Checked in the Fairmont for an overnight staycation with friends. Booked a gold room which gives you access to the executive lounge which has impeccable service. Five star treatment begins while checking in and the attendants were incomparably hospitable. We were served coffee and cookies upon our request. Upon entering our well designed room, the atmosphere felt homey. The king sized bed was awesome with great beddings and high thread count, aside from the super comfy feather pillows. The bathroom was super clean and the toiletries were impressive - La Lobo. We headed to the pool area to get some color which was fairly empty at 1pm. We indulged with gastronomic gourmet burger and wrap sandwich matched with a good bottle of Chilean Merlot. The waiters were quite attentive to our needs as we loved a great afternoon soaking up some sunshine.
After our sun bathing and pool dipping we went to check out the spa. Had a good steam but more importantly a dip in the mineral pool which was quite relaxing and refreshing. An hour after we headed back to the room to have a quick change and get ready for cocktails.
Cocktail hour from 6-8pm was quite an indulgence with overflowing good wine and drinks with a whole range of canapés to choose from. Truly a great treat to start the evening we ended up staying longer. After all the good food and wine, decided to head...Checked in the Fairmont for an overnight staycation with friends.

Breakfast today was amazing at the lounge where service is at its finest. Almost personalized, we loved every minute of attention given. The food was just about right with a good range to choose from. While space and privacy at the lounge is indeed a luxury.
My overall experience was with great pleasantries. Love how personable and hospitable the staff of the lounge and housekeeping was. Didn't have to wait to call or be called, they seem to know when you're about to ask for something. Wouldn't mind coming back to Fairmont again but hopefully for a longer visit. A luxe heaven in the heart of makati city that I would highly recommend. More
