Over the past several years, Metro Manila has been battered by bad rap: unpleasant airport and horrible traffic, just to name a few pet peeves. but for a lot more than ten years now, Manila has been my home. even when I have that rare opportunity of living a location-independent lifestyle, giving me a chance to stay nearly anywhere I want, I still choose Manila. Something about this city is sorely misunderstood. There’s a lot to see and do here, but that’s for another blog post.
The reality is, if you’re traveling to the Philippines, it’s hard to escape Manila. It is the gateway to the country’s a lot of stunning islands. a lot of flights come from and return to the capital, and connections can often indicate you will need to spend a night here.
Thing is, Metro Manila is huge! outside the Philippines, what lots of loosely refer to as simply Manila is actually the national capital Region, a cluster of 16 cities and one municipality. This makes it even harder to choose where to stay.
The first thing you must do is decide which area you want to stay in the metro. For me, there are four optimal options:
Manila, the capital city and seat of government. It’s where historic sites, like Intramuros, can be found.
Makati, where the central service district is located.
Mall of Asia and Bay Area, along Manila Bay and near the airport.
Bonifacio global City, another service district in Taguig.
Most affordable non-BnB accommodations, however, are in Makati and Manila. Although there are a few exceptions, the mall of Asia area and Bonifacio global City are normally pricey.
Below are the top 5 hotels in Makati and in Manila, according to TripAdvisor users (as of January 2017).
Note: These are budget hotels. I will be writing a separate post for hostels and BnBs.

Makati
Makati is always my top recommendation to those traveling to Manila for the first time. It’s close to the airport and is not too far from Manila’s historical core. Its streets are lined with amazing dining selections, from fancy restaurants to weekend markets. Its mall strips make it a terrific shopping destination, too. and best of all, lots of lodging options, from hostels to luxury hotels. If hostels are not for you and upscale suites are beyond what you can afford, then maybe a budget hotel is what you need. here are the top 5, according to TripAdvisor.
