Manila Hostels

"This was one of the best hotel I stayed at in Manila. I had some hesitations about the shared toilet and bathroom, but they were quite clean by Philippine standards. The hotel even has a pool, so you can sit by the pool in the evening and meet other guests. However, our room didn't have a window and was a bit damp. The only downside of the hotel is that the surroundings aren't very safe. You need to be cautious around the hotel if you're a foreigner. Mall of Asia is only 10-minutes by Jeepney. The hotel is also close to the airport for those leaving the city."

"Yung room and service super okay. Ang problem dito eh yung parking nila, sobrang sikip sa basement. Pag SUV ang hirap na ipasok — may open parking naman kaso hindi mai-take risk kasi ang gusto eh iiwan ang car key sa parking attendant which is hindi okay at all. Sa parking lang talaga may problema dito, pero kung room and service pati food nila, super okay talaga."

"⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Great Budget Stay in Manila We stayed in Manila near Pres. Quirino Ave., and overall it was a good experience, especially for the price. The location is very convenient — close to Malate, restaurants, convenience stores, and accessible to public transportation. The room was simple but clean and comfortable enough for a short stay. Aircon was working well (very important in Manila!), and the staff were approachable and helpful whenever we had questions. It’s a good option if you’re looking for an affordable place under ₱1,000 per night. Don’t expect luxury, but for budget travelers, it’s worth it. Would consider staying here again."

"Definitely one of the cleanest, if not THE cleanest, of all the hostels I've been in. The staff are friendly and accommodating. The bed is comfortable, towel is provided, and the toilet and showers are well-maintained. Across the hostel is a store and a carinderia (eatery) where you can buy affordable food and drinks. Make sure to order buffalo chicken wings for only Php 250. The silog meals are sold for as low as Php 85. There's a bakery and a coffee kiosk too; both located across the hostel building. When you exit the hostel, there is a Samgyupsal place and laundrymat to the right. Good service and great people too! There is a balcony where you can eat food ordered from Grab or FoodPanda. Location is also near Robinsons Manila, Rizal Memorial Tennis Center, DLSU Taft, and many government offices. Love it here! I will book again."

"Cheap, great location near the park. This huge room has 60 beds, good for people who don't mind sharing. There are no curtains, so it's really just for sleeping. Besides the beds, there's only a bathroom, no other space. The downside is there's no hot water, only cold."

"Clean, spacious (enough for us), accessible to different shops and fast food restaurants, big help for our trip yet very AFFORDABLE! Will definitely book again soon. Many thanks we enjoy our stay! God bless! 😍"

"Facilities: Well-equipped. Cleanliness: Spotless. Ambiance: Elegant. Service: Excellent. The location is very easy to find, right on the street, next to a BDO bank, and there are many dining options nearby, which is super convenient. There are large common areas on both the 5th and 2nd floors, and the internet connection is also very good. All the staff are very friendly."

"The staff is really nice, helpful, and friendly. They try the best to interact with all the people as my observation and try to remember our name as well. The location is good for me as it is under visitors gather point and walk out u can see many visitors as u also easy to find a foods especially to who not really cannot accept local road foods. They also offer free walking tours around the area and explain to u. Opps not to forget the free welcoming drinks. Probably, if they can indicate the name of drinks, it will be much helpful as I do not know, and too hard for me to remember when staff told me during place order. The room i booked is dorm for 4. They do offer me a free lock to lock the locker rather than I need to buy the new one. Highly appreciated. But I found the locker is dirty with maybe detergent , i am not sure, but my bag all has been full with the unknown dirty and I need to use my own one time deal tower to clean it . Really sad. Probably, future staff need to check the locker condition besides the bed. Overall, if u are looking for party night and knowing more new friends, it is good options, but if you prefer a quiet environment, u may need to reconsider."

"The dormitory was reportedly full when I checked in and the receptionist quickly offered a choice to put me up at a sister branch nearby, which I accepted. The bed was basic and clean. The restroom can improved improved in terms of cleanliness, but considering the high utilization I can accept. Overall, I recommend Dormitel Ermita for a quick stay in Manila."
