Peninsula Manila

Top choice in Manila


With rooms that highlight the best of Philippine design, the Peninsula is a Makati veteran that nevertheless appears brand new. The cafe in the soaring lobby has a fine Sunday brunch and is a 24-hour destination for the city’s business elite. A side note: a tank drove through the front doors here in 2007 during a foiled coup attempt.
