White Knight Hotel Intramuros

What a disaster of a hotel. First they wanted us to pay a deposit of 2000P having not put that in their conditions of booking. (We didn't pay it). There was no wifi even though it was heavily promoted. When shown to the room there was no water for making coffee though they provided nescafe and a kettle. One of the cups still had lipstick on from a previous user. The place was generally dirty. Only one toothbrush kit was provided for two people. The shower had one setting. On or off. You couldn't change the temperature (though it was warm enough). The bathroom floor had wall tiles which were very slippery when wet. Really dangerous. The breakfast was OK though they served nescafe and the service was very slow. And the hotel is in desperate need of renovation. (it was last renovated in 2012). Upkeep has obviously been minimal since then. One piece of good news to end with: We are told the front desk is open 24/7 before it adds if you intend to arrive outside those hours you should let the hotel know in advance. Make of that what you will! Will I stay there again? Definitely not. Ever!

Though the rooms need renovations and better cleaning, this is a budget hotel, after all. So, you will get what you paid for. The best part of this hotel is the location within Intramuros. Despite the hot and humid weather, I was able to walk to key sites withing Intramuros. The reception seemed to lack in its tour arranging ability, but I was able to charter a TukTuk at a nearby museum, to go all the way to Malacañan Palace area.

A home away from home, since pandemic days. A refuge in a historical place. Though it has seen better days, it still has good vibes for the memories. Spotty internet then, spotty internet now, but hey, were here to enjoy the surrounding sceneries. #RP

Just arrived 2 hours ago. 8june2025 @ 7pm its now 820pm. Booked on Agoda with an email confirmation, but was asked for payment at the front desk, had to provide confirmation email. Saw a rat during check-in run into the security office from the restaurant area (will not be eating here for sure). No water at the hotel, wifi is between 1 bar and 2 bars in the room. Intermittent connection. No soap in the soap dispenser in the comfort room/bathroom. There is no phone to contact the front desk, up and down the stairs you go for everything. There is no elevator. Pesos 2k deposit for what? You get coffee. Aircon is loud, but working. Shower faucet does not close 100% so dripping water all night (after the water returned around 915pm I do not recommend this hotel to anyone. Short stay so i will deal with it since its already paid for. Workers were quick to give water in buckets which was helpful

Location is the best thing about this. Right in the heart of Intramuros and theres a backdoor going to Barbaras to San Agustin church and other cafes you want to visit when here. Its an old looking place which has its charm but can feel like the hotel from the Shining at times. Air conditioning was falling apart still did its job after awhile. Very budget friendly aswell, great place to be at if you plan to explore Intramuros

For someone who is not normally particular with food, this restaurant is not recommended and would really disappoint a tourist' experience. The price doesn't match the quality of the food. I ordered the white knight's salad while my partner ordered the filipino cuisine (i think that's the name) which has the sausage and longanisa as the main food with 2 eggs. Price was around 300+ each or close to it and both were TERRIBLE for its price. The longanisa and sausage are not even real like - I mean it's just highly processed foods similar to the longganisa of Jollibee in terms of looks and not the ones serves in different provinces or thise from Bistro Groups. The salad on the other hand only contains lettuce with a VERY few slices of other vegetables like tomato, cucumber, and white onion - plus two prawn 🍤. The taste is dominated by mayo and cheese 😅 How did we manage to almost finished our food? We're just hungry and don't like wasting food but it's very disappointing.

Worst hotel ever, all of their staff are worst i can tell that their employees are not welcoming because they don’t greet their guest plus they have a lot of OJT’s and i saw that they asked their OJT’s to clean the hall way which is that should be the work of their janitors, i didnt saw any janitors and the AC on the room is broken, the tv is only for display, i ordered one of their menu it was overpriced and didn’t taste right their kitchen is disgusting, I feel like i only wasted my money. I don’t recommend this hotel.

I don't know about the other rooms but do not stay on Room 211 (double deluxe) . There is a foul smell in the room due to the nearby garbage dump on the alley just beside the room below. It smelled like cat feces. We didn't manage to change rooms because apparently they're fully booked. We instead had the room sprayed with linen spray. It only masked the smell temporarily. The culprit might be the old-fashioned sliding windows not providing a proper seal from the outside. You can hear noise coming from the alley below as well as the outside hallway. AC is working albeit not cold enough. The thermostat, swivel and cover is broken. The ac filter was also not clean and clogged with dirt. Bar refrigerator knob is broken. You can cool liquids if you put them in the top shelf near the knob. Outlets are behind the bed and behind the bedside lamp and are hard to reach. You will need to move the bed and desk table so you can use them. Bed was okay. Haven't got any bed bugs during our stay. Bathroom was okay. No bidet, pail, or bucket. You'll have to clean yourself american style. The hot water regulator is not calibrated right. You only get either too hot or too cold, no in-between. Bath soap, shampoo, toothbrush and toothpaste was provided. No room slippers though. Only two bath towels provided. No bath mat so expect a wet bathroom floor. Location is ideal due to being close to most of the popular tourist attractions. Their prices is also relatively cheap.

It can be a challenge finding a nice hotel at a budget price, and at a good location, too. White Knight fits the bill, though, with standard rooms below P2,000, and with soft, comfortable beds and old-world furnishings. We even got a room with a bathtub for less than P3,000. We definitely felt that the hotel is consistent with the spirit of Intramuros. It's a great place to have a staycation and to just go out to dine in one of Intramuros' cultural restaurants. It's also a great base to explore the walled city at a leisurely pace, even moreso since it is at the Plaza San Luis Complex, close to other historical buildings and also cultural restaurants like Barbara's. San Agustin Church is also just across the plaza. You will feel right in the heart of the Intramuros, as we did, when we stayed at this hotel. The hotel has a restaurant of its own, too, with the option of al fresco dining among ancient walls and a wishing well. This is where we had dinner and it was perfect.
