Checking in a hotel within Manila to spend your long weekend is becoming a trend these days, especially for families who don’t want the hassle of a road trip and just want to have a relaxing escape. Sofitel is one of my favorite hotels because it transports you to a resort setting — without you having to leave the heart of Manila. It is a great place for families with kids and for couples who just want to escape the stress of everyday business life. Plus, it’s about one hour away from Makati.
THE SOFITEL EXPERIENCE
Once you check in, you’ll be greeted with “Bonjour!” by French-speaking Maria Claras. This is Sofitel’s way of introducing guests to the Filipino-French Cultural Integration experience. 카지노사이트
Don’t forget to check-in in the afternoon, so you can witness the Awesome Manila Sunset! Sofitel has the best comfortable view, and you can relax in the al fresco Sunset Bar.
Make sure to get the rooms with a view of the Swimming Pool and the Manila Sunset.

The classic rooms are the standard rooms in the non-renovated floors 4, 5, and 6.

SPIRAL BUFFET
You can have your dinner in one of the Best Buffets in Manila: Spiral, Sofitel!
“Spiral is a multi-cuisine restaurant with the biggest buffet in town. It has several live cooking stations and boasts the widest array of dishes. At the center of the restaurant is the spiral staircase connected to the main lobby, accented by the spiral art centerpiece.” (see detailed review here: Best Buffets in Manila: Spiral, Sofitel)
We also love Galette, located in the Main Lobby, which offers one of the best chocolate truffles in town. You can buy them per piece.
Kids would love the gingerbread house on display in Sofitel for this Christmas Season.
