Manila Hotel's buffet rates are not so friendly to start with. It's actually more expensive than Dusit Thani's Crossover and EDSA Shangri-La's HEAT. But later on we did understand why. Here are 3 words for you - nine buffet stations! The selection is really overwhelming.
Cafe Ilang Ilang | Manila Hotel Buffet rates:
Lunch: P1,550++
Dinner: P1,770++

We underestimated Manila Hotel's buffet. Never hesitate to buy some Cafe Ilang Ilang discount vouchers if there any ongoing promo. Super sulit!
And by the way, why not experience a night here in this historical hotel?
comfy king sized bed with lots of pillow, LCD tv,
computer desk, small dining area, vintage ambiance
spacious bathroom with tub, with waterproof tv on the wall
so did I had a great time in this historical hotel?
ABSOLUT-LY! ^_^
Now we know why Manila Hotel is still one of the premiere hotels in the Philippines.
Thank you Rob. Ang sosyal ng ating super ahead birthday celebrations!
Next time dadalhin ko na camera ko para di nako magreklamong di ko alam gamitin yung Oympus mo. =)

Hi Chyng. Maybe next time you can try eating at the Champagne Room in Manila Hotel. Haven't been there, still planning. :) it looks very pretty
