Beautiful hotel, wonderful staff. The only negative is the hotel is under major construction and we were unable to access the rooftop bar/area, pool & courtyard due to maintenance. Will be lovely once it’s completed though.

Room was a bit on small side, no plug sockets at bedside , as with luggage not enough room to open up cases, breakfast was very disappointing, no black tea, no juices, not enough fruit choices, i would have liked, sausages , grilled tomatoes, beans etc. Maybe ok for the locals, hotel is in good location and popular. But not for us sorry.

The pictures online DO NOT accurately represent the cleanliness or quality of the hotel. This hotel is very dayed and tired looking.

The breakfast buffet is terrible, items do not get properly replenished, the selection is substandard, the quality of the food leaves much to be desired.

Looks great from the outside and as you enter reception . Staff are mostly friendly and courteous. Upstairs in the corridors and rooms the hotel is in a bit of a tired state and there are obviously major problems with the roof as there is widespread evidence of ongoing water damage . We stayed here twice - first time for 2 nights was fine but the second occasion , following an apparent upgrade , the room was worse and air con inoperative . Safes in the rooms do not work and you have to specifically request a working version to be brought to your room if you require one (Same story with the mini fridge ). We went to great trouble to organise their early takeaway breakfast as we had an early flight but it seemed to be forgotten about and we had to wait for 20 minutes for it to appear.. It has great potential but is definitely a work in progress…

Not only that, the safe was broken.. they brought in a new one which wasn’t then secured so also unfit for purpose.

I have stayed several places worldwide at all scales and levels and would put this in the average category. Its a 'palatial' type building but there are a lot of shortcomings, including arrival customer service i was asked to give my id and then just take a seat no welcome or anything else was said. I was then just sitting there for around 5mins. Secondly the bedroom was average condition the toilet did not work properly as it was not refilling, i called customer service and they sent a repair person they did the snake it just flushed out then but the issue continued i ended up refilling with the bidet hose each time. Lastly there was no selections for a vegetarian (no eggs,no fish) breakfast. They ended up customising something for me which was nice of them too which was noodles and veg, unfortunately it was prob cooked in a pan using fish and there was a taste of that within the noodles. I did not raise it though as they had gone out their way to make it in the first place.

Excellent service/staff and great value for money!

Overall it was a great hotel, incredible staff and service. Room was good with efficient AC and comfortable nice bedding. The breakfast was very nice and the Chinese restaurant in hotel was good.

Overall it was still a great stay especially for the price. I would definitely stay again! (I visited 2 other hotels during my stay for work events and this was by far best value for money and location.)

Only real issue was they were having water issues and doing construction during this time, so water went out one day and lot of water leaks on marble floors each day, but they were trying to stay on top of it, they provided notice of the issue.

I recently stayed at the Rizal Park Hotel in Manila with my mom and her friends. The location is fantastic, right next to Rizal Park and close to Intramuros. The property has a beautiful colonial style with grand entrances and spacious areas. The swimming pool offers a nice view of the harbor.

Rooms are comfortable but a bit run down, and the staff is very friendly.

The food is good, though the selection is somewhat limited. Overall, it's a great spot for a short stay in Manila if you appreciate historical charm and a prime location.

3 star hotel 4 star service. First time Manila, easy ride from Airport.

Glad to see lots of family come to hotel restaurant for Mother's Day.

Area reminds me of Chicago. Hotel is situated quietly away from tourist areas. Near national park, walking distance thru downtown to Robinson mall and easy ride to intramuros.

Property has full time outdoor security and staff. Around corner from police station and very nice looking children's museum.

Fairly large property, wish there was walking or garden space on property. As surrounding area to see ocean and aquarium is less than desirable.

Great customer service made the hotel very pleasant stay. Always staff to open door, help with baggage and was greeted each passing. Front desk was helpful/ accommodating and confident. Restaurant server staff was very nice and professional and well trained.

Kind of sad that pool was being serviced. But ended up just enjoying room and walking up / down hallways/ stairwell. It felt good to come back to hotel from touring.

Room seemed outdated at first, refrigerator was taken out and curtains were kind of hard to open/close.

Actually room, bedding, lighting, closet/ luggage space/ desk and shower room are of nice quality and charm.

Not pricey for casual but classy quality.

We had a pleasant stay. This is an older hotel but beautiful and maintained very well. The location is ok, not walkable to many restaurants as you have to cross a very busy street with much traffic and rude Filipina drivers.
The breakfast buffet had a good selection of Asian food. It would have have been very good but the buffet items were not kept warm. The items were on warmers but they werent kept on.
At checkout we were held up by the front desk as they placed no priority with providing our room check. We presented at front desk for checkout, but the attendant took our room number but didnt call for our room to be checked. We waited but finally i approached again and told him our taxi was arriving. We waited an extra 10 minutes.

I recommend the Rizal Park Hotel

A beautiful old building brought back to life. The structure is the old Army Navy Club from 1913. The marble floors, the chandeliers, the ceilings and wood work, you just don’t see this type of work today. It is a maintenance nightmare I am sure. The staff could not have been more polite and helpful. Food was so so, but the service was outstanding. A very affordable option.

Could be an amazing hotel again.

I have stayed for 3 nights . On first impressions the hotel looks fantastic. Lovely warm welcome. Beautiful reception. . My room was very nice . . Nice view of the bay. Room furnishings very warn. Wardrobe doors difficult to open as off the track . Safe did not work. New one was brought to the room . Obviously not bolted down . You received lots of toiletries toothbrushes and vanity kit. Room has bottles of water , kettle coffee and an ironing board. Hotel has a swimming pool on the roof . Beautiful views and sunsets. Pool area real needs some maintenance lots and lots of tiles missing off the pool itself. Be careful some sharp edges. . You can tell the hotel has been top end . It's just a little worn now.
Breakfast was ok . Sitting looking around the breakfast hall again it needs a good clean . Lots of empty spaces that are dirty . Coffee is shocking . I did tell the host as I left . Breakfast possibly what was left over the night before as we had things like carbonara for breakfast . Breakfast staff so lovely. Again sitting observing. Kitchen staff leaning over and just eating from the food display . Almost all of them on mobile phones then touching food . One guy sneezed in to his hands . Just wiped them down his apron. Thankfully id eaten at that point . I only paid £80 per night but for the Philippines that's a fair bit . All in all great location. Few mins walk from parks and attractions. Can be noisy on weekends as you are next to ocean park. Live bands playing.

Lovely hotel in a historic building

Had an excellent stay at the Rizal Park Hotel. It’s set in the old Manila Army and Navy Club, so the building was steeped in history, making the stay very interesting

The rooms were lush, clean and bed was comfortable. The staff went out of their way to cater to our needs and were very flexible when it came to checking in and out.

Walking distance to the hotel were several areas of interest such as the Rizal Memorial Park and a few museums so there were plenty of things to do as a tourist there.

I would definitely stay again

This is a beautiful hotel and close to historical places, churches and restaurants. However, the following concers should be addressed by management:
- the a/c in the room cannot be adjusted, it's too cold so we have to turn it off.
- there are very disturbing noises as late as 2am making it difficult to sleep
- there are no napkins in the restaurant and when requested you are given hand wipes
- they have to check your room before they clear you to check out, very disrespectful practice, they assume you're stealing something.
- prices at restaurant are outrageously high while food is not good
I will never go back to this hotel.

Poor maintenance outweigh the charm of this place

Just wanted a place to spend the night after a tiring visit to the areas of my alma mater. Check in was smooth. Front staff were nice. Hotel facade didn’t disappoint. But immediately after entering elevator, i can sense the oldness of building. Many spots on walls that could have been cleaned. Baseboard rotting. I accidentally walked past my room and horrified with staircase that’s full of molds /mildew on the wall. The walls of my room have signs of molds/mildew as well. The whole family was tired and i had no energy to fight. Our bathroom was well supplied. But our shower was wiggly. There’s a screw missing. We went to visit the pool area the next day for picture. Very far from pictures published in website. Lots of missing tiles. Breakfast buffet had a good selection. Weird that there’s no available milk even after requesting for a little bit “from the back”. I thought PHP 2k per head is a bit pricey. Then hotel management needs to improve cleanliness of the place. I just haven’t gotten the chance to reach out to my fraternity brods and friends in power. It is at a level of unsafe for public. DOH needs to visit the place.

We stayed here for one night so that we wouldn't have to fight traffic the day of my fiance's Embassy Interview. It is SUPER CONVENIENT. The US Embassy is just around the corner. The only other close hotel is the Bayview, across the street. This appears to be an older hotel. It is nice, if you don't look up in some of the hallways ... We didn't have a view, so I cannot speak to that. The people were nice. They had a huge tree up for the Christmas holiday. Small room, but clean and had hot water with a nice shower. All-in-all, it fit our needs. Thank you !!

Poor management of quality standards to hotel

Hôtel marketed on the lobby only. However quality of hotel is extremely poor for a 4* hotel which culminated on a wasted three nights:
- Coffee machine broken (previous review 5 months ago still broken). Which 4* hotel cannot make a Cappuchino? To top it coffee is not with milk but sachets of creamer. Even airlines provide milk!
- Hotel restaurant did not accept credit card and we could not add the food bill to the room. Which 4* hotel does this?
- Breakfast is quantity over quality. Breakfast is cold so don’t expect noodles/rice/meat/fish/veg to seem cooked. Weirdly no selection of desserts in the buffet breakfast. Nasty smell in the third morning
- Corridor walking up to the room had a gaping hole
- As a tourist to get about (not hotels fault however) you’ll be lucky to get a grab/taxi especially during rush hour due to Manila traffic. This reinforces the requirement to ensure the hotel is to the quality standard expected as tourists if taxi not possible we were isolated in a hotel which was challenging to say the least especially within limited eateries and coffee places nearby.
- Poorly maintained room corridors, room, back out door areas and restaurant that does not meet the maintenance invested in the lobby area. The back area connected to the lobby is not routinely cleaned. Even if staff see there are cans/cups that could be taken away to ease the appearance, there was no collective responsibility to ensure a clean environment.

Note that staff were friendly.
