    The lights and colors at the sky deck

    This sky deck offers arguably one of the best views of Manila, among them the iconic City Hall clock tower and the Manila Cathedral. It's great to stay here in the late afternoon on a clear day, when the city is awash in a golden glow, and also in the evening, when you see the city lights. During our dinner here, we even saw fireworks! Since we were checked in at the Bayleaf, we woke up early to catch the sunrise here. It was a cloudy day, though, so we didn't get to see much, but I imagine it must be perfect on a summer day. The nice thing about this is even people who are not guests of the hotel can visit. So those who just want to see Manila from above can do so here while having dinner or drinks. The food is nice - we shared a pizza here, but it was really the view that sold us. The colorful umbrellas are also a nice touch.

    Holy moley now THAT'S a view

    Oh sweet Jesus, the view. THE VIEW. Skydeck Lounge is an upscale bar lounge located at the Bayleaf hotel in Intramuros. It possibly has one of the best views in the entire metropolis, and since the building is in the middle of a heritage area, you know they'll have this view for a long, LONG time. The food is pretty good too, to be fair. Their Beef Salpicao is one of the best I've ever had, their Kesong Puti dip was savory and flavorful, and their Kare-Kare was both hearty and superb. But really, the main selling point of this lounge is that brilliant view. Come at night, so you can enjoy the night breeze while you dine with a special someone. Imagine yourself whispering sweet nothings at your partner's ear while sipping some wine and admiring the view. Unbeatable.

    Rooftop bars in the city are few and far between. But recently, there has been a number popping up around the metro and one of those bars/restaurants with the best 360-degree view is the Sky Deck View Bar at The Bay Leaf inside the walled city of Intramuros. Without a doubt, an expansive view of Old Manila, with its historic buildings is hard to beat. On one end, you'll see the recently refurbished National Museum in all its resplendent glory. Close by is the magnificent Manila Post Office. With a turn of your head, the sprawling and well-kept Club Intramuros Golf Course will meet your gaze. With hands perched on the railings of the sky deck, one can't help but remember how beautiful this city really is. Since it's a bar, the place also serves a list of the usual cocktails and a food menu with a Filipino twist. The best time to visit the place would be thirty minutes before sundown, when the air is cool and the sun isn't so oppressive, just right about the time when day turns into dusk.

Interiors are beautiful and cozy. The leather chairs, central bar, and decor take you to another world where you can enjoy your classic cocktail, scotch, or wine in utter opulence. The staff are always efficient and helpful when serving and suggesting drinks if you are feeling a little adventurous. Try the Negroni 1919 or the Espresso Martini. Good selection of wines too and a decent repertoire of Single Malts (for a price!). Bar chow is available too if you feel like you need more than the refillable snacks they serve you. It's also the perfect place to have an intimate conversation or a casual meeting. Cigar smokers and smokers alike will enjoy the fact that you can smoke here (sorry non-smokers!). Price points are expensive compared to your average bars or speakeasies but you're at The Peninsula after all. The overall feel is nostalgic, classic, and definitely for those who enjoy high quality cocktails and drinks in a place that makes you feel like you're transported to a bar in Cuba with different world music playing in the background.

While it isn't the highest…read morevantage point in the area, it still offers a great perspective of the neighborhood, with particularly nice views of the illuminated Rockwell buildings and the distant BGC skyline. The atmosphere is definitely a vibe--chill and social. Music starts up later in the evening (around 9 PM, I believe), which helps transition the mood as night falls. We visited fairly early and enjoyed the shift when the music began. However, one interaction notably dampened the experience. A brief, joking conversation with a bouncer took an unexpectedly dark turn. When I lightheartedly asked if anyone had ever tripped on the spiral staircase, he replied, "Only if I throw them off." Joking or not, for someone responsible for patron safety, this felt in poor taste and sounds like he wants to look or sound intimidating. It's a remark that unfortunately sticks with you. And it was of bad taste. Overall, Z Roof Deck has much to offer in terms of views and ambiance, but attention to staff training and customer interaction would elevate it from a good spot to a great one. 2 star from poor choice of words from the security at the roof deck. You want to be funny? Tell a better wholesome joke.

The only drawback coming here is that you need to buy a bracelet and put a minimum amount 300 pesos per person but if you choose your poison correctly it can get you 2 drinks or 3 beers :)

I figured no problem, since there was nothing to eat in the immediate area I figured ok, how often am I here anyways? I was ready to bite the bullet with the more expensive bill as it was a hotel, but figured at least I can look forward to a good meal. I was shown some hospitality by the manager and lead to my table, I checked the menu and true enough the price tags were a little crazy, but oh well. I was in the mood for adobo and fries, so I ordered those. It took awhile but finally it came. The fries was in a nice metal basket and was seasoned well, crunchy but fluffy on the inside. Pretty standard. The adobo came in two plates, one for the rice and the atsara (a side dish of pickled vegetables I believe) and then the pork and chicken adobo with egg and a lot of spring onion or such vegetable covering the top. The meat was admittedly soft and the sauce was nice and velvety, but that was all. The taste was very average, it was neither good nor bad, nothing noteworthy, and overall our home cooking would be better, so I was quite disappointed. The garlic rice was in between garlic rice and plain rice, it had hint of garlic but overall almost negligible. Real shame, it was on the edge of greatness, but could barely be saved by the adobo sauce. As the bill arrived, it reached quite an amount, but the server named Elle, asked if I was checked in as it would give me a much needed 20% discount, I thought for a second and realized a friend is checked in, maybe that would work? For sure Elle saw I was considering something but as she mentioned it had to be me, I did not insist and said no. After considering it again I call another waiter and inquire if it was my friend's room, he says: "Maybe sir, but how will she sign it?" after a second of thought he continues "Maybe you can just note her name and room number sir. Will ask." Ok worth asking and checking. Elle returns and says sorry sir I already had this cleared as I asked you if you were checked in. I responded, sorry I was not clear about it and figured my friend would work. She mentions but she must be here to sign, I responded that the other waiter gave me another option. Overall I reluctantly did not insist and just said, "Ok no problem, but please be clear about your questions next time, as it is such a waste." This is where she becomes very rude. She immediately says, "I did tell you." but in Filipino. I froze in place and looked at her, surprised that she had to have the last word and the tone she took was beyond disrespectful. Normally I have long patience for waiters as I realize it may have been a long day, perhaps they are tired maybe it is an off day. Who knows, I try to respect them and I am very courteous along with my generous tips, I always thought it was a give and take sort of relationship. But for Elle, she works in one of the most expensive and supposedly respected hotels in Manila, and she had this attitude. I'm sorry but I need to hold you to higher standards since you all have the audacity to charge me so much for your vaguely ok adobo (I wouldn't mind paying as much if it was actually drop dead delicious, but alas it was not). I called for her manager and complained, the same manager who sat me down unfortunately got an earful from me as her staff was quite rude, she offered a discount, but I declined saying I can afford the meal, but I expected better from you and your staff given that the Manila Hotel used to stand for quality, but now it is trash. And on top of that, don't think I did not notice the dead cockroach quietly sitting under another patron's seat my full meal. Jeez... Manila Hotel, what happened? I cringe at the idea of ever coming back and hope you all do better.
