Global hospitality entity Hilton has announced the launch of two new hotels in the Philippines on April 7, marking a significant step in expanding its service offerings in Southeast Asia.

Hilton Garden Inn Manila Quezon City and Hilton Garden Inn Cebu Mactan will introduce the acclaimed Hilton Garden Inn brand to the country, increasing Hilton’s portfolio from three to five properties.

According to Hilton’s vice president of development in Southeast Asia, Maria Ariizumi:

“The Philippines is a strong focus for Hilton, as we see the massive long term tourism potential for the country. As markets across the Philippines continue to develop, Hilton Garden Inn is the perfect product for owners and travelers, offering just the right level of comfort and service. Anchored by Metro Manila and Cebu, we are thrilled to launch Hilton Garden Inn in the country with our new owners, and we see this as just the beginning of our exciting focused service growth story in the market.”

The new hotels follow recent additions to Hilton’s regional offerings, including Hilton Garden Inn Hoi An Tra Que Village and Hilton Garden Inn Bali Nusa Dua.

With a goal to respond to the rising demand for upscale budget accommodations, Hilton is set to more than triple its focused service portfolio in Southeast Asia, aiming to increase the number of properties from 12 to 40 in the following years. Currently, Hilton manages 102 locations in Southeast Asia and plans to enhance its portfolio by over 50% soon.

Two Unique Properties

The Hilton Garden Inn Manila Quezon City will be located in the city’s Central Business District, offering easy access to a range of amenities. The hotel features 210 well-furnished rooms, an all-day dining restaurant, and over 450 square meters of versatile meeting spaces alongside leisure amenities like an outdoor pool and gym.

In contrast, the Hilton Garden Inn Cebu Mactan will introduce the brand to the historic city of Cebu, featuring 151 rooms and offering a mix of retail and entertainment options as part of a mixed-use development. It will also include an all-day restaurant and event spaces suitable for conferences and social occasions.

Sherwin Uy, Chief Executive of Primeworld Land Holdings Inc, commented:

“Cebu’s vibrant culture, stunning natural beauty and thriving economy has made it a sought-after destination for travelers from around the world. Partnering with Hilton reflects our commitment to developing Cebu’s tourism industry and elevating the guest experience through upscale focused service offerings.”

With this expansion, Hilton continues to reinforce its commitment to providing high-quality hospitality experiences in the Philippines.
