1. Check in and check out were both fast and easy. It took no more than 5 minutes. 2. Our room included free use of facilities during stay: pool (max of 2 adults and all kids aged 12 and below) at the 6th Floor, and gym at the 7th Floor. I don't know how much they charge per additional person to use the pool. They provide towels by the way, so that's a plus since you don't have to carry the ones from the room. 3. Location is accessible by foot. It's a 15 to 20-min walk, as reference, from Buendia MRT station should you ever decided to give it a try. 4. Area is near several must-try restaurants in Poblacion; inclusive of their sister-company Filling Station. 5. Room appeared exactly how it is in pictures. The bed is comfortable. Sheets, towels, pillow cases and bathrobes all smelled clean.

Amazing Staff. Very clean rooms, and location close to everything. Grab picks up right at the front of the hotel making it super convenient to get around to places beyond those you just want to walk to. Many restaurants and malls nearby. Beautiful pool. We stayed in the Loft apartment the first time and the deluxe rooms the second time. Will stay again-for sure! In hotel coffee spot excellent, and the hotel's restaurant Tia Abuela's also served fabulous food!!! The staff also went out of their way to make my daughter's birthday extra special. Went down for our usual coffee in the morning and they all came out with a SURPRISE birthday cake and sang "HAPPY BIRTHDAY". Super Cool!

It's really a wonderful place to stay in the heart of Makati that gives off old Filipino style vibes from their lobby to their restaurant upstairs. Everyone was very nice in accommodating a parking spot for us as well as a special request for my guest! The A/C works well, the beds are soft and clean. The bathroom is well stocked but the bathrobes were a bit snug LOL The views of the room that we got was SPECTACULAR! Ceiling to floor, almost 180 degrees view from Rockwell, BGC, and Makati!

I like the price, the friendliness of the staffs and the amenities. It is super close to restaurants, Starbucks, money changer, 7-eleven, several malls and the heart of Makati City. HOWEVER, I did not know that this is the red light district of Makati! So if you're looking for clubs and "ladies displaying their assets" in the evening, this is the perfect spot for you!

Loved the location. The pool area was fantastic and the jacuzzi was a very nice extra. The staff were extremely friendly and very helpful in all areas of the hotel and restaurant. I will definitely be staying at the 1898 again. The restaurant was a great place to relax and enjoy looking out over Makati. I fully enjoyed my experience at the hotel.

Beautiful colonial style lobby, modern room, great 6th floor outside pool area with a view, free room upgrade for one of the two nights I stayed, comfy beds and peaceful and quiet (on 19th floor at least) even though in the middle of street action on P Burgos St.
