Conrad Manila's Presidential Suite has nearly 12,000 sophisticated square feet. Conrad Manila There's luxury, and then there's luxury with soul — something that Manila's top hotel suites deliver with quiet confidence. While international brands bring world-class comfort, the uniquely Filipino sense of warmth, service and hospitality elevates these spaces into something unforgettable. From personal butlers and private saunas to panoramic views and spa-like bathrooms, here's a look at some of the most exceptional suites in the city, each offering a distinct perspective on indulgence. Set along the edge of Manila Bay, the Presidential Suite at Forbes Travel Guide Recommended Conrad Manila is made for both high-level entertaining and tranquil retreats. The 11,840 square feet of seaside sophistication includes an entertainment lounge featuring a dining table for 10, a stylish bar, plush seating and even a guest powder room. The luxurious primary suite includes a private entry foyer, lounge and dining area, soaking bath and walk-in wardrobe. A connecting guest bedroom and executive study are added touches while a large terrace includes a swimming pool and plenty of space for sun-soaked afternoons and intimate evenings under the stars. A personal butler is available throughout your stay, delivering the signature Filipino style of service that feels at once professional and warmly familiar. Rising above the city, the Shangri-La Suite offers amazing views.

Guests also enjoy exclusive access to the Horizon Club Lounge, a private space where breakfast, cocktails and business amenities are seamlessly offered.
