Dayrooms in NAIA-1

Dayrooms in NAIA-1 are an often asked question. Every day we get up to 3 inquiries of travelers who would like to reserve one of these day rooms. But it’s complicatedly.
The rooms
Twelve air-conditioned “day rooms” can be rented for PHP 840 (USD 19) each for 24 hours. The rooms are located on the fourth floor of Terminal 1 right beside the Sampaguita lounge. So these rooms are within the departure area of NAIA-1 and guests must have checked-in and must have passed immigration and security check.
Each room, measuring 3×3 meters, has a private toilet and shower.
Enough space
Private bathrooom
Communication Problem
Visitors of our website complain that they can’t get any communication information. We wrote several e-mails to MIAA and NAIA management. We never received an answer although the mails were received and read. Why?
Today we called NAIA-1’s Passenger & Customer Relations and got the answer. There is no dedicated e-mail address and no website for these dayrooms. All you can do to reserve, is calling them:
+63 2 877 1109
A friendly lady told us that guests need to have checked-in and must have passed immigration and security checks. That’s nice!
How the heck can you get a longer nap when check-in counters open only 3 hours before take-off?
Questions and more questions
- Can transit-passengers have access to these dayrooms?
If yes, how do they have to proceed? - Can transit-passengers have access to these dayrooms when their connecting flight departs from another terminal?
- How can departing passengers check-in 8 or 12 or more hours before departure?
Again a marketing disaster
Airport hotels and dayrooms are a real need for an international airport. In many airports one finds luxurious hotels with their astronomic rates (e.g. Zurich Radisson Blu from CHF 179 ) or good hotels with absolutely reasonable rates (e.g. Sama-Sama Express – Airside Transit Hotel in Kuala Lumpur from USD 60)
Other airports have a dedicated page on their website, e.g. Singapore Changi Airport. MIAA and NAIA management do not feel concerned. Such a page can be programmed in one day or so and would make so many tired travelers happy.
The only contact possibility is above local phone number (landline).
Our offer
rwx-support, owner of Silent-Gardens and followyou.ch, offers to program a presentation page and a booking system for free. This page can be integrated in MIAA’s existing website or can be driven as a stand-alone website. This offer is valid until April 30, 2015. Catch it! Target date would be June 15.

How can a departing passenger check in to this room if we are waiting for 12hrs?
We have no idea on how it works.
Best advice, call them +63 2 877 1109

The tumblr page can only be seen, if one has a tumblr account.
Could you please answer these 4 questions:
1. Who runs the NAIA-1 dayroom? Company? Government agency? MIAA?
2. Why do you not hire a professional web developer to create a useful website?
3. How can one get to theses dayroom? Please describe for transit and departing passengers?
4. How can a normal passenger use your rooms when check-in opens only 3 hours before take-off?
Best regards.

+63-2-854-7549 is the direct phone number I was given by the airport after calling the one listed in this blog. When I called today, they were already full and had no vacancies. However, I was able to make reservations for my trip next week. Rachel answered the phone, took my name and arrival time and quoted me a price of 2700 pesos for a standard room or 3100 for a superior room. She said if I called from Terminal 2 after arriving they would send somebody over to pick me up and bring me to the landside airport hotel. This price is a lot different than the blog says too. It isn’t 19 $USD, but closer to $56 or $65 per room. I can report back on my experience staying there if people have questions.
Dear Senmu,
You mix up two different things. This blog article describes the dayrooms available inside NAIA-1 terminal.
What you describe is the Manila Airport Hotel outside of NAIA-1 terminal.
But anyway thank you for the information you provided.
Cheers, waebi
Thanks for clarifying that. I discovered there is a different transit hotel available in Terminal 3. It looks professionally managed. See http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g298452-d8621938-r308511003-The_Wings_Transit_Lounge-Pasay_Metro_Manila_Luzon.html
Looks good. Here some more information:
The 400 square meter facility is a “pay-per-use” space that people can access for an average of PHP 500 or USD 5 per person.
For PHP 500, guests can avail themselves of a two-hour stay at the lounge, with access to a buffet prepared by celebrity chef Pablo “Boy” Logro. For an extended stay, guests must shell out an additional PHP 175 an hour.
For guests in need of a nap, capsules are provided for PHP 880 for a minimum of five hours’ stay and a meal. Guests who want a nap, a meal and a shower must be prepared to pay PHP 1,000. An added hour of stay costs PHP 200 more.
Like a hotel, the lounge has twin rooms that cost PHP 1,600 for five hours and PHP 350 for every hour extension. Bunk rooms good for 3 persons cost PHP 2,100 for five hours’ stay, with every hour extension costing PHP 450. A family room that accommodates four persons costs PHP 2,600 with every additional hour costing PHP 350.
Hand and foot services, such as manicure – pedicure and foot scrubs, are priced from PHP 300 to PHP 1,000, while massages cost from PHP 350 to PHP 675. A shower costs P300 while barber services range from PHP 150 to PHP 300.
