The variety of hotels available throughout the Philippines is quite frankly staggering, and on the whole they are great value. The most popular destinations, Manila and Cebu both have plenty of choice when it comes down to places to stay:
In Manila, popular choices are the 4* Trader's Hotel, which is a good choice for shopping, and is located right in the city centre on Roxas Boulevard. A higher standard of accommodation can be found at the luxurious 5* Mandarin Oriental Hotel, a beautiful hotel with great facilities that has rates as low as £30 per person per night.
In Cebu, two of the best choices are the 3* Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort, which has a splendid location right on the beach, and also the stunning 5* Shangri La Mactan Island Resort, which marries the highest levels of service with stunning surroundings to give you a great place to spend a special holiday.
