Last year, the 149-room
Richmonde Hotel Iloilo was also given the same accolade as ‘
Highly Commended’ for Best Hotel Interior Design at the 2015 Philippines Property Awards.
“Having two award-winning hotels in Iloilo Business Park is a testament of how Megaworld has alleviated the standards of hotel lifestyle in Iloilo City. This is a first-class city that deserves first-class hotels,” says Jericho P. Go, senior vice president, Megaworld.
Megaworld has spent more than P2-billion to build both hotels. Richmonde Hotel Iloilo was formally inaugurated by President Benigno S. Aquino III in September last year while Marriott Courtyard Hotel is scheduled to open early next year.
“Iloilo City is now ready to host huge local and international conventions and events because these two award-winning hotels sandwiching the Iloilo Convention Center will be able to provide the amenities and services that visitors and guests deserve. We see Iloilo City as the rising MICE destination in the country,” adds Go.
