Frommer's "Its public areas and older rooms could use a renovation in places, but the newer rooms are arguably the best and most luxurious in the city -- and you simply can't beat it for Old Manila charm." Full review

Rough Guide "Esteemed establishment that is undoubtedly past its best but nevertheless reeks of history, at least in the old wing where General Douglas MacArthur stayed during World War II."
