Manila Pavilion Hotel

Manila Pavilion Hotel, also known as Waterfront Manila Hotel & Casino, Holiday Inn Manila Hotel, and Manila Hilton Hotel, is a high-rise building in the heart of Old Manila. This hotel is managed by Waterfront Hotel Management Corporation.

The structure can be described as having the shape of the letter L. It has more expansive lower podium levels where most of the amenities are situated, and further back away from its UN Avenue frontage are the higher floors where the hotel rooms are located. The area on top of the podium not occupied by the higher floors appears to be an open area with small trees and other plants. The facade of the building is mainly that of gray concrete.

Standing at the corner of Maria Orosa St. and UN Avenue, you can reach Manila Pavilion Hotel using the jeepneys traversing Taft Avenue by deboarding at UN Avenue and then walking eastward along it. You can also use the LRT Line 1 and alight at UN Avenue Station. The parking space entrance faces Maria Orosa St. However, at the time of writing this entry (1 June 2023), Manila Pavilion Hotel is under heavy renovation, so some of the information provided here, especially its facade and the location of its parking entrance, may no longer apply when it reopens.
