Edsa Shangri- La’s Upper Level De Luxe Room:Comfort, Style and Elegance- All In

Edsa Shangri- La’s  De Luxe Room 
Comfort, Style and Elegance- All In 

It has been such a joy to stay at any Shangrila Hotel 
and I have blogged the reasons when I declared this

group of hotels as the best family hotel in the country.



I have always considered Edsa Shangrila as our home

away from home and the kids grew up loving this hotel

as we usually stay here whenever we are in Manila.

I have already reviewed about this hotel’s De Luxe Room

located at the lower floors of the Tower Wing,

…I have also blogged about their Horizon Club Rooms

located at the upper floors of the Garden Wing,

…and this time, this post is about their De Luxe Room

located at the upper floors of the Tower Wing.

We arrived at the hotel after a short flight from Naga City,

as I was set to be a panelist for a national thyroid forum.

The check- in was fast and easy,

…and we were in our room in a breeze.

Stay

We were booked to a upper level of the

hotel’s tower wing De Luxe Room,

…that had an unobstructed  

view of the Ortigas Center.

Just like any other hotels in Manila that we have

stayed in the past , the view could be depressing

at daytime when thick smog obscures the horizon,

…but becomes alive and breathtaking

 the city lights up at night time.

Comfort, style and elegance are what Shangri- La rooms stand for.
Unlike the De Luxe rooms at the lower floor of the hotel that had 
a reserved dark wood interior, this one had a more stylish and 
lighter shades  of neutral earth colors,accented with deep- dark 

indigo colored and refreshing minty shades of blue throw pillows.

The room had two huge double bed, joined together

to become a massive, comfortable King sized bed big

enough to fit a family of four snugly and still relaxed.

It was very spacious and had a

nice and pretty sofa at sitting area,

…and center table that kept dining

utensils under its glass covered top,

…where they laid a welcome

fruit plate when we arrived.

They have study and working table,

 ...that had various electrical outlet configurations designed to 
fit various types of electronic plugs from different countries.

It has a wide flat screen TV.

…and a well stocked mini- bar,
with coffee/tea making facilities.

It had a spacious closet filled with things

that would make our stay comfortable,

…and also had an in- room safe.

…the room had a very spacious

and luxurious toilet and bathroom,

…provided with signature toiletries,

The bathroom had fabulous rain shower,
I expected a bath tub for this room type

but unfortunately they did not have one.

Connectivity was not a problem as the room had

three landline phones, the first was on the bedside,

…the second on the working table,

and the third at the toilet.

 

It also had a fast and free

Wi- Fi internet connection.

Stray

 The hotel is located between two major malls

the Edsa Shagri- La Mall in one side,

 … and the SM Mega Mall on the other side,

…and there is a direct access to the upscale 

Shangri La Plaza Mall from the hotel, 





...making shopping easy and convenient.

 But there is really no need to go out of the

hotel as it was built as a resort hotel and serves

as an oasis right in the middle of an urban jungle.

It had a fabulous garden where one can 

have a leisurely walk, or just laze around

admiring the tropical greenery around you.

 The hotel had several in house shops- so there is 

 really no need to hit the nearby malls to shop

 The hotel is also known for its popular Chi Spa

where one can have a relaxing massage,

...or guests may avail of their numerous luxurious

health and beauty therapeutic regimens.

 Play

 The EDSA Shangri La pool, is a place full of 

memories for me and my family as  I cannot

count the number of times we stayed in the hotel.

 

 My eldest daughter literally grew up frolicking in

 the hotel pool until she now in her young teens.

 It was also the same pool where my

then two- year old  son Timothy taught 

himself how to swim on his own.

The pools remained the same- beautiful, 

and has been upgraded and redesigned

into a marvelous mini water park.

 

 The garden was well manicured, very clean

and superbly maintained and provides 

 amazingly vast greenery amidst on of the

busiest and chaotic district of urban Manila.

 The hotel also has a well equipped

gym that guests can use for free.

 Feast

 Although there are countless of dining options 

and  posh restaurants at the nearby Shangri- La Mall

and  SM Mega Mall, there is really no need to go out 

of the  hotel as EDSA Shangri- La has an excellent  

number of restaurants right inside  the hotel.

 The Lobby Lounge

 The  cavernous Lobby Lounge, is the 
place to go, if one wanted to relax,

...and ha a fill of delicious snacks,

 …and refreshing drinks.

It is  breathtakingly beautiful



…and transforms into a serene

and relaxing bar at night.

Heat Restaurant

Edsa Shangri- La has an excellent
house restaurant called Heat. 





 The restaurant buffet had a wonderful spread of
international dishes and  always crowded with
diners, especially at night, and understandably as
they serve one of the most massive buffets in the city.

 




It is a place where one could pig out like there is no tomorrow,

…as they serve some  of the most massive and extensive
delicious spread of international cuisine at the buffet area. 

Heat Restaurant is one of the best 
buffet restaurants in the Philippines.

Nothing can ever go wrong when

one stays in any Shangrila Hotel. 

Comfort, elegance and style, are all inclusive

wherever you stay, whatever room you choose.

From to comfortable DeLuxe Rooms

at the lower levels if you’re on a budget,

…to the more sophisticated De Luxe Room at

the upper levels of the hotel for an upgrade,

…or to the more exclusive Horizon Club Room

if one wants to splurge on a little bit of luxury.

Edsa Shangri- la has the right kind of room to your right

kind of budget, without compromising the quality of service.

I have yet to review Edsa Shangri- la’s Premier Room or Suite, that is-

 if I get rich and be able to afford it, I would love to stay in one in the future.
