Torre Venezia: A home above the busy city

MANILA, Philippines - Torre Venezia is hard to miss. An imposing high-riser along Timog Avenue in Quezon City, Torre Venezia is a hotel that offers contemporary hotel living that is built on comfort and convenience.

The latter should not be difficult to see, as Torre Venezia is near commercial and media centers. Guests who have business in the area will be pleased that it is a ride away from the country’s biggest malls and the most modern company offices.

Those in gimmick mode can just step out of Torre Venezia and be greeted by nearby restaurants and other hangouts.

Because it is along the road, transportation is never a problem. Mass transit systems such as the MRT and LRT are within arm’s length — figuratively, of course. Both local and foreign guests should have the easiest ways to go around town.

That is just the tip of the Torre iceberg, though. Within its imposing structure are accommodations that are more home than hotel. Taking pride in the “feel-at-home, lived-in” creed, Torre Venezia’s rooms are so designed to make guests enjoy a more laid-back stay.

“What we want to evoke is a sense of warmth at Torre Venezia. We imagine guests enjoying quality time together, and we provide the amenities necessary to make their stay a very pleasant one,” says Torre Venezia general manager Dominic Dorol.

Offering superior, deluxe double, and deluxe loft room (two bedrooms!) configurations, Torre Venezia furnishes each of them with individually controlled air-conditioning units, a balcony that provides an awesome view of the metropolis, and private baths.

In addition, there are cable TV, trouser press, coffee/tea makers, microwave ovens, kitchenware, and other useful gadgets for the guests, who can prepare their own meals and cook them right in their rooms. Families and friends can hold their private gatherings here and just let the good times roll.

Torre’s senior sales manager Francis Arceo David adds: “The idea is to serve as our guests’ home away from home. With the amenities that we are supplying, we want them to feel that Torre Venezia is an extension of their own home. That is why, despite the big size of the rooms, it still feels intimate.”

Guests looking for something more beyond their room’s creature comfort will be pleased to know that they can treat themselves to a relaxing massage or a dip in Torre Venecia’s swimming pool.

Just recently, the hotel opened its own state-of-the-art gym where the fitness-conscious guests can take advantage of the newly installed equipment.

“Our friendly staff is always ready to accommodate and assist guest requests. They are only too happy to help out with airport and city transfers, concierge, housekeeping, laundry, maintenance support, wake-up calls, and security,” Dorol says.

He also declares that Torre Venezia continues to add more exciting facilities and amenities to the lineup, the better for guests to enjoy their stay.

All things considered, Torre Venezia is the complete package. A cozy home above the bustling city life is just the perfect place to contain oneself in.
