Great property, great location, really great service - of course it is, it's a Peninsula - all to be expected and they deliver, but there is one thing that would keep me from coming back and that's the music. It's everywhere and it's all too loud to actually enjoy the place. After a recent week's stay I was driven out... More

This is a very wonderful hotel in the middle of Makati. The hotel is beautiful and the service is great. We had afternoon tea in the lobby, which was packed at all hours of the day. It was nice to be serenaded by a string ensemble up in the balcony. The pool area is also very nice and relaxing, but... More

This hotel would have been better if they won't allow Prostitutes to wait for their clients in the lobby and while waiting would still be in the look-out for future customers. My husband just went down to get some change from the front desk and guess what, he was handed some pictures,home address,phone number and spoke to a prostitute waiting... More

I have stayed at this hotel several times over the years and was pleasantly surprised when the desk recalled my old address from previous booking. The room I had was very good. Well maintained and clean, with first class fixtures, such as an all-marble bathroom with separate walk-in shower. The wifi connection was included in the room rate and worked... More

We split our time on this trip between the Pen and Sofitel. Both were lovely. The Pen is a bit fancier and has slightly better service. Also closer to the various shopping opportunities in Makati and Greenbelt. However, I have to say that if you want to lounge by the pool the Sofitel was better for that as hard to... More

I've been here many times over the years business and not. Stayed a handfull of times and meetings plenty more. This time I noticed some improvements. Decor upgraded. The room was much cleaner as usually we had to call for mold removal. The food options now have healthy choices to include vegetarian and vegan, loved that. The staff were really... More
