Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about St. Thomas Square

Near St. Thomas Square, The Manila Hotel and Rizal Park Hotel are top choices. The Manila Hotel is a historic 5-star property with bay views, while Rizal Park Hotel offers European charm at mid-range prices. Pro tip: Book upper-floor rooms for panoramic views of Rizal Park.

Walk 15 minutes west through Rizal Park to reach Manila Bay’s famous sunset spot. Alternatively, take a Jeepney to "CCP Complex" (5-minute ride). The Baywalk promenade is ideal for golden-hour photography — aim to arrive by 5:30 PM.

Try Café Adriatico for Filipino Silog breakfasts, or Barbara's Heritage Restaurant for Spanish paella with live music. Both are 10-minute walks near San Agustin Church. The latter occupies a restored 18th-century convent with courtyards.

Located in Manila's UNESCO-listed Intramuros, this square was named after University of Santo Tomás (founded 1611). It served as a colonial-era religious hub, surrounded by Baroque churches like San Agustin. Today, it's a key stop on heritage walking tours.

Visit before 10 PM and avoid secluded alleys. While police patrol the area, lighting can be limited. Join the official Intramuros Night Tour (includes security escort) or use registered taxis like Grab. The square itself is well-lit during events.

SM Manila mall (8-min drive) houses Kultura for handicrafts. Casa Manila Gift Shop sells vintage-inspired souvenirs. For local flavors, visit Quiapo Market (2km away) on weekends — bargain for tropical fruits and handwoven bags.

Winford Resort and Casino Manila

Staying at Winford Resort and Casino Manila was a really positive experience overall. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive—always ready to help with any request, which made our stay much more comfortable. Cleanliness was top-notch; every area we visited felt well-maintained and hygienic. The resort's environment is pleasant, though not overly luxurious, but it’s peaceful and well-kept. Facilities are functional and sufficient for both leisure and business needs, especially the casino area, which was lively and inviting. Breakfast was a bit of a letdown for us as a Chinese traveler—the flavors leaned heavily toward Western-style curries, which didn’t quite hit the mark. Still, other options were decent and varied enough. If you're here on a business trip, the location is excellent—easy access to nearby offices and transport links, making commuting simple. All in all, a solid choice with great value, especially for those looking for comfort, convenience, and a little fun.

Whether you're traveling with kids or just looking for a comfortable, authentic stay close to Manila’s highlights, this place hits all the right notes. Highly recommend for anyone wanting charm, convenience, and genuine hospitality.
