I am new to this Forum and I thought that I would start by giving my experiences and information of Manila to the fellow members.
I have been visiting Manila since 2007 on business, consistently about four times a year, each trip about four nights, except for one time one week with a girl on a trip to Cebu and Bohol.
I became addicted to filipina and the night life in Philippines (I only know Manila) I made several trips just for the night life also...
For the first time, I am planning to visit Angeles on my trip in two weeks, really looking forward to it, dispite some warnings I've read about Angeles local government closing all but 40 bars in the city by January 2014, and resulting in heightened tentions in the areas, raids and forced closures by the police.
Manila
Hotel -
I always stay at Pan pacific hotel in Malate near Robinson's mall. Lots of restaurants and shops, dance clubs and commedy clubs around to have fun with your girls and easy access to all bar areas so the location is good. Room rates are not bad for the quality, and has buffet breakfast on the top floor. I have stayed at Sofitel, Hyatte, Marriott, Dusit Thani, Harritage, also but i keep going back to Pan Pacific now.
Bars and places to go for girls -
Based on my experience, it's broken into four categories, International bar, KTV Japanese style karaoke bar, massage/naughty girl house, dormitories. I have experiences in first three but to keep my initial post easier read, I will post my info on International bars only.
International Bars.
In Manila, you need to know floor manager (FM) at any bar, if you go as a newbie, they will roll you with all the extra charges and foreigner rates which can become outrageous. So best to get FM name from someone here or at other web sites like Manilatonight.com before you head out.
Asian Entertainment Network (AEN)
On Roxas blvd just south of Baclaran church, first one of the strip of bars.
This is considered to be one of the best for the quality of girls. 150+ girls on premise, large stage, naked dancers, starlets, comfortable sofas, many VIP rooms, today, many Koreans, some whites and Japanese.
The owner here is filipino, ex police officer of high level so they never get raided before. (this changed last month when they got raided for the first time ever, since the new mayor of Pasay city) they are back in operation today.
Charges (these are local rates)
SML - 135
LD (one hour per girl you table) - 600
Gimmick (quicky in VIP room) - 2500 to 3000 depending on girl
BF - 6000
No door charge if you have good FM same with all other bars below.
if you want name of best FM here PM me.
Lala land (former Area 51, and before that Fantastik)
On Roxas blvd just north of Airport road in Paranaque.
This is also considered one of the best one in Manila for the quality of girls. modern ambiance and comfortable sofas. smaller.
Owned by Japanese, sister bar to Liberty Island, they get raided a lot in the past several years.
Charges are basically same as AEN
If you want name of good FM here, PM me.
Liberty Island
On Roxas blvd, 4 bars south of AEN
Same quality as Lala land, its sister bar, also modern decor, comfortable sofas
Same charges
If you want name of good FM here, PM me.
Universe (former Campus, Miss Universal)
On Harrison st. north of Antonio Arnaiz ave.
Since the large raid and bust 3 years ago when all managers sent to jail for almost one year, owner of bar spent over 5 million php to get them all out finally before a chiristmas, they have gone down hill.
however, you still see some new unexperienced girls here to start out in the industry. tables and chairs.
Charges are basically the same as above, except some drinks are cheaper.
Infinity
On access road along Roxas blvd next to Traders hotel
Opened earlier this year, good stage and ambiance, quality of girls is also high.
Same charges
If you want name of good FM here, PM me.
East Asia
On access road about 200m south of Infinity
One of the older place.
Girls here seem to be on chubby side, if you prefer slim girls, may not be the place for you.
Costs are basically the same as above but this bar really works on you for extra charges, I stopped going to it for this reason.
Airforce One
Ninoy Aquino ave, south of air port
This is considered highest of quality bar, I believe this to be a sister bar to Pegasus in QC
You will find the best quality pretty girls here but expect them to be snobby and veterans.
Charges are higher than the above bars, BF at 10000+ depends on girl.
On the second floor they have massage place called flight 168, I think I paid 3000 for a small room with a shower there and girl I picked, massage followed by the deeds. I have not been there in three years so it may have changed.
I been to most of the Internatinal bars in Manila and other establishments including the former LA cafe, EDSA complex etc...but the above places are the ones i would recommend for Manila if you are not on a tight budget, but want a quality for the limited time you have to spend in Manila....since I usually have only few nights, I rather pay a little higher to get higher % of the quality I want while Im in Manila.
Hope the above info is helpful.
