My Stay at Jupiter Suites
Monday, June 14th, 2010The eight Vis-Min Blog4reviews Bloggers were invited to witness the launching of Alaxan FR’s and DOLE’s Search for the Toughest Jobs Philippines last May 26, 2010, and we were housed at the Jupiter Suites Hotel in Makati City. It is a very cozy hotel right at the heart of Makati City that is known for those who go on a budget travel in Makati City. But guess what, it is more than just being affordable. It is also communications friendly. You have 24 hours free use of the telephone line plus, it is the only Makati hotel with free internet. If you go to other hotels, you will be charged for Internet access.
See our room, Mommy Phebie’s and mine:
The room was our sanctuary and refuge from the heat while it continued to be very warm and humid outside. We enjoyed an air-conditioned room with 2 huge beds and a 3rd bed which is a single bed— that could actually accommodate an entire family. Well actually, Mommy Phebie and I shared a Family Suite. Family Suites will cost only P 4,580.00 a night. Other bloggers like April and Keiven from Davao, each stayed in a Standard Suite that costs P 2,980 a night, while others like Junelle and Mj from Ilo-ilo, or Jorich and Clarence from Cebu, shared Deluxe Suites. Deluxe Suites cost P 3,580 a night.
Personally, I loved the hot and cold shower for I am always taking hot showers and baths even at home. But this time, I need not heat water as it casually flowed in our shower room. Hot baths are soothing and relaxing especially when I feel dead tired after a day’s work in front of the PC.
Another great advantage of our stay at Jupiter Suites is the fact that we have continued our online tasks right inside our room as they have available WIFI connection. If for some reasons a guest is not able to connect to WIFI, they will provide you with LAN connectors to easily get Internet access. Now, if for example you do not have a laptop with you, but may need to go online, they have a business center where you can use their PC for free and it is just within the building so it is safe. And speaking of safety, a 24 hour security is assured of all guests at Jupiter Suites.
Mommy Phebie and I bought foodies like brownies and candies that we freely placed in our refrigerators to keep them cool, and drinks are readily available to match them. I noticed that the price is even cheaper compared to other hotels I have checked in. Coke in can and bottled water is only P 33 each while it will already cost P 45 in other hotels.
Oh, and the closet are huge enough with lots of hangers so you can really store your clothes and stuff to keep things tidy. And the best part, I love their fresh clean sheets that when I sleep and cover my face in them, I could almost instantly drift to dreamland..
The staff are courteous and you could actually leave your precious stuff without worrying if some burglar may rob you of such things. But then if you really want to make sure your stash are safe, you can go ahead and request for a Safety Deposit Box. If you wish to check room availability ahead of time, go ahead and email them at frontdesk@jupiterarms.com or call Tel. (632) 890.5044 to 50, Fax (632) 890.5019, or drop by at #102 Jupiter St., Bel-air Makati City Philippines.
The next day, we enjoyed a hearty complimentary breakfast with matching free newspaper, before going to the Manila Ocean Park. Before I end this post, let me share this video I found on YouTube..
