It’s not everyday that I or we, as a family, get to stay at a hotel. So, whenever we are invited for a staycation and the schedule permits, we grab the opportunity. Who wouldn’t?
We were very fortunate enough to be invited by the gracious and lovely ladies of Sofitel Philippine Plaza Manila, Blessy Townes and Jane Santiago, to have a 3-day/2-night staycation at Club Millésime’s Club Room a few weeks back!
We were welcomed by Jane at the lobby to bring us straight to the 10th floor where Club Millésime is located.
Club Millésime is a hotel within a hotel that offers impeccable service where guests get that exclusive vibe. Only Club Room guests can access the Club Millèssime Lounge as well as the use of the club’s facilities and its perks.
The Club Millèsime Lounge offers afternoon snacks.
Variety of pastries and assorted bread.
Fresh fruits, dried fruits and nuts.
Canapes, macarons and even local delicacies like suman.
But what I really loved was their honey truffle! I almost died!
The truffle flavor was well incorporated with the honey which I fondly partnered with nuts! So, if you get the chance to stay at Club Millésime, request for this because this is not offered in any other restaurant in Sofitel.
Club Millésime also offers complimentary a la carte breakfast, cocktails and daily wine tasting from 5 to 7PM.
They also have a library (Yes! Can you believe it?), a playroom for the kids and you can even borrow DVDs for your movie night in the room.
This was where our personalized express check-in was processed while having fresh pineapple juice and an afternoon buffet snack.
Right after having our afternoon snack, we were immediately whisked to our room.
We were given adjacent rooms – for us and the kids.
First thing I noticed was the fruit platter and paté with dried fruits to partner with the complimentary wine. Of course, right beside it was a welcome note from the General Manager, Adam Laker.
Our room has a king sized bed with really soft beddings.
The kids were provided with 2 separate beds in their own room.
Obviously, my kids already made themselves comfortable. Look at their body’s contour on the bed.
Sofitel boasts of their “MyBed” experience wherein you can tailor fit your pillows to your own preference.
A MyBed Pillow Menu is placed by your bedside table. You can customize your pillows to ensure wellness and optimum comfort with selections that range from fluffy, firm and even adjustable pillows that follow your body’s contour. All pillows are filled with special hypo-allergenically treated duck down and feathers. But even if you opt to stick with the original pillows, it is still absolutely comfortable and probably one of the best (if not THE best) you will ever try!
Both rooms have coffee and tea making facilities.
Minibar.
In-room safe (This is very important to me).
LCD TV, cable TV and a spacious work-desk where I placed my gadgets and blogged during the evening + complimentary internet access throughout our stay.
A spacious bathroom that has a separate tub and shower stall with rain shower complete with bathroom essentials in simple and beautiful packaging and…
… LANVIN toiletries! Very posh! The refreshing orange scent that practically stays on your body almost half of the day was just wonderful!
Of course, our rooms have private balconies as well.
With views of the cityscape.
The beautiful pool and Manila Bay, what more can anyone ask for?
Beautiful sunset shot from our room.
And this is the glorious view that greeted us for 3 mornings straight!
Oh! Club Millésime guests are really spoiled! We were surprised when a housekeeper rang our doorbell and gave us a bottle of Mango Rum Liqueur with some pastries.
Can be enjoyed as is, taken on the rocks or with crushed ice. You can also use it for cooking or create an exciting cocktail drink to enjoy with friends! Mango Rum Liqueur is locally made using Philippine Mango and premium aged rum by Destileria Limtuaco & Company, Inc.
See! We are so ready for our staycation!
Already having the time of my life and it’s just our first day!
