Manila Peninsula Hotel is ideally located in the heart of Makati, Metro Manila's business and financial district, and is close to Manila's finest shopping malls. The Manila Peninsula Hotel is a short 9 kilometers, 30 minutes' drive, from Ninoy Aquino International Airport and a 7 kilometer, 20 minutes drive from the Manila Domestic Airport.

Although the Ninoy Aquino International Airport is well served by some air-conditioned taxis and the airport is only 12 kilometers south of Manila's city centre, the city's unpredictable traffic congestion means by far the best way to escape the heat and enjoy the ride in comfort is to take care a chauffeur-driven hotel limousine.
