“Fancy Makati classic, service divides”

Raffles Makati is the city's fancy 2012 five-star — spacious loved rooms like the two-queen artists suite, polished butler service, kind restaurant staff, and a ninth-floor breakfast with good atmosphere and fresh, homestyle dishes that suited a family reunion and wedding. Most call the service excellent and cost-effective; one guest dissented hard, calling service lousy — the concierge especially — remarkable for Makati's most expensive address, and another disliked the breakfast buffet specifically.
