No, but I like the Pen just the way it is. I get really sad pag yung mga kinalakihan ko nawawala. That's what I don't like about the PH, walang pagpa halaga sa lumang structures. Mga hotel sa ibang bansa pre war pa. I was also sad when they tore down Intercon. I had fond memories there too, yung jeepney, may jeep talaga sa loob ng resto and that's where you eat, nakaka aliw

The lobby of Manila Pen is a priceless wonder.

My wife and I love that place. It just feels warm and elegant. We usually go there during the Chinese New Year celebration.

FAKE NEWS daw..."Writing down" doesn't mean "Writing off"

On Friday 25 September, The Philippine Star published an incorrect and completely misleading headline and story claiming that The Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels was “writing off” The Peninsula Manila. The newspaper has misunderstood an accounting term of “writing down” the value of the hotel which was published in our group annual report. We have asked the publication for a correction. HSH remains committed to The Philippines where we have been operating the hotel since 1976 and the group has no intention of “writing off” The Peninsula Manila.
