MANILA, Philippines - Since the turn of the new millennium, Discovery Suites and its seasoned Events & Catering team have successfully orchestrated countless events. Handling corporate and social functions for the hotel’s eight function rooms has enabled the team to meet and interact with a wide range of personalities, from ultra-perfectionist secretaries to reluctant debutantes to starry-eyed newlyweds and even runaway grooms. “Our line of work exposes us to different people every single day,” relates associate director of Events & Catering Aliza “Chinky” Apostol. “No day is ever the same because we get to meet clients from all walks of life. If you are a people person, then this is a job you should seriously consider.”
While most hotels boast modern facilities and amenities equipped to handle a client’s every need, Discovery Suites offers more by putting a premium on relationships. “From day one we were immersed in a culture that prioritizes service and listening to our clients,” says catering manager Rachel Ramos. “Our bosses impressed on us that part of effective client-servicing is knowing what they really need. At the time when you make the first call, or when you have your initial meeting, clients may not necessarily know what they want at that moment.”
Discovery Suites has ready-made packages for every social or corporate occasion. The Celebrations Package is a value-laden package that incorporates the essentials of any celebration, including floral arrangements, cakes, decorations and a choice of seven themed menus for parties consisting of at least 80 persons. The very popular “Four Seasons of Love” is the theme that encapsulates Discovery Suites’ wedding packages. Soon-to-weds have a choice of four wedding reception themes inspired by the four seasons, namely La Primavera (Spring), El Verano (Summer) El Otono (Autumn ) and Invierno (Winter).
On the other hand, Discovery Suites’ eight function venues are conducive to small corporate meetings, seminars or conferences. Flexible packages incorporate meeting basics like stationery, pencils and pens, audiovisual presentation equipment, snacks and meals.
