When you go into the hotel, and up into the rooms area, you realize that this hotel has been around for a long time! And when you stop to think about it.. you realize that 50 years ago, this may have been one of the hottest hotels in the area... the kind famous people would choose. Of course, with the advent of high-rise hotels, La Corona dropped into obscurity. And that makes the stay a little fun, discovering a little bit of the past. If you just need to stay in the area for a few days, and feel slightly adventurous, I recommend this hotel completely. Hallways and rooms are a little smaller that we are used to with newer hotels, but the owners keep everything up very nicely. I was happy with our rooms, and the staff may have been the friendliest staff overall from all the hotels I've used in Manila. When you, be sure to use the elevator at least once, even if you don't really need to!

I have stayed here a number of times. Seems to be improving with each visit. Staff has always been attentive, and the rooms clean. Neighborhood is typical downtown Asian, lots of shopping and things for the traveler to see.Close to varied nightlife. A small park on the end of the street offers outside chess games with the locals,if you are so inclined. AC has always worked,if the city is not in a brownout. Breakfast Buffet nice variety local and standard choices.Restaurant is above average for the pricing. I would recommend for an experienced traveler esp one on a budget. Prob not a good location for children.

expat and stayed in many manilaf hotels anila. I was attracted to this hotel due to its central location in ermita and good room rates.But in arriving (multiple stays)always found bate- switch tactics, inconsistent standards of service, cleanliness, always remodeling and very noisy both inside and outside, lock of hot water or no water,old elevator that not always working and forced unsafe stairway usage (lack handrails). Also uses Best Western in name but affiliated or independent so no recourse. DO NOT USE.
