MAKATI CITY — Tucked discreetly within the lobby of The Peninsula Manila, Salon de Ning offers a transportive nightlife experience that blends old-world glamour with a distinctly Filipino sense of fun. Inspired by the fictional Shanghai socialite Madame Ning, the lounge evokes the opulent, decadent atmosphere of a 1930s seaside mansion with its eclectic décor, antique furnishings, and whimsical objets d’art. Behind the hotel’s main lobby elevators, a dark door opens into a world where every corner tells a story, from the grand portrait of its namesake to striking details like upside-down parasol chandeliers and carved carabao horn door handles.
A Multi-Sensory Experience with Music, Cocktails, and Themed Rooms
Once inside, guests are greeted by a live band and a vibrant yet sophisticated energy that encourages dancing, conversation, or simply soaking in the surroundings. The signature cocktail, the Ning Sling, is a must-try, and the lounge regularly hosts special events like the acclaimed Medium Rare immersive party, which marries gastronomy with underground and neoclassical music. For a more exclusive experience, guests can book one of four opulent themed private rooms: the Boxing Room, the Zeppelin Room, the Shoe Room, or the Shanghai Room, each offering a unique setting for intimate gatherings.
