What to Expect at Major Philippines Holidays 2026

What to Expect at Major Philippines Holidays 2026

The Philippines: a cruise around the stunning islands of Palawan ...

April 2-3: Holy Week (Maundy Thursday & Good Friday)

The most solemn period in the Philippines, Holy Week is a deeply Catholic tradition with nationwide observance.

What to Do:

  • Witness the dramatic processions in towns like Antipolo or Vigan, where devotees carry life-sized crosses
  • Visit churches for the traditional "Seven Last Words" services
  • In some provinces, watch the reenactment of the Passion of Christ (though photography is often discouraged)

Travel Tips:

  • Book accommodations early - popular pilgrimage sites fill up fast
  • Stock up on food - most restaurants and shops close completely on Good Friday
  • Plan transportation carefully - public transport runs on reduced schedules
  • Respect local customs - this is a time of deep religious reflection, so dress modestly and avoid loud behavior

June 12: Independence Day

Commemorating freedom from Spanish rule in 1898, Independence Day is a vibrant display of Filipino patriotism.

What to Do:

  • Attend the flag-raising ceremony at Rizal Park in Manila, followed by the presidential speech
  • Watch the colorful parades featuring marching bands and cultural performances from different regions
  • Visit museums like the National Museum or Rizal Shrine for historical exhibits

Travel Tips:

  • Arrive early for the Rizal Park ceremony (it starts at 7:00 AM)
  • Roads around government buildings close early, so use public transport
  • Many malls host Independence Day sales - a great time for shopping

December 24-25: Christmas Season

The Philippines celebrates one of the world's longest Christmas seasons (starting as early as September!), with Christmas Eve and Day being the pinnacle.

What to Do:

  • Experience "Simbang Gabi" (Misa de Gallo) - nine consecutive dawn masses starting December 16
  • Join the Noche Buena feast on Christmas Eve (traditional dishes include lechon, ham, and bibingka)
  • Visit Christmas light displays in neighborhoods like Ayala Triangle Gardens or San Fernando (Pampanga)

Travel Tips:

  • Book flights/hotels 3-6 months in advance - prices surge during December
  • Public transportation becomes chaotic - consider hiring a private car or using ride-hailing apps
  • Most businesses close early on Christmas Eve and remain closed on Christmas Day, so plan meals accordingly

Manila Bay City of Manila|3.14km from city center
The place is very accessible and convenient since it is near almost everything. Most of the staff were kind, hospitable, and accommodating, which we appreciated. However, during our check-in, the receptionist on duty lacked proper assistance and explanation. While we were carrying our belongings and trying to figure out where the elevator was, she was busy talking and laughing with her co-worker. We were not informed properly about how to bring our things to the room, so the experience felt unprofessional at that moment. Thankfully, one of the security guards noticed that we needed help and kindly assisted us with our cart and belongings. We truly appreciated his kindness and the hospitality shown by the other staff members.

The Manila Hotel has an old but elegant and luxurious style. Marble and stone finishing, tall ceilings and a grand piano at the back with a musician playing pleasant music greets you as you walk through the entrance. Lacking points from my personal experience: 1. The carpet floors need to be replaced. I had to change rooms because the first room I got had an unpleasant smell to it (they quickly changed my room after I went to the reception, so it wasn't terrible) and although I didn't notice until the end of my stay, the new room's carpet was frayed at the edges. 2. The night mode of the lights (many switches) completely cuts power to the power outlets. I didn't know and ended up waking up to a phone and power bank with a dying battery and needing to stay in the hotel a couple of hours until they finished charging. Maybe just a warning in the future? The good parts: 1. The service! People are SO accommodating, pleasant and efficient. Reception staff, waiters, bell boys and basically everyone greets you with a smile and tries to solve any problems with utmost focus and cordiality. 2. Traditional pride. Traditional fashion exhibition at the front was a great touch to my visit. The whole place (restaurants, pools, spa, rooms, etc) add to the experience. I could have stayed in the hotel and felt like I hadn't missed Manila's charm. 3. Excellent location. I realised early on that I could literally see every single thing from my ”1 day tour of Manila” from my hotel room. Nothing says great location like this.

The hotel is great! Even though it's an older property, the facilities are still very good, and the breakfast spread is excellent. It's located right next to Koreatown, and you just have to cross the street to get to Manila Bay – it's the perfect spot for stunning sunset photos. The lobby staff are also incredibly welcoming.

Our 2nights stay is super great..the hotel is an old school but they still keep the cleanliness and the 5star hotel vibe with the pretty and hospitable staff...knowing the hotel is part of the manila hotel group they kept the standard..the room is different from the pics..its is big where you dont bump into one another while going around..bathroom one of my fav because of the bathtub...spacious cabinet for the clothes and baggage...over all it is 10 for our family..breakfast buffet..OMG worth the price...they never repeat the menu each day...my kid is a picky eater but she enjoyed the selections of food...everyday there is BACON. Location wise it is just less than 5mins walk to the museums...if you love walking it is near Intramuros , Binondo, Quiapo Church. No problem when you get hungry at night..there are lots of resto and food stall just outside the hotel. Worth our stay..SURELY WILL BOOK AGAIN FOR A LONGER STAY🥰🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️ Thank you Manila Prince Hotel for a wonderful experince.

I'm a tourist from Japan, and this was my first time visiting Manila, staying for only one day. I was also planning a late-night checkout, so I looked for the cheapest hotel possible and booked this one for about 4,000 yen per night. Honestly, I didn't have high expectations, but I was surprised to find it much cleaner and the lobby much grander than I imagined. There's a security guard permanently stationed at the entrance, and a metal detector for security checks, which made me feel very safe. I had to pay a cash deposit at check-in, but it was refunded without any issues at check-out. The room was spacious, and the bed was comfortable. The air conditioning worked well, making for a pleasant stay. The shower pressure was a bit weak, but it wasn't particularly inconvenient. The hotel is located deep within Chinatown, but it's still conveniently situated for sightseeing. There were many tourists and shoppers around, and I felt safe walking out until around 8 PM. Since I enjoy walking, I even explored Intramuros on foot. Considering the price, this hotel offers excellent value for money. I highly recommend it for short stays or for travelers looking to save on accommodation costs.

Manila Bay City of Manila|2.51km from city center
I recently stayed at City Garden Suites and would like to share both a commendation and some constructive feedback regarding my experience. First, I would like to highly commend Ms. Zsan for her outstanding service. After being assigned to a room that, while clean, had an unpleasant odor, I approached the front desk again for assistance. Ms. Zsan handled the situation with genuine care and professionalism. She went beyond simply checking the system—she actively coordinated with housekeeping via radio to personally verify room availability. Her initiative, attentiveness, and willingness to help truly define excellent customer service. She made us feel heard and valued, and her dedication reflects the kind of frontline service that leaves a lasting positive impression. On the other hand, I would like to offer constructive feedback regarding my experience with Ms. Acel. As a guest, first impressions matter, and my initial interaction with her during check-in was not very reassuring. When I inquired about the possibility of being assigned to a newly renovated room, I was informed that none were available, without much effort to further check or explore options. This gave me the impression that my request was not fully considered. The following day, when I needed to extend my stay, I spoke with her over the phone and requested an update regarding my concern, emphasizing the urgency as I needed to secure the current room rate online. However, after waiting for around 30 minutes without any callback, I had to follow up myself. During the follow-up, she asked for details I had already communicated earlier, which made it seem like the information was not properly noted or attended to. On the third day, I needed to extend my booking again. To avoid the same experience, I went directly to the front desk. Unfortunately, she was again the one available. Despite my previous experience, I still chose to give her another chance, hoping for a better interaction. However, the experience remained the same. Because of this, instead of extending my stay further, I decided to transfer to another hotel. I hope this feedback is received constructively. Frontline staff play a crucial role in shaping the overall guest experience. While Ms. Zsan demonstrated exceptional service and professionalism, there is an opportunity for improvement in consistency, attentiveness, and proactive assistance. With the right focus on these areas, guest satisfaction can be greatly enhanced.

Manila Bay City of Manila|2.35km from city center
One of the most unique hotels in the Philippines, the ocean rooms have a full aquarium wall that's connected through all the rooms of that side. Different fish pass by at different times from room to room. They have great breakfast as well with a view of Manila bay while bacon is available on request for a small fee. Sunset views are awesome and dinner menu is well structured. While most of the hotel is spotless the main corridor outside the rooms could be cleaned more regularly as everyone is passing for there to get to the rooms. There was something odd in the morning just around the end of breakfast time. We could hear the chairs from upstairs being dragged on the wooden floor loudly around 9:30 am to 10:00 am, we were woken up several times as we tried to sleep after an early breakfast. The rest of the time it was whisper quiet and serene.

Manila Bay City of Manila|2.47km from city center
It's a 30-minute Grab ride from the airport if there's no traffic. The hotel is in a historical building, and you can really feel its grandeur in the lobby, hallways, and staircases. However, while it's near the coast, the surrounding area isn't very clean, so I wouldn't recommend walking around. A 5-minute Grab ride to Robinson Place will get you everything you need: a supermarket, a drugstore, and restaurants. The pool on the 4th floor has a great view and is easy to use as it's not crowded. The breakfast buffet is about average. Intramuros is also about a 5-minute Grab ride away.

I love the service! Hospitality is amazing I feel it's the one of the best in SEA for a 4 star hotel. Compliments to the staffs that check my room upon check out and found my glasses I forgot to pack. They returned it almost immediately upon check out. Compliments to the guards outside as well, they escorted us especially at night to the other side to get to the mall due to crazy traffic haha ! Casino can be improved with more different table games that has progressive jackpot I.e. paigow, stud poker etc. Too too many baccarat table. Location is perfect for those who wants to stay and experience the local as this hotel is buried in many local residential area unlike Newport. Overall, I will return for another short getaway 🥰

The hotel is in Ermita, right near the U.S. Embassy. The location is good, you can easily get access to historical places, like Rizal Park, Intramuros, Manila Ocean Park and Fort Santiago. Near the hotel are Starbucks and 7/11. The room is good. I had a beautiful view of Manila Bay. The staff was very polite, and check-in was so fast. Overall, it’s good.

Located in a very convenient community, with a 7-Eleven right downstairs, which is great for quick snacks or drinks. You can easily call a Grab or a car service directly to the hotel. It's close to all the major tourist attractions. If you enjoy walking, you can explore everything on foot, including all the important historical sites in the Philippines. I really liked it here! The accommodation was quiet and peaceful, and I felt the price was good for the value. It was clean and comfortable, just what I'd expect from a hotel. What I liked most is that once you get your bearings, you realize it's close to all the main attractions. It's also not too far from the train station; you can take the train almost to the last stop and then walk about 1.5 kilometers to reach the airport.

I was so disappointed. The shower host from the bathroom was defective but in fairness it was repaired on the 2nd day midnight. And also no rubber bathroom mat (since the bathroom floor tiles is slippery) . They only produce the mat after my sister a pwd has warned them for any accident that she may incurred the front desk will be responsible. While the water heater is not 24 hours based on their post. Water heater resume on my 3rd day stay. The four treadmills at the gym are also not working it is all under maintenance. In regards i think this hotel needs already a fully renovation.

Professional and efficient reception staff.  The apartment is spacious and very clean. Comfortable bed, but slightly uncomfortable pillows.  Air conditioner is a bit noisy, but does its job.  Great swimming pool — well maintained and quiet. The staff who works there are helpful and pleasant.  Location is convenient— 2 mins walk from Robinsons Place mall and a short grab ride from the old town — fort and casa Manila, or a 30 mins walk. Also, it’s a short walk from the beach.  Grab is great to move around the city and go to/from the airport— very affordable and convenient.  I’d definitely stay again.

My stay at Manila Lotus Hotel was a pleasant and comfortable experience. The staff were very accommodating and welcoming, always ready to assist with any requests, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The hotel’s location is very convenient, especially for travelers who want easy access to key spots around Manila like the US Embassy - 10mins walk. It’s close to restaurants, shopping areas, and tourist attractions, making it a great base for exploring the city. The room was clean, well-maintained, and provided a relaxing atmosphere after a long day out. It felt safe and comfortable, which is something I truly value when traveling. Overall, Manila Lotus Hotel offers great value for money with its excellent service, strategic location, and cozy accommodations. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Manila and would gladly stay here again.

The overall place is decent, however, the linen cover seems to have already been used due to its pungent odour. Every time we asked for room service, it just made the whole room smell worse as the mop used to clean the room likely had not been changed or cleaned. There was even a time when the cleaner took the money that had been left out in the open by the table, although we were going to tip anyway, it is just concerning that they’d take whatever money’s left out without having prior knowledge of whether the money is going to be given. What if it had been someone else's money or a larger amount than usual?

Got in our room around 2:30 pm. They seem to be really strict with early check-in unlike most hotels where you can get free early check-in from 12-1 pm. Easy to past time since mall is very accessible. Location is superb. Perfect for Binondo foodtrip. Room is nice for its price, but bathroom shower area can use some improvement. Jacuzzi and sauna area smells and doesn’t seem to be regularly cleaned. Feels unsanitary so we didn’t bother using it even if we wanted to. Wish they had a swimming pool.

I had a great stay at Hotel Benilde. The location is very accessible, making it easy to get around the area. The staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, always ready to assist with a smile. The hotel itself was super clean, which made my stay even more comfortable. The only downside was the limited breakfast options, which is why I decided not to avail of it. Instead, I opted to eat at KFC, which is conveniently located right next to the hotel. Overall, I highly recommend Hotel Benilde for its excellent service, cleanliness, and prime location. Just keep in mind that if you’re looking for a wider breakfast selection, you might want to explore nearby options.

Exceeded my expectations. The room is clean and big. We had the basics plus a small tv and a fridge. Floor is carpeted but it surprisingly doesn’t have the usual bad smell. You could tell that the room was well-maintained. Wifi is acceptable but not that reliable for video conference. Since the hotel is really old, you can’t see “modern” things in the room. And that’s okay. All the staff are friendly and never missed to greet us. Parking infront of the hotel felt safer. Overall, Hotel Miramar is a catch! I would recommend it to my friends and family.

I will always keep them ahead in terms of the noise-free environment, beauty and cleanliness of the hotel, and their behavior was very friendly which impressed me, the most interesting thing is that they have a rooftop bar where you can relax and take in the fresh air and enjoy the beauty of the city, guests from different countries are present there with whom it is very enjoyable to spend private time.

We had a pleasure of staying at Manila Grand Opera Hotel and was thoroughly impressed. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. My room was spotless and beautifully clean,comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. The hotel's location was perfect for exploring the city, and I especially enjoyed the delicious breakfast spread each morning. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting in Manila and will definitely be back!”

The room was clean and has a big space. But when we checked in, seems like the utensils and mugs were used, they did not replace it or did not wash it. But overall stay was good and the service was good, the breakfast is good but they just offer only 4 menu. And also, outside noise is disturbing specially when midnight and someone is walking outside because of the wood floor.

Great place! This is a boutique hotel that has around 80 rooms. The hotel was originally a bank but was later acquired by the university then turned into a teaching hotel. The view from some areas is beautiful and you can see the walls of Intramuros. Also, if you don’t decide to stay here, at least go to the restaurant on the top floor(Sky Deck). The sunsets are beautiful from there and the food is good.
