    This building is a war survivor of Battle of Manila from world war 2. Nestled alongside Roxas Boulevard, it portrays its Sapnish Revival Architecture surrounded by decommissioned areoplanes turned into restaurants and also 7 floors of war memories inside the building. Quite impressive renovation which won various awards for post war heritage maintenance. Unfortunately I was late the day I went there (closes 5pm) and couldnt go inside the building but was able to grab some coffee and delectable cheese at the restaurant. Must visit if you are a history buff. PS: This is privately owned by Luilliers family and is a events place outside of the resto / war memories.

    Palacio de Memoria is an unexpected experience. You certainly don't expect a wonderful museum type place in this part of town with a nice romantic Italian restaurant and a cocktail bar in an old repurposed airplane. As soon as enter and turn right, you're greeted with a couple of old airplanes parked on the lawn and when you turn in to the left, you're greeted with a wonderfully preserved house that's been converted into a show piece personal museum. I'll definitely be coming back soon

    Nice place to visit in the city. The good 1. (If not crowded) big space to unwind 2. The museum, palace and airplane has nice art and antiques that you can appreciate 3. There is a resto, Loggia cibo, you won't have to worry about anything. It's just a bit pricey because the museum and palace is small. You can opt to just eat at Loggia and enjoy the ambience. And also there is a real embalmed and preserved animal in the Palacio (I'm not a fan but it's something you should know, and for their sake, I'm not gonna mention so you'll get a surprise) 😮

    Lovely grounds and property, with two old planes in the garden and an artisanal flea market on the weekend. Worth visiting once although the attached restaurant is average. You can pay for a self tour which is okay, although there isn't much to see. Being able to walk into the old Antonov plane was very fun though! It's now a lounge available for hire for events. Service is good and the staff are friendly.

    Palacio de Memoria is a great place to chill with friends or have your event here. It's located along Roxas Blvd., and you have food catered by The Loggia and a bar by Run Rabbit Run.

    A quiet and interesting piece of history in the middle of a busy Roxas Boulevard. 2.5 old planes, 7 storey old mansion, and an open space for events and dining. Good visit for history and art enthusiasts.

    The place was well maintained and gave a glimpse of its grand past. We were lucky we had it all to ourselves (went on a weekday). Booked through their site and the reception was quite helpful in providing instructions for our self-guided tour. Their staff were pleasant, and we enjoyed our walk through the private plane parked on the Palacio de Memoria grounds, as well as the rooms and the museum.

    Delicious food, good ambience, excellent service. Price is not bad for the quality of food. Must try dishes are steak, pizza, and artichoke dip. Don't be fooled by the size -- it looks small but actually very filling. I'd eat here everyday if i could. Now my goal in life is to be a rich auntie casually eating brunch at The Loggia! 😎💃

    This was part of our itinerary for our 50th high school reunion tour. Glad that they included this place. It has beautiful grounds. It had this old plane that you can go tour inside. This was fun! Lunch was at the Loggia which served sumptuous Italian food.

    A colonial style mansion and sprawling garden with dining tables under massive canopies; a quaint Italian cafe by Margarita Fores called The Loggia, a museum of religious artifacts (tour at P200) and 2 airplanes on the mansion grounds (P100 for a quick tour inside the airplane.) Beautiful place for a nice afternoon coffee or early dinner.

    Lazy weekend in the city you can turn to nearby site for pics, food and if you are lucky even local market. We accidentally went there as they hosted small outdoor flea market. You can hunt local good there as well as have a nice walk around

    The outdoor is amazing with spacious green grass. With an entrance of Php300 you get a chance to visit the museum as well the room in the palace itself. They have various collections. I feel like I am not in Manila with this natural and huge space. We were satisfied with the Italian restaurant. Their pizza is really good and the tiramisu with a twist is also good. It's a worth a visit. The food, the history, the arts and the ambience will give you a reason to come back.

    Such palace exists at Roxas blvd. 4 story mansion with lots of Victorian and Rococo furniture. Paintings from the Romanticism, Neo-classicism and Realism era, this place is a jewel in the heart of Manila. Was invited for the Pasko sa Palacio event and was held at their gardens. The place can be booked for events on specific grounds in the palace. A must visit when you are cordially invited or when booking for an event.

    Got the opportunity to be here, because of our work anniversary. Been eyeing this place for a while now for a date with my wife, good thing we had this chance, it is a good place if you have money to spare. Basically budget wise it is not for us. The food is okay for me and a bit pricey, ambiance and stuff are a plus, photo worthy place. Parking is ample inside. During some weekends they held some bazaars and sales of local products. This is good for events, weddings, prenatal and more. Please subscribe to my YouTube channel paul abordo

    I was absolutely mesmerized by the works of art in the museum. There are different rooms which depict the architecture and lifestyle of the people who lives here before. There are enormous colourful canvas, amazing sculptures and artifacts.Another reason why I recommend going to Palacio de memoria is because they have very friendly and informative staffs. There are big parking lots, spotless bathrooms a big cafeteria and all kinds of facilities which make the place also very attractive for people who love to hangout and dine in a quite place. To sum up, I would highly recommend visiting this gorgeous museum in the heart of palacio.The works of art are definitely a must-see. But my absolutely favourite was the Airplane Museum outside the palace which is entirely amazing, Fully airconditioned and love the food by the way.

    Very well restored, preserved and maintained pre-war mansion in colonial style. Used to be a seaside property back when a big part of Manila Bay wasn’t reclaimed land. The property has a chapel, museum, and events venue. It’s a gem at the edge of Pasay & Parañaque cities. Although, our group enjoyed the place very much, an unfortunate incident happened when my 92-year old aunt lost her balance on their walkway leading to the driveway. The end of the walkway had a narrow step-up with white rocks in between the cemented step-up and driveway. It was an awkward part for my aunt’s walker or for anyone on a wheelchair. My aunt ultimately fell on the grass which scared us because just had a hip replacement. Good thing she didn’t fall on the cemented walkway. I would think that establishments like these, especially since it’s an event venue, would be handicap prepared and equipped. Upon reporting the incident to the manager, he said that they usually put a ramp on that specific spot but were not made aware that there were guests on walkers/wheelchairs coming. Do we have to call each establishment to request for this? I think this has been an ordinance in every city for ALL establishments to be handicap friendly. The staff could have been more proactive as well in bringing out that ramp the moment they saw some guests in walkers. This incident could have turned out much worse. We thank God that our aunt is ok. Meanwhile, The Loggia by Margarita Fores was a treat! The al fresco dining was perfect in this time of pandemic where eating outdoors is encouraged. Albeit the heat from the noonday sun, the place had a cool & refreshing vibe. Loved the squash flowers as an appetizer; the lamb shoulder with polenta & of course a number of pasta choices on the menu. Will definitely come back for more! 5 stars for The Loggia!!!

    Beautiful interiors that take you back to a bygone era, either in Europe or the Philippines depending on the room you're in. The stories about the place are intriguing, if not somewhat mysterious. I always used to wonder why this place was abandoned and I am quite pleased that it is now open to the public, fully-restored. Great place for intimate gatherings.

    It was a nice place to see religious art collections. Luckily there was an event today... and it was nice to watch a 1959 film restored .

    The outdoor is amazing with spacious green grass. I feel like I am not in Manila anymore with this natural and huge space. The Italian restaurant is delicious as well. Check their Facebook page for the event they would have. When I came, there was a pop up bar and restaurant. I just don't feel it's worth it to pay 300p (to see the house) and 100p (to see the plane). The garden and the restaurant are my reason to come back.

    Easy to find along Roxas Blvd coming from Naia Road. No time limit you can enjoy the place. The resto is fully booked though but we got most of the place by ourselves. The plane set up is very nice, good place to hang out.

    The event I've attended was set outdoors. Place is well-lit for the expected setting. A bit hot since there's are only few air coolers/fans. There's a big comfort room but can only accommodate one person at a time, hence a long line. There's parking spaces inside but if you're attending an event, expect it to be full. You can access the place and take photos in it, surprisingly, it's air-conditioned and the staff there knows how to take photos too. :)

    Gorgeous historical building that can be booked for private parties. Had a lovely meal (italian) at the restaurant but waited for our main dishes for nearly an hour! Must have been a bad day in the kitchen as our friends said they were excellent the week before... Still, we overcame that by enjoying the peaceful heritage oasis in all its splendor, and drank lots of booze.

    Excellent ambiance. The Italian food is above average but not spectacular. The truffle pizza was very good. But the corkage for the wine I brought was ridiculously exorbitant. Please be reasonable.

    It was a great experience! There are so many Instagramable spots in here. The accommodation is also commendable. Thank you, Palacio de Memoria. :)

  • 5/5 Belinda N. 2 years ago on Google
    This place was excellently restored in a spacious area where family and friends could get together in an al fresco restaurant (by Margarita Fores)! Always bring your cameras with you because every corner of this mansion is perfect for your next profile photo. This is also a great destination to bring your balikbayans! 👍🏽

    Overall experience was really good. Food is really tasty as well.

  • 5/5 Tiffany T. 2 years ago on Google
    The place is so serene and calming. The plus side was we had the place almost to ourselves, only 1 other table was occupied so we had a pleasant, quiet dinner.
