Element is a funky, bohemian boutique hotel with fantastic staff, cool atmosphere and comfy enough rooms. Art is everywhere on the walls, the food is heavily influenced by a French owner who is also a baker so the bread products here are 🔥, as is the whole menu. The barstaff, reception and housekeeping staff are first class. If you need to be in Manila/Makati/Poblacion, this is the place to eat and stay.

I love this place! it's all perfect. simple, functional and cozy. i felt so comfortable that i didn't leave the hotel for a day. which is also because the cuisine and service is excellent. For example, i had a slight cold and immediately a hot lemon on the table - just like that. That is service! As it is run by french expect french guests, too. Which is nice as well.

I stayed here for a week while I was in Makati. The location is great. It's walking distance from anything you'd like to do. The rooms are a cool, rustic design. Which I liked. The only problem I had was the different occasions I saw roaches. Now I understand I'm in Philippines, and sometimes you may see ants or a roach every now and then. But I killed a roach in my room almost everyday I was there. Other than that, I enjoyed my stay.

The food is good value, I love the sausage pasta and the tuna carpaccio! They also offer a bottle of wine for 1,000 pesos, which is rare in Makati.

Pros - The staff was great, very friendly and helpful - The breakfast was tasty - The bed was comfortable - The room was cleaned and water replaced daily - Robes were a nice addition - Room 303 and 403 were good size - The location is good for nightlife and central so easy to explore the area by foot - Plenty of places to eat and drink in the area Cons - No soundproofing to the rooms, the rooms facing the street had balcony windows broken (we tried room 303 and 403) so we could hear the noisy street 24/7. The owner should really invest in replacing the broken windows as they are not sealed a…
