The Lobby Lounge of Edsa Shangrila Manila serves vast variety of beverages and meals, it’s the perfect venue for chilling out completely

Last October 12 in the afternoon, went to Edsa Shangrila Manila to wait for hubby and my daughter to come out from their offices and school.

This is my comfort place . I loved Shangrila Hotels .

Their operating hours is 24 hours from Monday to Sunday . Located at Lobby Level Tower Wing. Dress code is Smart Casual and pls take note that smoking is not permitted at the Lobby Lounge ❌

I was seated in a comfy seat and the Shangri-la hotels staffs ladies are always friendly and accommodating. That’s a Shangrila Hotels excellent service.

They gave me an IPAD ,cool , you can choose your orders from the menu .

These can be found :
Beverages, all day breakfast,burgers and sandwiches, Asian favourites , appetisers and salads ,pasta , their best sellers and desserts .

I just had a cafe latte to relax . Service was fast and the cup was big and has free cookie

Good thing I’m a Golden Circle Member because when they check out my points enough to pay for the value of the coffee . ️. Bill is just around 300 plus pesos and thanks to Golden Circle ⭕️, I was able to redeem my points and had free coffee at Edsa Shangrila Manila

Truly Shangrila Hotels values their loyal customers like me

Falling on the 15th day of the 8th month according to the Chinese lunar calendar, the Mid-Autumn Festival is the second grandest festival in China after the Chinese New Year. It takes its name from the fact that it is always celebrated in the middle of the autumn season. The day is also known as the Moon Festival, as at that time of the year the moon is at its roundest and brightest.

Who loves mooncakes When I was still small , I remember mom usually brings mooncake at home because her boss is a Chinese and since then I loved mooncake but now that she is retired so no mooncakes anymore and that’s why I decided last August 21 to go to Edsa Shangrila Edsa Hotel to visit the Mid Autumn booth there . They are selling mooncakes in advance. It is located at the Lobby of Edsa Shangrila.

You can choose from White Lotus, Red Bean, Mixed Nuts, Green Tea , Chestnut

I had their big White Lotus mooncake , it’s their best seller . Price per piece is around 600 plus . They also sell mooncakes in boxes but it’s going to be expensive .

Mid-Autumn Festival is a harvest festival, celebrated in most East Asian countries, such as China and Vietnam.

It is the second most important festival in China after Chinese New Year. To the Chinese, the festival means family reunion and peace.

It is also called "the moon festival" as it is celebrated when the moon is believed to be the biggest and fullest.

Im a big fan of mooncake and it’s time to be grateful and thankful for all the blessings #MidAutumnFestival2018 #MoonCakeFestival2018 #edsashangrila #myurbanoasis #aileenlfoodadventure2018 @edsashangrila

Available at the hotels mooncake counter from 730 am to 9:30 pm daily .

Edsa Shangrila gives me always a good vibes and relaxing ambience . My comfort hotel place

Finally, a staycation I deserve!

Surprisingly there were a lot of people when we got to the hotel. But good thing they had excellent customer service that I didn't really had to wait even a minute to be checked-in.

We originally booked 2 rooms in the garden wing but were offered 2 adjacent rooms in the tower wing (which is the newly renovated wing) and had to only pay for P614/room (already inclusive of taxes)! Of course we took it! It was a good deal!

The room was perfect. It was light and airy. The king sized bed was soft and had plush pillows. The room was facing SM Megamall.

Wifi was fast, highly accessible and most importantly, FREE!

Breakfast buffet is always the thing I look forward to when staycationing. Good thing we were there as early as 8am because after finishing breakfast around 9am, the queue outside reached the elevator area!

The pool had cold water which I hoped would've been heated for a more enjoyable swim.

Nevertheless, I still love Edsa Shangri-la. Always have, always will.

It's nice to be back. Went here last Oct 26, it's our 17th wedding anniversary. Went here with my daughter Adelheid L to get a cake at the Bakeshop of Edsa Shangrila and was able to used my Golden Circle points. After we got the wedding anniversary cake I decided to have some fresh mango juice while waiting for lunch time to meet hubby at SM Megamall for lunch anniv celebration.

The coar of mango juice here is around 400 pesos and glad I was able to used my Golden circle points again and again I didn't pay any! Was able to charge at the lobby while seating in a comfy couch and using their fast wifi connection.

I ️ Shangrila hotels '

Everything is instagramable. Even Cooper enjoyed staying here! Upon checking in, you will feel that you really are welcomed.

The interiors, WOW!
Welcome food is yummers!
The room, speechless!
Especially the bathroom.. omg. i love it! My fave part of the room. Lol I super liked the speaker in the bathroom.. when you turn it on, you can listen what they are watching outside.

And most especially.... the bidet. HAHA

Didn't take many pictures of the room because once we entered the room, we lay down immediately and our belongings was a disaster.

Pool is great too. Saw the Kramer Family.
Cooper enjoyed chillin' as usual.

Btw, the room's lighting is very good that we actually took advantage of it and shot a pictorial. lol (lastpic)

I really needed time off so I decided to spend it in Edsa Shangri-la Manila, but this time, in a Horizon Club room. Now what's the difference to your usual room? To start, you pay more for an overnight rate of about P14K including taxes, you get -

✅ Private check-in and check-out at Horizon Club Lounge (located on the 14th floor) so you get to avoid long lines at the lobby
✅ Overnight accommodation in a deluxe room (add P5K more for a bigger room with jacuzzi)
✅ Breakfast buffet (either in HEAT or Horizon Club Lounge). If you choose to eat at the Lounge, you can even ask the chef to prepare a special meal just for you.
✅ Afternoon tea, coffee and snacks at Horizon Club Lounge from 3-5pm
✅ Unlimited drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and canapes from 5-7pm
✅ Early check-in and late check-out option
✅ Personalized and VIP service all the way

So I can truly say that I did enjoy every moment I spent here and indeed achieved ultimate relaxation. Will most definitely stay here again next time 🏼

Through the years we've had a couple of staycations here. Its home away from home and so convenient if you're a shopaholic ️🏻 Attended a wedding last December, and I'd say it was great! Kudos to the beautiful couple for the grandiose celebration ️ We enjoyed the feast 🏻️

Attended a wedding reception here at their Isla ballroom. The couple ordered a 9-course meal. Out of the dishes ordered, i enjoyed the following the most:

*Hot and cold assorted meat combination - jelly fish, fried hakaw roll (this is liked the steamed hakaw only it's fried and wrapped in lumpia wrapper), asado slices

*Fried Taro puff with seafood - a small soft taro puff topped with a shrimp

*steamed prawns in garlic sauce - i liked the garlic sauce

*baked cod fish fillet in barbeque sauce - not fishy, soft tender fish meat

*chilled mango pudding - very sweet, milky and creamy dessert

The rest of the dishes was also delicious. But i just listed down the ones i liked the most.

had a meeting here and the special set menu price increased without warning. and the serving was smaller. of course the waiter couldn't do anything about it.

Our early Christmas staycation 2015 at Edsa Shangrila Hotel happened last Dec 23-24. I'm a loyal customer of Shangrila Hotels. I've been to all the Shangrila Hotels here in the Philippines like Shangrila Mactan, Makati Shangrila, Shangrila Boracay and I've been to Edsa Shang for how many times but just for dine and finally I was able to experience a staycation there last Holiday.

Being a member of Golden Circle gives you rewards just like what i got which I will discuss on my next review.

Checked in time was 2pm but we got there 3pm and all our luggage were assisted and transfer to Concierge and got it when we were in the room. Then when we were about to check in at the reservations located at the lobby hotel there were I think 5 desk and another staff will assist you on which desk will you be, nice and efficient service .

We got the garden wing room , this is a newly renovated room, cost is higher than the standard room. Bed was comfy, and elegant .

This year theme of Edsa Shang is a Touch of Winter. You can have picture taking at the lobby with the Polar bear , snowman and the giant Christmas tree was fabulous !

Kids swim at night and lucky we are because we experienced snow ️ it looks real , we really enjoyed their touch of winter theme here.

Service was excellent of course. Can't wait for another Shangrila Hotel experience

#EdsaShangChapters

Kids and grown ups alike just like me were able to enjoyed this mama polar bear and her cubs last Decemeber at Edsa Shangrila Manila. Edsa Shang theme for last Holiday is a Touch of Winter️

Went there one Saturday night to pay for our hotel booking for Dec 23 stay. I've been to all the Shangrila Hotels here in the Philippines and this is the last one we haven't tried for staycation and glad now it's complete , I am a loyal fan of Shangrila Hotels , service

EDSA Shangri-La – TOWER WING DELUXE ROOM:
This beautiful room provided much needed comfort and relaxation during our staycation. The blue and brown palettes give off a somewhat calming effect which made me doze off instantly after settling in.

This type of room has 2 beds fit for a small family. Since we are a family of 4 with 2 teens, it was impossible for all of us to fit in. So, we requested for a roll-away bed that was immediately set-up for my boy by the window.

The room is equipped with a flat screen tv and a work desk that is positioned by the window. For workaholics (like me haha!), this area will still allow you to stay busy while offering a refreshing view of the garden when you feel tired from writing or working. A perfect room for business and pleasure alike. By the way, all Tower Wing Rooms are non-smoking rooms. If you need a smoking room, request for a room located on the Garden Wing.🛌

My go to place whenever I feel like I need to unwind and catch up with important people in my life.️

I love their cafe mocha and blueberry cheesecake. You can't miss these yummy food here.

Egg's Ben, Clubhouse Sandwich, Char Kway Teow, Beef Salpicao • Too pricey (of course, it's a five-star hotel haha) and I didn't even get full! Should've had lunch at Heat or somewhere else instead

Our home away from home

food was ok. small serving for an ala carte meal. if there's no good soup, rating would be 2 stars
