A Remarkable Stay at the Philippines’ Largest Hotel: Grand Westside Hotel’s Junior Queen Suite

During my recent visit to Manila, I had the pleasure of staying at the Grand Westside Hotel, located in Parañaque’s Entertainment City. With 1,530 rooms, this two-tower hotel holds the title of the largest hotel in the Philippines, in terms of number of room keys (As of this writing, more than 500 rooms are already available for occupancy, with additional rooms opening every week until the hotel reaches its full operational capacity). I was billeted at the Junior Queen Suite, a thoughtfully designed room, which has features that cater to guests with special needs.

Arrival and Check-In

Upon stepping in, I immediately noticed the hotel’s modern architecture and welcoming atmosphere. The check-in process was seamless, and the friendly staff ensured a smooth and pleasant start to my stay.

Junior Queen Suite: Comfort and Accessibility

The Junior Queen Suite offers a very spacious and well-appointed experience, featuring:

✔ Queen-sized bed with bedside lamps and charging ports

✔ Accessible bathroom with grab rails and a roll-in shower

✔ Tea & coffee-making facilities

✔ Mini-refrigerator & complimentary bottled water

✔ Work desk with a lamp & reliable Wi-Fi

✔ In-room safety box, slippers, and toiletries

The accessibility features make this suite an excellent choice for guests with mobility challenges, ensuring ease and comfort throughout their stay.

Service That Stands Out

One of the best aspects of my stay was the attentive and professional service. The staff went above and beyond to provide a seamless and enjoyable experience. Since it was first launched almost two years ago, the “sampaguita” brand of hospitality has been very consistent at all Megaworld Hotels and Resorts that I’ve stayed in recently.

Final Thoughts

My stay at Grand Westside Hotel’s Junior Queen Suite was comfortable, convenient, and memorable. With its prime location in Entertainment City, top-tier amenities, and excellent service, it’s a great choice for business travelers, leisure seekers, and staycationers alike. For those like me who come from outside Manila, the hotel is around 10 minutes from NAIA Terminal 3 via the NAIA Expressway.

With 500+ rooms already available and more being added weekly, now is the perfect time to experience Manila’s largest hotel!
