Executives now Hub a lounge in Manila

MANILA, Philippines - Now open in the center of Manila’s entertainment district is The Hub Executive Lounge, a sophisticated and elegant lounge similar to those found in cosmopolitan cities like New York, London, Paris, and Shanghai.

It’s an ideal place to meet local and foreign business guests as well as sales prospects and discuss future projects away from the office, or simply to unwind with cocktails or dinner.

The Hub Executive Lounge is at 1960 Mabini St., Malate, Manila. It is a first-class private enclave in the quiet part of Malate, where both locals and expatriates may spend off time, dine and enjoy the company of colleagues and friends, and even generate creative business ideas in a classy ambience.

The Hub stands out amid Malate’s bustling dining scene and mirrors a fresh take on ways of conducting business or unwinding after a grueling workday. It reflects the current vision of its owners, who took a holistic look at the needs of today’s harried executives, and explored ways to help them work, relax better, and enjoy their downtime. The CEOs, captains of industry, and professionals may also enlist to be part of The Hub’s Members Club for unmatched exclusivity and further enjoy a wide range of perks and privileges plus a private environment.

Recently spotted visiting The Hub were boxing champion Manny Pacquiao and wife Jinkee, businessmen, and celebrities. During the opening of the executive lounge, designer Frederick Alba showcased his fashion collection.

The Hub is also an architectural showcase. From the contemporary stone façade and steel entrance door that create visual interest, it entices you to discover what lies within the spacious stone-and-mortar building transformed into an exquisite watering hole and private meeting or event place. The Hub benefits from an accessible location in a tranquil spot in the nucleus of Ermita, Manila’s business and entertainment districts.

The Hub reinforces an atmosphere of exclusivity, comfort, and convenience, punctuated by quiet glamour and poised with exceptional service. Guests and members of The Hub are greeted by an uncluttered clean space, ceilings and walls draped in white and gray in layered and linear forms. Lighted circular mirrors that show a detail of the lounge seating area and stage adorn the walls. The other sleek, sensory interior design elements include modern lighting concepts — recessed ceiling lights and mounted sconces that sparkle unobtrusively while guests enjoy their cocktails or watch a musical performance or show.

The Hub features meeting rooms with business facilities and Internet capability, which exclusive members and guests can gain access to at the second floor, while the first floor is for guests who want to engage clients and colleagues over premium wines and liquors, and sumptuous hors d’oeuvres. There are daily fashion shows showcasing the creations of Filipino designers.

Close to major offices, shopping malls and hotels, companies requiring a venue to hold an event will find The Hub a suitable option, given its accessible location and full audio and video capabilities. There is also spacious elevated platform for fashion shows and other presentations. Clients may choose from special packages, or opt for customized food and cocktail/wine menus. Whether you intend to host a congressional reception, enjoy happy hour, hold a birthday party or other private events, The Hub offers a roomy venue for various occasions.
