La propriété — Asiatel Hotel
Asiatel Hotel is a straightforward 3-star business hotel in Pasay, a short walk from the LRT-1 Vito Cruz station. The lobby feels like a quiet airport lounge: clean tile floors, a reception desk with a small seating area, and a constant flow of utility workers and budget tourists. It suits travellers who need a cheap, reliable base near the Ninoy Aquino International Airport and the Mall of Asia, not those seeking atmosphere or local character.
Chroniques de Pasay
Pasay was originally a fishing village, named after a local chieftain, and later became a chartered city in 1947. It grew rapidly in the 1970s when the Philippine government moved international airport operations here. The city is best known as the site of the Cultural Center of the Philippines complex and the massive SM Mall of Asia, built on reclaimed land from Manila Bay. Today, Pasay is a dense urban grid of residential streets, shopping centres, and hotels, serving as Manila's gateway and a convention hub for the SMX Centre.
Meilleur moment pour visiter
Guide complet de Pasay →Meilleurs mois
December to February: coolest and driest months, with temperatures around 24–30°C. Crowds are moderate, and there is little rain, making it ideal for city walking and outdoor trips to the Mall of Asia baywalk.
Peak / Festival surge
January (Simbang Gabi and post-Christmas holiday) and April (summer vacation). Hotels in Pasay raise rates by 20–30%, and the city is busy with domestic tourists and families. The main drivers are Christmas shopping and the summer exodus from Manila.
La saison des épaules
May and November: temperatures are still manageable (26–33°C), rainfall is lower than the monsoon peak, and hotel prices drop by 15–25%. Fewer tourists mean shorter queues at MRT and LRT stations.
Météo & Emballage
Manila has a distinct wet season from June to October, but even in 'dry' months, sudden afternoon showers can happen. Pack a compact umbrella or a lightweight rain jacket, and always carry a water bottle because humidity stays above 75% year-round.
Briefing de la ville — Pasay
- The LRT-1 extension to Bacoor remains incomplete; expect longer travel times if you need to go beyond Pasay, especially during weekday rush hours.
- SM Mall of Asia has opened a new bus bay and jeepney stop on its north side, reducing traffic chaos around the main entrance. Use this if arriving by public transport.
- Pasay City government has announced a road-repair project on Taft Avenue (July–August 2026), so expect lane closures and possible delays when heading to the hotel.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Asiatel Hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 4 through 6 facing the inner courtyard or the side away from Aurora Boulevard. These floors are high enough to escape street-level noise but low enough for quick stair access if the lift is busy. Courtyard-facing rooms are significantly quieter than street-facing ones.
Rooms to avoid
Steer clear of any room on floor 1 or 2, especially those facing Aurora Boulevard. Ground-level rooms suffer from traffic rumble, pedestrian chatter, and potential odours from nearby eateries. Also avoid rooms directly adjacent to the lift shaft on any floor — the lift motor and door beeps can be audible at night.
Best views
From a higher floor (5 or above) on the Aurora Boulevard side, you’ll get an urban panorama of Pasay’s skyline with glimpses of the nearby EDSA intersection. Courtyard views are greener but less dramatic.
Quietest floors
Floors 4 to 6 are your best bet for quiet. The building’s lift typically stops at all floors, but mid-level floors have less foot traffic from the lobby and rooftop facilities.
🔊 Noise notes
Aurora Boulevard is a busy arterial road with jeepneys, tricycles, and cars running late into the night. Early morning garbage collection can also be disruptive on the street side. The hotel’s own lift engine hums audibly on floors near the lift core.
Insider tips
1. Check in after 4pm to increase your chance of a courtyard-facing room — these are often the last to be assigned. 2. If you’re driving, ask about parking at check-in: the hotel’s lot is small and fills fast, but street parking overnight near a police post (two blocks east) is safer than most spots.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
