I was quite impressed by the welcome amenities provided by Ascott Makati. In addition to the assorted fresh fruits, we also received two packs of dried fruits and two bottles of iced-tea. This is quite generous compared to the welcome amenities provided by luxury hotels in Metro Manila.

One thing I love about the One-Bedroom Deluxe Suite is the relaxing and modern residential feel you get at the living room. We stayed in apartment number 1731 which is luxuriously spacious and filled with natural light. Our suite faces the east side of the city, overlooking Glorrieta 5 and SM Makati shopping malls.

The living room is furnished two comfortable sofas and also featured a large LCD television with local and international satellite channels. The television also came with a very powerful sound system, making the living area a perfect venue for families and friends to bond.

During my stay, I spent most of the afternoon in the living room to catch up reading the Ascott Living magazine which features travel destinations around the world where Ascott properties are located. The magazine is one of my sources of travel inspiration and it also serves as a excellent travel and lifestyle guide.

It was summertime when we stayed at Ascott Makati and the temperature outside could easily reach 33°C to 38°C. The en-suite AC worked perfectly to keep the indoor temperature at a comfortable 20°C. This made it possible for me to still enjoy a pot of hot tea even during summer.

Cooking is also a fun activity during staycations. Parents and kids can shop for ingredients at the nearby supermarket and work together at the kitchen preparing for dinner. Groups of friends can also try to recreate some of the dishes they had in one of their travels.

If you are not in the mood to cook, you can simply order room service and dine at the comfort of your suite. During our stay at Ascott Makati, we ordered room service for dinner on our second night. It was a Sunday night and we craved for home-cooked meals so we ordered Pork Sinigang and US Angus Beef Bistek Tagalog.

The in-room dining menu features a wide selection of Filipino, Asian and Western dishes, including sandwiches, pizza and pasta. Most dishes are good for one to two persons. Room service is only available until 10:00pm. As an alternative, you can also order food delivery from your preferred restaurant.
The bedroom is furnished with a king-size bed, a writing desk and a wall closet. The bedroom also has its own LCD television with local and international satellite channels. The bedroom has a separate AC so guests can control the temperature inside the bedroom independently from the living room.
I love the color theme they chose for the bedroom. The mixture of teal and bronze colors and oriental patterns gives the room an Asian luxury feel. The bed was very comfortable. Coming from a stressful week in the office and being deprived of sleep, the bed here at Ascott Makati was such a treat.
WiFi connection is free and is available inside the room and in the public areas. Power outlets and USB wall sockets are available next to the bed for convenient charging of phones and gadgets while in bed. An electronic safe is also provided inside the wall closet.
The en-suite bathroom is located inside the bedroom. It's a bit small for a suite of this size, but it complete, clean and functional. It has a single basin with hot and cold water. The bathtub is combined with a rainfall shower. Water pressure was excellent. And yes, the toilet is fitted with a bidet spray.
Guests staying at Ascott Makati are provided with the Appelles Apothecary & Lab bath amenities, the new global standard for all Ascott properties. The complete set comes with different scents ranging from floral, to musky to citrusy. My favorites are the shampoo and the soap with has the scent of eucalyptus and lemongrass.
Overall, we enjoyed our recent stay in this One-Bedroom Deluxe Suite. We have stayed here at Ascott Makati for several times already, and the stay experience has always been consistently excellent.
With its central location and residential amenities, the serviced apartments here are Ascott Makati are my top-recommendation for business travelers and balikbayan visitors in Makati CBD.
