One of the most eagerly anticipated re-openings this year is Luneta Hotel. After a multimillion peso renovation she is ready to meet the public. Or is she?
We dropped bu the hotel on Manila Day, June 24, as that was the day when we were informed by the hotel staff they would be allowing the public to see their rooms. We were then led to the fourth floor and shown a corner superior room.
It was decent in size and proportion with a high ceiling and carpeted floor. The bed was huge, comfy and ready to sleep in.
A large frosted glass wall separates the bedroom from the bathroom. While the bathtub looked amazing, we wonder if there was any way to get more privacy in the bathroom if you do not want to be seen performing an impromptu burlesque act.
We also noticed that some of the amenities were missing, like the flat screen TV, fridge and bathroom toiletries. The staff assured us that they would be installed later that day.
This made us ask if the hotel is in a position to received guests yet. Their honest answer was no. They are still doing the finishing touches and finalizing the date as to when the hotel will finally open its door to received guests in its 27 guest rooms and suites.
However the staff was kind enough to let us in on the rates they will be charging once they are ready to receive guests:
– Standard (queen size bed) PHP6,500
– Standard (king size bed) PHP7,700
– Superior room PHP8,800
– Deluxe PHP9,900
– Junior Suite PHP10,900
So like the rest of the public we look forward to the day that Luneta Hotel finally open its door and welcome us in.
Once that day comes, dial 875-8921 to 29 to make your reservation.
