It is within walking distance if you don't have heavy luggage. Should be 5-10 minutes by cab

If you are referring to SM Megamall, the distance is not that far. They do have a free shuttle to and from Megamall and Robinsons Galleria. Just stay along the lighted and busy main streets if you decide to walk. I would not recommend you to take the back street route for your safety. I have stayed at Astoria in 2007 & 2008 and will again stay there this coming Monday for a few weeks. With respect to cleanliness and hospitality, I would rate them even higher than HI at Ortigas and Edsa. The location is about 3 blocks from the Shaw Blvd. Station of the MRT, while public transport meanwhile are aplenty a block from Astoria. Just ensure when taking a taxi, ask the driver to use the meter. If he refuses, flag another cab.
