When my wife and I decided to leave the corporate world and focus on our business and raising our children, we also see to it that we would not deprive ourselves, once in a while, leisure time and simply enjoy life.
Good thing is, with our business, we also somewhat have the flexibility to schedule this leisure time on off-peak days so we can surely enjoy without traffic and crowd problems.
It was end of May 2019 that we take time to have a short staycation at Privato Hotel Ortigas.
Privato Hotel Ortigas, is located at 706 Shaw Boulevard, Pasig City. It is a 23-storey Italian-inspired business and lifestyle hotel in the Ortigas, Pasig block that features 177 rooms, 3 ballrooms, 2 conference rooms, a Rooftop Pool & Gym, and a Roof Deck Lounge. It is strategically located right across the developing Capitol Commons and the Ortigas Central Business District. It is in close proximity to main roads as well as major shopping malls and neighborhood restaurants.
It also opened up two new hotels at Quezon City (82 Scout Castor St., Tomas Morato, Quezon City) and Makati City (9745 Kamagong St., San Antonio, Makati City). Though we have not been in those two new hotels yet - but will surely visit one of these days (when this Enhanced Community Quarantine is over).
Whenever we book our stay here, we always choose either 1 Bedroom Suite King Bed with Kitchen Non Smoking or Deluxe Room Two Queen Size Beds Non Smoking (we prefer the later as we want spacious bed). It has a standard check-in and check-out time of 2:00pm and 12:00nn respectively. Both bookings already include the following amenities:

Upon check-in, a deposit fee of 1,000 is required. And those that are considered children are 12 years old and below.
If you will just be on staycation, this hotel is a good choice. Another plus factor for us, the hotel as LBC nearby - just in case we need to ship orders from our business.
For us we did not have the buffet breakfast since our children almost always have their good sleep whenever we are at hotels; thus, waking them up early in the morning to meet the 10am cut off is a bit rude for them :). We do get buffet breakfast once in a while and I must say they do offer a wide variety of food that can be enjoyed by both adults and children.
What my daughter always long for whenever we have this sort of staycation is the hotel's pool, located on the 23rd floor. It is exclusively available to hotel guests with the following schedule:
- 7:00AM - 10:00PM (Tuesday - Sunday)
- 2:00PM - 10:00PM (Monday)
Monday morning is their scheduled cleaning for the pool, so it is best to have a swim on Mondays and Tuesdays. And since we almost always book on weekdays, we can swim with only a few (or sometimes, it is just us) people on the pool.
When this is all over, my kids deserve some leisure time like this :)
