Excellent good service from security and housekeeping

Umm Saudi Arabia

I had an amazing stay at Aruga! I travelled alone and felt safe the whole time at this property. The place is close to grocery stores, mall and is very central. The breakfast food was amazing at Rocky's and staff was great. The staff at Aruga from front desk, door men, cleaners, each and every one of them was very professional, helpful and went out of their way to make my stay exceptional. I very highly recommend this place and will be staying here again.

Raeann Canada

Very comfortable for longer stays, with nicely equipped rooms. Terrifically convenient. Just outside the crowded part of Makati and more manageable than BGC. Walking distance to lots of restaurants around Rockwell and the amenities of the elegant and well designed Power Plant mall. The bellhops and security staff are extremely friendly and helpful.

Anna United States of America

Cleanliness, general aesthetic, comfortability, location, staff…I could go on. I love this place!

The staff was friendly and helpful. They are always smiling and they respond to queries/requests quite quickly.
