Reading some of the reviews on there does make me think there is just no pleassing some people The negative comments regarding the restaurants are particularly puzzling The choice of food was second to none --unless you are vegetarian which I am so it did become a bit of a hassle ,but the breakfast choice was superb and I cannot... more

I stayed at the Manila Mandarin from May 14th to 20th, 2009 and was stunned at the old and shabby condition of rooms and corridors. The reasonably pleasant staff do not compensate for this definietly un-Mandarin hotel. Avoid it more

We picked the Mandarin as it was close to our house, we had a good corporate rate, but most of all, because of the inroom business facilities such as scanner, printer, fax, internet.

Plus: Fantastic service and amazing breakfast! Great value - got a good price from asiatravel.com. Minus: All extras like internett, airport shuttle, spa, telephone and in- room breakfast was unbelieavebly expensive. Twice the price even compared to Hotel Peninsula. more
