Witness the Perseids tonight at Seven Suites

-

MANILA, Philippines - Let the month of August bring you more than a shower of rain as Seven Suites Hotel, the only hotel-observatory in the country, welcomes the Perseid meteor shower tonight.   

“There will be plenty of meteors — about one or two every minute, or about 50 per hour. The Perseids is one of the most awaited meteor showers this year and is caused by a particular comet. This particular meteor shower comprises debris coming from the Comet Swift-Tuttle,” said Ramon Acevedo, Seven Suites’ in-house astronomer.

The “Perseid Earthgrazers” can also be observed as they approach the horizon and skim through the sky like skipping stones over water. Among the most beautiful of all meteors, they appear to be long, slow and colorful.

With the aid of the Seven Suites’ powerful 12-inch diameter telescope (the fourth most powerful in the country), guests will certainly have the best view. 

To make the experience not only entertaining but informative, too, Acevedo is also giving out some interesting “galactic” trivia during the meteor shower event.

To make the night unique, Sugar, Seven Suites’ dessert restaurant, is offering a buffet of its most popular sweet offerings.

Various booths will also be set up to make the night memorable — guests can have their aura read by an expert so they can learn more about themselves.

And for those seeking to extend their weekend at Seven Suites, the hotel is offering 20 percent off on room accommodations until tomorrow.

Seven Suites has 11 rooms where guests can relax in utter bliss. Garden Suites and Honeymoon Suites are also available for those wishing to make their stay totally special and memorable.

Seven Suites Hotel Observatory is located at Hollywood Hills Subdivision, Sumulong Highway, Antipolo City (across Valley Golf Country Club). For reservations or inquiries, call 682-0330,or 682-2076 or visit www.sevensuites.net.
