Robinsons Place Manila, shopping mall
Robinsons Place Manila is a major shopping mall in Ermita that spans seven levels and houses more than 500 stores, restaurants, entertainment venues, and service centers. The building offers a wide mix of retail, dining, and services in one central location.
The center opened in 1980 on the former grounds of Ateneo de Manila Campus and Assumption Convent, marking a major transformation of the site. Later expansions, including the Padre Faura Wing in 2000, established it as one of the city's largest retail complexes.
The mall displays the historic Jesuit Bell at the entrance of the Padre Faura Wing, where visitors can encounter a piece of Manila's educational heritage amid modern retail spaces. The bell connects the bustling shopping destination with the neighborhood's religious history.
The center is located near Manila Bay and major transport routes, making it easy to reach. Visitors should plan to spend several hours exploring the different levels, as the complex is quite large.
The complex is connected to two residential towers—Robinsons Place Residences and Adriatico Residences—making it much more than a shopping destination. This blend of residential and commercial spaces creates a dynamic, integrated urban environment in central Manila.
