    I can't think of any drawbacks except for the rather slow Internet connection in our room. Other than that, I was satisfied with our stay.

    The hotel is well maintained, the food was amazing, and the staff was accommodating. Thank you!

    The faucet in the sink is old. And the shower as well.

    Beds and pillows are very comfortable. I like when the air-conditioned is not turned off even if nobody in the room.

    The swimming pool cascades were not operational when we were there due to it being closed off for safety reasons, no doubt for future repairs to be carried out. Not having a separate queue at the reception desk for checking- out as check- in and check- out were in the same queue taking longer to get attended to. There was an additional holding charge on my credit card of a significant amount and was informed it would be paid back to me, but still pending after nearly a week now and not sure it will be returned to my credit card or not.

    Was captivated by the sheer size of the building from the outside while the hotel lobby with all its amazing historical pictorial murals and pictures and ground floor shopping areas were a nice tribute to the hotel as well. The swimming pool and gym were great as well.

    Bad start but a pleasant stay eventually

    Staff can be very helpful, but ocassionally the check-in staff can be a bit short and dismissive. I sent an email to the Hotel informing them that my fiance would be arriving around three hours before me and that they should let her into the room. She ended up having to explain all sorts of things to the check-in staff to be able to get into the room when she arrived. Then they gave her a lower grade room. When I arrived the young lady on the front desk resolved the issue very quickly, but as I had been travelling for 26 hours I was a but frustrated and annoyed to say the least.

    Rooms are very clean and always well presented. The Italian Restaurant La Gondola is very good, the staff are excellent and always polite and professional. Their food is always well presented and they do theoir best to make the food as authentic as possible. Their Pizzas are particularly good as are the desserts.

    Having to pay for breakfast whilst it could have been included with the room booking

    I had to pay for breakfast separately since I didn’t book directly with the hotel but used booking.com. It was a shame!

    There were only 2 people on board during checkout time. So many people in the queue. They should separate check out from check in. Not fair to wait half an hour just to surrender key cards. Someone should be dedicated to accept key cards. Other hotels just have guests drop off cards if they have prepaid and no other charges, but Waterfront charges 150 pesos for a lost key card, hence, the need to wait in line just to return them.

    Friendly and helpful staff, 24-hour gym, clean swimming pool, free shuttle to Ayala Center, walking distance to IT Park

    Not much just needing a good Reno as the hotel is getting out dated.

    Casino. Perhaps needing a good revamp as the hotel casino is looking dated.
