Admiral Hotel, Hotel auf den Philippinen
Admiral Hotel is a boutique hotel in Manila offering guests comfortable accommodation with modern amenities and personalized service. The building combines contemporary design with local elements and features spacious rooms, a rooftop pool overlooking Manila Bay, multiple dining venues, and a spa using French products.
Built in 1939, the hotel was once the city's tallest building and served as a landmark for arriving ships. During World War II it underwent significant changes under Japanese and later American occupation before later renovation while preserving its distinctive Art Deco style.
The hotel reflects Filipino hospitality through its attentive service and warm welcome culture visible in daily interactions. Each floor displays artwork dedicated to different Philippine traditions and folk dances, integrating the country's heritage into the guest experience.
Located near Malate, the hotel provides easy access to shopping centers, cultural sites, and historic landmarks such as Manila Cathedral and Intramuros. Visitors can relax in quiet hotel spaces after a full day or use the rooftop bar overlooking Manila Bay.
The hotel houses Ruby Wong's Go Down, a hidden bar concealed behind a false bookcase with Shanghai-style decor, where guests can enjoy cocktails like The Fiery Dragon or Green Opium Heaven in private booths. This concealed gem reflects the hotel's love of history and secrets.
