The Hotel Experience
The hotel’s front associate, Paul was a genuinely warm and friendly host. He was really accommodating from the moment we arrived, checking in, and sharing interesting facts about the hotel.
This place is certainly perfect for people in desperate need of an R&R. Their rooms range from Studio, One-Bedroom, 2-Bedroom Suite, and One Bedroom Executive Suite.
From the of the lobby, down to our designated room, everything just complements, from the blue accents, design, ambiance, and not to mention, the space! Here at The Sphere, you’ve got all the space you need – just perfect if you’re planning to stay with huge groups. The floor to ceiling windows were also admirable with the stunning Makati cityscape as the background.
As for our room, we stayed at their Bed Room Suite which features a full-service kitchen and a dining and living area. We loved how the room looked very modern and industrial-chic, yet makes impressive green practices, by using glass bottles for their shampoo, and paper packaging for their bathroom toiletries.
Said to be their premier choice at The Sphere, this room truly did not disappoint. It has complimentary tea and coffee making facilities, a refrigerator, and other kitchen essentials. Our room houses a Queen-sized bed, a two 43-inch flat screen TV (one on the living area and one on the bedroom), a working desk, safety vault, a couch, bathrobes, complimentary slippers, and a fast WiFi internet connection.
According to The Sphere’s Operations Manager Alec Yatco, “The Sphere was conceived with the corporate travelers in mind who want to be within walking distance of their workplace.
However, Salcedo Village becomes a lively residential area especially with the Salcedo Saturday Market during the weekend, making the hotel also ideal for family staycations. Plus, our beautiful indoor pool with its adjacent resto/bar will surely be a popular draw for those who wish to unwind.”
Hotel Amenities
If you’re up for a quick run, they have a gym and an outdoor pool where you can wind down from your busy day. Now if you wanted to have those coffee and milk-tea cravings fixed, then visit their very own Starbucks Reserve, Tea18, and Datong Milk Tea at the ground floor.
But of course, no staycation is complete without eating!!! Not to worry, this hotel has partnered with Little Flour Café to serve its guests an All-Day Breakfast and lunch.
If you’re planning to organize a meeting or event, this hotel houses room which can accommodate small groups of 20 to 120 guests.
Final Verdict
Overall, The Sphere Services Residences will definitely help you press that reset button for that must-needed break.
It’s also conveniently located to malls, dining areas, convenient stores, and shopping establishments, so you will really never run out of options of recreational activities if you plan on staying here.
