The staff and manager at The Fairmont, Manila, Ms Kathleen Yap, stand out as phenomenal. I arrived very early to Manila after an 11 hour flight and they were kind enough to offer me at 10:00 am check- in. As I had a meeting I could not accept and so they escorted me to the Spa to change and get ready. I returned in the evening but there was no hot water in the room but I was too exhausted to inform the hotel staff. I had to leave at 4:30 am and still there was no hot water. When I called the front desk at 3:20 am to report that, the front desk offered me to move to another room but I had no time. They called again to let me know that I didn’t need to move but can use another room two doors down to shower which I did. I went to check out and the manager herself with the front desk staff were waiting for me with breakfast to go. I had not selected breakfast option before. Not only she had several options ready for me, she had 4 different drinks because she wasn’t sure about my preference. She has tea, hot chocolate, coffee, juice and water. I think she went above and beyond. Though hot water can be found in almost every hotel, such consideration and attention to details and graciousness are hard to find let alone at 4:00 am by the manager. I will definitely choose this hotel again if or when I come back to Manila.

Fairmont is a lovely hotel,staff and personnel are friendly,personable and knowledgeable. Close to restaurants and shopping centers. We stayed for 3 nights on our first week left for the islands and came back to stay for another 3 nights ,my only complaint and concern is - we were in 631 the 625 consecutively , When you come out of the elevator on the 6th floor the intense musty / moldy odor hits you . Smells sour and tried to cover it up with some fragrance that makes the whole place smell bad . The second time we came back ,our room 625 is also musty /moldy smell . Pls .fix the issue . Thank you .

Outstanding for service, cleanliness, hospitality
Truly amazing experience. The staff, especially Alex at the front desk, went over and nice to smite we were happy. I traveled with my son and we were able to have rooms right next to each other. Every detail was perfect. When we needed to hire car service, we had the option of using one provided by the hotel with a choice of cars and professional, respectful and knowledgeable chauffeurs. The hotel and everything associated with it was extremely clean and comfortable. You are treated like royalty, I usually stay in five-star hotels and this is the second time I have chosen to stay at the Fairmont Makati this year. I am already planning my next stay.

Great check in process. All staff are kind, nice, willing to help anytime (they expect a tip or course, which all guest should do), the service and hospitality is just top notch overall. Hotel still got the luxurious feel but definitely had seen its better days. Need some updating in rooms and common areas. Carpeting is nearing its lifetime end as well. Pool is nice but small and cold. Great underground access to Landmark which is connected either to Greenbelt on left or Glorietta on right. So if shopping and dining is part of your itinerary, this hotel can be a good option.

Hotel location and staff are excellent. Breakfast service is great. Car pick-up/drop off waiting area is cramped. Lobby for fairmont guests are small and actually a cafe instead of where guests can comfortably wait. Laundry service is priced by pieces and unreasonably expensive.

Fairmont makati is located in the center of where we wanted to be during our stay in Metro Manila and I did not know anything about it before we stayed. Exceeded expectations on everything from the quiet luxe Le LABO products in the bathroom to the high quality breakfast. Definitely recommended for all the balikbayans who want to spend time in the best part of Manila.

Quiet, safe and convenient property right next to Greenbelt. Having stayed at various Fairmont properties around the world, this one unfortunately didn’t meet our expectations. Front desk staff were not friendly and our room had an issue with the emergency light and would not shut off all night which impacted our sleep. Very good dining options and Grab-friendly.
