It took about 1hr from the airport by taxi due to heavy traffic jam but the hotel is very close to Recto station on Light Rail Transit (LRT-2). The hotel currently does not provide airport shuttle bus but catching taxi by Grab app at the airport was not an issue. Near the hotel, there is convenience store (Seven eleven) in front of the hotel and donut shop (Mister Donut) is next to the hotel, and in walking distance there were places to eat so it was very convenient. The breakfast buffet had variety of selections and it was tasty. Also, the food at the restaurant at the hotel was tasty too.

The check-in took some time, but they kindly offered some drink as I waited for my check in. Also, they kindly upgraded my room which was great, but the room did not have any window so I was not able to enjoy the view which was a shame. Internet connection was quite stable but disconnected from time to time. They provided voucher for internet connection which should last 24 hrs but it didn't. However, they did provide enough wifi voucher so there was no need to request for additional ones.

Nice big lobby, rooms are very clean, staff are friendly, strong wifi, swimming pool, free parking and their restaurant serves simple yet delicious dishes. If you're in search of a hotel (which by the way has a casino too) that's right in the heart of Old Manila, near Quiapo, Chinatown or Intramuros, then I highly recommend this place. But if you are looking for a high-end, classy area with high-rise buildings, parks, fine dining, huge shopping malls, etc. then you'll be at the wrong place! We stayed there primarily to revisit the iconic places of Old Manila, mostly are within walking distance.

We occupied 2 rooms and sadly, both had no windows. Also, the towels provided are too less, no hand nor face towels, but only 1 bath towel. There are just 2 elevators for the entire hotel that is seemingly very busy and full, so you will have to wait a while for your turn.

Great staff, always super friendly and helpful. organised us taxis etc to make sure we get a good price. Location is great as well. it’s not the typical place where tourists go, we didn’t see any other tourists besides us. But we loved it! Two 7eleven and a supermarket right next to the Hotel, Divisoria Market in walking distance. It’s the old part of Manila, so it will look a bit run down but we loved to experience the actual Manila like locals do

The rooms where okay, fridge and aircon are rather noisy. Also noisy neighbours running down the hallway but that’s not the Hotels fault. Breakfast was okay, not many choices besides rice, eggs, sausage and some fruit.

The staff were lovely and Ray the chef looked after us well, nothing was to much of a problem, lovely Hotel, very surprised at the location it was in but glad we went there, nice pool, free WiFi was a must but not always great, enjoyed the lovely Buffet Breakfast and fruit plus a lovely Blue Lemonade.

Location wise really as didn’t like walking in the streets out side but that’s city life I guess. We had a small window in our room that was covered up as just View overlooking roofs but I didn’t mind as the room looked great, tv wasn’t much use as couldn’t get Netflix or YouTube as internet wasn’t working well so just used our own WiFi and phones for films.

This is my second stay at MGOH and it was just as pleasant as the first time. I think the hotel is great overall, it is located right at Doroteo Jose station so getting around Manila is easy enough, there is a Puregold supermarket across the road and also a laundry shop, the breakfast is always good and the staff are very accommodating, the pool is clean and always attended by a member of staff.

There were roadworks outside the front entrance (still there as of 18/09/22) which made access to the front somewhat difficult especially if taking a taxi, it is possible to enter through the rear where the carpark is located though. (this was not a fault of the hotel but worth noting for prospective bookers.)

Breakfast may not be exactly as in europe but if you arent that picky, you surely get yourself satisfied. What isnt on table, you can order against small payment ( I mean small) , they are happy to help you whatever your heart desires. Breakfast food may sometimes look like what you eat at lunch but that didnt bother us.

One of my favourite hotels in Manila. Friendly staff, great service, good breakfasts. I was pleasantly surprised to get a free pick-up from the airport. The pool is wonderful, a great escape from the chaos and heat of Manila.

Location is a bit awkward, but right next to a train station. The complimentary ride from the airport really helped to solve the location problem.

Property is close to shops which is common in Manila though. Staff were good. Food is ok

Room is not spacious. Surprisingly, the name didn’t meet my standards. I was expecting much from this hotel as its name is “grand opera hotel”.

The staff was excellent take care of any needs that i had. They went out of their way to make you feel comfortable & welcome. I would give them an 11 for service the hotel surprised me for their location as the how well they treated you and take care of every need.

I think the hotel could be improved by upgrading there mattresses very hard and uncountable.

The staff were all lovely! There are a lot of staff to cater for all your needs! The pool & sauna area were great! The breakfast was a Filipino breakfast but a nice selection!

Air Con needs upgrading as it’s very old & noisy! Location is ok with supermarkets opposite but nothing else! No roulette in the casino!
