Quote: The Pan Pacific Manila was booked online using Agoda. Having used Agoda's service in the past with our billing information already registered in their database, the booking was quick. This is quite an upscale five-star class hotel. This hotel was chosen for its location in the Spanish Quarter, Malate area, where there's a gay scene nightlife and close walking distance to Robinson's Place for shopping, eating, cineplex, and two miles from the business district, underground parking is available.

There's a K-9 dog unit at the entrance to sniff out your incoming baggage, metal detector, security initially suspicious then friendly smiling staff once they realize you're hotel guests.

Check in was relatively easy. The room is very spacious and nicely done with a king size, comfortable bed for a good night sleep. The bathroom is nicely done with a bathtub, a separate shower, large mirrors, illuminated convex mirror for your shaving. The shower door wouldn't close completely, allowing water to get on the bathroom floor, a minor maintenance issue. Access through the upper floors, elevator, room is through the use of your hotel issued swipe card during your stay. A mini bar, fridge is available for use. There is turn down service for your bed.

A Jacuzzi and swimming pool on the 6th floor with towels provided is available for use from 6am to 8pm. A health club on the 6th floor is available for an additional fee offers spa treatments, massage, salon services, a sauna, and steam room. Broadband Internet is available for an additional fee.

Adriatico Square, a five floor complex inside the hotel, has 30 restaurants and bars, for coffee, cocktails, a light meal, or a fine dining experience. Guests may order room service from any of these restaurants. The Pacific Lounge is on the 21st floor, an elegant place for breakfast, afternoon tea, and cocktails.

Complimentary coffee or tea is provided offered along with our wake up call when we asked for one. Though a minor error was made, provided two coffees instead of one coffee and one tea requested. The staff were alerted of this error and was offered to be redelivered, which we declined.
