Red Hotel – Cubao: Let’s Paint the Town Red
The color Red means stimulating and Vibrant. As Red is also my favorite color, this Hotel caught my attention immediately. Red Hotel Philippines is right in the heart of busy Cubao in Quezon City. As busy as the City looks, Red Hotel is the oasis in the middle of it all – close to all malls, restaurants, and transport systems making it very accessible.

Let’s paint the town RED
Isn’t it obvious? Red is the name of the game. I have observed it from their façade, fixture, beddings, and even coffee mugs! I also applaud the employees’ approach and their smiles whenever they greet guests. It gives me a sense that I belong! Consistency is key!
This newest 3-star hotel right in the middle of the busy Quezon City is all you need to get to your favorite destination. Entertainment places such as Ali Mall, Gateway Mall, Farmers Plaza, and Araneta City are all a stone-throw away from Red Hotel. Numerous restaurants are also near the place so you really do not have anything to worry about. It is not just the perfect choice of accommodation but I recommend this place because it literally is in the middle of it all.
The Red Hotel Lifestyle – Relax, Enjoy, Dream
When I travel, I always look for a place that makes me comfortable (like, who doesn’t?) I am always also looking for a posh yet affordable accommodation worthy for Instagram!
Relax
With over 199 rooms in 5 configurations, a rooftop bar (Dali Harum), cafe (Red Café), and a restaurant (La Muse), I must say, my stay was incredible. When I stayed here, I was billeted in a Standard Queen Room in the 15th floor. I admit, there were no nice views of the City from where I stayed but the room is generously spaced. You can also book for a spa appointment! (I know you want this!) And have a dip in their meter indoor pool, too!

Enjoy
I always tell my friends, pull me out of EDSA and I will get lost. Luckily, Red Hotel is just along this avenue. What’s a better place to stroll around than in Quezon City? I think of nothing else. From gastronomy to city exploring, QC has got you covered.
Nearby is the Araneta City which houses the Araneta Coliseum, Gateway Mall, Farmers Plaza, and SM Cubao. You can also have a gastronomy tour in Maginhawa Street near the University of the Philippines – Diliman and have an excursion at the Quezon City Memorial Circle.
Dream
Red Hotel is one of its kind in Quezon City and is really a place to look out for. Whether for solo, family, or business trip. This hotel will give you the right comfort. I personally recommend that you try the La Muse Restaurant and their Infinity Pool! The dreamy vibe of the hotel made my stay more comfortable!

Red Hotel is somewhat unique to my eyes. What surprised me most is that they put up a posh hotel right in the middle of Cubao. What I have observed is that there was no clothes cabinet in the room but there were hangers for me to hang my clothes.
The room had a cool temperature (which I like), and the WiFi signal is fair. The rooms also have an electronic sign for ‘Make Up Room,’ ‘Do Not Disturb,’ and the Doorbell. The bathroom and toilet room is spacious as well. Overall, my short but sweet stay was good and I personally recommend this hotel especially for families and travelers. Red Hotel is also close to major bus lines along EDSA if you like to explore more of the South and some destinations up North!
