nonthaburial Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 Makati is the business centre of Manila and although having a good number of bars and restaurants they are rather upmarket, but I dont get the feeling that is the action you are craving. I would suggest you have a look at the website for the Swagman Hotel which is located in Ermita which is an action type of place - if you get my drift. Just google swagman manila and see for yourself. As the name suggests its an Australian owned establishment but more importantly, they arrange free airport pick up and drop offs. By taxi from their location to Makati is only about 20 mins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerryd Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 When you arrive in Manila, walk out the doors of the terminal. Look off to your left (maybe 20 meters). There is an office there where you can check out hotels. They have binders of brochures for hotels all over the city, in various price ranges. Once you have decided on one, they will call and make sure rooms are available and reserve one for you, and help arrange a taxi. I did exactly that, and ended up at some place called the Executive Plaza Hotel. Fairly central, not too bad of a place. (Trying to find the card from the hotel and the price). Can't find it. Any ways, it was in the <$50.00 range. At that office you can tell them the range your looking for and they'll have a binder full of brochures for you to pick from. Good luck !
