Location: Luneta (Behind Quirino Grand Stand), Manila Bay, Manila, Philippines
My boyfriend and I heard of this amazing hotel with aquarium walls with fishes swimming every now and then and that really captured our interest so we booked to stay there at our 2nd anniversary.
It’s Hotel H2O! Hotel H2O is the first aquarium - themed integrated resort hotel in the Philippines. A four star hotel located in Manila Ocean Park. Easy to locate since it’s really inside MOP, one of the famous tourist attractions in Metro Manila.
We checked in there at a Sunday. At first, we were given a room that wasn’t yet cleaned we went back to the lobby and they immediately changed our room. Their aqua room was small but it was perfect, our wall is an aquarium full of lovely fish which complimented all.
The bed is very comfortable and big and the bathroom on the aqua room has a shower with complete toiletries (everything you need actually), no bath tub though. Rooms also LCD tv and a free wifi access which was really fast.
We really enjoyed our stay there, we can visit Ocean Park anytime and the staff were really very accomodating. We requested to have the food we brought reheat and they gladly did all our requests. I just love looking at the fishes on our wall everytime :)
Our reservation included a buffet breakfast and it was sumptuous! The breakfast was at Makan Makan and it was really superb, many choices from different countries’ cuisine. One of the best buffet breakfast I had!
You can also have breakfast outside the restaurant where there is a great view of the Manila Bay. Some of the rooms in this hotel don’t have aquariums, thus having bay view (Manila Bay) or park view (Luneta Park).
We would love to go back to this hotel. Very relaxing, should try other types of room. But I guess still nothing beats the nice feeling and uniqueness of the Aqua room.
It’s really a plus that it’s in Manila Ocean Park, while here you can grab the chance to visit Oceanarium since it’s just an elevator away. Also try the Mega 4D rider at the first floor of Ocean Park. Sight seeing at Luneta park is also a must and Mall of Asia is just a taxi ride away.
