Waterfront Hotels & Casinos: World-class Filipino Hospitality

MANILA, Philippines - The Waterfront Hotels & Casinos is proud to be identified as the country’s largest Filipino-owned hotel chain in the country. It manages first-class hotels and has presence in the key cities in the archipelago.

In Manila, it operates the Waterfront Manila Pavilion Hotel and Casino and G Hotel Manila by Waterfront; in Cebu it operates the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino and the Waterfront Airport Hotel and Casino Mactan, while in Davao it is represented by the Waterfront Insular Hotel Davao.

The Waterfront Manila Pavilion Hotel & Casino is located in the heart of Manila’s business, cultural, shopping and entertainment centers.  Then known as the Manila Hilton International and recognized as one of the pioneering hotels in the country, this glorious structure was once home to icons such as Muhammad Ali, the Jackson 5 and Matt Monroe. It offers the finest accommodations with 486 well-appointed rooms, each specifically designed to address the needs and demands of business and leisure travelers, both local and foreign.

Just recently, it unveiled its newly renovated rooms and suites.

Following months of meticulous planning, Waterfront Manila Pavilion Hotel & Casino is set to represent a new benchmark for luxury hotels and casinos in the Bay area. Fusing old Filipino elements with contemporary décor, the design of the hotel’s new rooms and suites exudes a style that captivates one’s senses.  The concept created by Sonia Santiago Olivares is a continuing contemporary adaptation that uses fresh, clear colors, making every space invigorating, welcoming, happy and festive.

For the most discerning business traveler, Waterfront Manila Pavilion Hotel offers its highly anticipated Ambassador Club, which provides the finest and most intimate form of luxury. With suites of 60 square meters in size, every distinguished guest will be welcomed by lavish dining and living areas.  The adjoining room prides itself with the Waterfront Slumber Splendor Bed, which has a memory bed topper that has no pressure points, providing extra support and maximum comfort. With this feature, rest is certainly an assurance.

This by-invitation lounge heightens the grandeur experience with its daily buffet breakfast and range of beverages during cocktail hour.

The hotel also prides itself for its calming and upscale Premier Suites. The magnitude of opulence of this sanctuary equals the prime perspective of its rather discriminating guests.  While the rooms are spacious enough to enjoy, guests may also take pleasure from its own Premier Lounge.

To those preferring as much privacy, the Executive Suites will let them discover more of the city from every corner of the hotel. The room projects edgy and elegant attributes from the living area to the modish bedroom.

At the deluxe rooms, each guest will imbibe a familiar atmosphere that is warm, trend-forward and comfortable. A more distinct rendition of it is the Deluxe Premium, which is roomier at 46 square meters. The turquoise color scheme of these rooms ascertains a calm and refreshing retreat.
