T'was such an amazing and unforgettable stay at this Hotel. The whole family enjoyed their full amenities and all the staffs are very friendly and accommodating all throughout our stay. We had the Aqua Family Room and it was so relaxing and mesmerizing seeing fishes in their aquarium wall. All the toiletries are well-served and the room service was great too. What's also best in our stay is that we got the free aqua park passes on our first day, and the fish spa is super nice experience too. I might say that this hotel is Highly recommended to stay here for your next travel.

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel! It’s a great place to stay when visiting Binondo, especially since Ongpin is just within walking distance, making it very convenient for exploring Chinatown and enjoying the local food and shopping. The location is excellent, and the staff were all very nice and accommodating—from the guards to the front desk and everyone we encountered throughout the hotel. We truly appreciated how welcoming and helpful everyone was. Another thing we loved was how fresh and clean the entire hotel felt. The lobby and common areas always smelled fresh, and the whole property was well-maintained and spotless. Overall, we had a very pleasant and comfortable stay. Great location, friendly staff, and a clean and fresh atmosphere. We would definitely consider staying here again on our next Binondo trip!

I absolutely loved my stay here as a first-time guest. celebrated my birthday & the complimentary surprise cake made the occasion even more special! The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and felt luxurious especially the fully functional bathtub, modern toilet seat, and well-maintained bathroom. The staff were warm and accommodating throughout our stay, from reception to the lobby team. The breakfast buffet was one of the best I’ve had. dining area was spacious, food selection was enjoyable. I would love to see addtl options such as bacon, pastries, local kakanin,& hot chocolate. A few minor details could also be improved. The room was cold and comfortable, but some towels looked worn and the carpet had visible stains. These did not significantly affect our stay, but addressing them would elevate the experience further. Overall, it was a wonderful birthday stay, and we will definitely return to try the gym and pool. Thank you for making my celebration memorable! ✨🤍

Our family really enjoyed our stay at Century Park Hotel. The room was surprisingly spacious, and the staff were consistently warm, friendly, and accommodating. The pool area is a major highlight — there is a huge main pool, kids' pool, jacuzzi, and even an Olympic-sized pool. The facilities are well maintained, with a fully functioning shower and locker room, which made the pool experience even more convenient. Breakfast was also great, with a good variety of choices. The location is convenient, especially if you're visiting the PICC and nearby areas. A couple of minor concerns: there aren't many restaurants immediately around the hotel, so you need to walk a little or take a short ride to get more dining options. Also, the TV isn't a smart TV, which feels a little unexpected for a hotel nowadays. Overall, though, I would definitely consider staying here again. The spacious room, friendly service, excellent pool facilities, and breakfast make it a very good-value hotel.

Hotel is perfect if you have business in Manila and you need somewhere to stay that is accessible and decent for the price point. Staff is great, room is impeccably clean, and everything in the room is functional. One downside is that during the rainy season, the entrance to the hotel gets flooded and it takes a while to subside. It makes entering the hotel a bit difficult. This needs improvement though it’s probably the LGU that’s responsible for fixing the drainage in the street. Will def stay here again if I have business in Manila.

What to know before visiting Manila

Quick snapshot of Manila and what draws visitors

Manila is a lively urban gateway where bookings cluster around family-friendly attractions and cultural experiences — zoos & aquariums, museums, attraction passes and water parks lead the way. Demand rises and falls through the year, with clear busy spells that shape when places feel most crowded.

Best times to visit for crowds and prices

According to Klook booking data, May is the peak month for demand while October sees the weakest booking levels. Prices drift through the year: Klook data shows January tending to be the priciest month and June typically the cheapest. Travellers seeking lower prices and smaller crowds will find better value and calmer visits in June and October, while those after peak-season atmosphere should aim for May. In general, demand and prices only sometimes move together here — the single busiest month (May) does not perfectly match the priciest month (January), so you can sometimes avoid the very highest prices while still enjoying lively city energy.

Tips for travellers from Hong Kong

Most travellers from Hong Kong typically finalise bookings only a day or two before travel, so Manila suits a relatively spontaneous trip. If you’re travelling in the peak month of May, consider locking in popular family-friendly experiences a few days earlier to secure preferred times. Use Klook to compare timed-entry options and attraction passes in advance so you can plan a smooth, flexible itinerary.
