Hotels in Manila That Offer Exceptional Filipino Hospitality

So this is what urban hospitality looks and feels like.

You can’t talk about the Philippines without mentioning adobo, jeepneys or beaches. Similarly, you can’t talk about Filipinos without saying the words “hospitable” or “hospitality”, especially when you’re in one of the country’s remote provinces. Nonetheless, staying in its fast-paced capital can also reward you with the same warm-hearted and courteous people — if you end up checking in to one of these hotels in Manila, that is.

3. Kabayan Hotel

Kabayan Hotel (The Tagalog word Kabayan translates to “fellow countryman”) was built on the idea of giving Overseas Filipino Workers and those visiting from the province a home away from home. However, international travellers are also very much welcome at this hotel in Manila. It happens to be just 20 minutes away from the Ninoy Aquino International Airport — convenient!

The rooms range from a dormitory type to a team room, and the hotel is expected to add a few more hundred to meet its growing market. The staff are genuinely caring and enthusiastic, which gives you a hint of the kind of reception you’ll get should you decide to explore the rest of the country. Oh, remember to try their iconic Halo-halo (Filipino crushed ice dessert)!
