1st phase of New World Makati Hotel renovation completed
MANILA, Philippines - New World Makati Hotel has completed the first phase of its multimillion-dollar renovation.
The 595-room property has unveiled a new lobby and lounge, an Events Gallery, first-rate function spaces for upscale events, and all-new executive club floors.
The renovation upholds and enhances the hotel’s reputation for excellence as a deluxe hotel in Makati City, the country’s financial district.
The hotel’s new spaces, designed by Singapore-based White Jacket, reflect clean lines with a thoroughly modern vibe and hints of Oriental influence.
Newly installed sculpture graces the redesigned driveway and the hotel’s lobby now features gleaming marble floors, dark wood furnishings, and strategically located bold accent pieces.
The lobby flows seamlessly into The Lounge where guests can hold informal meetings or people-watch over refreshments.
The new Events Gallery serves as a showroom for fresh banqueting facilities and services. Here, while enjoying coffee and snacks, guests can personalize their events by selecting their preferred tables and floral arrangements, customizing menus and finalizing programs.
Two premier function spaces are introduced: Gallery I, located at the lobby level, accommodates a maximum of 30 guests, and Glasshouse room on the second level is ideal for events of up to 100 attendees. Stylish events are set within these beautifully furnished spaces, with premium hardware and luxurious menus that can be prepared a la minute in the fully equipped show kitchens at each venue.
The Ballroom has also been refreshed and outfitted with state-of-the-art audio-visual systems, banquet and conference tables with leather seating and new Luzerne chinaware, Hepp silverware and Smeg or Nespresso coffee machines. Menu packages have been designed to complement the stylish surroundings.
The hotel’s top four floors have not only been redesigned, but also renamed as the Residence Club. Guests are welcomed at the 24th floor by a simple but elegant reception area with a panoramic skyline view as its backdrop.
The new Residence Club living room is illuminated with natural light with floor-to-ceiling windows, presenting guests with yet more city views.
Residence Club guestrooms and suites have been totally modernized with hardwood flooring, open closets and enhanced bathrooms.
The rooms are also appointed with new artwork, lighting, draperies, furniture as well as new bedding and signature bath linens. Wood is again used as a key design element in the corridors, giving them a quiet, elegant ambience.
To reflect the significant renovation, the hotel’s name is changed to New World Makati Hotel from New World Makati City, Manila Hotel as part of the hotel’s overall re-imaging.
New World Makati Hotel is a world-class deluxe hotel located directly opposite Greenbelt, the country’s first lifestyle and shopping center, with upscale boutiques, trendy bars and restaurants all in the heart of the Makati financial and commercial district.
The 595-room property features executive club accommodation; sophisticated dining; extensive fitness center with outdoor swimming pool, gymnasium and sauna; and 2,000 square meters of dynamic function space for meetings and conferences.
