Hotel berhampiran Arroceros Forest Park di Manila

During my recent 3-day, 2-night stay at Swiss-Belhotel Blulane in Manila, the overall experience left much to be desired. While the hotel had potential, the importance of providing quality service to guests seemed inconsistent. Firstly, there was a noticeable discrepancy in the service provided by the on-the-job trainees. While some displayed genuine warmth and eagerness to assist, others seemed hesitant, particularly when they perceived that a guest might not offer a tip. This attitude detracted from the overall guest experience and contradicted the essence of hospitality, which should prioritize genuine care and assistance regardless of gratuity. Additionally, the functionality of the elevators was a significant inconvenience. With only one elevator in operation, guests frequently experienced delays and overcrowding, resulting in frustration and inconvenience. This issue significantly impacted the efficiency of guest movement within the hotel and should be addressed promptly to enhance overall satisfaction. In conclusion, while this hotel in Manila has potential, there are notable areas for improvement, particularly in ensuring consistent and genuine guest service and addressing operational inefficiencies such as elevator functionality. By instilling in all staff members, including trainees, a genuine commitment to hospitality and service excellence, the hotel can elevate the overall guest experience and distinguish itself as a premier destination for travelers.

The environment is beautiful, the location is good, the transportation is convenient, the rooms are comfortable and hygienic, and the service staff are very enthusiastic and willing to provide all kinds of help. The facilities are very user-friendly, the network signal is good, and the scenery outside the window is beautiful. Good value for money, will stay again next time

I got to stay here because I'm ordered to follow protocol entering the country. I have to be quarantined for couple of days. However, I encountered couple of issues that I think I need to address with. 1. When my flight was cancelled I wasn't given the opportunity to reschedule my date of arrival. Imagine how exhausting it is after a long flight to call agency after agency to get another connecting flights. I had to call to reschedule/cancel swab testing coz of the cancelled flight. I had to call the hotel in manila (RedDoorz near Quiapo Church) to bypass and to consider rescheduling the date of my arrival because it was so hard to get connected with an agent over the phone but it wasn't granted. So I ended up paying a night of a room without even staying in there. 2. The front desk who checked me in was rude, not even helpful at all. I asked her when I checked in if there's a WIFI. She said its in the back of my key. When I got to my room. I checked the back of my key. It's a combination of number. I know I'm not blind but it never goes through. I called her and she said that's the only password she could give me. I called her again in an hour and she keeps saying the same thing so I gave up since its 2 in the morning and I just decided to fix everything tomorrow when I wake up. 3. I called the front desk about the same issue from the evening. They said the WIFI password is only located at the back of my room key. And they said they will try to look for something else and will call me back. 2 hours passed nobody called me. I had to go downstairs regardless I'm on 'quarantine' because no one seems to be helpful at all. Caught them laughing and chitchatting in the lobby when I'm struggling to get access to WIFI to settle some things to do with appointments etc. A nice lady came to my room and help me access the WIFI. It was quick. I asked her how she did it, She said there's a different WIFI password the management just happen to change it long ago and the password at the back of my key is so outdated. So I was speechless. From the night to the afternoon I was told the same thing that it was just at the back of the key. 4. I noticed 2 small cockroaches in my room which I don't really find it disturbing but for a business a running a hotel its a big NO NO NO. 5. My second night was horrifying. I woke up in the middle of the night and felt something was crawling in my back. I was too tired and sleepy to care for it. About a couple of minutes my oranges that was just sitting in the table fell out from the plastic bag. I find it strange but I was damn tired. Later this morning I found out that there's a rat bite in my orange, my cheez whiz and even the soap that I placed in the bathroom sink had a bite on it. I called the FD and someone came in to my room. I was shocked to be asked by a guard to check if there's a visible hole anywhere in my room. He told me that how would a rat came in to my room when its all closed. I'm assuming he is not think

With a stay at RedDoorz near SM Manila in Manila (Ermita), you'll be within a 5-minute drive of Rizal Park and Robinson's Place. This hotel is 4.8 mi (7.8 km) from SM Mall of Asia and 6.4 mi (10.3 km) from Newport World Resorts.Make yourself at home in one of the 62 air-conditioned guestrooms. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Bathrooms have showers and complimentary toiletries. Conveniences include desks and complimentary bottled water.

The place was quite clean but we had some small cockroaches in our room... The toilet and shower were fine. The room has no windows. The futuristic design is fun. The crew is very friendly and fast when we needed help with the AC(which was working fine, we just didn't realize there was a switch in the room for it). The hotel is near the MRT station but the surroundings are poor and dirty on the streets. Especially at night. So it's fine if you just want to hope on the public transportation quickly.

The place is pretty clean. Tha staffs and are very approachable and accommodating. I genuinely enjoyed my stay there.

At face value the hotel looks spectacular. The entrance, security and breakfast buffet and pool cannot be faulted. The service staff attitude is great. The welcome drinks in the Hyde is a great value add. The hotel is not far from the SM Mall which has plants restaurants and everything you might need while in Manila. Rizal park which is a great historical site to explore is also within a walking distance. I was however disappointed by the rooms, our room window was so dirty, I couldn’t even take a photo of the beautiful sunrise which was unfortunate. The internet is also subpar. A gradual updating of the rooms will do wonders and so would the change of linen and old and stained towels which should never be put in a room of a paying patron. My suggestion is be flexible and give room to accommodate guests when needed and a little upgrade of rooms to match the entrance.

We enjoyed our stay. Mababait ang mga staff nila. Sarap din nung Lomi nila.😅 *photos are just for coins. 😁pero ung Lomi inorder namin un sa hotel.*

We stayed 2 nights last weekend..this is our 2nd time in sunstar grand hotel. The deluxe room is ok, clean and the wifi is strong. we enjoyed our stay and for sure we will go back. All the staff are accomodating.

The Hotel is descently nearby 168 mall, Divisoria etc. The hotel had a nice lobby, Elevator with literally rugs that changed to Monday to Sunday, Altough the rooms are good, I really hate the bathroom, The shower looks like someone spit on it, and the smell. smells alot like watermelon frost and urine. yuck, well at least it did have a third party television which show fav movies like wonder woman or I dont know, Beauty and the beast, the rest are chinese stuff. All I say is, its a good and bad mall. nothing perfect. also, it was formerly Binondo suites, And its much MUCH, better than this hotel.
