“The very first 5-star hotel in the Philippines, The Manila Hotel opened its doors in 1912. It has since played host to the likes of Ernest Hemingway, John Wayne & the Beatles. A glorious grand dame with opulent interiors, waterfront views & big event spaces — including the elegant Champagne Room.”
