Finding affordable hotels in Metro Manila during the Christmas and New Year’s Eve season can be a bit challenging as these are peak holiday periods. However, I can provide you with some general tips and suggestions to help you find budget-friendly options:

1. Book in Advance: Booking early can often help you secure lower rates. Try to book at least a few weeks in advance to get the best deals.

2. Use Hotel Booking Websites: Utilize popular hotel booking websites to compare prices and find affordable options.

3. Consider Alternative Accommodations: Look into guesthouses, hostels, or Airbnb for potentially lower-priced options compared to traditional hotels.

4. Stay in Less Central Areas: Consider staying in areas that are a bit farther from the main tourist spots. Prices tend to be lower in these areas, and you can easily commute to popular places using public transportation.

5. Check for Promotions and Discounts: Keep an eye out for special promotions, discounts, or package deals that hotels might offer for the holiday season.

6. Contact Hotels Directly: Sometimes, hotels may offer better rates when you book directly with them, especially if you inquire about any ongoing promotions or discounts.

7. Flexible Dates: Be flexible with your travel dates. Sometimes, staying a day or two before or after the peak dates can result in lower rates.

While I don’t have real-time access to specific prices or availability, here are some budget-friendly hotel options in Metro Manila that you can consider:
