Nobu Hotel Manila
A hip, Japanese-inspired hotel in Manila
VERIFIED LUXURY
We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience goes beyond how your surroundings look — how your visit makes you feel is what you will remember most.
We started in 1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.
Five-Star
These are outstanding, often iconic properties with virtually flawless service and amazing facilities.
Four-Star
These are exceptional properties, offering high levels of service and quality of facility to match.
Recommended
These are excellent properties with consistently good service and facilities.

Japanese culinary extraordinaire Nobu Matsuhisa's culinary empire is known all over the world and Nobu Hotel Manila aims to further the reach of the master chef. Famed for his delectable and unparalleled Japanese-Peruvian cuisine, Matsuhisa has expanded his hospitality portfolio to include his namesake hotels.
Actor Robert de Niro was such a huge fan of the acclaimed chef that he waited more than five years before Matsuhisa agreed to be his business partner. And so, with Hollywood producer Meir Teper, the three opened the very first Nobu Hotel in Las Vegas in 2013.
Just two years later, they opened the first Nobu hotel in Asia inside the massive casino-resort property City of Dreams Manila. The Japanese-inspired aesthetic permeates throughout the stylish hotel, which happens to house not only a Nobu restaurant, but a spa and an outdoor pool, too.
