With its perfect, central location in the Makati area of Manila, the Mandarin Oriental hotel is well-placed for all the sights and shopping areas – whether you wish to take your time strolling through the streets or arrive relaxed in the back of a taxi.
Wherever you need to be in Manila, we can help you find the right way to get there.
Around Town
By Foot
Walk for just ten minutes from the hotel and you arrive at the main shopping district of Makati, which is also adjacent to the Central Business district. Here you’ll find the shopping centres, the bars, cafés and restaurants as well as many of the main tourist attractions.
By Taxi
We can provide an in-house taxi service for guests to use, with the fare dependent upon the chosen destination. The shopping areas are an approximate 10-minute journey by taxi during the busiest part of the day. If the in-house service is not available, guests can choose to take a metered taxi and our Concierge staff will be happy to help arrange this for you. The fare will be approximately PHP 30.00 for the first 500 metres and PHP 2.50 for every additional 200 metres travelled.
By Limousine
Our Limousine service is provided by an accredited company, and can be leased by the hour or day. Guests should contact our Concierge, with at least an hour’s notice for limousine service; or, 10 minutes notice for a hotel taxi (a dedicated service, that charges flat rates for specific destinations).
By Public Transport
To move around the city, taking an accredited taxi (such as the hotel-based service) is recommended. The MRT, air-conditioned rail transport coaches, transport guests to specific stations, which are mostly mall-based. While travel is quicker than taxis, it is best avoided during peak hours when the coaches are very busy.
To and From the Airports
By Our Limousine
A representative from the hotel greets guests in the arrival lobby of the airport. Guests will be escorted to the airport lounge where hotel cars are stationed. There are two types of hotel limousine, with a different rate for each.
Toyota Camry (one-way) costs PHP 2600.00
Mercedes-Benz (one-way) costs PHP 3200.00
By Taxi
If you wish to make your own way to the hotel, taxis provide a good service from the airport. Please look for signage directing you to the transport counter from the arrival lobby.
Unmarked taxis are available from car companies and cost around PHP 1800.00 for a one-way journey between the hotel and the airport.
