Advantages: near malls and MRT station, within the Ortigas business complex Disadvantages: none
Shangri-la may be a bit far from the financial district of Makati City but it is located in the bustling Ortigas complex, another business hub in Metro Manila. There are no tourist attractions within its vicinity but one can just take a cab and go to the City of Manila (about 30 minutes to one hour depending on traffic) to check the historical sites of Intramuros, Fort Santiago, and ManilaCathedral, watch a play or musical performance at the Cultural Center of the Philippines, or explore the colorful Chinatown in Binondo.
The hotel is very near the Metro Rail Transit terminal which is located inside Shangri-la Mall. It is also just a short walk away from the bus stops (though I won?t recommend taking the bus since they are slow and crowded). Taxis can be hailed right outside the hotel or you can walk to the mall area to get one.

Advantages: Prime location - near malls and within the financial district Disadvantages: none
the versatility of the coconut, the grand ManilaCathedral, Fort Santiago where national hero Jose Rizal was imprisoned before his execution, and the Cultural Center of the Philippines where one can catch a play or a musical performance . For the more adventurous, there is Chinatown in Binondo which like its counterparts in other countries, is always bustling with activities.
Renaissance Hotel is also a favorite place for conferences, seminars and business meetings. I?ve been there for numerous occasions and I have no complaint whatsoever with the way they handle our events requirements.
We never had a single problem while staying or conducting business at Renaissance Hotel so I highly recommend this to anyone interested in visiting Manila either for business or pleasure (or both). As for us, we will definitely stay there again in the future. ...
