City Garden Hotel Makati (Makati, Philippines)

City Garden Hotel Makati is surrounded by many malls - Ayala Centre, Glorietta Malls, The Link Carpark and more. Guests noted that within these shopping malls are various restaurants ranging from budget fast food chains to luxurious five-star dining options.

Many guests expressed that this hotel is centrally located! The train station is a five-minute walk away, which can take you to many key locations in the country's National Capital Region. Buses are around the area, and as well as cabs that can be hired for the whole day.

Most of the guests who stayed here mentioned that the highlight of their stay was dining on the hotel's rooftop. The rooftop restaurant serves very good food, and offers a wide selection of meals. Moreover, you get to enjoy a fantastic view of the city.

Traffic noise is to be expected, since the hotel is located at the heart of Makati Avenue, in the middle of a busy intersection. Just make sure ask for a pair of earplugs in advance. Many of the guests managed to have a comfortable sleep here though, so you need not to worry much.

There are few negative comments about the rooms of the hotel, such as some smell of smoke even when they are branded as non-smoking. Some guests commented that the rooms they got were dark and dingy.

Some of the guests were a bit annoyed that a hotel of this size, with more than 20 floors, has only two lifts. Do not be surprised if, when going to the higher floors, you have to wait on the ground floor along with many other guests for the lifts.
