*Note: This is 4.5 Star review.
The last time I stayed in Go Hotels was back in 2010 at their Mandaluyong branch. At that time, I didn't like the room and the location was not convenient for me. When I saw that this branch opened in the middle of Ortigas area, I decided to give Go Hotels another chance.
I must say that, compared to the Mandaluyong branch, they stepped up in terms of customer service! During the week that I reserved, it was the weekend before Christmas and there were heavy rains. I remember that I planned to check-in late because I had a meeting in the afternoon. Unlike other hotels (if you don't appear on time, they give your room away!), they called me to make sure that I was still going to avail the room and wanted to ask if I needed assistance to get to the hotel (amazing!). When I arrived at around 5PM, they had all the papers filled and even a pouch of complimentary toiletries. I signed everything, paid with my card and went straight to my room. Quick and easy!
The room is spacious and comes with a LCD TV. The bed was very comfortable and the pillows were the down-feather kind (so soft!). WiFi comes free with the room and it was steady the whole evening. Best of all, the bathroom is clean and well maintained. There is a no eating policy in the room which is a great idea so that no insects are attracted into the room. If you want to eat, they have a common area near the elevator where you can eat and have drinks from a vending machine.
Robinsons Galleria is just a few steps away. You also are near Megamall, Podium and Shangri-la mall. Don't worry about getting food. There are many food options near the hotel. You can also walk to Sapphire Bloc for a few drinks (go there for the Happy Hour, 4-8PM).
Go Hotel is a good value hotel compared to the other hotels in the area. This is not a "Five Star" hotel but if you need a no-fuss, comfortable place to stay while in Manila, this is the place to be! :) read more
