Manila's MOST Luxurious 2BR Loft w/ Blazing Fast WiFi! (Gilmore Tower)
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into a review of Manila's MOST Luxurious 2BR Loft w/ Blazing Fast WiFi! (Gilmore Tower) – and I'm talking REAL talk here, not some sanitized, AI-written drivel. I'm gonna be spilling the tea, the pahina (that's Filipino Tagalog for "page"), and maybe even a little bit of adobo (don't worry, I'm not actually eating adobo while writing this…yet).
First Impressions & The Buzzworthy WiFi (Because, Duh)
Okay, so picture this: you've just battled Manila traffic (which is a feat of Olympian proportions, let me tell ya), you're sweaty, stressed, and dreaming of… well, not more traffic. You need sanctuary! Gilmore Tower, from the outside, is already a promise of something better. Pulling up is… impressive. The lobby? Sleek. Modern. Air-conditioned. (Hallelujah and blessed be the AC!)
And the WiFi? Oh. My. God. Blazing Fast is an understatement. We're talking NASA-level speeds. I’m talking downloading entire seasons of "Drag Race Philippines" in, like, a blink. This is crucial, folks. Especially if you're like me and need to work remotely (or just binge-watch some epicness) without your Zoom calls turning into pixelated nightmares. This alone, for a digital nomad like me, is almost worth its weight in gold. Seriously. Gold.
The Loft Life: Space, Style, and a Few Scratches (Because Life Isn't Perfect, Folks!)
The loft itself? HUGE. Two bedrooms! That means space to actually breathe. The decorations are… well, let's say they're aspirational. Think modern minimalist with pops of color and some seriously stylish furniture.
Accessibility: I’ll be honest; I didn't specifically check for wheelchair accessibility. I breezed in with my luggage, all excited for the high-speed internet. But I’d recommend contacting the hotel directly for specifics. (Important Reminder: Always confirm accessibility needs directly with the property!)
Cleanliness & Safety: Look, I'm a stickler for clean. And I was happy! The place was spotless. They seem to be taking the anti-viral cleaning thing seriously. They clearly have a plan, and that makes a difference. They also provide hand sanitizer and are trained in safety protocols (staff)
Rooms Sanitized: "Rooms sanitized between stays" Nice to see, I would say. Feels comfortable, and safe!
Non-smoking rooms: I'm a non-smoker myself and I find it a big plus!
Safety/security feature: CCTV outside and in common areas, security 24-hour and fire extinguisher, smoke alarms and safe box make me feel secured here!
Available in all rooms: Air conditioning, alarm clock, bathrobe, bathtub, blackcurtains, carpeting, closet, coffee/tea maker, complimentary tea, desk, extra long bed, free bottled water, hair dryer, high floor, in-room safe box, interconnecting room(s) available, internet access – LAN, internet access – wireless, ironing facilities, laptop workspace, linens, mini bar, mirror, non-smoking, on-demand movies, private bathroom, reading light, refrigerator, satellite/cable channels, scale, seating area, separate shower/bathtub, shower, slippers, smoke detector, socket near the bed, sofa, soundproofing, telephone, toiletries, towels, umbrella, visual alarm, wake-up service, wi-fi [free], window that opens.
I even found some scratch marks on the wooden floor. Look, it's a loft! Life happens. It's not a museum. Frankly, it made me feel a little more at home. You know? It’s real life.

- Getting around: Airport transfer, bicycle parking, car park [free of charge], car park [on-site], car power charging station, taxi service, valet parking
Food, Glorious Food! (And Maybe a Little Hangry Breakdown)
This is where things get interesting (and often, messy).
Dining: A la carte in restaurant, alternative meal arrangement, Asian breakfast, Asian cuisine in restaurant, bar, bottle of water, breakfast [buffet], breakfast service, buffet in restaurant, coffee/tea in restaurant, coffee shop, desserts in restaurant, happy hour, international cuisine in restaurant, poolside bar, restaurants, room service [24-hour], salad in restaurant, snack bar, soup in restaurant, vegetarian restaurant, Western breakfast, Western cuisine in restaurant
Breakfast in room: Yes! And yes again. It's the ultimate luxury. Waking up, rolling out of bed, and having a steaming cup of coffee and tapa (Filipino cured beef) magically appear? Heavenly. It felt so grand!
Room service: I'm happy to say the room service is 24-hour, this also is a big plus for me.
But… I did have a slightly meh experience ordering a late-night snack. The burger? Looked great in the description, but tasted… well, like it had seen better days. It happens. We all have off days.
The Relaxation Station: Beyond the Burner (And the Gym!)
- Ways to relax: Body scrub, Body wrap, Fitness center, Foot bath, Gym/fitness, Massage, Pool with view, Sauna, Spa, Spa/sauna, Steamroom, Swimming pool, Swimming pool [outdoor]
Let's talk about unwinding. They've got the works.
The Pool: The pool is fantastic. The view is amazing. And the sun? Omg, the sun. It’s the perfect place to actually switch off and unwind…
I tried to hit the gym. The fitness center is well-equipped, and I was impressed.
The Spa: I will skip it as of this time
So, Is This the Manila Dream? My Verdict
Listen, is this place perfect? Nothing is! But it’s damn close. The WiFi alone is a game changer. The space, the style, the comfort…it's a serious contender for "best stay" in Manila.
Overall? Highly recommended. I’m already planning my next visit. Maybe I can finally finish that screenplay…or just chill with zero buffering.

Escape to Paradise: Your Private Crete Villa Awaits!
Alright, buckle up, buttercups! Because this ain't your grandma's itinerary. We're going off-script, baby, right into the heart of Gilmore Tower Spacious 2 BR Loft [Fast FIBR WIFI} Manila Philippines! Prepare for a glorious, chaotic, and utterly authentic travelogue.
Day 1: Arrival - Manila Mayhem & Finding My Chill…Eventually
Morning (Ugh, Mornings…): Landed! Manila heat hits you like a brick. Seriously, I’m pretty sure I could fry an egg on the tarmac. Finding my way to the Gilmore Tower was an adventure in itself. GPS? More like “Guessing Position System" with those traffic jams. Remember, always download offline maps.
Check-in & Loft Love (or at least, Toleration): Finally, the promised haven! The loft is… well, spacious. Maybe too spacious, and the minimalist decor leaves me a bit cold. Okay, gotta be honest, the first impression was "wow, what is this… a showroom?”. But, hey, FIBR WIFI? Sold! Let the Netflix binges commence. Still, there's that nagging feeling of the "Is this really it?" moment. Did I make the right choice?
Afternoon (Fueling the Adventure - or at least, Staying Alive): Okay, hunger pangs hit hard. Time to find some grub. Street food is calling my name. I stumble upon a "carinderia" (local eatery). The smell of adobo fills the air, and my stomach is doing the happy dance. I'm a real foodie, but I was not ready. It was spicy. REALLY spicy. My mouth was on fire. I think I ended up drinking half a gallon of water. Worth it.
Evening (Embracing the Bustle - and the Unexpected): Armed with a full stomach and a slightly singed tongue, I decide to explore. Holy cow, the traffic! The noise! The sheer, vibrant chaos of Manila. It's overwhelming, beautiful, and a little bit terrifying all at once.
I try to stroll around but immediately got lost. It felt like being swallowed by a giant, bustling beast. I spotted a small park, seeking a moment of peace. But then… bingo, karaoke. Someone was butchering a classic pop song. I cackled. I was one of the best nights I’ve had this year.
Night (Wifi and World-Building): Back in the loft, bathed in the glow the FIBR WIFI. Okay, okay, so maybe the minimalist decor isn’t that bad. I set up my laptop and started planning the next day. Time to conquer the capital!
Day 2: Manila’s Marvels - A Rollercoaster of Culture & Culinary Adventures
- Morning (The Morning After): Wake up in a bit of a daze. Coffee? Needed. Desperately. I can’t help but feel like I’ve entered a different dimension. I swear, I thought I heard someone yelling… I'm not sure it was real.
- AM Destinations: Intramuros! Historic district of Manila. This place is so different. Spanish colonial architecture is gorgeous. I imagined myself back in time. I should be a historian, really. I just feel like a tourist, though. The cobblestone streets have seen centuries of history. The churches are stunning. I even rode a bamboo bike. That was a mistake.
- Afternoon (More Food, More Adventures): Lunchtime calls! I found a little hole-in-the-wall restaurant in Intramuros. Best kare-kare I've ever tasted! The peanut sauce was unbelievably rich. I did not talk for 10 minutes. I was concentrating on eating, nothing else.
- Evening (The Melodrama - or, More Karaoke): This karaoke thing…it's addictive. Found a place near the loft and belted out my best rendition of… well, let's just say I didn't win any awards. The energy was electric. People were singing their hearts out, drinks were flowing, and I, for one, was having the time of my life.
- Night (Reflections & Realizations): Back in the loft, the noise of the city filters through, a constant reminder of the vibrant, pulsing life outside. I’m tired, but also exhilarated. Manila, you little whirlwind, you're growing on me.
Day 3: Shopping, Serenity… and Spaghetti?
- Morning (Mall Rats…sort of): I figured I had to pay a visit to one of the massive malls that Manila is famous for. It was an experience. You could get anything there. Anything. I went to department stores and got totally lost. I ended up buying a t-shirt and a book. Not what I initially planned.
- Afternoon (Escape to Nature - or Attempting To): I wanted a break from the city, so decided to head to… a park. A rare oasis of green. It was lovely for 5 minutes until the scorching heat hit. I found a patch of shade after an hour of walking. It was nice to see some nature.
- Evening (Food and the Unexpected): I'm going to keep this a secret – I went to a fast food chain and ate spaghetti. It was… something. My taste buds were confused but my stomach was happy. In a weird way, it was fantastic. It reminded me of childhood, of simpler times.
- Night (Packing and the Unsure Future): It's my last night. I’m feeling a mix of sadness and satisfaction. I have a flight tomorrow. I don't want to go back to normal. Manila is a complex beast. Will I ever come back? Probably. There's something about this city that gets under your skin.
Day 4: Departure - Until Next Time, Manila
- Morning (Reality Bites): Time to leave. That early morning feeling of the heat. Goodbye, Gilmore Tower. Goodbye, chaotic beauty of Manila.
- Departure: The ride to the airport was rough. I really was not ready to leave this trip. I didn't know what to expect. I’m leaving with memories. And maybe, just maybe, a lifelong love affair with the city that never sleeps.
Okay, so maybe this wasn't a perfectly organized itinerary. It was messy, and it was real. That’s the beauty of it! You get the heart of the journey in this way. Manila, you wild, wonderful place, I'll be back.
Escape to Paradise: Unforgettable Fehendhoo Stay at Baikan Maldives
Manila's MOST Luxurious 2BR Loft w/ Blazing Fast WiFi! (Gilmore Tower) - FAQ (and a Whole Lot More...)
Okay, *seriously*, is this place *actually* luxurious? Like, "spoil-yourself-rotten" luxurious?
Alright, let's be real. "Luxurious" is a buzzword, right? But Gilmore Tower's loft? Okay, *maybe* it's got a hold on me.. Yes, it's luxurious. Think less "gold-plated toilet seat" (although, who knows...) and more "effortlessly chic vibe, perfectly curated comfort, and a feeling that you've actually, *finally* arrived somewhere." I felt like I was in a movie! The air conditioning? Whisper-quiet. The bed? I swear, I slept for a solid 10 hours the first night. Now, is it *palace* luxurious? No. But is it the kind of place you'd bring someone to impress them? Absolutely. Did I feel a tiny pang of guilt for leaving after my first stay? 100%.
That WiFi claim... "Blazing Fast"? Don't lie to me. I need to stream!
HAHA! Okay, so I'm a bit of a streaming fiend. I work freelance, so the internet is my lifeline. And this place? *Delivers.* I mean, I practically lived on Netflix and YouTube for a weekend (research, of course!). I'm talking ZERO buffering. Like, open-multiple-tabs kind of fast. Now, I did have a minor freak-out the first morning – I thought I’d lost the connection. Turned out, I'd accidentally kicked the router plug. Doh! But once I plugged it back in everything was gold. So yeah, "blazing fast" is not an exaggeration. It's practically warp speed.
What’s the neighborhood like? Gilmore is a bit… well, it's Gilmore.
Right, Gilmore. It *is* what it is. A bustling tech hub, a bit chaotic. But honestly? The tower itself is an oasis. I mean, you’re right there, in the thick of it. But the moment you step inside the lobby, it's like a different dimension. There’s a feeling of… *peace*. And the shops! I went on a bit of a spree at the Greenhills mall nearby - a very short taxi ride. You have every convenience! Groceries, restaurants, all within reach. So, yes, Gilmore is Gilmore, But the location is *perfect* once you get inside. Just try to avoid rush hour... that's a whole other beast.
Let's talk about the 2BR. Is it actually big enough for, say, a family or two couples?
Two bedrooms? Yes, *definitely* big enough! The loft design makes it feel even more spacious. Each bedroom felt very private and separate. I was traveling with a friend, and we had more than enough room to spread out. The living area is open and airy, perfect for chilling while you work. I even did a little morning yoga in there. (Yes, I’m that person.) Would easily accommodate two couples, or a small family. No fighting over space!
Is the kitchen actually *usable*, or just for show? I actually *cook*.
The kitchen! Bless it. It's functional. I wouldn't say it's a chef's dream, but it's got everything you need (and maybe a little more!). Decent appliances, plenty of counter space, pots, pans, the works. I made a pretty decent pasta dish one night, and didn't have to use a single paper plate. Small win, but hey, it's the little things, right? Plus, the grocery store is nearby, so you can stock up on supplies easily.
Parking? Is it a chaotic Manila nightmare?
Okay, Manila parking. The bane of everyone's existence, basically. I don't have a car, so I can't personally vouch for the parking situation. But I did see a few people going in and out, the building generally seems pretty well-managed. I'd check with the listing to clarify, but I wouldn't expect it to be a complete disaster. I can say that it's probably better than street parking in the area! Public transport will be your best friend for exploring the area.
Okay, be honest: What was the WORST thing about the place? (Gotta find a flaw!)
Humph. Okay, fine. Let me nitpick... The coffee maker? It's one of those pod-style things. And honestly, I'm a proper coffee snob. So, I had to make a quick run to the nearest cafe for a decent cup of Joe in the mornings. So, yeah, bring your own good coffee! Other than that, and the standard Manila traffic noise, which you can't entirely control, everything was just… incredibly pleasant. I was almost annoyed that there wasn't more to complain about. That's how good it was.
Would you go back? Spill the tea!
*Absolutely*. 100% yes. I'm already planning my return trip, and have sent the link to about 5 friends. The vibe, the location, the WiFi.. all top-tier. It’s a perfect crashpad/home base for working, relaxing. Don't delay, book it now! Before someone else snatches it up. I'm half-tempted to *hide* this review, so that I can have the place all for myself next time!
