Stayed at the Diamond for 4 nights in late Feb 08. Very nice facilities for the price (low $100's US). The rooms are quite nice but make sure you indicate non smoking as in Asia, smoking is quite common in the rooms, restaurants and all public places. Great friendly staff but I found that throughout the service industry in this... more

I chose to stay at the Diamond because it is one of the best reviewed hotels in Manila on this website. After staying there, I can see why it garners such good reviews. It is quite affordable - I got what I thought was an excellent price of the hotel's website and was upgraded to a better room on a... more

I stayed in Diamond Hotel in Manila for 4 days in October 2007, to participate at a medical congress in Manila. After a very long trip from Greece, I arrived in the hotel at noon. Although check-in policy of the hotel is at 3.00 pm, my room was already ok. All in this hotel were fantastic: the personnel at reception... more

My wife and I stayed for two nights while attending a convention held at the Philippine International Convention Center. The location was great. A short cab ride from the convetion center and to Intramuros. Easy walking distance to 7 eleven stores, Malate church, Manila bay walk, US embassy and to Robinsons Place Ermita Mall and to the airport. The noise... more

We stayed here April 5 – 20th, 2007. We decided to look for a hotel on Roxas Blvd, that looked decent, and this one was the one that looked the best. We booked direct with diamondhotel.com, but after when we checked the price is cheaper on asiarooms.com. This is the best 5 star hotel in the area of Roxas Blvd.... more

Classy-looking lobby greeted by courteous/polite staff. To the left of the lobby is the Kanika(?) a coffee/cake shop that boasts of charcoal-roasted coffee which was very delicious. Elevators were ok, arriving fast when you needed it. The room we got had a superb view of Roxas Blvd and the majestic sunset. The hotel took note of the request I made... more

Enjoyed my stay at the hotel a few years ago when it was still new. We've also celebrated special occassions at Yurakuen, the hotel's excellent Jap resto, and over the years have occassionally enjoyed the buffet at Palm Court. I remembered the Diamond again today, as I was excited to plan my mom's birthday weekend. I thought we could revisit... more

I stayed here for Friday and Saturday night in early March so I could see a little more of Manila. I travel to Manila for work, but work away from the city. The hotel is in a good location. Opposite is the Hyatt Hotel and Casino and it is on Roxas Blvd. A few blocks away is a bar area... more
