Manila Grand Opera Hotel is superb inside! I say "inside" because once inside the hotel, you are like transformed from the stressful road activities outside the hotel to the neatness of the inside of the hotel. Amenities associated with 5-star hotels (casino, pool, restaurants, coffee shops, conference rooms) are available. The downside is its location: it is located along the... More

Good value. Excellent service with nice rooms. Surprised to see such a nice hotel located in downtown china town area. Area didn't bother me, I rather enjoyed it. I am adventurous and enjoying exploring new areas. Would not be for everybody just because of the area. I will stay there again. More

The Maila Grand Opera Hotel is quite a good place to stay in downtown Manila. It's actually located outside the Chinatown area (which is in Binondo district of Manila). The hotel is in Recto-Rizal Avenues area of Sta. Cruz district and, yes, shares its immediate vicinity with some kind of Manila's unpleasantries. The hotel's ambiance is quite good, though, from...

The Grand Opera Hotel is a difficult property to evaluate. It's not the property itself; it's the area. Unbelievably bad area; and I've been all over the planet and have seen some bad areas. Pickpockets, bagslashers, scammers, and in teams; these all await you just out the front door. But to rate the property itself, one must just rate the... More

This review echoes that of others whose comments are along the lines of "somewhat satisfied" and "good enough". The Grand Opera comes close in so many ways and then fails to deliver. My wife and I have just returned from breakfast, which is included in the price but rates only as adequate. There is unlimited brewed coffee from a 40... More

We have celebrated our company Christmas party at this hotel for 2 years in a row already. The food is really great, superb ambiance and the service is terrific! We also checked in one of their rooms and it's really clean and nice. We highly recommend this hotel. More

It is quite a surprise to find this 5 star hotel in the Chinatown of Manila: this is a very busy part of the city where you rather expect noisy surroundings, lots of street garbage and traffic jams. A notable advantage is that the hotel is right on the side of the Doroteo LRT line 1 station. The hotel has... More

Manila Grand Opera Hotel sits right next to LRT D.Jose station which links you to MRT1 or a few walk across the street and you're in LRT 2 Recto Station which can take you to Araneta and other major malls in the Metro. If you love riding the train then this hotel is for you. Be ready to rub shoulders... More
