extra you need to pay.
7. No fridge, and iron.
8. Our room.was located at 3rd floor and there is a window ( but the window cannot be close. We afraid for our security
9. For food i suggest you to eat outside or order the grab as i see its not find it worth it.
10. Staff is nice and approachable and the guard is helpful to find me a taxi.
11. Upon entering the room and do check the bathroom i notice the tissue roll just 1/4 left . So we buy our own instead cause it seems that its also chargeble.
Over all we did not appreciate and satisfied our stay at the hotel even its just 1 night.
Please take note this is just our opinion as a person who works in hospitality industry and always checking in a 3-5 star hotel.

MMhike BravoVery comfortable and clean room to stay. But I don't want the front desk agent attitude! They are all not accommodating! Kudos to the doorman who always greet me.
SShenlan314Overall, it's pretty good, though the value for money is just average. I was a bit hesitant to book after reading some reviews, but it wasn't as bad as I expected once I checked in. The breakfast was decent too.
**Facilities:** There are 6 elevators, making it convenient to go up and down. The hotel is highly automated with modern technology.
**Cleanliness:** Typical Philippines style – a moldy smell, poorly maintained, and the sheets looked dirty. (This is a common issue in many places here, so I'm not surprised).
**Environment:** Although it's close to the airport, there wasn't much noise in my room.
**Service:** The check-in process was inefficient. There were only two customers in front of me and two staff members, but I waited for almost 20 minutes (this aligns with what other reviews said). However, I wasn't asked for a deposit upon check-in, and check-out was quick – just handed in the card.
MMiranda and Purag TravelThis was my third stay at The Bayview, and once again it didn’t disappoint. My room on the 11th floor offered a breathtaking view of the sunrise and sunset—truly the highlight of my stay. The Christmas decorations around the property added a beautiful, festive atmosphere. The room itself was spacious and comfortable, and breakfast featured delicious Filipino food along with great coffee. Transportation was easy, as taxis and Grab rides were readily available after checkout. The guard and hotel staff were consistently friendly and helpful. Another wonderful stay!❤️💪

MmyunextPerfect Family Retreat near SM North QC!
Our family stayed at Hotel Dreamworld North EDSA to close out the year (Dec 29–31), and it exceeded our expectations. As a family of four, we found the environment perfect for both bonding and spiritual reflection. The breakfast was good, the staff were very friendly, and being near SM North is a huge plus. We really enjoyed our time here!
JJoyceTan23All is good except for the longer queue when checking- in and at breakfast. Maybe because of the holiday season that there are so many guests. I think they need to improve their system coz it really takes a longer time. Thank you for accommodating us.
HHumphreySUIThe location is perfect for SM Aura or High Street or Uptown, very walkable! The bureau of immigration is also inside SM Aura office building. The staff told me if you chose 1 person to stay, you'd get a queen bed. but if you chose 2 people, you'd get a single and a double bed. So just choose 1 person next time to save some money! The room is very decent and it has everything, but the type of AC they use can be loud but it didn't really bother me.

GGuest UserThe price is affordable, rooms are clean enough, and people are friendly. Also, it is convenient to travel to all destinations, equally close.
However, there's only one hairdryer in the building, which makes it super inconvenient, and no slippers are provided. Another concern would be safety, Pasay city is more local, you can experience authentic lifestyle, but there are risks of getting into trouble I think.
All in all, after living 3 days there, I would still recommend travelers this hotel.
