Hi! I am also scouting for affordable hotels in Manila where me and my 2 girls can stay. I searched this hotel and it's located at E. Rodriguez? They soon be opening a branch at Ermita and that would be near USEM and SLEC.

Thanks.

Ayyyy sis they have branch in Malate, but then it is not showing on their website, I've read "here" that this is a small but nice hotel in Malate... yaaayyyy and much cheaper... there's a contact number also... but have not seen this...

For inquiries regarding room availability and reservations, call Stone House Manila at 524-0302 or 524-0248.

The Lotus Blossoms is clean, reasonable and 5 minute walk to St. Lukes. Jollibee and Mac Donalds across the street. Lots of expats stay there when in Manila. A bit cheaper than Bayview and cleaner also.
