Hotel Directory
Pan Pacific Manila
This luxurious skyscraper hotel in Manila is justifiably popular because of its top-drawer location in Malate's tourist quarter. It's worth the extra splurge to access the top-floor, glass-surrounded Pacific Lounge – lovely in the evening for sipping cocktails and listening to the pianist. The Manila hotel also offers 24-hour butler service and Japanese, Chinese and international restaurants. Early-bird bookings on Pan Pacific's website push prices down into the moderate bracket.

Sofitel Philippine Plaza
This 609-room behemoth is the go-to option for opulence. Its luxurious Bay of Manila-facing rooms command just about the finest views in the city. But it's the facilities that set Sofitel apart. The palm-fringed swimming pool is a veritable tropical oasis while Le Spa wellness centre provides plush pampering. Best of all is the flagship Spiral Restaurant's multi-Asian cuisine cooked fresh at open stations.
