Red Planet Manila Bay

The hotel is very centrally located. From here you can reach many sights on foot. The large Robinson Mall is within walking distance and you can find everything you need there. The room is big enough and you can easily stay here for a few days. If you want the room cleaned, just let us know in advance. The WiFi worked quickly and without interruptions during my stay. The hotel doesn't have its own laundry but it's right on the doorstep, so to speak. If you need something to wash, the staff will take care of everything if you have any questions or concerns.

The whole stay is wonderful. It's actually comfortable. It's just a hassle if your going to stay with other families or in groups. We werent able to access other rooms easily because our rooms are in different floors. Should have been nice if they pushed that our rooms are close to each other (I booked 4 rooms). Will consider the hotel for our next bookings, but I hope they'll be able to grant our request next time if we're to travel in groups again. Overall, the rooms are clean and comfortable for an affordable price. Thank you!

We stayed there for 3 nights in room 1805. The staff is professional. The housekeeping is by request (cleaning, toilet paper). The wait time for an elevator can be long during rush hours, but the music in the hallways makes the wait pleasant. Very good wifi connection. We could see Manila Bay from our room. We appreciated the comfort of the bedding and the practicality of the room. Storage for the suitcase is provided under the bed. Very hot shower, and top-notch ventilation & airco system. Small handy fridge, there is a 7-Eleven 1 minute walk away. A water dispenser at reception, a kettle in the room. The surroundings are very poor, and do not make you want to stay there long. Deliveries via Grab do not operate in this area, but we discovered several fast food restaurants within 1 minute's walk, the "Robinsons Manila" shopping center is 7 minutes' walk away, as well as Rizal Park & "Manila Bay Dolomite Beach" is just in front. There is "Manilenos Sizzling House" restaurant on the first floor for Filipino cuisine.

The location is primarily the selling point of this branch of Red Planet. My mother and I stayed at their hotel for an interview with the US Embassy. It was right across from the hotel, so it was convenient to stay there. Although the roads outside the hotel were narrow, and one can say that it looked like an alleyway rather than a road, we were already next to Roxas Boulevard and some major landmarks and streets (like Taft, for example), which means it was easy access to transportation. Our room had a view of Manila Bay, so that was a nice touch from the hotel to assign us to that room. The beds were comfy, and the comforter was warm. Our request for an iron and its ironing board was also granted right away, so I liked that about them.

The Red Planet in Manila Bay is a more upscale Red Planet hotel. I liked the added desk, chair, layout and the room seemed more spacious. The location is great because you are right in the heart of the beehive with plenty of sites to see, great transportation, malls, and the US Embassy across the street.
