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
Insight Guides
"This legendary hotel will appeal to World War II history buffs. One of the oldest buildings in the capital, it once hosted General Douglas MacArthur."

"Next door
to the Garden Plaza (see above) outside the walls
of Paco Park. Economy, standard, deluxe and
superior rooms, some with four-poster bed and
whirlpool bath. Not as plush as..."
Lonely Planet
"Well removed from the hustle and bustle of Malate and Ermita you’ll find this friendly neighbourhood hotel."

Lonely Planet
"You come here mainly because it’s relatively quiet and isolated, and because it’s a rare Manila midranger with a decent pool – perfect after a sweltering day of sightseeing in nearby Intramuros" Full review
