You get what you pay for!! The price is good with a great surroundings of museum, church, fort and parks near by Walking distance to restaurants. But our room needed much TLC. No water in the room, no toilet paper, sink was leaking and the floor was soaking wet....thank goodness it was just 1 night.

It is in a prime tourist location but the room we were given was filthy. The AC had broken fins on the deflector which meant you could put your hand inside, the bed sagged in the middle, the windows had shutters over them sealed with Sellotape. There was no drinking water in the room and the fridge had been unplugged. No soap, no toilet paper in bathroom. Not what one would expect.

A very dirty and poorly maintained property. Staff tried to claim the security deposit was not submitted and only returned after threat to contact police. I do not recommend this hotel.

no elevator! Parking was across the hotel in the church nearby but collects cash payment ( sketchy). Receptionist should give info about nraeby event like the famous cultural dinner show nearby. We are not aware about that we could have swing by and watch it. No hot water despite the portable switch for hot water on the shower. Its not working.

The location is great. However, there was no hot water available for a shower. Despite a change of room I had the same issue. And at one point there was no water in the shower at all so i had to use the bucket. Staff spoke limited english and could barely help with recommendations on where to dine and things to do in the area.

first impressions were good - nice looking hotel in a nice area. But it went downhill from there. rooms weren't ready, tv's didn't work, no satellite tv when they did work, average dinner, slow service - all no real bother but the clincher was we had no flowing water for the whole stay - so no showers. they had to bucket up water so we could use the toilet

Oh dear what a shame.....
Extremely disappointing. Stayed for 3 nights with family. My wife and i were in an executive room. Executive it was not. Unable to use shower for the whole 3 days as it spat out no more than a few drips. Reported but made no difference. Reported a bulb gone at start but it never got changed. Annoying that every day you have to re-set your key card. Staff lacking in any gumption and maintenance is really poor. A hotel with great potential but seriously neglected. What a shame.

Quaint, but a bit jaded, hotel in the heart of the venerable walled city of Manila - Intramuros. The place could use some updates, but the food was quite good and the staff were friendly and efficient. I would stay there again... and have already recommended the place to out of town friends.

Bad service & overpriced. Will not go back.
We stay 7 nights an were not happy with the Hotel. Here why: 1-at check in (6pm) we weren't given any information. This hotel has some weird rules, example: the door electronic key need to be update every day, even more than once a day otherwise it will not work. The Hotel will provide 1bottle of refill water a day only if they make up the room, to make up the room you need to put a sign outside, for the wifi you need to request at a reception a code that is changing every day. No one of this information was provided 2-the bed is not confortable at all, is too small and soft. 3-the air conditioning is on the floor blowing directly on the bed, even with low fan speed you get a countinous cold air flow. The room was on the 3rd floor under the roof, too hot without AC 4-is impossible to take a good shower: pressure low and water cold 5-the Hotel is noisy, last night before departure at 2am there was a guy cleaning the carpet outside our room. Dragging heavy equipement and listening at some music 6-the Hotel extras are overpriced: as you will need some water you will either buy outside or ask the Reception to send some (bare in mind that the telephone in the room is not working, so you will need to walk 3 floor to do that). One small bottle of water outside cost between 10 to 25 pesos (depending where you buy), in this Hotel was 71 pesos 7-the food at Hotel Restaurant is awful and off course overpriced. Don't eat there

We always stay at the White Knight Hotel when we are in Manila. It's a old-world style, in an old building with charming little courtyards and a sweet rooftop patio. I love the beautiful tropical plants; wish I could grow them at home. The staff is always kind and helpful; great with laundry, dry cleaning, any little thing you need, and our room is always immaculate (thanks April). The onsite restaurant/bar is super convenient; it's so nice not to have to go out onto the street when you're hungry or feel like a drink.

Four words: UNESCO World Heritage Site. That alone makes it worth the trip. If you love history or Spanish colonial architecture, this hotel is a must-visit. The building may look like something out of Pirates of the Caribbean, but it's modern on the inside and has free WiFi as an amenity. The hotel is within walking distance of Ft. Santiago (that's St. James the Greater for all you non-Spanish speakers), which has been under Spanish, British, American, and Japanese control and was the site of the Manila massacre during World War II, and the hotel is also close to San Agustin Church and Museum as well as the Manila Cathedral. I felt as though I got incredible value for the money. Location is this hotel's strongest suit, and the reason I take a vacation is to see sites, not sit around the hotel--that said, this hotel has plenty to do--definitely try the "electric chariot" tours.

I loved the white knight intramuros. I live history so the fact that it was near the UNESCO heritage site was a real treat as I usually do enjoy learning a bit about other countries histories. What made it even better was that the architecture of the hotel showed this old charm while still looking classy.

Probably my favorite thing about this hotel is the nostalgic vintage building. The rooms are clean and straightforward with nice amenities like free wi-fi and a minifridge. Room service was available all day and there as a casual restaurant on site. It's within walking distance to some neat heritage sites as well. All in all great value for the reasonable price.

The White Knight Hotel Intramuros is located at the best location in the city. I just became fan of the cleanliness they have at their hotel. You won’t feel like you’re at some hotel as you will feel like at home. Management is super-fast and we don’t have to wait for anything we want. The price is very fare for the services we get from the hotel. Literally happy to have a stay at White Knight Hotel Intramuros.

Situated in the heart of Intramuros, the location should be the big selling point here, but it turns out that the hotel is right next to an unemployment office for sailors (!), meaning the neighborhood gives off a distinctly menacing vibe, especially at night. This, combined with the numerous problems with cleanliness we observed (a room presented with absolutely filthy coffee mugs upon check-in, no toilet paper in one room, broken toilet in another, faulty hot water heater in a third, a cockroach, and a disturbingly high number of ants everywhere), means the next time I'm in Intramuros, even their rock-bottom prices probably won't convince me to stay here again :(

The hotel is quite old and although the building complex has a very Spanish vibe to it, it also evokes an eerie feeling when you look out your window and discover the attached structure at the back, almost like Vigan but not quite like it. Because the structure is old, the room is expectedly very traditional with old AC unit, old chandelier and old lampshade. Surprisingly however, everything was working perfectly, including the hair dryer in the bathroom (clap, clap, clap; I left my dryer at home and was already preparing to buy another one but the hotel hair dryer just saved my day) and even the electric heater (and yea, you get fresh packets of coffee and tea everyday). Perhaps the biggest asset of the hotel however, is its staff - very accommodating, always full of energy and are always ready to extend assistance. The community however is not very peaceful as it is also home to a couple of Seafarers' Accommodation (and by God, there are just soooo many of them there!). There is also a small eatery near the hotel that serves good and cheap although definitely not the fine dining type. Overall, the experience wasn't bad although I wouldn't say it is excellent but if I have to attend a function in the future near White Knight, I definitely would book again.

We paid for a bath towel that was never there!
We were asked to pay for a "missing towel". Reception was saying there were 3 towels in the room, when there were really only two when we checked-in. The rooms are all for double occupany, so how can they put 3 towels in our room??? We ended up paying for that imaginary 3rd towel, otherwise they will not allow us to check-out!
