My partner had an accident whilst in Manila and the staff were exceptionally kind and helpful (as indeed they were at all times). Great location for sightseeing and cool rooftop bar/restaurant.

There aren't many places to eat or drink nearby which might be an issue for longer stays. And the rooftop bar is not disabled accessible.

Beautiful hotel. Excellent view of the golf course, historical sights, and city from the room, and restaurants. Restaurant food was expensive, but very delicious and well presented. We ate there 4 different times, mostly because of the views. The room was spacious and modern. A/C was cold, shower hot, bed comfortable. The staff was friendly, helpful, and excellent all around. Stayed there because near to immigration main office for visa interview and was very happy with my choice. Also, hotel is very quiet. I didn't hear any city noise or anything outside of the room. Rooftop Restaurant for sunset dinner was wonderful. Outside the hotel was totally safe for walking around, mostly students' from the nearby college and sight seeers. I would definitely stay there if visiting Intramuros area again. Was totally worth the extra coin.

Can't think of any cons. Might be nice if there was a pool to cool off in after walking around all the histical sights.

This hotel has the most helpful and kind staff of anywhere I’ve travelled (which is saying something, even by Filipino standards!). We felt so well taken are of. Special shout out to Don who helped us book incredible massages and recommended a fantastic restaurant and was generally the best welcome to the Philippines. This was the perfect one night stop in Manila after a long travel night - thank you Bayleaf!

Careful with the shower water, the water can run into the bathroom so throw some extra towels down. Also booking.com does make it look like shuttle transport is included, but it’s extra and a Grab is cheaper to and from airport :)

This hotel was our oasis in hustling bustling Manila. The location is nothing but perfect directly in Intramuros with direct view on the walls and skyscrapers in the background. Most of what's worth seeing in Manila can be reached in walking distance. Rooms are clean, breakfast was ok, sunset at the roof terrace restaurant was spectacular and food was also nice. Would stay there again if back Manila, despite that one thing...

Rooms are so not soundproof! You can hear every single word of your neighbours like you'd be in the same room, them singing Christmas carols, them having sex... 🙃 That definitely needs improvement!

The room was clean and comfortable, with a quiet AC and of a decent size. The breakfast is very good, with a lot of different choices. Both the restaurant at the top floor (mostly open) and at the third floor are very good, with generous portions of good food. We didn't try the third resturant, that is only for lunch. In the basement there is a parking, free for the hotel guests. We didn't have problems with our car, but it was between Christmas and NYE, so most offices and the schools around were closed. The hotel is inside intramuros, with all the historical buildings (and Chinatown) at walking distance.

Nothing, really.

I recently stayed at The Bayleaf Intramuros, and it was an unforgettable experience. Their buffet breakfast was, without a doubt, the best I’ve ever had in the world! Every dish was perfectly prepared, with an incredible variety to choose from, making each morning a true delight. The staff went above and beyond, delivering exceptional service throughout my stay. From their warm smiles to their attentiveness, they made me feel valued and truly cared for. The Bayleaf Intramuros exceeded all my expectations, and I can’t recommend it enough for anyone looking for a memorable stay with world-class hospitality.

It was a bit pricy for the Philippines if not I would have rated it 10

The breakfast was really exceptional in this price class, also a good coffee and you have a view over Manila while eating. I was in a similar hotel before with much less options. The room was very quiet, I could relax very well. A good customer service there, cleaning staff always had a smile. Staff always was ready to help me with lots of Taxis I used. The location is perfect, you are in Intramuros but at the border and so you can walk easily to the big Shopping Mall, the train station, Mayors house and to two museums nearby.

Nothing

The diverse dish of the breakfast on each day, i like how polite the staff are and how fast they attend to our request.i like that the room was cleaned everyday.

The tv channels are just local tv, if at least make it a smart tv then we can connect our devices and watch netflix.. Most of the time we wanted to watch tv in the room and rest cause we came from a very busy environment but we cant watch anything because my child do not understand Tagalog and most of the channels are local channels, we end up watching on my mobile only.

The sunrise view from our room on the 7th floor overlooking a part of the old wall of Intramuros and the golf course was amazing and the room is also quiet (room No. 704). The room has the right size for a couple and the shower is also big and tidy. Also the sunset from the Rooftop Bar & Restaurant is stunning. Good access to Restaurants and street foods stalls just outside the Hotel incl. a 7-11 Shop. We like always to come back once we stay in Intramuros again. Thank you also to the nice and friendly Hotel staff.

The Breakfast was good enough but there is space for a bit more varieties to make the mornings more special for a Boutique Hotel. Maybe you should refresh some of the environments and appliances from time to time to preserve the value for other guests.

The location was the number one reason why I picked this hotel. It's conveniently located within the walled city! The breakfast buffet had some good days and some not so good days, but then again, you're spoilt for choice at the breakfast buffet so you had many options. The views at breakfast, especially when you sit by the window, were great! I also like that there are two to three restaurants within the hotel and a cafe at the lobby so food wasn't a problem. My hotel room had a view of the golf course and it was especially beautiful during sunrise!

The walls were a little thin, I could hear the other rooms. For the two nights, I had to call reception to tell them about the noisy neighbors, but that was addressed promptly. The water pressure wasn't as good at night as in the morning. It was also odd how I couldn't opt for a foot massage instead of a whole body massage. But other than those, I always come back to this hotel when I want to stay in Manila. Kudos Bayleaf!
